Rumor: Carolina's Jake Bean available for a 2nd

[Lempo]

#20 + #116 for Bean + #59

So Bean equals to 77OA. Early 3rd.

This is how we get into these messes.

 

[Lempo]

Detroit will trade NYR's second (48 OA) for Bean.

You're planning to become the Hurricanes now that we are the Panthers?

 

[CupInSIX]

Is he Mr. Beans son ?

Wouldn't he have to be?

 

[Steeler23]

2nd is too much, Seattle didn't take him for free. I would give a 4th.

They prefered Morgan Geekie. Not the same thing.

Next step will be signing Hamilton on the 28th.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

[That Habs Fan]

Habs better be heavily involved in these talks...hopefully the Aho offer didn't sour that relationship too much.

Well, with Mrazek and Bernier, we are becoming the RedWings. Can we now have Larkin for a 3rd?

Carolina Sphinx.

 

[Roomba With a Bauer]

Carolina Sphinx.

Carolina Red Panthercanes.

 

[Extra Texture]

Arizona, step right up...​

 

[Bouboumaster]

Yeah I doubt they trade with us after the whole Aho contract....

Cheap ass Dundon would probably accept 2 x 2nd?

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Good thing Karmanos and Illich aren't around, they'd be furious about the Ned move and teams even considering Bean to Detroit

 

[GermanSpitfire]

@PierreDorian

Get on it

 

[Michoulicious]

Struble and Norlinder are natural RDs are they not?

Nope.

First 2nd rnd draft pick gets him?
Wouldn't mind seeing native son Jake in Calgary Flames colors.

Hey, Waddell, we just got off the phone with you... We're here for ya again.

Arizona, step right up...​

I guess that seems like a good fit now that Arizona has 8 second round picks in the next 2 drafts and just traded out a top-4 LHD.

A 2nd is probably pretty fair value for Bean.

He's 23 years old, 5 years post draft and has developed fairly well to this point, but not a slam dunk by any means. Played a very sheltered bottom pairing role in Carolina with some PP time and struggled at times on the defensive end of things, but also showed some flashes. He's likely not a finished product though, but with Slavin and Skjei holding down the LHD side for the foreseeable future, he's not got a great path in Carolina.

Brind'Amour never really was confident enough in him to give him a bigger role, but there wasn't a bigger role to be had.

I can see a team wanting to give up a 2nd for him, but probably not give up a 1st.

If he can't lap Skjei, I am concerned. That guy is about as smart as the flat side of a hammer.

Skjei played a much different role in Carolina than NYR. He wasn't asked to be "the guy". IMO, Ranger's got enamored by his rookie season where he was exceedingly sheltered and thought he could be a all situation 2-way defenseman.

Canes played him with Pesce in a more shut-down role and he kept his game simple and didn't try to do that much, and frankly was very successful in that role. He still had a few brain farts, but overall, he was very solid as a 2nd pairing defenseman with Pesce.

I still think he's a bit overpaid, but if Skjei can continue to play the same role he played last year, I'll be very happy with him.

 

[Knies iT]

I've watched Bean quite a bit in the AHL against the Marlies and was never impressed. Same with Fleury pre-trade.

CAR would do well to ship him for a 2nd.

 

[Anaheim4ever]

They gonna use that 2nd in a trade for Gibson ?

 

[Rubi]

Is he Mr. Beans son ?

LOL... actually he's the son of Calgary Flames /Calgary Sports and Entertainment Corporation President and CEO, John Bean.
Little Jake has connections.

 

[Saucechucker99]

Would love if the Stars grabbed him for that. I would even add to get him.

 

[japhi]

If MTL doesn’t snag that deal i’m out

And if he outplays Romanov you good with that?

I'm glad you like him, but if Bean can't pass him I would say take the second rounder and look for someone who can.
