Is it time to start thinking trade?

I mean this team is certainly over performing and we could be a position or two away from really being in postseason contention.

TE, DB, MLB should all be in play here. 

What are some realistic targets? Not trying to give up a ton of draft capital but I am looking to get these 2020 wins.

Stop it.

This is the kind of thinking that gets teams in trouble.  It certainly sank our 2019.

You are NEVER a couple players away.  Building your team for sustained success means you don't do things like trading for players.  You never get the overall value out of a trade that you do from successfully drafting good young players.

I'd trade CMC for a haul.

That's about all we've got to trade right now. Teams aren't going to be beating down our door for anyone else with the season being so uncertain.

If we want to trade some mid to late round future picks for good young guys fighting for PT on teams with a star in front of them, that'd be okay too. But lets not get too carried away.

We're trending up without needing to make any moves, and with our best player on IR.

    • Kalkbrenner and Sion James received regular contracts and not two ways, so the Hornets have some work to do to cut the roster size down. 
    • Gustavsson would be insane. I think we would have to break the bank to afford that move. Which, I don't think is necessarily a bad idea. Ultimately, Freddie isn't likely to be around more than a couple of seasons more. We can all agree that unless they have a fleet of sports psychologists working on Kochetkov, he will never be capable of getting his head on straight enough to compete.
    • I originally hated the Miller deal but with the cap projected to rise nearly $10M next season the Canes struck some pretty good deals between Miller and Ehlers. Most of the team is locked in for the next few years. Nikishin will need an extension probably in the $6M AAV range. And Blake will need one if we don’t move him. Personally I’d move Blake, picks, and any prospect not named Nikishin/Nadeau/Artamonov for McTavish as I don’t see any any of the big time players moving teams next year. Realistically the Hurricanes should just target Gustavsson next year to fix the goal tending issue. But I’m all for moving Blake, picks, and prospects for McTavish this year. Ehlers - Aho - Jarvis Svechnikov - McTavish - Stankoven Martinook - Staal - Carrier Hall - Kotkaniemi - Robinson Jost - Jankowski Slavin - Miller Nikishin - Chatfield Gostisbehere - Walker Reilly Andersen Kochetkov I’d do Blake, Felix-Unger-Sorum, and 27 2nd for McTavish.
