Rumor: Phil Kessel submits trade request

Sold

Koskinen plus Benson and Lagesson for Kessel at 50%

Lol. No.

If he joins the Oilers, I'll make him some Kimchi cheese dogs.

Gochujjang, with the beef hotdog (marinated in bulgogi marinade) with swiss cheese, kewpie mayo, green onions, sesame seeds, and seaweed.

Is that your photo or just one you found online? That looks amazing.

 

[These Are The Days]

I'm sure Penguin fans would lynch me for this but that team hasn't had the same scoring prowess since Phil left. Surely he can't make it worse

PK Subban is similarly only owed 2M in actual salary after NJ paid his signing bonus.

Might make sense as a hockey trade, Subban for Kessel straight up with no retention either way? Both deals expire next summer, ARI would be adding 2.2M in cap but only 1M in actual salary. NJ needs another forward and ARI could use a veteran defenseman after Hjalmarsson retired.

Coyotes would have to secure a trade to flip Koskinen first, Koskinen harms their shot for 1OA

Arizona isn’t looking for hockey trades.

 

[DarthProbert]

Carolina seems like the logical place.

Who gets bumped to the 3rd line, Svechnikov or Necas?

 

[Chan790]

NC doesn’t host the contest on July 4th though.

Nathan's are mediocre hot dogs. So are Sabrett honestly. They're both "classic"...but they're just not very good.

If you're looking for great hot dogs in NY, you pretty much need to head Upstate where you can find a good premium meat natural-casing hotdog. No good hotdog has ever come out of a dirty water street cart.

If hotdogs were indeed a consideration, Kessel would be a Hawk.

Pens fans would love to have Phil. Too bad our coach would not.

 

[AD Skinner]

Depends on who goes the other way I guess, but I'd imagine it shaking out kinda like

Svechnikov Aho Teravainen
Kessel Trocheck Necas
Niederreiter Staal Fast
Martinook Stepan Leivo

 

[Mosby]

A little surprised to see so much interest from Sharks fans. What is the goal in San Jose anyway? Seems like Doug Wilson is just trying to save his job at this point. Honestly that is a team that needs a full teardown AZ style. Karlsson and Burns contracts are killer.

Kessel wants out - 8 million cap hit says good luck

It’s 6.8 and will be 3.4 when he gets traded.

The contest however does give him additional spotlight. He can be the first dual sport athlete in recent history in the NHL. Competitive eating and hockey.

Kessel at $4mil for Marcus Pettersson

 

[GrizzGreen]

Come home Philly, TO misses its king

 

[Taylorst]

Kessel had 20 goals last year and I believe 43 points. Not bad his cap hit I think is like 8 million.
Chicago can trade strome and shaw to Arizona with a 3rd round pick.

 

[Taylorst]

He still produces offensively. If Arizona will retain some, they should get a good haul.

Yes he had 20 goals and 43 points, how much of a return he brings would be interesting

 

[Nakawick]

Im mildly intrigued with what Carter and Kessel could do together.

I think Carter would strangle Kessel. Kessel wore out his welcome in Pittsburgh. I don’t think management or the coaching staff or players want him back.

We also want to tear it down, but DW has made it clear that he's not gonna do that, so we're stuck trying to find ways to put together the best roster we can with the little space we have.

Before this most recent season I might have agreed with you, but we were 2nd in the league in goals during the 2020-21 season.

 

[Coach Parker]

So has anyone mentioned his return to Boston?

50% retained for DeBrusk? Cap hits swap and Coyotes get young cost-controlled RFA. Bruins get Phil to play with someone at center and Hall?

I’d rather just have a 2nd. And I don’t see DeBrusks value improving in Arizona

I think the real question is how could it be done? We can’t get rid of Vlasic, Burns, Karlsson’s contracts and are already paying Jones to not play. Basically their only option is to compete because they can’t even move their less desirable contracts for anything really.
