I wouldn’t be against this. I actually like it. I think Joey and giroux could jell. I’d put kunin with johansen and him though. As much as I love the herd line I would love to see jeannot get put on the 2nd line. Jeannot johansen giroux could be a solid line

I think Philly will get better offers thank that for Giroux.

Not enough. But at the right price, I’d be interested.

Giroux then pavelski would be the deadline players I’d actually be interested in. Giroux will likely cost - little bit more but due to giroux’s caphit we may have an inside track. We have the ability to absorb his full caphit or hour need for retention or sending back another contract. That’s not something other deadline buyers will be able to do. Even at half cap hit some teams will need to send cap back the other way and Philly might not be interested in that.

I think keeping the herd together, having Kunin with giroux and Joey then a Tolvanen brassard tomasino fourth line could be a solid scoring option

I dont think the PHI offer is enough. Ufko is a 4th round pick and the 1st just isn't enough, competitive for Giroux, let alone they add Brassard.

Brassard, when healthy had 11 pts in 19 games, and probably gets a 3rd on his own in trade (remember that its only 80-90th pick overall in a fairly weak draft).

NASH 1st 2022, NASH 2nd 2023, and a better prospect is probably a more competitive (and rumoured cost) offer for Giroux. I know hes a rental, and I know NASH wouldn;t need retention, but PHI could offer retention for a better price, and theres a few teams that have cap space without retention, like NYR/can create cap space like COL/WASH by giving back an expiring salary (a Kempny/Hagelin/etc...).

I'd go with a NASH 1st 2022, NASH 2nd 2023, 4th round pick prospect Ufko AND maybe they take back Phillipe Myers for Giroux and 50% retention and Thompson (or RD Braun), then use the cap space in another trade/upgrade

Not even close for Giroux
