Proposal: Carolina - Nashville

[mikeyfan]

Carolina trades Jake Gardiner and Ryan Dzingel for prospect Phillip Tomasino and a 2nd round pick in 2022.

This would totally be a cap dump for the Hurricanes as it would free up around 7.4 million which would allow the Canes to sign Vatanen and possibly Granlund or Hoffman and the Predators pick up a defenseman they appear to need and a winger who has put up points in the past and still leave them with around 5 million in cap space for future moves.

What the hell is wrong with you?

[ViktorBaeArvidsson]

Why you do this?

 

[mikeyfan]

Why would you not?

 

[WreckingCrew]

Canes fan here to apologize for this proposal...no way it works for Nashville I'm sure unless we're taking some cap back. Otherwise we're probably looking at a low draft pick or meh prospect in exchange for cap savings. No way in hell we get either the recent 1st round pick OR a 2nd.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Carolina does this for a 4th and no prospect.

Ok I have no problem with a lessor prospect or pick. My question is is this a proposal that could be worked out for both teams.
Negotiations are always good have

So you believe a deal along these lines could possibly be worked out that would benefit both teams?

 

[Maurice of Orange]

I don’t believe Nashville is in a position to be trading away good prospects or high picks for cap dumps in a flat cap environment.

Nashville could potentially sign Hoffman and still have to resign RW Kunin so they have a full roster with Tolvanen and Trenin on the verge of cracking the lineup so Dzingel would be dead weight on the scratched list and Gardiner probably wouldn’t crack Nashville’s top 6 as Nashville looks to prefer stay at home defensemen on their 3rd pair with Borowiecki, Benning and Tinordi coming in cheaper combined then Gardiner.

Thanks for an honest reply. The flat cap was the reason I went for a 2022 pick instead of a 2021. Again thanks for the response

 

[ViktorBaeArvidsson]

Why would you not?

Many reasons. 1 we’re getting back an asset we don’t need in Jake Gardiner while trading our best forward prospect in our system. Not only that but we also get to happily throw in a 2nd for a guy who had a big drop off season after his lone good season. I think David Poile would laugh so hard and his constant wheezing would cause him to have a heart attack. Then he would sue the Hurricanes for making him laugh too hard at this proposal.

This is like if we offered Matt Benning, and Colton Sissons for Ryan Suzuki and a 2nd. Hell, you might as well throw in Svechnikov in there too it’s just a cap dump for us.

Two 'dumps' for value in a flat cap. In a world for Nate Schmidt went for a 5th.

 

[GOilers88]

I feel like Nashville should keep their cupboards stocked with prospects. At least if it's for Gardiner and Dzingel.

 

[T_Cage]

All I ever hear on this board is ‘Team X is gonna have to give up 1sts to dump their guys’.... yet Carolina is gonna get to dump their trash AND get assets back?

dzingel, maybe I see a team giving a mid to low pick. He’s only 1yr and not ‘overpaid’ but there are cheaper options still out there. Gardener will need to have something attached

there are better uses for Nashville’s weaponized cap space should they go that route.

Carolina trades Jake Gardiner and Ryan Dzingel for prospect Phillip Tomasino and a 2nd round pick in 2022.

This would totally be a cap dump for the Hurricanes as it would free up around 7.4 million which would allow the Canes to sign Vatanen and possibly Granlund or Hoffman and the Predators pick up a defenseman they appear to need and a winger who has put up points in the past and still leave them with around 5 million in cap space for future moves.

Nashville clearly adds. I mean, we are talking about Dzingel here.

The negotiations would be: CAR adds a 1st rd pick in order to dump salary and doesn't get back anything in the realm of Tomasino.

Cap dumps don't work this way. You want to free up money to sign a player? You give us assets to take the money you don't want, not the other way around.

 

[LeafChief]

This is a joke yes?

 

[Soundgarden]

Unless there's another, far far far inferior, Phillip Tomasino who spells his name exactly like our best skating prospect then HELL to the NO.

 

[The Moose is Loose]

Nashville wouldn’t even take these 2 for free if I had to guess

 

[Cardiac Jerks]

This is a joke yes?

Sadly, no.

 

[Viqsi]

Yeah; he's a proven producer with Duchene. Look at how well they did together with the Jackets...

...okay, bad example.

 

[TFHockey]

Jesus lock this thread already.

 

[BigFatCat999]

Wow, a Nashville proposal a lot of people crap on that I didn't make

Defensively, the Preds depth chart is sound. Dzingle is a massive disappointment. I'd rather have Mk. Granlund.
