Soo apparently on the 31 Thoughts Podcast yesterday(haven't listened to it yet just saw something on twitter) Elliotte Friedman talked about Hexy looking at Sam Reinhart with Buf interested in Morin/Sanheim. What do you guys think about that?

That video did nothing to inspire confidence.

He just needs time to get used to skating on the prosthetic foot they gave him after they had to cut of his real foot the other night.

Any Chance Hexy shoots for the moon and tries to get Karlsson? 6.5M cap hit so you have to move a salary with it, but Gudas would get 3.5M and it would be a RH D man for RH hand D Man swap. Just not sure what goes back the other way, maybe the blues first rounder?

I feel like they have a lot of the parts to make a run this year and they are one big tweak away from having the parts to compete in the grind of the playoffs

No chance IMO. Karlsson is going to demand a huge return.

“We’re not going to give you a good young prospect to try to get into the playoffs,” Hextall said. “If we can do something to help get us into the playoffs at the right price, we’ll look at it. But the deadline typically is not a great time to get great prices.”

“We’re not at a point where we feel we can add just one piece and elevate us to the top of the league,”

They are looking for a Lindros type return. Gudas plus about 5 other assets, a 1st round pick, prospects etc.

PLEASE NO!!!

He will be looking for max contract. Max contracts destroy teams. Look at Chicago.

Heck, even look at Edmonton, I know the McD contract goes into effect next season but they are already feeling the crunch of the massive contract.

then on top of that insane contract you are going to give up 5+ pieces to acquire him??

No thanks.

I don’t know about parting with Gudas and a 1st for Karlsson. Ottawa would have to sweeten the pot

It's a shame some fans don't have more respect for a player who is willing to take on challenges from bigger and stronger players and not back down, and is willing to stand up for his teammates.

I respect guys that are actually good at hockey.

Fighting in the NHL is so (frank)ing dumb anyways. I wouldn't even consider it actual fighting....

I'm greedy, I want them both:

G-Coots-TK
Lindblom-Patrick-Voracek
Weal-Laughton-Simmonds
Raffl-Filppula-NAK

MAKE IT SO!!!

- BiggE
This kid NAK has really come outta no where this year.
Had a decent JR. career but regressed last year, but this year he really stepped up. Great to see players developing!

As a barometer I just read this dozzy of what to expect.....Sergachev, Tyler Johnson, Taylor Raddish and the 2018 and 2019 first picks for Karlson. That is some crazy shiite right there.

Zero chance seeing apparently you have to take Ryan's crazy 7+ mil cap hit with it. Karlsson is amazing, but Im not sure this is where you make your move because the assets you have to give up you would want to sign him and he will be one of the highest paid players in the league. 11-12 mil cap hit... no thanks

What's crazy is Tampa could pull off that trade and still be a deep team with plenty of prospects to back fill roles.
