GDT: Trade Deadline week around the league

[Unsustainable]

 

[WreckingCrew]

We all know which of these 2 is more likely the target of this FO...and which SHOULD be their target...

 

[CandyCanes]

Lindholm would be such a huge get. The perfect acquisition for this team if they can pull it off.

 

[Stickpucker]

Who has the space to add Schmaltz or Crouse that wouldn't just wait for the offseason?

Somehow Boston is going to end up with Crouse at 50% retained for like Mike Reilly + 2027-2029 1st round picks

Hall just caught the -itis to free up 6m. I heard it's contagious....

Ever since the Kucherov perfect timing LTIR miracle cure this seems to magically happen every year now. I maintain that any player that's going to be allowed to play in the playoffs should count towards the cap after TDL.

 

[Stickpucker]

LTIR old man Staal to rest him for the POs, he looks tired lately, free up the cap space we need to get Lindholm and Vajamkajkaa in case one of our goalies dies.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

ha ha. Throw out Lindholm's name to get hopes up again? Not falling for it.

 

[Svechhammer]

Lindholm would ease a lot of worries about this week

Im being aggressively misled.

Don't bite that lure.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Good ole Alex O who said he would pick Raanta to start in the playoffs over Andersen

I mean are we trading Fast and Coghlan in this deal. I just can’t imagine Calgary retaining next year.

Or do we start KK for Lindholm rumors

[Borsig]

Doesn't lindhom hate us lol. Can't think he'd ever re sign

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Yeah, there's no way Lindy is coming back. That would be hilarious, but it ain't happening.

 

[dogbazinho]

 

[Big Daddy Cane]

Lets’s wait until the audio drops. Friedman is very careful with his wording. The recaps are hit and miss at capturing that.

 

[DaveG]

Ever since the Kucherov perfect timing LTIR miracle cure this seems to magically happen every year now. I maintain that any player that's going to be allowed to play in the playoffs should count towards the cap after TDL.

I'd go any player that's on LTIR at the start of the playoffs is ineligible to participate until the Conference Finals at the earliest.

Also since other teams are pulling this bullshit, time to LTIR Kotkaniemi until the first round of the playoffs because... f*** it, let's go with acute dyspepsia.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

I was done with refreshing. Everyone at work thinking im worthless because im looking at my phone constantly. At least its a different reason to find me useless

If we make it to a series against Boston, and that's a big if, we're going to have our hands full, because teams who play like Boston is gearing up to play have absolutely wrecked us mentally in the playoffs throughout this current run.

I am curious re: how confidence will play a part in the remainder of the season and the playoffs. Boomer mentioned how the Canes, lack of and now underwhelming, moves displayed a certain kind of "come at me" confidence. I can see it possibly carrying them through a series. However, when every team in front of them restocks the cupboards in one way or another?

The recent two losses are also probably factoring into the collective disappointment. I guess we'll get a playoff preview snapshot over the next few weeks with our challenging March schedule.

Chryrun view for ottawa (I still don’t understand why Canes didn’t make a move here):

Dorion's trade for Chychrun isn't just a home run for the Senators — it's a grand slam

Pierre Dorion waited and waited for the price to drop, and his patience paid off as the Senators landed big-fish Jakob Chychrun without giving up a player.

From what was being reported, Canes and Caps were interested in Chychrun, but felt the price was too high. When they (and others) walked away, Arizona panicked and lowered the price, which brought Ottawa back into the mix.
