Wow, math is not your friend, hm?
... How exactly did the Canes f*** that up? They had the trade ready to go but Faulk wouldn't waive
ginner classic
Dammit Jim!
Goldobin put up three primary assists tonight against your AHL team. Cheap no risk acquisition. Benning is dumb. Take advantage.

Nice guy, tries hard, loves the game.
Poolparty makes a ton of a sense, but I'm assuming the Oilers might be asking for too much in return and thats why he hasn't been moved.

To be objective here, I think about any schmuck off the street could have put up 3pts against the Checkers last night. I watched that one on my iPad up to Utica’s 6th goal...woof...
Nothing against Ehlers, but not trading Pesce is one of best decisions the Canes have made in recent years.
Let's not revisit it...ever.

And how would that be any different from a second-liner being called top 6?
I don't know of one single NHL team that puts their three best forwards on the first line, their second-best group of three forwards on the second line, and so on.
Wasn’t that about the time when the Carolina GM actually came on toronto radio and was overtly saying he wanted “a player who is not signed yet” but toronto wasn’t ready to talk trade.
And pesce was asking for a trade out of Carolina?
Crazy time to ban a thread. Or you mean once nylander signed?
Things are all roses im sure now. But pesce according to sources did want out. And Carolina has been linked to many forwards on the leafs.

And it was also known we weren't trading Pesce for anything less than an overpay and Nylander was NOT an overpay. IF Pesce for Nylander were even remotely a thing it would have happened at that time. It didn't, things were patched up with Pesce, and he's on our virtually untouchable list
Did you hear your own GM on toronto radio?
Or Bob McKenzie?
Hopefully for your team it has been. but to be sure that it has is kinda silly.
A trade request is a pretty big deal.

Guys on Finnish board told, that there was also some Devils-scout at Kouvola yesterday. I don't think there's anything reasonable to scout (exept younger Räty-brother, but he is 2021 draftee) than Puljujärvi.
Funny coincidence, when I saw Vatanen playing 1st D minutes + 1st PP mins at same day (instead of Subban), counted 1+1. Ken Holland has been after Vatanen before, and wouldn't be surpriced if he is an Oiler soon. Devils have multiple RhDs to give one (soon to be UFA) away.
My own "eklund"-pick will be Vatanen for Puljujärvi.

Speaking of silly, saying this definitively is just that. Friedman heard that he was frustrated early in the season, presumably because of an ice-time cut (Link). That's it. Unless you have a source to validate, calling that a trade request is a big jump.
My fellow fans shouldn't rewrite history, though. Not conclusive, but LeBrun thought that the Canes would be willing to trade Pesce if the Leafs made Nylander available (Link). Fortunately for Carolina, Dubas passed on doing that. I'd be surprised if the opportunity to trade for Pesce came around again, at least for years to come. Carolina's RHD depth has thinned with the departures of Faulk and Fox. Pesce's offensive game is improving, making a player that was already valuable because of his defense and contract, even more so. Nothing the Leafs have outside of the untouchables gets the conversation started, imo.

I’ve seen some of these points, including a weak wrister on the rush from the off wing beating a goalie that had no business going in. It was awful. I’m sure some of his points will translate, I think he’s a big body with hands that will bury some rebounds but saying he’s a better player now because of points over there does not compute.

At wonder what putting Bean out there as “available” would net CAR? I don’t really see a future for Bean in CAR at this point. More than likely if he was dealt, it’d be in a package for an established top 6 guy with term.
I personally think that Bean is worth a bit more than Puljujarvi or Ho-Sang in a 1-1 swap. I really like Roslovic from WPG, but not sure if Bean is a fit there as my understanding is that the Jets would be looking for RHD.

He’s at least a good asset, I’d hold onto him longer unless it was an obvious upgrade at forward. I don’t see one from these two being discussed.
