Speculation: The 2022 NHL Trade Deadline Thread | March 21st | 3:00 pm ET

[HoseEmDown]

I feel like Bolts Jolts has no clue what they're talking about sometimes. Nash cleared waivers, he will stay there and not count against the cap. They said yesterday BriseBois couldn't afford to give Joseph his qualifying offer, his QO is 813k, you telling me he couldn't offer him that? He won't sign for that and could have been traded later but to say he couldn't afford his QO is just blatantly wrong.

Paul and Hagel have a few weeks to figure things out. Let's hope it works. Our competition is absolutely crazy this year. Last year no one did anything to have me worried we couldn't repeat. Oh well.... LFG!

Kind of surprised we didn't get a depth defenseman. There is a possibility of Claesson or Raddysh playing in the playoffs, even if it's only for 6 minutes.

I would bring up Day to fill this role. He has been the steadiest defenseman on the Crunch blueline and has earned a long look in Tampa Bay at the end of the season and beyond. Not afraid to get his nose dirty to protect his goalie either. Raddysh was invisible for the first four months and Claesson is more defensive style first than Day.

Happy to hear Day is having some success in Syracuse. I imagine Cooper will want to test him out before the end of the year to consider playing him in the playoffs.

Would absolutely want to avoid playing Claesson/Raddysh.

Nobody wants to work.

 

[TheDaysOf 04]

Frank Seravalli's Top 50 trade deadline targets:

1. Claude Giroux
2. Hampus Lindholm
3. Mark Giordano
4. Marc-Andre Fleury
5. Rickard Rakell
6. Brandon Hagel
7. Nick Paul
8. Tyler Bertuzzi
9. Nick Leddy
10. Jakob Chychrun

We got 2 of the best, but also Giroux, Lindholm, Giordano, and Rakell go to Eastern Conf. teams.

[TheDaysOf 04]

I saw the Oilers picked up Kulak and Brassard, but kind of a quiet deadline for them. Like Toronto, they're a team under some pressure to advance this year in the playoffs.

 

[Felonious Python]

seems we're done if he's doing media.

[Felonious Python]

the most trades, but what deal involved the biggest name? Fleury?

Weekes is texting to see if that background is available to break a trade next time.

That's crazy. This could get interesting.

If this happens does it put Vegas in cap trouble?

 

[These Are The Days]

Vegas is so f***ing stupid. Wow

It seems so. Dadonov might decide to waive, although it'd be most interesting if he didn't (and I don't think the PA would want him to waive now on principle).

They might be able to alter the deal without Dadonov, but including more draft picks. John Moore also got caught up in this. Traded a few days ago from Boston to Anaheim, and now unsure of where he's going.

The league approved the deal, which they shouldn't have, so the NHL isn't completely without fault here. If the queue takes so long to clear, and they still allow a bad deal through, what are they doing?

Elliote Friedman was on the Jeff Marek show talking about it: Marek Friedman: Making Sense of the Dadonov Situation

 

[Felonious Python]

Vegas is so f***ing stupid. Wow

It seems like Ottawa screwed up. They didn't give the details, or the correct details, of the modified no-trade to Vegas.

The league doesn't register them.
