Before this season, considering how the Canucks played, it almost looked likely Pettersson was going to sign a 1 year deal and get out as a UFA or traded before then.

After they finally play a good season, maybe he'll stick around after all. But it'll cost them.

Mittelstadt?
- Symba007


From the reports I have heard, the Sabres are putting his name out there to get some immediate impact help, not picks or an expiring contract-type of scenario.

I do not see the Habs being able to pull off this type of deal before the TDL.

But perhaps what the Sabres want in return changes in the off-season, if they still have Mittelstadt in their organization and want to trade him.

oh I don't see Habs making a trade now. that will wait for the draft. they need to know at what rank they will draft before trading picks.

I think Mittelstadt will be traded by the deadline or not at all.

How much better do they expect to get by trading a guy that just had a 59 points season and is on pace for better this year?

they need help on D, they are not making the playoffs this year, they will want a assets ready to make the jump.

I honestly have no idea what HuGo will go after and what the price will be. If they get some luck and win the lottery and are able to draft 1st or 2nd and are able to draft Celebrini or Lindstrom, they would be set at center, a trade for another forward would be for a winger with size, as Brian Burke would say...pugnacity, testosterone, truculence and belligerence, someone who can play in the top 6 with those qualities

Dunno.

Seems like they got some nice young talent on the team and just need to work on depth to take the next step. But you don't trade one of your best players for depth, so they must be looking for something specific.

Absolutely, might be able to sell a vet here or there at the TDL. This summer and the draft should be very entertaining (again). On the UFA front, I think they should target Chandler Stephenson as the best 3rd line center of the league who can jump in the top 6 if there is injuries. Guentzel and Stamkos as well (not both obviously).

Stamkos at 34 doesnt fit the schedule of being good in 2 years

I wonder what Reinheart will cost, didnt realise he was sitting at 39 (frank)ing goals

That will be an expensive contract.

Does he score at that rate with Dach as his center, rather than Barkov?

Stamkos will retire in TB imo.
Guentzel I'm not interested. we do not have a Crosby.

long rehab, hopefully he gets back in shape for a very productive summer of training and show up top shape at the main camp.

agreed, would be a big mistake to overpay Guent when you don't have someone to feed him the way Crosby do.
