One day next week
Can you point me to what you're referencing? I took a quick look and don't see it.
Never mind, found it: Waived: - Jori Lehtera
Not only that he was waived but why he was waived.

He can still be moved potentially to a team like Seattle as well when it comes down to it. I'm of the camp at this point that we won't be a cup contender until we have proven quality goaltending. If we risk unproven goalies being the guy I feel like we are throwing the next 2 years away. Quick has a 2.23 GAA and .922 SV% in his career in the playoffs. All at a lesser cap hit than Bob. This sounds like a win win for the next 2 years and we'll deal with the rest when it comes to it.
Panarin could make the difference between winning and losing the Cup for a legit contender. He is probably one of the most dynamics players to ever go on the market at the trade deadline. We should truly expect a legit haul for him from the Cup Contender who wants to rent him.

I would. While I like him, Kukan has been fighting it the past handful of games.anyone else like to see a trade within the organization
Kukan back to Cleveland for Clendening
I thought Kukan played well when he played for Murray January 12th, the OT win in DC
but his last 2 games have been just terrible.
Clendening looked pretty good in pre-season, I'd like to see him get a shot if Murray
is out any more

Defense first, look at what Torts has turned Harrington into, guy is pretty solid in his own zone. Kukan got used all night in the d zone and it was blatantly obvious every time he was on the ice. Our D core is pretty good when Murray is in there and the team is playing with confidence.Clendening may have looked good in the preseason, but he looked completely lost in the few regular season games he played. He got beaten like a rented mule on one play in particular (I want to say against Florida, may be wrong). I think he's a classic 'tweener.
Kukan struggled a bit defensively last night, but it's hard to coach his skating and skill with the puck. He picked up two assists.
Apparently the price for Hayes is a 1st + A prospect + young roster player. Ouch.
Of course that should also mean Bread's value is sky high.
Because some fans are disgruntled with Turris and singled him out for poor playoff performances of the team in general.Apparently the price for Hayes is a 1st + A prospect + young roster player. Ouch.

@Viqsi Why are the Preds looking for a 2C when they have Joey and Turris (returning soon right?)?

Give up assets to get the guy we gave up assets to get rid of? I'll pass. Karlsson is better than he was when he left, but I'm still not sure if he's done coming back to Earth yet, so I'd rather see what else is available.Wonder what Vegas would want in addition to Panarin to get Karlsson back. Wild Bill has come back down to earth and looks like a 50 point guy. I think he would still look great on our 2nd line center and has good relationships with the team and coaches.
Vegas obviously values Karlsson's center play but maybe could view Panarin as key to making the Finals again. Add a good pick or prospect for when Panarin goes to FA. It may be worth the gamble to "sell high" on him if the Golden Knights are sold on their center prospects and Stastny recovering.

Good read from Custance (Athletic) on what makes Panarin the rare rental commodity and what he views as the top trade destinations:
“If you’re a GM, you want as much assurance as possible that a payoff is coming, that a player will fit. Some general managers hedge their bets by making their moves early and allowing time to be part of the equation.
In the rare case, the type of player can be its own form of certainty. The player is so good, plays a brand of hockey that is so conducive to success that you’re lowering your risk considerably be making him the target.
Artemi Panarin is one of those players.
“His advantage, and the reason why that’s a pretty good bet, is because he has a way that elevates other people,” said one coach of Panarin. “The issue that you run into with players who struggle with new situations is that they’re more reliant on the chemistry they’re going to have with whomever they’re going to play with. In the NHL, situation is very important for players. Not many players can outperform their situation. With Panarin, he can.”
From the perspective of a potential teammate or someone who has to defend Panarin, his varied skillset is what makes him so dangerous.”
His top 5 were Preds, Leafs, Bruins, Flames, Islanders.
On one hand it seems like a typical Jackets move. When they need to make a move they tend to go back to guys they know. Not a bad thing, just they tend to like the Devil they know.Give up assets to get the guy we gave up assets to get rid of? I'll pass.

I think Karlsson's game is quite flexible so he is a low risk acquisition. He would likely fit on any of our top-3 lines (splitting faceoffs with PLD or centering Foligno/Bjorkstrand or centering Jenner/Anderson). He can also play on the PP half wall and on the PK.He's an RFA per Vegas Golden Knights - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps
On track for 51 points this year. So he's probably a 40 to 60 point guy for Vegas in their system. Who knows if he could do that here?
