Dreger said the Canes want a DEFENSEman. Your post does not compute.
They're one legitimate starting goalie away from going toe to toe with any team in the league.I don't really see the Canes doing anything. Team is the youngest in the league, not ready to compete and should be holding on to all their assets.
They can sign what they need over the summer without giving up anything...
Yeah, I get that, but these guys have egos.
Rutherford/Karmanos and Mitch Illich wouldn't have any discussions for years due to bad blood even though fans said "it's strictly business". They hated each other and wouldn't even entertain a deal between teams.
Not saying that's the way it will be here, but won't be surprised if the don't talk either.
Can't skate and isn't very good?
I thought the same thing before he came to Chicago, but he can skate. Serviceable #4D. Not a rental, wouldn't cost a 1st.Can't skate and isn't very good?
It dates back to junior hockey days in terms of Ilitch and Karmanos along with a lot of downtown Detroit real estate deals. The rest of the world got a feel for it with the poison pill contract with Fedorov, but they have hated each other for years.
Agree, and I noted you didn't want to go near Kreider.
I gathered you had a preference for avoiding Strome but if he was reasonable enough you might consider a nibble.

Cheap option:
Mike Green@50%
For
Buffalo 3rd 2020.
Mike Green and Jake Gardiner. I shudder.
Hey, I said cheap.
Only way I'd trade Murphy would be for a 1st + Rees. In other words, not happening. He's our best defender. We'd be really screwed without him.Olli Maatta or Connor Murphy is your guy
Why was it called the poison pill? Detroit had $$ and there was no cap.
Lundqvist(50% retained) + Skjei + Pick if needed
for
Mrazek/Reimer (for cap purposes) take your pick. + 1st(lower of 2 picks) + NYR 2nd + Gauthier
gives NYR cap relief, and high quality assets in the upcoming draft and a near ready nhl forward
car a goalie upgrade and top 4 D with term.
They want a C - willing to part with Necas?
