Hoffman + Pysyk for Faulk i wouldnt mind (IF they end up signing Panarin in UFA, otherwise id retain Hoffman, would suck to trade him and not wind up with panarin)I’d say with Hoffman and Brassard one more piece is necessary, a prospect from Charlotte most likely.
Pesce only happens if Hubderdeau is on the table. Slavin is probably #2 on Carolina’s untouchable list.
All that said I’d be happy to see Carolina pay a 2nd for Brassard. Brassard and Jordan Staal gives the canes a much stronger top 9
I have no idea what Dave Tallon is trying to do at this point

Hoffman + Brassard for Faulk + 2nd I could live with. But that’s if the get panarin, I love hoff hereI can't see Carolina taking a cap dump at defense.
The main reason Faulk is available and not a priority to re-sign in the off-season is the glut the Canes have down the right side on D:
Pesce, Hamilton, Faulk, TVR, McKeown(AHL), Fox(NCAA), Martin(NCAA)
The left is pretty deep as well, but not as deep as the right side right now.
I think you're right that returning to Hoffman-Faulk+ in the off-season makes more sense. I'd still like to get Brassard for the deadline.
Can't believe I wasted my time explaining myself to you, between you ignoring every word of my post and your general demeanour. I appreciate that you appreciated the "relax" comment but I would prefer you heeded it. On a whim I mused about the Panthers situation for half a second and somehow this caused you to snap.
That was there plan from the get goFlorida wants to trade him already?
Preparing to make the trade everyone expected them to makeFlorida, what you doing
He means Panarin, Stone, Duchesne, Karlsson, Pavelski, Skinner...Best UFA class... you mean Drury, Redden and Gomez?
Coz your "musing" was dumb.
Kadri is hurt depending on how long he's out there could be a fit
I have no idea what Dave Tallon is trying to do at this point
Neither does he. How does this chooch still have a job?I have no idea what Dave Tallon is trying to do at this point
Guess it goes to prove Florida fans are stupid, because multiple people have said the same thing on our board. Holy crap all he said is if Brassard and Hoffman go and we don’t get bread and Bob it will be bad. Does anybody disagree with this?

Why?
Caps will trade for both and bring back to Hagelin-Brassard-Zucc line, they are all best friends as well IIRC.Someone should trade for him and zucc. Great chemistry, and the other winger on their line usually reaps the most reward.
