Kind of been talked about since the draft. Not exactly news that JP is someone CAR would target
I would if we had a gm that didn't lose literally every trade with talented players. He should have more value then drouin did when he was traded, but we'd likely get a cap dump player that'd blow out their knee just bad enough not to get litr game number 3 as pulju put up an allstar performance.
Stauffer said it on his show yesterday - the dman market for trade is non existent right now.
I’m guessing he’s chatted with Chia Over in Europe or on the plane back.
So Us Oilers fans just have to face it. No reinforcements are coming. This is the team we have and will have in the near future (till at least after American Thanksgiving)

Sometimes miracles
Good for Heiskanen, there's been a lot of hype, good he seems to be living up to it so far.
As for the joke, make it easy to just tune out and find other hobbies.

Dallas has an interesting d. I'm more impressed what they were able to do in getting Lindell and Klingberg. Lindell is playing 24 a night while he played 22 last year.
Sucks if you are Honka though. Carrick and Polak getting the minutes over him. Wonder what kind value he has as he's a RHD that is suppose to be that offensive weapon that can run a PP.

Now they've also got Heiskanen, who's been outstanding despite having just one assist.
E: I didn't realize he was already mentioned earlier...

I don't think PHI ever thought twice about their pick, but if NJ was at #2 do they take the center or d?
Going to be interesting in the next few years to see what a re-draft would look like. I never was overly impressed with the 2 Centers and wouldn't be shocked that the re-draft would be like the year we took Nail. Just a complete different look.
Real curious to see how Mittelstadt and Petersson do this year. Next year potentially Makar and Glass. Anyone know if Glass was close to making the Knights this year? Wasn't he rumored to being the guy Ott wanted for Karlsson, but they said no? Kid is lighting up the dub already
Yeah, we'll se things go, but right now I believe Heiskanen looks like a better pick than Patrick. It's very early, but based on what I've seen from him earlier and what I've read this season (yes I haven't watched his games in Dallas) he's going to be a very valuable defender.
Talking about Mittelstadt, I thought he looked very good at the WJC-20 and I'm expecting him to make a nice career in the NHL. He's one of the rare players who have really managed to grab my attention.

Drouin fetched Sergachev a legit top 4 dman and possible top pairing man in the making! I’m sure if JP landed that same return you’d be satisfied? In fact I’d trade JP today for Sergachev!
I don't know if this article from summer time has been mentioned here:

Just meandering speculation from months ago. Even less likely now that the Canes seem to be a cohesive team with direction. They’re not ditching their Captain anytime soon.

May as well get Bouchard up to speed then, oh I forgot, we gotta get Benning going.
That's what I thought, too, but I felt it contained some quite interesting thoughts so I decided to link it here and let anyone who reads it form their own opinions.

No thanks on Honka. I wouldn't trade more than a mid round pick for him and I doubt Dallas trades him for that.

If the ship has sailed on Faulk, what about Parayko? If the Blues slow start continues, they may look to shake things up.
I would. Assuming there was growth potential there. I'm not convinced we get that, our GM negotiates like an overly friendly dog that wants the treat in your hand.
JP for Faulk... idk. Ick.
If Parayko is available i trade anything not named McDavid or Draisaitl.
Nuge+Bear+1st+Bensen for Parayko+Bozak?
Idk. Maybe you have to move Drai.

I wouldn't empty the cupboards like that for Parayko. I think you might be overrating him a bit. Nuge + Bear should be enough to get it done.
If they keep struggling they'll trade for a goalie. Parayko is so untouchable to them, especially considering they now have great center depth with ROR - Schenn - Bozak

Watching the condors game @ SJ. The arena is empty. Like... empty..... maybe 40 people there. I've never seen anything like it. More people came to watch my peewee games.

I'd think that unless a team has a spare starter, there won't be a St.Louis trade. For us, we can't know how things pan out, but if half way into the season both Koskinen and Talbot look great we might have trading options for teams looking for a goalie.
Today, I don't think anyone gives up their goalies while the season is young.
