I'd be surprised if it's Hanifin. That would be more for Faulk.

I can't imagine Hanifin being moved

One of Hanifin, Slavin or Pesce is going to have to be moved for contract reasons. They all need raises at the same time.

Faulk's contract is too much of a bargain to deal him. He's at $4.8 mill for the next 3 years still.

That's true, but are you getting full value for a guy like Hanifin, if you move him right before he starts to come into his prime?

Teams know exactly what Faulk is. Slavin and Hanifin are both ascending

Unless they trade Barrie, I can't see them going for Faulk. That would be way too many RHD in Faulk Barrie and EJ.

The other thing would be moving EJ instead....which Dater was talking about some rumour he heard at the deadline for Drouin...which I do not believe at all

I love Faulk, hes a stud. Thats why I don't see that deal working, it would be a weird move for both teams. Canes move their stud and it just complicates the Avs roster forcing them to do more trades.

Team needs an impact forward more than the need another rising young defenseman at this point, especially with the emergence of Slavin.

Who knows....at that point Jack may be so pissed off with this organization that he goes back to Boston.

This organization is a (frank)ing joke.

Also said he hasn't met with the Pegulas yet...Disco was a Pegula hire, Murray has to talk to Pegula first to fire him...
