Water is wet?

 

[Slapshot_11]

That seems pretty cheap for Nyquist?

 

[Bettman Returnz]

We added picks? What is McGinn contract situation?

RFA this summer.. currently $888k

RFA this summer.. currently $888k

Two more years till Ufa? Why though? He fills the same role as Roussel

The buyers have done ridiculously well this deadline.

You think JB actually has a plan?

 

[me2]

only way this makes any sense if they plan on using buy outs on the other crap. Figured Spooner would be an auto buy out this summer so this deal doesn't really make sense unless you're cheap as **** like Ottawa or want to buy somebody else out.....cough Gudbranson cough.

Buyouts don't make sense either. The team is going nowhere for the next two years, even if it makes the playoffs it isn't a chance at the cup. You are better off eating two years of bad deals than having the stench linger for 4 when you might actually be good.

Yeah not entirely sure.. I won’t believe it until Lebrun or McKenzie confirms it. JB did say he didn’t want to give up picks. So unless it’s like a 7th and/or he has something else up his sleeve (which is doubtful lol)...

 

[Fire Benning]

Definitely seems like a buyers market this year.

 

[Canucks LB]

Mcginn is decent

 

[y2kcanucks]

Mcginn is decent

He's a 4th liner. If Benning gives up picks in this deal....

 

[y2kcanucks]

Oh my, look at that! Gustav Nyquist was asked to waive his NTC. *gasp* what a concept!

 

[MS]

McGinn would be a decent bottom-6 acquisition if we didn’t already have 73 bottom-6 forwards.

 

[Bobby Digital]

Canes "We want a pick added to the deal. Give us a 6th".

Benning " Well like, you know the draft is in Vancouver this year so I'm not trading picks. I'll give you like a ummm 2nd in 2020".

 

[Zombotron]

Wow! Asking your NTC-laden players to get off your sinking ship of a team actually works!

 

[Hit the post]

Why would the Canes want Spooner?

 

[DonnyNucker]

He's a 4th liner. If Benning gives up picks in this deal....

I hope he does!

 

[Buresflyingelbow]

To turn Sam Gagner into McGinn would be a huge win. Fits right in and will be one of our more physical players.

Hope it’s true

 

[mathonwy]

This team collects 30pt players like Pokémon.

 

[geebaan]

Why would the Canes want Spooner?

They want picks...

 

[y2kcanucks]

I hope he does!

You hope Benning gives up draft picks?

Like I said, this isn't a rebuild.

 

[geebaan]

To turn Sam Gagner into McGinn would be a huge win. Fits right in and will be one of our more physical players.

Hope it’s true

I hope it isn’t if picks are involved

Not sure how reliable a source mike commodore is but he tweeted brock McGinn for spooner and a couple late round picks.

Would have to assume a 2020 3rd and/or heavy retention on Spooner to make that work.

If not, it doesn't really make sense from the Carolina side.

Maybe he got the wrong name. Schaller & a draft pick for McGinn would make more sense.

 

[TruKnyte]

That's cheap for Nyquist. If he's only worth a 2nd and a 3rd, wtf is our trash worth?
