Canes being linked to JG Pageau and Ivan Barbashev.

Not exactly sure where Pageau fits because in reality he’s another 3C but Barbashev would be nice.

If the Canes could land Barbashev and and Meier I’d be ecstatic.

You could end up with…

Svechnikov - Aho - Jarvis

Teravainen - Pageau - Necas

Barbashev - Staal - Fast

Martinook - Kotkaniemi - Noesen

Stepan - Stastny

OR

Svechnikov - Aho - Meier

Teravainen - Kotkaniemi - Necas

Barbashev - Staal - Fast

Martinook - Stastny - Jarvis

Noesen - Stepan

 

With both Kase and Pacioretty on IR, the Canes can add two pieces without shipping anyone out, a third piece would require someone to be moved. I suspect if a third piece is added then it would be a depth defenseman and Coghlan would either be traded or waived with the intent of assigning him to Chicago.

Don't sleep on this possibility:  Nino back to the Canes!!

Oh, and the one thing the Canes have going for them with regards to Meier is we don't have to ask SJ to retain salary so we wouldn't have to give up "as much."  NJ would have to ask SJ to retain some salary or find a third team to help them land Timo.  Either way, NJ would have to pay more than we would.

Barb and Meier would be great. I would feel much more confident adding 2 guys.

Was mentioned during the Stadium game:

Waddell is not a rental guy. He is following Dundon's desire to keep the team competitive and not sacrifice next season for a run this season. Every season will be relevant and competitive. Any prospective FA acquired via trade will have an extension included at some point.

It seemed like the St. Louis Blues would be all-out sellers ahead of the NHL's March 3 trade deadline, but it turns out they're pursuing the biggest name on the market.

"A new team has entered the chat on Timo Meier, and I'm told that it is the St. Louis Blues," Daily Faceoff's Frank Seravalli reported Tuesday.

"That may be a surprise to some, but it shouldn't be. I'm told that the Blues inquired with the San Jose Sharks earlier this week about Timo Meier after executing the trades for Vladimir Tarasenko and Ryan O'Reilly."

St. Louis shipped O'Reilly to the Toronto Maple Leafs on Friday, eight days after sending Tarasenko to the New York Rangers. The Blues currently have three 2023 first-round picks after those deals, along with two 2023 third-rounders and a pair of second-rounders in 2024.

This isn't an unprecedented strategy from St. Louis general manager Doug Armstrong. He acquired a first-round pick in February 2018 when he traded Paul Stastny to the Winnipeg Jets, then included that selection in the package he sent to the Buffalo Sabres for O'Reilly that July.

Armstrong also landed a first-rounder by trading Kevin Shattenkirk to the Washington Capitals in February 2017, then sent the pick to the Philadelphia Flyers to acquire forward Brayden Schenn four months later.

Numerous suitors for Meier reportedly emerged in recent weeks, including the Carolina Hurricanes, New Jersey Devils, Maple Leafs, and Vegas Golden Knights. The Rangers apparently considered him their top target before reeling in Tarasenko.

Meier has 31 goals and 21 assists over 57 games for the Sharks in 2022-23. The 26-year-old Swiss star is on pace for a career-high 43 tallies over an 80-game pace, having missed just one game this season.

St. Louis is projected to have approximately $6.75 million in cap space at the deadline, according to CapFriendly. Meier, a pending restricted free agent, is playing out the final season of a four-year contract carrying a $6-million average annual value.

They would have to sell the farm for him, way more than the other teams listed would.

    • Yeah and I am doubtful he can offer that consistently. I don’t have many years left at my age and in my view we have wasted two and this whole exercise with him was always a three year minimum.  I am out on that with a guy I don’t believe in, and never believed in, it has sucked. To me it is a costly detour off the right track. Years.    But I am not so rigid that I can’t see excellence. He needs to display it though, consistently before I change my outlook.  
    • No, when I said rage, I meant rage, which only applies to certain fans on this board. Your timeline of trying to assess whether he is the future or not is really tied to the discussions surrounding his second contract. If this team is going to commit to some monster contract while he has shown nothing but glimpses of brilliance would be deservedly worrisome, so the clock is genuinely ticking for him to settle into something resembling his final form. Perhaps a best case scenario is that he plays well, the team succeeds, but he does so with a more limited role that makes the rest of the league view him as a game manager, and his second contract value reflects that. Then he continues to improve and becomes a bargain comparatively while not handicapping the team around him, and we enter an era of consistent championship competitiveness that the fanbase has craved for decades and has never really experienced before. But that requires many, many things to go right and for Bryce himself to facilitate that if he ends up being the quarterback of the future.
    • Exactly. And the flame throwers as well, get location benefits from not going all out. But they have it in reserve.  Not sure how much Greg had but he was an artist.  There was a YouTube I came across last year or maybe even 2023 and I don’t how to even find now but it had two NFL QBs I want say one was Carr from the Raiders but I don’t really remember  The point of it is they stood side by side throwing identical distances to identical targets. Radar gun was used.  They threw the normal effort (not all out) and it was measured etc. Then they were asked to throw their ‘fastball’. They were missing and most often they were missing high. It demonstrated the same principle.    edit: and applying that to arm strength, give me the guy that doesn’t need max effort to have good velocity. The margins are so narrow with less velocity in tne NFL the defenders can Close on it and this is a league where they value down to the 100th of a second level. It is that tight
