Glad the Canes get a little extra in the deal, but 2 2nd rounders is an absolute steal for this kid.

Fox played his 30th game of the season. It's official, Canes get 2 x 2nds for Fox.
Given the situation, this was probably the best solution for all parties involved since he was going to the NYR regardless, whether that was this year or next. Rangers got him a year early which helps the team this year and down the road, Fox got to leave college and go to his preferred team, Carolina didn't lose him for nothing.
For sure. But not bad considering he wasn't signing with the Canes. Compare those two 2nds to the single 6th Edmonton got for Marino, and Carolina made out like gangbusters in comparison (obviously not similar prospects at the time of the trades, but still).
CGY > Lindholm + Hanafin
for
CAR > Hamilton, Ferland (left as UFA) + NYR 2019 2nd + NYR 2020 2nd
And we already know what the NYR 2019 ended up being. Carolina traded that 2019 NYR 2nd (37th OA) to Ottawa for 44th OA and 83rd overall. Carolina then selected Jamieson Rees (44OA) and
Anttoni Honka (83 OA).
So to update:
CGY > Lindholm+Hanifin
CAR > Hamilton + 1 year of Ferland (left as UFA) + Jamieson Rees + Anttoni Honka + NYR 2020 2nd round pick.
I think the deal still favors Calgary though because the picks/prospects are still unknowns and Lindholm (mainly) and Hanifin have more term.
Fox played his 30th game of the season. It's official, Canes get 2 x 2nds for Fox.
and i'm very happy to turn over just 2 2nds for this kid.
As you should be. He looks like he's going to be a very good d-man in this league for a long time.
yep. a rare win-win trade.
Now that we are all chummy, can we win a game or two against you please? Thanks.yep. a rare win-win trade.
This what makes for a good trade! Rangers might have a goalie graduating college this year in Tyler Wall that might not sign with us due to lots of goalies. We could reciprocate to canes this summer.Given the situation, this was probably the best solution for all parties involved since he was going to the NYR regardless, whether that was this year or next.

Lindholm was fantastic for the Flames last year and Hanifin didn't really make a jump from what he was in Carolina. Lindholm has been fine this year but not at the level he was last year. I haven't followed Hanifin closely this year but his stat line looks pretty rough. Hamilton has obviously been fantastic and right now would be Norris runner up or close to it. Hard to argue with that as a Canes fan.
Might end of up being and win-win-win all around
has anyone mentioned that this trade is win-win yet?
I think someone went as far as to say win-win-win.

Oh yeah correct. I am just saying something to keep an eye since teams have a good trading relationship. Maybe trade a a 4th or fifth to talk to him in May.Wall is a bit different situation. Wall is a UFA this summer so there is no incentive for Carolina to reciprocate (in terms of giving up a pick) because even in the odd chance he did sign with Carolina, they wouldn't be getting him a year early like the case with NYR and Fox. Also, Fox was 100% going to sign in NY after the trade, there were no doubts. There's no guarantee that Wall would sign in Carolina if he goes UFA.
Rangers could have had him for free if they waited, just like Trouba. While being on path for Lafreniere/Byfield instead of a low bottom 10 pick and having Shattenkirk on a bounceback season instead of a buyout. A+ management lol
Meanwhile Marino cost a 6th and is just as good as Fox.
