We're not gonna win any FA sweepstakes so now we're trading for bad contracts?  Not sure about this one.

What are you smoking? Hertl will have a 6.45M cap hit for four years because san Jose retained when he went to vegas......

 

6.45M for a 30+ goal high end 2C....

I didn't say he's a bad player.  But he's signed through 36 years old.  I just said I'm not sure about it.

Hes a big physical center, great shot and playmaker below/between the dots excellent PP and bumper player.... 

His game isn't likely to dissappear with four years of age....

 

This is just 2m more than useless KK.  2C is a HUGE whole and he is one of the better 2Cs.

30 isnt the same in the NHL as the NFL....

A big physical 2C who can give you 30+ goals would move us a lot closer to a cup than a wing IMO.

Tulsky out on Marner since he wants short term. So trying to facilitate a trade with either Vegas or Dallas to help them clear space to sign Marner. 

 

Vegas would be Hertl and Dallas would be for Robertson. 

 

Either deal is contingent on the other team being confident enough that they will be the team to win the Marner sweepstakes. 

 

Edit to add: 

 

Vegas deal seems 95% likely to happen shortly. A few Wolves players and draft picks for Hertl the current deal.

Short term would almost make Marner more appealing for me if I'm the Canes GM.  If it doesn't work out, you're not stuck with some albatross contract.  If it does workout, nobody's gonna be mad about winning a cup.  Everyone loses pieces when that happens.

Not against a deal for Hertl.  The contract length gives me some pause, but ~6.5MM AAV (after SJ retained %) probably isn't a big deal if we have some dead years at the end of that.  But yeah, could potentially be another KK situation where we have a useless player stuck on our payroll if he falls off a cliff.

If this is purely a salary dump and nothing of value goes the other way, I think it's probably worth that risk.

It was purely a salary dump with the biggest piece going to Vegas was a 3rd. Seems dead for now though. Dunno if Hertl vetod the trade with his move clause or not.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.

      Official Panthers roster cuts thread

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.

      Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
