Sujet: Window is now
<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Feelers4Ehlers</b></div><div>I think so too. Making some "buying" trades Like Buchnevich keeps the window open next year. Especially when STL is willing to take on 50% of the contract.</div></div>

The problem that is obvious to all Penguins fans is that Sullivan has sucked this season yet still has a job. So if they cared about competing, he would have been fired months ago. Rutherford as GM would have fired him months ago unless ownership prevented it. So if they wanted to compete, that is step #1. Otherwise, all these other moves mean nothing. They didn't do that which tells me and all other PIT fans that they have no interest in competing. So don't try making contradictory decisions or it will make everything worse. They're sellers this year so sell everything that maximizes value.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Feelers4Ehlers</b></div><div>Correct. It was Kotkaniemi and Necas.

Speaking of that, as a Canes fan what were your thoughts on that reported trade and then finding out what Petey ended up signing the extension for? As a person living in Vancouver and follow the Canucks because of where I live I was hoping that the Canucks would get these 2 players for Petey.</div></div>

On one hand, I'm disappointed that we got so close to landing a superstar and couldn't get it done. EP40 is one of my favorite players not on the Canes and it would've been incredible to have him. However, I'm also happy that Don Waddell was willing to make a big offer and swing for the fences.

Ultimately, it takes two to tango, and it seemed like EP40 never really had any intention of leaving Vancouver. He was just using the threat of leaving and dragging out of his contract negotiations to get a better deal.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Feelers4Ehlers</b></div><div>Yeah if I'm the NJD Nemec isn't going anywhere unless I'm getting something similar in value for him but right now that isn't going to happen. So yeah I agree Nemec is untouchable. But I thought I was reading somewhere that Mercer was falling out of favour in NJD. That might have just been some clowns on this site speculating and not actual factual.
I really hope that Samberg isn't available to teams. I know everyone is replaceable but Samberg has really turned into the player I thought he was going to be. I also think that there is more to his game than what he is already doing. He is unfortunately on a team that values the veteran guys instead of guys with talent and can make the team better. There is no way that Samberg should be playing less minutes than Dillion or Pionk.</div></div>

Mercer is a core piece here. Plays center, wing. Plays PP, PK. Plays any line. Plays in dirty areas. Never takes a shift off (literally…since he has arrived in NHL in 2021, has played every game in regular shifts). Is loved by teammates, coaches. Definitely has never fallen out of favor. More likely gets extended 8-years at end of season.

Holtz is the guy who is often in the doghouse. Lindy Ruff doesn’t give him a ton of ice time. He scores…but will often be last in ice time. Has lead to big debate among Devils fans…play him more vs trade him. But kind of waste to get 5 minutes off 4th line. Especially when has has lead team in 5v5 pts/60.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Feelers4Ehlers</b></div><div>I’m not saying all of these players be included in the deal for Connor. I’m just saying that a few of the players listed be in the return to Wpg.
What type of player is Bastian?</div></div>

Was mostly kidding about Bastian. He is big body 4th line RWer who can dial up physicality when needed. Not really a pest. Has some good hands…usually good for handful of goals around net. Defensively solid…plays some PK. Long reach, quick stick. Not very fast. Good team guy.

If the names you mentioned, Nemec is probably the least available. Mercer is usually untouchable. Holtz probably an option. Toffoli could be too.

Maybe a scenario around Toffoli (at 50%) and Holtz and something for Connor.

Or just Holtz for Samberg+Lucius.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Feelers4Ehlers</b></div><div>Sundqvist would be a great pick up for WPG but yeah I agree that STL probably holds on to him. I have a question for you as a STL fan. Do you see one of your defensemen being traded at the deadline or in the offseason? If so who? I was looking because WPG needs a solid RHD defenseman and Parayko would be my ideal player for WPG. interested to hear your thoughts about what STL would be looking for a return for Parayko.</div></div>

Krug probably gets bought out in the offseason if we can't move one of Faulk/Krug or Leddy.

As you can probably understand trading Parayko in division is a nightmare waiting to happen. It puts us in a full blown rebuild and then we have to watch Parayko on a different team multiple times per year. Unless you guys have a young very projectable 1D I dont see Parayko being moved.
