Guentzel.

Brassard, obviously.

Postby **Tico Rick** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 9:42 am

I'm guessing Brassard, Hagelin and a 3rd round pick.

Postby **NTP66** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 9:47 am

That's definitely not 'meaty', IMO.

Postby **Troy Loney** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 9:48 am

I doubt it would involve only expiring contracts.

Guentzel.

Possible but would be stupid to trade a LW for a LW given that our 2LW is Hagelin.

Postby **Gaucho** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 9:53 am

Brassard, Sheary, 2nd, 3rd.

Postby **Dickie Dunn** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 9:56 am

But Sheary's dead.

Trade was probably offered before we traded him to Buffalo.

For Skinner? That's a def downgrade for Carolina, imo.

I’d think a goalie was asked for considering their goaltending is roughly two road cones with a stick across the top.

Okay, then. Brassard, Jack Johnson, Dad, and a 3rd round pick. It doesn't get meatier than that.

They could have DeSmith. I'd allow it. DeSmith, Jimmy Hayes, Trotman, and a 4th for Skinner. Get it done.

That makes sense. Kessel would also make it a "meaty" trade, though there would have to be more than Skinner coming back. Didn't someone post something about a potential "blockbuster" trade a few weeks ago?

Some NHL Network radio stooge reporting that the Pens are interested in Skinner and Pacioretty, are willing to trade Brassard for either.

Postby **Lemon Berry Lobster** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 12:22 pm

They'd probably be willing to move him for both.

Does the stooge read 5AF?

We are interested in both of them. We did make an offer for Skinner, I'm not aware if we made a hard offer for MaxPac or not. But GMJR has been all over scoring left wingers this summer...as many as he can touch...though, strangely (maybe?), I've never heard Patrick Maroon being tied to us...doesn't mean we haven't inquired, but in all the godric-chattery that I've been around, that's not a LW that we have been tied to...MaxPac, Skinner, Duclair, Domi...on and on..we were/are in there...

I think mikey ought to have his own title here. 'Official 5AF Correspondent' or some such.

Postby **Lemon Berry Lobster** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 12:35 pm

He already has enough on his plate as the official 5af pasta sides connoisseur.

Postby **Morkle** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 12:39 pm

In regards to Maroon - too slow for the system would be my first guess? GMJR wants a LWer with better wheels than that?

YouTube · Postby **mikey** » Thu Jul 05, 2018 12:50 pm

Sure, that's the easy answer of course. But then you look at Hornqvist. Now, maybe you don't want two of them...maybe Maroon isn't nearly as smart as Hornqvist so it augments the slow factor. I think that's probably right. Maroon has a little bit of a rocky history too, but he seems to have buttoned up...

Mikey can you confirm meaty was a neck meat reference? Not a good trade imo
