To be fair maybe he thinks we're too deep for him to get regular time and wants to go somewhere with thinner defence depth.
For sure. Being a 7th defenseman or less in your prime years is not a way to cashing in on your career. I like Logan Stanley. I like Dylan Samberg and Ville Heinola's ceilings more. In terms of asset management this would be trading from a position of strength for Chevy.

other than schmaltz or sanheim, & i guess Domi, what are some other intriguing options left at this point? boeser seems like he will land in either MIN or PIT.

i'm sure there maybe another team or 2 that will make decisions to sell tmrw as well (ie: CGY).

When I see some of the traded players and some of the prices, it is clear to me that Chevy is not all in. Bjugstad AND Cam Dineen for a 3rd? 50% retention on Bjugstad?

We were capable of making a better offer for Meier. I understand not doing so since he would have been a pure rental - but with a year of UFA, we could have recovered some of the cost after the season.

We were capable of making a better offer for Chychrun. He is under contract for 2 more years on a team friendly deal. Maybe durability was a determining factor, but if Chevy was all in that wouldn't have stopped him.

Neither bragging nor complaining at this point. Just how it looks to me.

Yeah, I can understand his dilemma. I guess the information that we are missing is what have Helle and Scheifele told him. If they have indicated they are going to test FA then does it make sense to go all in? If they have indicated they like the direction under Bones and are open then I can see a bit more aggression on Friday by him.

I would take that exactly the opposite way. If they are leaving, this is last chance. If not and considering the team's performance lately, it might be time to keep your powder dry.

I think Chevy has one more rabbit to pull outta the hat. A trade that will come out of no where.

Can't judge a trade deadline until everything is said and done. Chevy is low on draft capital for trades, and I really don't think he wants to put his 1st round picks in play this year or next, considering the uncertainty going into next season. The exception would be a good young player with term. Right now he is likely on the phone with some fellow GM, trying to convince them that Stanley still hold the value of his draft position.

I think the biggest problem you would have is trying to move out Schimdt or Pionk because that's the only way you can make that trade if Parayko waves his NTC.

That too - but we have 4.6 right now. Would only need to clear 1.9 for this season. It would be easier to move Dillon. I'm not sure that would be a good idea though and still need to move Pionk or Schmidt before next season.

It's quite possible that Chevy just sits the rest of this deadline out, I still think that he is working on a deal or two but that the compensation is a sticking point today, tomorrow it might swing back towards what he wants to pay

ltir covered by insurance gives them the ability to trade other contracts cough schmaltz cough and still be at the floor

Sure if Voracek is insured. Who pays the premiums for that insurance after a trade? I assume that would fall to AZ.

I had forgotten that Voracek was on LTIR. Is it expected to apply next year too?
