and Pacs leaves a year later as a UFA? Makes no sense unless Pacs agrees to sign long term with the new team before the trade

...of course, sign and trade or he agrees to sign with the Coyotes beforehand.

Maybe... I don't think Arizona would deal a lottery pick!

There's 2 different scenarios in a Pacioretty trade, one year or with an extension... Sign and trade are rather rare so I wouldn't count on that taking place! But a C prospect and a 1 would be great wherever he goes

they won't get both without a contract extension

Probably not, definitely not a lottery pick!

either way...I can't see Pacs signing at this point, he will want to maximize his value and potential destinations.

This is probably why he changed agents, Brisson being Bergy's buddy, might of been advising Pacioretty that it was a good idea to agree to a deal before being dealt

Lottery pick protected top...??

Pacioretty will sign an extension.

Yup... Trade him to NYI with Lindgren for Ryan Pulock, Bergevin loves the RFAs

Pretty sure McKenzie doesn't report fake trades

I wouldn't do it

They don't need a first or a 2nd for next season, that is my point. You seem to think it's a problem short term while I don't. Picks or prospects should come back or a very young player. ROR was too old for the rebuild. Never mind trading away assets that they need for the rebuild.
- deadpoulet

The team is not rebuilding. They have Price, Weber and more Vets. Until those guys are dealt, this isn't a rebuild. They are retooling meaning they are going to try to make the playoffs again. Either blow it up or make the team better, cannot be inbetween

I wouldn't do it

He just signed a 4 year extension. He's a center, 24 years old and a certain amount of talent.

Are the Sharks playing him at center?

I don't think he plays C in SJ... Josh Norris would be the guy I'd insist on
