Im still wondering what the Preds are thinking leading up to the deadline. Its has to be one of the big questions.

We’ll see in a few days what these guys cost.
Most people thought Tanev would nab a first rder and he didn’t.

I certainly was not on that boat.

Fans especially overrate returns on these things. What teams will actually get

On Dowd, numerous cap fans have said a second rder is plenty for him. We only have one of them tho so you throw them a prospect and a 3rd, boom you got yourself a Dowd

I like Dowd as a player, but it doesnt move the needle for me because of how well Brodz has played.

Not more than a few weeks ago... teams were linked to numerous players from that squad headlined by Saros. Now... who knows.

last loss they was 9-2 to Dallas so they got some kinda message that’s for sure

Novak is re-signing I keep seeing. Trotz wants to. So maaaaaybe Sissons still could happen

They have no reason to, he makes pennies for what he produces.

I know but now after all this time you’re bailing on our guy?

They signed McCarron didn’t they? So ROR, Novak and McCarron is 3 centers. Glass plays center but is on RW right now (daily faceoff) so that’s 5…it may be possible, sissons or glass. Isn’t the Finn they have a center too? (Parssenen, spelling?)So maybe 6 guys. It’s not a bad thing for them, but maybe they fill another hole somewhere else with trading one. Keep some sorta faith will ya 😔

Frankie price going up like a rocket ship... so is Rico's for that matter ... both red hot lately....

I thought we could do a deal... now not so sure. Verbeek is going to want a pretty penny for each and or both...

And I'm not entirely convinced you guys need anything the way you are Rolling...

I know Frankie is in fire

Conditional second and a prospect for Rico. Fair as fair can be. ECF final you have yourself a first rder

Edit-4th for 50%

Right now, the only person I can see them trading is Barrie. They have one retention slot left and can use it there.

I just wonder what the deal is with Zegras. Is he "playing" to force a trade?

Both GMs are probably working on things with each other and it takes some time. Verbeek didn’t fly all the way to NY for the hell of it.

I just wonder, if Kakko is part of the deal, I know how you feel so its not directed to you lol.

How comfortable are we with Vesey playing on the 3rd line? With Henrique and Cuylle...

Emily Kaplan also said recently Verbeek is on of the GMs who just loves watching hockey. Tries to see as many games as he can
