Rumors: 2024-25 Season

[worm]

What’s the angle for the Flames? How would we get him cheaper than what we could flip him for?

Clearing cap space?

Less cap hit later in the season.

But if we are applying logic why would we want him?

because we need to be somewhat competitive next year

Max allegedly wants to return to close out his career.

For a 1-yr digestible deal, assuming his injury is healed without having had negative impact to his speed, Pacioretty would look good next to Suzuki & Caufield IMO

Hughes clearly said that he would never do a deal with a short term optic. We should organically be more competitive next year, just from youth development and curtailing injuries.

His ads for Presti homes are still running regularly on TSN690 so there's that.

Clayton Kelley’s father apparently tweeted his sons not going back to Yotes then deleted the tweet

Hypothetical: would you flip 5OA for Keller? the kid not old man..

Depending on who’s avail at #5, I’d give it a think

Nope

No way. He's a winger first of all, he isn't particularly big and doesn't score a ton either. He'd be a decent pick-up in a trade but not for the 5th overall pick.

39G & 86 pts

39G & 86 pts

When there is trouble in paradise do not pay retail. Panthers pick plus Harris/Ylonen type prospect.

Now if they take Gallagher back in the deal I could be talked into our first next year.

39G & 86 pts

This year.

Now let's do 2017 - 2022.

(2017-18) 23-42-65
(2018-19) 14-33-47
(2019-20) 17-27-44
(2020-21) 14-21-35 (56 games)
(2021-22) 28-35-63

Not worth the 5th overall pick.

Top 15 protected

top 10 is fine. Keller has worth.

The Leafs are stuck with Tavares and Gallagher is even tougher to move, despite the lower cost. Unless Bergy gets the GM job in Pittsburgh there isn't another NHL executive that stupid who we could victimize.

Same.

 

[Habsy]

That's why you pay a team. I know. Difficult concept.

By “a ton” he means 150 points. Keller is not old and the odds that we draft a more productive player at 5, if not Michkov, are less than fifty percent IMO.

11 at 2.5 -3 mil retention is a trade to be made

AlmostKansasCity Scouts have the 6 and 12 picks already. Not sure how much they would value #5.
