Sujet: Playoffs means no picks
There are a couple of things to look at here:

Pesce (28) - 185 points (and great defense) in 557 GP (.33 PPG), +82, .37 PIM per game, .36 playoff PPG (+1) / $4.025MM salary with 1 year left
Myers (33) - 342 points (and okay defense) in 918 GP (.37 PPG), -7, .77 PIM per game, .30 playoff PPG (-4) / $6MM ($4MM after retention) salary with 1 year left

Look at the above, why would Carolina trade equal salaries for next season for a player who is 5 years older, with equal offensive production, much worse defense, takes twice as many penalties? This is a massive net negative!

Whoever said Nils is a "solid" winger is just as delusional as Canes fans overvaluing Drury in trade discussions. Nils is a .38 PPG, .32 PIM per game, -15. 4th liner at best. Suzuki may very well be a bust and hasn't played a game in the NHL yet (he had some serious injuries that he has been making his way back from), but has potential to crack the lineup depending on what he can show this year with his health, as of now a 4th line prospect. For this one it is difficult to base on little to no NHL stats as a comparable, but based on the last few years on lesser league play Suzuki has much better numbers. The biased part of me wants to call this a negative for the Canes, but I can't say definitively. Nils doesn't crack the Canes lineup though.

The 1st and the 4th are the value here. The 1st covers the discrepancies with the Pesce/Myers and the 4th would only be to sweeten it for the Canes to take Nils.

As a whole this trade doesn't make either team better, they'd both be worse off. Vancouver needs their picks to build, Carolina needs their pieces to push for a cup. This would make the active roster for the Canes worse, which is what they are trying to improve to win a cup, we have future picks already and honestly draft picks in the NHL are not worth as much as people think they are - unless they are top 5.

From the above Canes say no.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Caniac2000</b></div><div>Canes don't have the RD Depth or the Cap Space to make this work. They'd essentially be turning themselves into the Leafs from like 3 years ago</div></div>

I get you likely "like" the player, but this swap we do 10x out of 10. Nylander for Pesce straight would be a massive steal! Chatty as RD2 and Tony as RD3 (Cogs is also RD). You have to be realistic that what our team needs is better production from our forward group, which Nylander would provide. Pesce while good is a middle of the road 4D and Chatfield can take his spot without any drop-off. I see it more likely that we roll with Pesce (unless we can get a return like Nylander) and shop Skjei, sign a 3rd pairing LD - we aren't going to pay a 3rd pairing defenseman $5-7MM. This would absolutely not put us in the Leafs position from 3 years ago.

Sujet: First Try Minimal Change Roster Edit 1
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Hurricanes73</b></div><div>O man I feel like a dick right now. I didn’t realize you were new new like that. I would like to welcome you to the community and apologize for my earlier comments. If you need any tips let me know. Congrats on the baby and always feel free the reach out. Sorry for being harsh, I didn’t realize you were so new, I would suggest don’t edit a team after you post it tho most of the time because it’s like publishing an unfinished product. I get you’re getting used to it so again I apologize.

Talking hockey- pretty decent value for chychrun (although maybe not with retention) and I love the idea of bringing back Nino. Overall the revised team looks good and I think the revision makes it a much better team. Sorry for thinking you were a troll at the start. Again, welcome to the community and if you ever need any help I am here for you.</div></div>

No worries, I’ve most likely responded the same way to people who have appeared probably the same way that I did on Reddit many times. Yes I am new, new like today 😂

Such a tricky place honestly with working with it all, biggest block for me is Necas and Bear right now:

I’m not sure where Necas would fit with our current team landscape. Hard to pinpoint our lines with a player like him with Staal pretty much holding down a line that is tethered to his play-style. Love Staal and what he has done for our team and the things he brings, but (may get crucified for it) I think our team has grown past him and his $6MM holds a lot of our ability to do more things back.

Bear I really do like, but getting COVID (apparently long at that) right after his injury really put a damper on his season and a lot of fans hopes. If we knew he was recovered I would likely include him on this roster somehow on 3rd pair. He was starting to play well on the system before that injury. I do think if we get him back a shorter bridge deal would be all I would offer, maybe the $2-2.5MM range.

Some other notes - I do actually like Skjei, but not $5.25MM worth. Unlike some fans I don’t see Suzuki coming into the NHL and making an impact, I would hope I’m wrong, but I just don’t see it at this point - I think the hype outweighs reality. Martinook may be slightly overpaid, and while his production isn’t great, I feel he gets too much hate. I am cautiously curious about what Kase can do. I think the demand for Nino is lower than he thought it was going to be so there may be a real chance he comes back if we want him.

I’m liking reading through the armchair-GM stuff right now because it’s another way I can chat with fans about thoughts, ideas, etc.
