Something around tanev would be fine, it won't be kulich, Benson, or savoie though. Don't think vladar has much value either.

Canes history of rentals are 3rd round picks and B- prospects. Lindholm isn’t changing that

Lindholm for 3rd round pick and B- prospect?

I am normally the first to say, “prospects of that level never get traded”…but Nadeau and 1st is reasonable price, I think.

Selling low on all expect Andrew

No way Tanev gets a better return than Hanifin

I think he’s more saying the Canes only target cheaper rentals that won’t cost 1st round picks or top prospects

Vladar is decent backup. Who will be Sabres goalies come stretch run? Is UPL the guy now? Levi return?

Did he?

Kulich + mid 2nd
Vilen + late 1st

At some point the window comes shut. The canes had a bunch of cheap quality guys with term. The canes have quite a few guys expiring, with even more next year, and a core that's getting older and older

Oh, okay. There wasn’t a Sami Vatanen option here.

If they exited the deadline with Nadeau, Kulich, Vilen, Wahlstrom, Hunt, four 1sts, two 2nds…you think that would be disappointing deadline overall?

Probably

I think it would be solid haul for one year (especially for rookie GM). If it were me…I would extend Hanifin and Tanev, if they would sign, trade Lindholm, Z, Mangiapane.

I think you just left 2 2nds on the table at least maybe a couple 3rds too it’s not a bad return but not as good as it could be

all seems good, only thing i would say is i dont think kulich is available.

There's no chance he's available for a rental.

It's a 3 headed monster, I expect if somebody wins a game, they play the next one. Doesn't matter, vladar doesn't represent a significant upgrade, I don't see him being a target.

Reasonable price or not, canes won’t touch that price. High priced rentals aren’t our thing. High priced rentals don’t guarantee cups so it’s unlikely the Canes change it up either

I gasped out loud at the buffalo trade

ALL of this ^

Kulich for a rental ?
Lololol
ZERO CHANCE dude

Tanev for a 2nd might be something the Sabres would do
But Kulich is certainly not available for him,
OR for Vladar- who i can’t imagine we’d have any interest in at all. We aren’t looking for a “backup” goalie

When your entire defensive core hits UFA in the next 2 years, your dominant 3rd line is all 30+, and you have Jarvis and Necas needing pay raises, now might be the time to go for it

Good thing they dealt a Hobey Baker favorite for David Kase

Gave up a pick too.

Well our future isn’t near that bleak.

When Necas and Jarvis get their extensions, 5 of our top 6 will be locked up for a long time and young.

We have Nikishin and Morrow coming in. Slavin is staying.

And our farm is still good. The canes will be good for a long time
