whhhhhhhyyyyyyyyyy xD

We need a left handed puck moving defenceman and Jake Bean is oustanding with the puck, but have some issue defensively. would be a great fit with Weber.
I have enough confidence in Caufield to match at least Tatar offensive production so Montreal is very fine with this actually. They will loose Tatar this summer in free agency so why not use him when he still have some value. Both team could benefits this trade.

you have no idea what you've done.

the bat signal just went up in Raleigh.

ok

yeah but carolina's also probably going to lose tatar in the summer for nothing so they wont do this

Carolina is in Win now mode and they will be buyers at the deadline. They are already stack on defence and at Center but could very use some scoring on the wing. Tatar is a 6 straight 20 goal scorer, people seem to forget that he is a very good hockey players. And that call rental player and it happen everysingle year team are weiling to spend to acquire missing pieces.

The Bean signal?

forgot how old bean was to be fair, keep thinking hes 20

When CAR spends, they spend assets on non-rental pieces,. No way they give up Bean for a rental.

Notice in their only rental trade last year (Vatanen) they traded scraps. If I’m trading Bean, it’s in a package for a top 6 forward with term, certainly not Tatar.

Entry level contract end this year. they have a lot of other prospect ahead of him now and clearly no spot for him on the left side of their blue line. With Slavin, Gardiner, Fleury, Skjei he will probably ask out anytime soon since i do believes he is Nhl ready.

HOw old are you ? because They once was buyers in the mid 00's when they had their cup run. The fact that they where not buyers in the past 10 season is a big factor why they haven't acquire rental players. you don't need to have a Degree in Science to understand that. Why would a team who miss the playoff would want to acquire a rental? But now they are legit contender so i expect the gm to fill the hole just like any good gm does.

What prospects are ahead of him, please do tell?

He has NHL defenseman in front of him, not prospects. CAR is not as deep on defense as some make them out to be. Bean will be needed if they don’t re-sign Hamilton. Regardless of whether or not they re-sign Hamilton, they’re probably going to lose one of Bean, Fleury, Skjei or Gardiner to Seattle. So, it behooves them to hold
onto all of their D until the expansion draft unless a can’t miss trade comes along.

Guess what? Tomas Tatar ain’t it.

Having confidence that Caufield can come right into the NHL and produce as a 2nd line winger is crazy. Sure, he might have a better shot than anyone currently on the team, but the NHL is a big adjustment, even for players taller than 5’7. Plus there’s the fact that to replace Tatar he’d need to play LW, which isn’t his natural position. And you haven’t even though of the chemistry Tatar has developed with Danault and Gallagher.

Also, Montréal could use a top-pairing LHD, but the last thing we need is another 3rd pairing LHD, especially if you’re thinking about the future. This trade makes us much worse in the present, and makes no difference in the future.

Take Fleury to go play with his brother, I don't want to give up Bean. I wanna see Fleury for Mete in some sort of form.

1: Bean is an AHLer
2: Tatar is a LW, Caufield a RW. Not at all the same player.
3: Tatar pending ufaaaaaaa

Caufield step right in and will produced at least at the same pace then Tatar. I have watch him played over 50 game in the past 2 season and he is ready. Just the step he have took from early in the season and the last game saturday against michigan state is absolutely phenomenal. He also have produced at a historic rate in Ncaa scoring almost 1 goal per game. There not been much Players in the historie that have accomplish such in their 19 years old season.

Armia can play left wing, Toffoli play left wing Drouin Left wing. So Caufield can still enter the line up. I know its very hard to understand but the coach can modify the line up the way he want,

What does that have to do with Don Waddell and Rod Brind'Amour who have only been in charge for 2 years? How old are you thinking that take is anything but awful

Armia hasn't played a single time this season on the left side cuz he's a pure right wing. Toffoli is playing left side because we have to much RW and because Armia is not a 4th liner. You can't trade a LW rn

Canes aren't dealing Bean (who's an NHLer, has proved it so far) for a rental. Pass.
