Carolina Hurricanes Trade Deadline (Canes Trade Jokinen)


Recommended Posts

Carolina Receives: Conditional Draft Pick

Pittsburgh Receives: Jussi Jokinen

Note: Carolina has to eat some of Jokinen's salary (most likely this years salary, the Pens however will have to pay his salary for next season or buy him out).

Draft Pick Condition: If Jokinen plays in 25% of Pittsburgh's playoff games and the Penguins reach the Stanley Cup Finals, the Canes will receive a 7th round pick. If Jokinen plays in 50% of Pittsburgh's playoff games and the Penguins win the Stanley Cup; the Canes will receive a 6th round pick. If neither of these things happen, the Canes will not receive the draft pick.

We thank Jussi for his great service to our organization during the last five years.

Jeff Skinner - Jordan Staal - Tuomo Ruutu

Drayson Bowman - Riley Nash - Chris Terry

Chad LaRose - Tim Brent - Kevin Westgarth

Tim Wallace

Jay Harrison - Justin Faulk

Tim Gleason - Joe Corvo

Marc-Andre Bergeron - Brett Bellemore

Jamie McBain

    • I believe Lloyd will elevate not just the whole unit, but also whoever his running mate is. Wallace is still very young, I think he's only 23 with two years of exp now. Cherelus can handle starting, he's just fighting with staying healthy. Kuwatch I think is going to be a contender after a couple week of understanding the system.  I mean Lee will be against..... what nearly 10 NFL-level WRs, he's going to get work and its up to him if he can hang.  I think its fair to expect 12th +/- 3 or 4 spots.  You know this, it boils down to how healthy everyone stays.....cause if dbrown, horn, Lloyd, Michael Jackson, or tervon miss extended time.....no way 10th can be reached. IF all the names above remain haethly, I do think 10th should be the goal. They are a young unit and added talent to a 16th ranked unit. Its time to march forward!!
    • Varying degrees all around but it starts at the top. That is where the buck stops. It has been 8 years of stupid, long before Morgan came back. Or Tillis was hired. Made it to the top of stupid mountain in 2023. Stayed in stupid limbo for a while, now we are prepping to scale the next mountain. In this case, I like those guys’ roster building better than what we have had so I am okay with them as our current pawns in the game of Bryce. 
    • Don't let me gas him up too much, but I hear this and that...... I seen a wide body man with a quick burst, that's able to shed blocks and if extends his long arms its over. He tore up the OL in the senior, you seen about 10 plays and the dog walking OLman. There's other plays of him doing the same, just have to deal with fetus talking over the plays. Plus there's this-  https://x.com/PFF_College/status/2018385471068332410?lang=en     I hope he's ready, cause Id like to see him starting and doing his thang with dbrown, nic, and Phillips.
