Rumor: Canes Acquire Jake Guentzel

Elite players though, we have Aho and that’s it. I’m fine with selling off good prospects to get us over the hump, I personally don’t think Guentzel does but I hope I’m wrong.

Svech is elite, he’s just in a dip. D is all elite. Giving away elite talent to replaces the guys we have eventually is moronic.

Let's not act like Jarvis/Necas/Svechnikov don't have elite talent.... (need consistency but it's getting there)

I don’t see a team with Jack Drury as their 2C winning the Cup.

I truly think this team needs another elite center.

Petterson would have got us there.

Can't assume they are done though with Bunting off the books they have room for a second move just wait.

We got the best player and you are complaining??!!   Jesus guys 

I’m just going to say this now. How big is the meltdown gonna be if we don’t win a cup with Guentzel and he walks? Will you be a good sport and say our time is done, now we can go be the Carolina panthers?

They won't be close to Panthers bad even if that happens (he's my buddy but I have to say...) if we don't win the cup that meltdown is gonna be epic regardless lll

Lots of people contradicting themselves.

Servalli has come out and said that the deal includes a conditional pick that can become a first, multiple prospects, and Bunting.

Morrow NOT part of the deal.

Lebrun says it’s the Philly 2024 2nd unless we MAKE the cup, then it’s our 2024 first.

If he scores goals and does his part. We make it to a cup finals and win…he can go play for the Carolina panthers for all I care. We got our win. That’s all that matters.

I would be unhinged if we did nothing and got bounced again in the mid rounds because we couldn’t score goals…like every year under Rod.

You called him a 100 point player, he averages 58 points.

    • I was watching a YouTube and it was said that scout and GM insider types were saying the NIL had killed rounds 4-7. I don’t know that I buy it, seems like it might for a year or maybe two but then those guys have to move on.  NCAA is apparently about to give 5 years of eligibility. It is gonna skew those entrants older maybe.   
    • Miller being less raw and more pro ready makes sense of why they picked him. With us having a capable starter in Walker the lower floor higher ceiling player makes sense for us as well. I agree with that. 
    • I'm from Michigan and have had this discussion with my Lions friends, and they all agree with me, they were never going to take Freeling over Miller.  As, yes, you are correct, they could have left Sewell at RT and taken Freeling, but they are in a SB contention window right now. An OL with Freeling at LT and Sewell at RT is not as strong as Sewell at LT and Miller at RT would be for this upcoming season and likely at least next year as well. 5 years it could be looked back upon as a long term "mistake" to take Miller over Freeling, but for a franchise like the Lions, you can't worry about the long term when you have current SB aspirations.  It's all about maximizing their current SB window over the next 1-3 years. And it's not about style, it's about day 1 readiness, and a lot of "experts" aren't even sure if Freeling is ready to play Week 1 yet at the position he's used to, let alone switching to a side he hasn't played before, but a career starting RT is going to be more than ready to fill that role for them Week 1. I'm 100% convinced that if our draft positioning was swapped, we'd have still taken Freeling, they'd have still taken Miller, and both teams would have got the OT that they preferred due to what each team needs right now and what their current realistic aspirations are for the 2026 season. We're in a position where we can let our drafted OT sit and learn for a bit, they needed a week 1 starter, for me that's where this discussion becomes very easy to understand why each team took the player they did.
