A lot 

Yes, but both of them come with term so they will be here and under a known salary.

It would take a 1st, 2nd, Morrow and + + for them.

Schmaltz and Gostisbehere would be less because Gostisbehere is a rental unless you extend him and that's part of the deal.  Still would cost a 1st, 2nd, and a couple of mid-tier prospects.

I think we also may need to think about Boeser and Schenn from Vancouver.  Boeser is having a terrible year and needs a change of scenery.  Schenn is a pure rental - would cost less I think than any duo of Coyotes.

Also, on defense Jake McCabe is an option with term.

Well we did trade for Burns with him, just seems we weren't willing to give up as much for either a rental or a player who would cost us at least $10M next year.

I don't fault Waddles for not paying the price SJ wanted, especially knowing Timo likes the West.  From what I've read the Blues actually could have offered the absolute best package for him, but they didn't either.

Cup or bust for Jersey!! 

Not really cup or bust for them. Well I'm not sure they keep Timo long term, the guys they traded away were nothing more than bottom tier 3rd liners/4th liners or prospects that would probably never make it for them. NJ will be very good the next several years, with or without Timo.

I feel bad for sharks fan. They got absolutely fleeced in this deal and outside of the draft picks got nothing worthwhile. They are going to be Yotes/Ducks level bad for at least the next 5 years

They got the most they could for him - in their opinion.

SJ wasn't going to pay Timo $10M next year as they are in total rebuild mode.  Timo wasn't going to sign long term in SJ.  They got a lot of parts/pieces for him when they could have gotten nada.

It will be funny if SJ gets the #1 pick.

Leafs adding a good D line man. East is going to be brutal man. 

Two players I mentioned going to the Leafs that will help them.

Toronto got a lot better in two weeks for basically nothing.  The Canes are sitting idle with their thumb stuck up their ass.

This is where opportunities are lost, and we are heading down a disappointing path.  This reminds me of Francis not doing anything to make the team better.

    • 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
