NHL Discussion (Other than Jets)

[Pigskin]

O'Reilly is have a tough year. But, I think that's going to change.

[Jockitch]

Shocked at what the Bolts gave up for Tanner Jeannot from the Preds, who gave up Cal Foote

Cal Foote ? $850,000
2023 3rd round pick (TBL)
2023 4th round pick (TBL)
2023 5th round pick (TBL)
2024 2nd round pick (TBL)
2025 1st round pick (TBL) [Conditional]*
*Conditions: Top 10 protected

Plus   can't understand how the Sharks received such a jumble of little concern for Meier from the Devils

This is one of the very few trades from Tampa that I absolutely hate. Not because of the player but the return. They could have done this for two less picks and used those two picks to get another player.

And I get the optics of it pickwise, doesn't mean I have to like it.

Weird trades aplenty lately.

Kane to the Rangers for a couple of picks. They're loading up.

Also announced yesterday: Barry Trotz will be the new GM in Nashville after the season once David Poile steps down.

[Jockitch]

Toronto has been crazy busy and just minutes ago they shed salary by sending Engvall to the Caps, who I hoped Jets might get cheap
Plus they just picked up dman Schenn from the Canucks and dman Gustaffson from the Caps for the above   
The returns were 3rd draft spots

The Eastern Conference playoffs are going to be bonkers.

Kane or Chychrun would have looked good here...

[blue_gold_84]

The Jets were in on Chychrun but part of the proposed trade involved the Coyotes retaining part of his salary as well as a notable prospect going to the desert.

Kane would've never entertained coming here, even if for a short stint.

[Pigskin]

Pastrnak 8 years, $90M.

[Jockitch]

Supposedly Dallas will get Domi trade done

Also as of 8:20 Winnipeg time, only Flames, Kraken and Panthers have not made a trade in the past two weeks  Heard on OB tonight

[Pigskin]

I really like what the Oilers and Leaf's have done. Oilers have better goaltending at this point. Ottawa made a few good moves for a team still out of the play-offs. The Oilers might go far in the weaker West division. Leaf's are going to have a tough time.

Wild added some nice pieces.

[Jockitch]

Not aware that Oilers improved on their so-so goal tending.
Course Ekholm helps their defensive structure big time

Impressed with Leafs, K. Dubas, juggling his Cap to really change the lineup

[Pigskin]

I think the Islanders did a great job trading for and signing Bo Horvat. $8.5M is a fair number for both sides.
