Value of: Jaccob Slavin

[Mangosteen]

Well, the title says it all. What would the Yotes have to give for him?

Chychrun lol

 

[Tasteless Beaver]

It would take Chychrun or loads of futures, and I don't know why a rebuilding Arizona would do it.

 

[GIN ANTONIC]

Chychrun lol

Pretty much and even still it's a trade you probably still wouldn't make as the Canes because trading Jaccob Slavin and his beautiful contract will only lead to bad things. Fully understand the other Jakob is great and also on an awesome contract.

 

[SI90]

He’s a top2 defensive dman in the league. He’s signed for another 4 years at a 5.3mil AAV. You’re not getting him for anything short of a haul. Also, I believe he has a NTC?

 

[Mangosteen]

Dang didn't know about the NTC. The reason is we are going to be going through yet another rebuild and I want to try something different. Have great leaders in the room and on the ice through the rebuild / retool. If we have the wrong charter in the dressing room and around the rink it takes forever to get rid of the stink. Need the professionalism and ethics of a guy like Salvin. Nothing but respect for him.

 

[GoldiFox]

Slavin is the most untouchable player on Carolina. Worth more than Aho or Svechnikov. The handful of players in the league that he could be traded for are even more untouchable.

 

[AhosDatsyukian]

Unavailable. Period.

 

[themelkman]

Yotes are not in a position to give up assets. Keep downgrading

I'd say Aho is more untouchable. No slight on Slavin.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Carolina doesn't want to trade him, you'd have to offer such an extreme overpayment to make it pointless from the Yotes end.

Come back in 3 years when they're in the middle of an Ottawa style meltdown, and you can probably get his final year.

 

[FinnishCoyote]

Would be same if you asked Chychrun from Arizona

Ask is going to be astronomically high

 

[bobc222]

I'd say Aho is more untouchable. No slight on Slavin.

If forced to trade one, most Canes fans would prefer to trade Aho in view of the contract situation, the consistency and the ability to eat minutes.

I'd say you don't build teams around Slavin type players, you do around Aho type players. This is coming from a guy that has watched his team build around defense since it's inception.

 

[bleedgreen]

Everyone is tradable, I just don’t see how anyone would want to pay the price on this one.

 

[WhiskeyYerTheDevils]

With his contract vs the market for dmen, he's arguably one of the most valuable assets in the league.

 

[Roboturner913]

Not gonna happen, no offense. Slavin is the most untouchable player on the roster.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Slavin is one of the few players I'd be okay moving Byram for, and that's simply because I'd love to see Slavin-Makar as a pairing. I think Slavin's efficiency and defensive capabilities would free up Makar to do magical things.

And Canes probably don't even do that trade. We aren't trading him for a younger good defenseman with big upside. I mean we aren't trading him at all, but if we were to, it would be for a King's ransom.

I wouldn't blame the Canes, he's fantastic. It's one of those "scout your own backyard" lessons for the Avs, could've had two great shutdown defenders in Carlo and Slavin if they just scouted outside of "works hard with limited upside" that they were obsessed with.

Can't blame them. Every team passed him over multiple times. And even then, Slavin flew under the radar basically until he turned pro especially since in his last season at Colorado College that team was epically bad. I don't think a single Carolina fan can say they expected him to be this good at any time during his college career. He went from prospect playing in the AHL to NHL top 4 d-man in about a month.

LOL. Slavin and Carlo in the same D-core would be a nightmare to play against. If the Avs ended up with one or both of them on top of Makar, Toews, Byram, Girard would just be disgusting. I'd just forfeit any games against them.

I realize he’s from Colorado, but the year of his draft, when most of the scouting is done on a lot of players, he was in Chicago.

Bert Marshall, a canes scout back then was really high on him. Said every time he watched him, he always made the right play even if the numbers didn’t show it. Was lobbying hard for Carolina to take him sooner so they kind of lucked out.

He was taken with NJs 4th round pick that Carolina obtained in the Ponikarovsky trade.

 

[Mickey the mouse]

A TON !!!!! Especially with his contract. Probably 1 of the best values in the NHL
