Canes were one of the teams that didn't need to move money or need AZ to retain on Chychrun. Caps are another. Heard Jets aren't pot committed yet. Assume LA out. Buffalo sniffing around still. Pens in mix, but needs to clear $ in some fashion if it gets there. Options fleeting.

I can't imagine what Pittsburgh could offer that would beat even modest offers by us and Detroit.

Plus Pitt has to clear salary

Detroit scares me now that they have two 1sts

Plus he had 31 points this year. He's not good as a defenseman, but, 31 points is 31 points.

Haver to thin CAR is out of Chick now

I would've happily added Shayne Gostisbehere for the 2026 3rd round pick that Carolina gave up.

You don't get to say it over and over again, why post it twice?

You got your peace, said what you wanted to say and then posted the same exact thing again?

Just stop

That's decent refereeing.

Warn both parties
One side does it a couple more times
Warn him again.

CHICK 100% sense for Buffalo, so, of course it won't happen. I understand Adams wants to build internally but (a) we have a ton of stud forward prospects and not that many spots on the roster and (b) have literally no stud D prospects and only a couple of moderate ones (Johnson being one)
- turbo044


Sure, but it still comes down to value. If we think that last year's firsts are all trending to be top 6 players then - coupled with our first ++ - would be giving up a ton for him. Quality prospects aren't being tossed around right now.

I still think the Caps are a dark horse candidate for Chychrun.

This place was great for a few weeks

Then you channeled your inner fritz

The site went wonky and posted multiple times

Maybe, I don’t know, act better? You been seriously antagonizing everyone for a couple weeks now and it’s for no good reason.

I 100% believe you and fitz are the same person at this point

I would have as well. I think that is why so many teams bailed on the chase - there were reasonable facsimiles elsewhere.

Another team that has turned a 2nd round pick defender into a first round pick, and a second round pick this time too.

That doesn't make much sense though. He's a pending UFA and 30 years old

Peterka hasn't done much.
Krebs is all heart but still a bottom sixer
Jost was a nice waiver pickup, but amother small bottom six player who would get crushed in a playoff series.
Quinn looks like a very good pick.

That cumulatively doesn't excuse him punting on the season or killing the last two seasons with his awful goaltending moves. Nor, does it excuse his tiny, tiny forward build. You obviously choose to ignor those longstanding glaring problems. I do not.

It peterka first year in the nhl… Jfc these statements are so stupid… what did Thompson do his first year… what’s so freaking hard to understand here. The Sabres are still a couple more years away… quick trade the kids away because they aren’t it…. You have no freaking clue what peterka, or Krebs will turn into… why does Quinn get a pass… he not got that many more point then peterka.

Right, but we do need another D and Anaheim needs to move him to get *something* back. If we don't want to move a top prospect for Chickenman then you do what everyone else did and get the next best thing for a pick.

Don’t kill the vibe. Let them learn


Adams knows how to make trades. He’s done it plenty of times.

My source said 70% chance of Adams doing thing. 89 said 80-85% he does nothing
