But why, Flo would be looking at defense

 

[MillarWithASave]

Don’t really see a fit with Carolina, considering we are looking for a top-4 defenseman in return.

 

[FLpanthers16]

With pesce out i really dont see another fit.

Canes need a big time C to play #2 behind Aho. Trochek got 30 goals and 75 points the year before last. He's the exact right guy for Carolina to go after.

I don't know what Florida would ask for. But I do know that this guy ticks all the boxes for the Hurricanes.

I’d imagine the panthers might be keenly interested in Jake Bean

Is he an established top 4 d-man who excels in his own zone?

No?

Not keenly interested then.

Perhaps not “keenly” but I certainly think there’d be a bit of interest there. I could be totally off, but a possibility I’d think.

In a lot of threads on Trocheck, Panthers fans do nothing but trash him but now he's supposed to be worth a top 4 d-man? Yeah, I think the Canes will pass then.

Hopefully this drives up interest with other teams in Trocheck, because I don't see a beneficial trade with Carolina right now.

There's nothing wrong with him, we just don't see a fit here anymore with Trocheck. We need defense badly, and he doesn't provide it. If you are looking for a 2C that will try and drive the play to create some offense, he's solid for that and signed to a good deal.

 

[Merrrlin]

Now that would be a spicy meatball. Definitely makes Carolina more dangerous offensively,

Would be smarter for Flo to aim for one of the Minny D, in my opinion.

Panthers fans who are pissed he hasn't been the 75 point player he was two years ago trash him. He's still a 50+ point center on a team friendly contract. It may not be one of the biggest steals in the NHL anymore, but it's still a very valuable contract. He's not going to be traded for scraps/futures.

Pesce wasn't going for Trocheck before the injury.

Carolina has a lot of young D that could be of interest as part of a package: Fleury, Bean, Keane probably have the highest potential.

Could also see a forward like Haula going back giving Florida a center to backfill Trocheck and a D addition.

I do belive that Brodin is the best guy to go after.


We need an established top 4 to make it a good trade.

 

[llp]

hopefully part of a larger deal with minnesota involving brodin or dumba and necas

 

[GoldiFox]

Jake Bean has been one of the best D in the AHL this year and he is immediately ready for a call-up. It is possible that Florida believes he could step into a top-4 role fairly soon.

Jake Bean + Erik Haula for Trocheck

the Panthers aren't in a position to make a quantity for quality trade.

 

[lauraP]

I'd take him on buffalo in a heartbeat

understood. If it has to be a proven top 4 D then Carolina has been out since Faulk was dealt at the start of the season. Can’t afford to move any more of the top 4.

Deal done.

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Looks like everyone in the Metro is fighting for position. And I’m sure the Penguins aren’t done with deals.
