Rumor: Canes Acquire Jake Guentzel

Nikishin IMO will be a superstar by year two under no circumstances would I trade him! Keep in mind Morrow isn't even a signed prospect....

 

Also I wouldn't call Vegas getting Jack Eichel not getting a superstar l.

Eichel wasn’t a rental, he was in the early part of an 8 year contract and was acquired at the beginning of the season.

Trading Morrow for a rental only makes sense if he told Carolina he won’t sign with them. Which I don’t know why he would because he’d have a great shot at being on the bottom pair next year.

No guarantee he's gonna be a rental though that no permission given just means Pitt hadn't allowed contract discussions yet at that time..... 

 

I like Morrow it wouldn't shock me if he did say that being anther Harvard guy... either way if we win a cup it's a win no matter what they traded.... I'm all aboard

Right but I don’t think you can make deals off of if’s. I’d want an extension before giving up a 50 point winger, an offensive-defensive prospect with top four potential, and an early round draft pick.

We either need to win the Cup or Guentzel needs to re-sign in order for a trade that consists of Bunting, Morrow, and a pick to be considered successful.

Losing in the second round and then losing Guentzel would be a disaster.

Details starting to come in:

Carolina Receives: Jake Guentzel (un-signed)

Pittsburgh Received: Michael Bunting, Scott Morrow, a 2nd round pick, and an unnamed prospect

Absolute steal from Wads.  We got to keep our big gun prospects that haven’t done anything yet for us. Great job!!

That is way too much. We are getting fleeced if that’s true.

Some speculation that Jackson Blake is also in the deal which I’d hate. He was one of the best college hockey players this year.

Who cares at this point. We got an elite player that can score goals and help us win a cup. It’s about Gotdamn time we did it. Let’s go win us a cup with a proven player vs stashing unproven hope for the future.

Hahahahahahahah. No way dude!   We owned this trade. We haven’t had a 100 point guy since 2006 Eric Staal. We just got one.  Time to ride! 

Guentzel is not a 100 point player. I don’t even think he’s an 80 point player on the Canes. Probably 60’s-70’s. And we never see that if he doesn’t re-sign.

    • What's wrong with Damien Lewis? He played pretty well last year.
    • Official NFL Cuts Tracker Deadline for roster cuts is Tuesday, August 26th. At this moment (Friday, August 22nd) the only interesting names I see are... K Caden Davis (BUF) RB Ameer Abdullah (SF) WR Equanimeous St. Brown (SF) WR Donovan Peoples-Jones (NO) LB Khaleke Hudson (TEN) Abdullah, St. Brown, Peoples-Jones I don't exactly think we should cut anybody for but it was just interesting seeing those names. Khaleke Hudson was on the Panthers' practice squad last year I believe and might have even gotten called up? And of course, Caden Davis just because of the question mark at kicker this season for the team.
    • I'll say 6/10. I don't know that we learned a whole lot about this team during preseason that we didn't already know. We didn't play the starters enough to really get a feel for what to expect. We had one good drive against the Browns, one 3-and-out and two 3-and-outs against the Texans. That's an extremely small sample size across 3 games regardless of performance. My camp/preseason takeaways: Jalen Coker might be the best WR on this team and is certainly no worse than #2. Nic Scourton is going to be a good player for us. Possibly very good. Bobby Brown was our best free agent addition. Jack Plummer isn't an NFL QB. Not even a practice squad guy. Having anyone other than Canales and Evero call plays was a really stupid and pointless idea. Our depth is largely non-existent, especially on defense. The three areas we actually DO have depth are on the OL, in the WR corp. and at RB. I can't fathom why Dan Morgan didn't do more to upgrade ILB during the offseason. We better hope Lathan Ransom steps up at FS because if he doesn't we have a massive hole. For all the hype surrounding Sanders/Evans, Tommy Tremble is still the best TE on the roster. I'm only slightly less enthusiastic going into the regular season than I was a month ago. I think our starters on offense are solid and we should be pretty good there unless Bryce totally regresses. On defense, we're probably bottom 3rd in the league if 100% healthy and significantly worse than that if injuries become an issue. We badly need at least two of our rookies to become high-level players early (ideally one of the pass rushers + Ransom) and at least 2 of our free agent additions (ideally Moehrig + Bobby Brown) to be significant upgrades over last year. Call me pessimistically optimistic 😆
