Trades & Free Agency Thread: 2024-2025 - Trade Deadline Approaches

[Fogelhund]

Sign me up, I like it.

What do you think those deals would look like?

Probably a painful amount. 2026 1st and 2025 2nd gone... probably Minten as well as the other names listed... it's above my pay grade anyway.

Not aimed at you, but others....

Krebs and Ristolainen would be my two targets this TDL.

Knies - Matthews - Domi
McMann - Tavares - Marner
Pacioretty - Krebs - Nylander
Dewar - Kampf - Lorentz

McCabe - Tanev
Rielly - Ristolainen
Ekman Larsson - Myers

Thought this year would be a write off given the core 4 would be sucking up 53% of the cap but then seeing how well they were keeping the puck out of their net, I thought they have a shot with the East up for grabs but I am only in for tweaks. I'd be satisfied with a Kadri type #2/#3C and D'Angelo (I'd give him a shot). Won't cost much and we keep some bullets for a better run next year.

How much on top of Minten would a guy like Jack McBain cost?

You could likely get him for just picks without involving Minten.

Edit: he's a bit younger than I thought. But still, I'd be reluctant to give up Minten here

I think McBain has the chance to be Lowry 2.0 and a legit 3C long term for us, not just a quick rental.

Minten might be a 3C, but safely a 4C

The age and speed that McBain has along with actually being a bit of an asshole are something I would want to pay for.
