I wasn't even gonna bring this up until it was out there but F it since I heard it last night I bet whispers of it come out sometime. There are talks about Crosby potentially being moved. Id obviously be blown away if it happened but there are definitely 2 teams asking and from what I know Sid knows. Avs are obviously 1 and I think Leafs are the other. I think there was something more to the nucks potentially moving Lindholm and it wasnt for Jake...

I had heard that the top level Avs brass were putting together a package for Crosby but not that anyone would listen to it. Then they traded Bowen Byram and I thought... nah.

Literally the only way Crosby is traded is if he INSISTS that he's traded. They have to keep him because he'll sell tons of tickets even if the team stinks the next X years.

ASSUMPTION. We're not going to hear about any trades until after the game is over. Would really like to know the lineup.

Helps me have endless speculation like Ned being in goal is a signal that teams are interested in Jarry. Why stop the speculation? We have until tomorrow afternoon. Don't waste a moment.

I have no doubt teams are offering. I have no doubt Sid will be the captain of the Pens at least 3 more seasons. I’m pretty much right about everything.

Do you think Elon Musk is paying Dubas to slow walk this? How much is Twitter/X making on people viewing ads on their looking for Jake news?

ESPN saying the trade for Jake will likely be done tonight and it will be to Carolina.

Michael Bunting will likely be coming back in the trade (my own speculation). Carolina is holding him out tonight and he has played for Dubas before in Toronto. I wouldnt love it since he's signed for several more years at $4.5M and it doesnt look like he's having a great season.

Michael bunting being held out in Carolina. Obvious connection with Dubas. Given the recent waivers for Carolina, I think he is going there.

High pick, bunting, and what prospect?

Bunting scratched. Dubas obviously connected to him from Toronto, gotta think he’s part of the package

I don’t necessarily mind bunting but he’s just not a needle mover. Anyone know much about him?

Bingo knows how Bunting is playing better than me, but my first impression is that if we are taking Bunting back at his full contract... that is a negative in trade value, not a plus. That should increase the package of assets from Carolina.

Middle 6, 20 goal guy. Not a bad player but a top prospect should be attached.

If I had to guess, there is a 50% chance this is a homerun deal for Dubas and a 50% chance this is a lackluster deal that Dubas backed himself into a corner and was forced to accept

Friedman saying we are getting bunting. Hopefully they can move out smith. I don’t mind Bunting as a Smith replacement.

If we deal with the Hurricanes, Im looking for Nikishin, Blake, morrow, or Nadeau

Agree. I think Dubas may have been a bit overzealous in his expectations for a Guentzel trade. He may have overplayed his hand and (frank)ed himself.

Bunting is ok but not young enough for me to really value as a piece coming back. Hopefully taking bunting is viewed as a cap dump and the assets attached will be the better for it

EDIT: obviously prefer him over Kaako so glad the trade is with Carolina and not NYR

Said this before. Dubas should’ve let teams talk extension.

It has to be. Solid middle 6 guy, I like his game. But we better be getting Morrow and Nadeua or one of them and a first.
