Rumor: Canes Acquire Jake Guentzel

Nikishin IMO will be a superstar by year two under no circumstances would I trade him! Keep in mind Morrow isn't even a signed prospect....

 

Also I wouldn't call Vegas getting Jack Eichel not getting a superstar l.

Eichel wasn’t a rental, he was in the early part of an 8 year contract and was acquired at the beginning of the season.

Trading Morrow for a rental only makes sense if he told Carolina he won’t sign with them. Which I don’t know why he would because he’d have a great shot at being on the bottom pair next year.

No guarantee he's gonna be a rental though that no permission given just means Pitt hadn't allowed contract discussions yet at that time..... 

 

I like Morrow it wouldn't shock me if he did say that being anther Harvard guy... either way if we win a cup it's a win no matter what they traded.... I'm all aboard

Right but I don’t think you can make deals off of if’s. I’d want an extension before giving up a 50 point winger, an offensive-defensive prospect with top four potential, and an early round draft pick.

We either need to win the Cup or Guentzel needs to re-sign in order for a trade that consists of Bunting, Morrow, and a pick to be considered successful.

Losing in the second round and then losing Guentzel would be a disaster.

Details starting to come in:

Carolina Receives: Jake Guentzel (un-signed)

Pittsburgh Received: Michael Bunting, Scott Morrow, a 2nd round pick, and an unnamed prospect

Absolute steal from Wads.  We got to keep our big gun prospects that haven’t done anything yet for us. Great job!!

That is way too much. We are getting fleeced if that’s true.

Some speculation that Jackson Blake is also in the deal which I’d hate. He was one of the best college hockey players this year.

Who cares at this point. We got an elite player that can score goals and help us win a cup. It’s about Gotdamn time we did it. Let’s go win us a cup with a proven player vs stashing unproven hope for the future.

Hahahahahahahah. No way dude!   We owned this trade. We haven’t had a 100 point guy since 2006 Eric Staal. We just got one.  Time to ride! 

Guentzel is not a 100 point player. I don’t even think he’s an 80 point player on the Canes. Probably 60’s-70’s. And we never see that if he doesn’t re-sign.

    • I don't get the Hunter hate. Just imagine his ceiling if he stopped trying to be this 2way freak and focused on one side of the ball 
    • 100%.  You have to play the cards that are dealt.  Not the cards you wish were dealt.
    • I'd say its definitely going to be addressed this off-season.  We went into the last draft with a roster of RBs including:  Chubba, Blackshear, and Miles Sanders. We picked Jonathan Brooks in the second and still signed Rashaad Penny afterwards.  Fast forward....One turned into a top 10 back, 1 is injured/out for most if not all the '25 season, 1 retired, 1 will either take a huge paycut or be cut, and the last is a restricted free agent. We brought in Mike Boone as well. Add him to the free agent list also.  We need a physical option.    Which qualifies:  Ashton Jeanty(Boise St): Overall ranked Top 10. Almost 2k yards after contact, 28 tds. Would take our first rounder. My money would be on an NFC East team selecting him. (97.2 PFF run grade) - 121 forced missed tackles.  Omarion Hampton(UNC): Ranked everywhere from 20 - 59 overall. Consensus #2 back after Jeanty. He'll be a second rounder. 1,222 Yards after contact w/ 15 tds.  (90.5 PFF run grade) - 72 forced missed Tackles Kaleb Johnson(Iowa): Ranked from 38 - 69 depending on which media outlet you prefer but generally #3. 2nd/3rd possibly. 1,060 Yards after contact w/ 21 tds.(86.7 PFF run grade)- 66 forced missed tackles Cam Skattebo: Ranked from the 50's - 104. Every mock I do he ends up BPA at some point. 969 Yards after contact w/ 17 tds(92 PFF Run Grade). Probably the best receiving back of the group. 81 forced missed tackles.  If the '24 and '25 draft classes were combined, IMO the rankings would be, in order: Jeanty, Hampton, Brooks, Johnson, Skattebo. I wouldn't take one high but I'd take one for Chubba and Brooks insurance.
