Not an excuse STAR goalies are just NOT traded....

 

Best bet of that would be the Rangers sucking real hard and going full rebuild but they wouldnt want to trade us and if they did it would hurt.

 

Star goalies don't grow on trees....

 

Not to mention the past two years it didnt matter who we had in goal..... when you turn the puck over like that and get out muscled in the middle of the ice it doesn't matter who is in net.

I just want 2 solid ones. I dont like the burden being on one unless he is a superstar.

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.

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.

Yea same but its tough out there.  Everybody uses their backup a significant amount now, so there's not enough good goalies to go around.  Either that or the pad size adjustments made most goalies not that good.

Jackson Blake  in his first full year had a 34 PT season while averaging only 13:54 Mins a game. You don’t trade a player with his expected potential unless it’s for a top tier 2C. 

 

I don’t see it. But who knows.

I agree. Blake seems like the classic Cane type of player. He is one I would be very reticent to part with at the moment.

    • Rashid Shaheed Born: Aug 31, 1998 (27 years) Height and weight: Height 6′ 0″, Weight 180 lbs Current team: Seattle Seahawks (#22 / Wide receiver/kick returner) Rashid Shaheed signed a one-year, $5.2 million extension with the Saints in July 2024, keeping him under contract through the 2025 season with a $1M signing bonus and $4.2M base salary in 2025, before being traded to the Seahawks at the 2025 deadline, making him an Unrestricted Free Agent in 2026.   His initial deal was a 2-year, $6.185M contract with $1M guaranteed through 2025.    Rashid Shaheed's scouting report highlights him as an electrifying, big-play deep threat receiver known for elite efficiency on deep routes, explosive plays, and reliable hands (zero drops over multiple seasons), though he's undersized (around 180 lbs) and needs to improve blocking and route running consistency to shed his "situational/boom-or-bust" label and become a full-time WR1/WR2.     Strengths: Elite Deep Threat: Ranks among the league's best in air yards per target and yards per reception, consistently producing 30+ yard catches and touchdowns. Playmaker: "A playmaker" who excels at making plays downfield and adding a vertical dimension to offenses. Reliable Hands: Showcased impressive ball skills with zero drops over recent seasons, even making contested catches. Efficiency: Finishes high in metrics like yards per route run, demonstrating effective production when targeted. Undrafted Gem: A significant value find for the Saints, proving overlooked prospects can excel.      Areas for Improvement: Size/Blocking: At around 180 lbs, he's smaller and less effective as a blocker, which limited his snaps in New Orleans compared to bigger receivers. Route Running: Needs to develop cleaner routes and better consistency in intermediate areas to earn more targets beyond deep shots. Consistency/Role: Often a "boom-or-bust" or situational player due to volume fluctuations, needing more consistent targets to reach WR1 status.      Role/Projection: Schematic Weapon: Stretches defenses, creating space for other players and opening up the run game, making offenses more efficient. Fantasy Profile: A high-upside FLEX or WR4, capable of winning weeks with big plays but dependent on volume and quarterback play. Future Outlook: His value hinges on earning a larger, more consistent role, potentially becoming a true WR2 with more opportunity and development in blocking/route running.   
    • A team that wants to win at any cost rolls with Young and Dalton for 3 years? 
    • Trubisky would be a top 5 backup QB with potential for long term replacement stretches if Bryce gets benched.  The issue will be price. Also a big fan of Allar late in the draft. THAT is the kind of injury gamble you take. Not in the 2nd but on a 5th-7th rounder that was formerly a top 2 round prospect.
