So what I’m reading seems to indicate Tarasenko signing wasn’t a done deal yesterday. If it was we would have had confirmation by now or at least other sources confirming. Talk of Ottawa if they can move deBrinkat. Could be what’s slowing down his decision. Supposedly agent was talking to six teams at one point.

A “sounds like” tweet is not a confirmation. I’m waiting for that.

Wouldn’t be the first time we’ve been bailed on, Marchment last year comes to mind.

He counts according to CapFriendly. His cap is listed and they dropped Canes available cap from ~2.8 mil to a little over $2 mil to account for his cap hit. I’m no expert just what I saw there.

Yeah, that will get updated and he won't count against the NHL cap.  Much like the other AHLers we have signed.

The noise on Karlsson trade on Twitter has died down drastically. Like his trade talk fell into a black hole.

Because as of the other day, SJ was only willing to retain 20% of EK's contract. The only two teams interested seriously are Pitt and Carolina. Both need SJ to retain more plus add a third team to retain even more.

Looks like Pesce may be traded this weekend. Brett’s dad is saying his goodbye’s on Twitter.

First dominoe in the EK trade and Tarasenko signings. If both still happen. 

Nashville is probably the landing spot based on rumors. With the canes getting back a first round pick to include in the EK trade. 

 

Drury plus first for EK at 35% retained.  Maybe a 2nd team in it to get it down even more.

I’ve seen Nashville mentioned and a possible return being Fabbro and a first. Then both are flipped along with our first rounder to San Jose.

Nashville will probably allow him to still live in the triangle for at least part of the year.

i really don't know ho to feel about EK. i get he's a 100 point defender, but does the blue line not get worse with him and no pesce.

Probably but not a whole lot. 

Slavin - Burns

Orlov - EK

Skjei/Chatfield - TDA (maybe no TDA if they pull of EK) unless Skjei agrees to be moved. 🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️🤷‍♂️

I don’t want to move either Pesce or Skjei. People are down on them but their defense is ungodly most nights. We don’t need an offensive D line cause that’s all we could get. 
 

People also forget we play man defense. Too many new people too it are going to cause major issues.

      Why I Believe That We Will Trade Down

      By Martin · Posted

      I complete disagree. Who is available is extremely relevant. If you have a couple of players you would be happy with and you can still get them if you trade back, you should do that in a heartbeat. Being afraid that people will lowball you next year is an odd stance. Then you just say no next year, problem solved. In this particular draft you can get a very good player at 46. But to each their own.

      I don't think so.  Watson really screwed them up.  I see something happening, but do not know what.  Cousins could be had in a trade--but they liked Flacco when he played there.  If it were me, I would not spend the #2 pick on Sanders.  I would go after a tier 2 qb because I think Will Howard is going to start in the NFL soon, and I think Ewers was rated very high at the beginning of the year--he knows adversity and he beat out a Manning while taking Texas to 2 playoff appearances.  I am not good at picking QBs, but I think Howard's run pass option and his accuracy is going to help someone.  Stay in Ohio and play for the Browns behind Flacco--

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      By MHS831 · Posted

      After Cam at #1, there are three or four elite players and there could be a trade--If I am the Giants and I am needed a winning season badly and I have several needs, I might trade out and pick up mid first and an extra second rounder, including a QB--while nobody is going to move up to #3 for Sanders, they might for Carter or Hunter.  If the Giants then move back, Sanders could still be in play.  That could be the trade in the top 3.  New England wants Campbell and I get that; Jacksonville at #5 could move back if someone wants Graham or Jeanty.  But barring some trade, the top 4 are probably locked in. So it could be 2 hours into the draft before we get any surprises. Nice list, by the way--you nailed it.
