NHL rumours 2

WPG: 1st Round Pick 2021, 3rd Round Pick 2022 (CLB)
BUF: Hall (50% retained)

04 Mar 2021 23:25:56
That would be an interesting rental for the Jets to consider but they would be better off using that offer as part of a package to try and get a big, physical 1/ 2 d-man.

05 Mar 2021 00:33:33
Easy no from Winnipeg. The Jets have zero need for Hall as a rental and would be better off spending the assets on a top pairing RHD, if they are going to spend them.

05 Mar 2021 00:42:32
Hall isn't a defenseman.

04 Mar 2021 19:18:05
Buf trades Jack Eichel to MTL for:

Kotkaniemi
1st
2nd
3rd
Tatar
Danault

Buf retains 4M in the first season only of this deal.

BUF gets a huge hall that is sellable to the Sabres' fan base. They also get first crack a resigning Tatar and Danault if they fit.

MTL gets a #1 centre NOW, and would still have 11 picks for June's draft. They also have roughly 1M left to add at the deadline.

04 Mar 2021 21:26:07
How is this a huge haul.

04 Mar 2021 22:12:38
You can't retain just one year (unless that's changed recently)

04 Mar 2021 23:49:20
So why would Buffalo trade Eichel for KK and basically a 1st as lower picks perdentage of players don’t make it.
Both other forwards can walk for nothing at end of year.

Your obviously a Mtl fan, but at least bring an offer that’s not laughable.

And you can’t retain salary for only part of the contract!

05 Mar 2021 00:55:17
Clearly you know very little as you can’t retAin on 1 year also this is awful for Buffalo. Tatar and Danault hold zero value to a rebuilding team.

2nd Round Pick 2021


Thoughts ?

04 Mar 2021 17:55:34
Tor: Kerfoot 2nd
Njd: palmieri (1mil retained)

Devils get a useful player with term and a pick leafs get a top 6 winger rental

04 Mar 2021 21:23:41
Blake Coleman got a 1st plus a good young prospect in Nolan Foote, I would expect that would be a similar cost especially when dumping Kerfoot.

05 Mar 2021 09:43:30
Renidrag the Coleman trade was a massive overpayment for him and not a good template to base your possible return for any player on.

05 Mar 2021 14:11:46
Coleman wasn’t a pending UFA and had a cheap cap hit while bringing more then just talent. Tampa overpayed for a player that fits their cap structure perfectly.

04 Mar 2021 17:48:22
San Jose Sharks:

Marc Edouard Vlasic (50%)

4th Round 2022


Montreal Canadiens:

Victor Mete.

04 Mar 2021 15:16:58
Habs: S. Reinhart

Sabres: Danault, Mete, and Habs 2021 first rounder.

05 Mar 2021 00:04:15
So Buffalo gives up Reinhardt for a bottom pair dman, at best on a good team, and a UFA to be that hasn’t scored yet this year, and a first.

Maybe Buffalo should trade a 2nd (closer to Mtl first) Staal and Montour to Mtl for Gallagher.

Neal brings the forst packages value down significantly, it’d cost at least a 1st to dump him, and Chiasson doesn't have much value, so bringing back Rakell and Lindholm for Jones and Khaira is way way too little.

The Larsson trade seems fair, could see Edmonton not adding a pick there but it could work.

Kuemper trade is Koskinen and Kahun for Kuemper, Kuemper is still a pretty decent goalie, Koskinen is too overpaid to dump him for an upgrade at just the cost of Kahun and no real valuable picks, so no from ARZ.

The Carolina trade is probably a little off of Hamilton considering he's a UFA in 2022 so he has term, and I’d say he's worth more than Muzz who got back Durzi/ Grundstrom/ 1st (which is about equal to Bear/ 2nd/ 1st), so maybe a small add, but not too bad, i just don't see Carolina trading him with how good they've been.

04 Mar 2021 15:47:57
Jones and a first probably wouldn’t get Lindholm and the rest of that doesn’t get you Rakell. No from Arizona. And no way I’d trade Bear plus a first for Hamilton.

04 Mar 2021 23:59:18
If your trading Neal this year it will cost you 2 firsts, or a first and top prospect!
Now you want Lindholm and Rakell, for a maybe nhl dman in Jones, 2 players that passed through waivers this year?

If you cheered for Ana you would probably think that for Lindholm and Rakell Ana should get 97 and 29?

That’s about same deal,

04 Mar 2021 13:11:05
Habs: Barkov


Panthers: KK, Caufield, Harris, and Habs 2021 first rounder.

04 Mar 2021 14:46:00
Florida isn't trading there Top Centre, Florida also has a good team they will be probably adding to there currant roster not subtracting.

04 Mar 2021 16:28:06
Barkov is a top 5 center in the nhl and even a debate could be made for top 3. He’s ahead of Eichel, Mattews and a debate could be made for Mackinon as well.

04 Mar 2021 17:40:11
That’s a hot take LMAO he wasn’t even a PPG player last year first person who I’ve ever heard say that clearly you haven’t watched much hockey while he is like Towes a very competent 2 way player he is a very middling skater and doesn’t have much of a scoring touch nor any elite offensive tools aside from elite hands and creativity.

04 Mar 2021 19:08:15
JAndersonBPF he’s top 8 for sure, but definitely not above Matthews (who’s the best goal scorer since Ovi) . Barkov and Eichel are close; I’d personally take Barkov but I wouldn’t argue If someone preferred Eichel.
