I think Edmonton can resolve their desire for a top Dman by looking to a do a deal with Nashville for Subban. Nashville jumps at a chance to move Subban. Perhaps Nashville becomes a late comer to a Karlsson deal.

I think the Edmonton, Nashville and Ottawa combination has been sticking out as a probability right from day 1.

Why are the Predators so eager to get rid of PK?

Why the F would Nashville trade Subban? Stop trying to be Eklund.

"More
Extending Nikita Kucherov does not take #TBLightning out of the Erik Karlsson trade talks. Quite the opposite; it gives them more certainty about their future"

This is what my source had to say yesterday.
Is my source two timing me. I thought his twitter was for my eyes only.

I don't know how true the rumours are but he does not have a good reputation inside the dressing room and is regarded as a negative influence on the young guys.

Again I need to stress I have only seen this as rumour. But, a month ago the Preds denied they were trying to trade PK. You usually do not need to deny something when it is not true from the beginning.

Tampa has $13M in cap space, $23 without Johnson and Cally. That is for 10 players minus those 2. Add Karlsson, even at $9M, and you get $14M left and only 11 players signed. That will take some real magic and some hope your rookies can make it.

He is dating Lindsey Vonn

Vonn lies in Vail Colorado

The cap will go up and Point also needs an extension. TBL would have to make major moves to make Karlsson work.

If that's true then wouldn't this make 2 for 2 since it's (allegedly) why MTL let go of him? Bad dressing room effect?

This is a strong point. In addition, guys like Sergachev and Point will be looking for huge raises next year and the following. I have no idea how Yzerman could do it without trading away one more large contract.

It isn't true at all. Old mouth breathing white dudes can't stand him and stir stuff up. PK is a great player and amazing for the game and community.

The question is how much do you need to deal away to fit Erik? Its not like you have no one on the roster. That D is already stacked and expensive. Some important pieces may need to go too.

It could work. I have no doubt Karlsson would be a great fit for the Preds. Not sure if Subban is a good fit for the young Avs.

I'm hearing DET is likely to get Kaut in the deal as well.
