They aren’t trading Hague for thst. Many teams would easily beat thst.

I think Pittsburgh can’t trade Smith back to vegas with retention under cap circumvention

That rule only applies for 1 year after the initial trade date. They could make this move after the 2024-2025 season starts in July.

What do you think Hague is returning exactly?

Wouldn't be surprised if he is the odd man out this playoffs if their D is healthy.

Hanifin - Theo
Martinez - Piets
McNabb - Whitecloud

5 firsts duh.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

I'd take a bucket full of deer poop pellets for Reilly Smith.

 

[The Duck Knight]

Would make more sense to move Whitecloud to make room for Korzcak. Don't really want Smith back though.

Hanifin-Petro
Mcnabb-Theo
Hague-Korzcak

Martinez is gone as a UFA
McNAbb more likely traded than Hague because of age.

Hague isn't worth as much as you think from a trade standpoint.

 

[DingDongCharlie]

Martinez is a UFA, he's as good as gone in the off season.

Not saying Vegas wouldn't trade Hague, they before anyone other club would trade anyone to make the club better. Smith isn't it. I'd bet they have zero interest in bringing him back.

I bet they'd have huge interest in bringing him back at 2.5ish million without a doubt.

They added the Hertl contract, and have to extend UFAs Hanifin/Marchessault. I don't think they would have interest in a 2.5m cap hit on a 33 year old mid 6 winger especially at the cost of a solid 6'6 D at a lesser cap hit who's an RFA at the contracts conclusion.

I do think the Hertl addition closes the door on the return of Smith to Vegas.

Would love him back in LA.

If they plan on re-signing Marchessault it would just be a dumb move to bring him back.

Back?

Would you be open to Smith at 50% for Lizotte's rights + a 2nd or 3rd?

Isn't Vegas already retaining on him?

Was referring to Martinez in the offseason.
Would definitely deal Lizotte's rights.

Hague is worth a lot more than Smith.
