    Is he still going? I’ve had him on ignore for a while. If he is upset that I post on this thread I’m sure he’s perfectly capable of hitting the ignore button lol.

    When are the details of this Karlsson to Tampa deal gonna drop? I'm not sure I understand this. TB already has 1 of the best D-units in the league. Why are the (supposedly) trading offense to get him? Weird.

    Tampa feels they have to do something and he’s the best talent available.

    He has the most points out of any Dman in the past 7 years and is still relatively young, it doesn't hurt to have a loaded defense that can score for the next 5+ years. It should be a 3 team trade so the small things are taking longer to hammer out i'd imagine.

    It's gonna be a 3 team trade, the 3rd trading partner will take a bad contract along with a mid-level player/pick(s), ottawa will likely want 1 good player along with a prospect plus pick(s). Tampa has one of the best farm's right now, so giving up sergachev plus a forward like point/johnson will not hurt them when they get Erik Karlsson in return. Tampa has come out on top of most of their trades under yzerman...i should know as a rangers fan since we most likely might be the team taking the bad contract aka callahan

    They already have 2 dmen that can eat up 30mins a game if needed (Hedman and McDonough). And Sergachev is a complete monster. That kid would be going nowhere, if he was on my team. Point was probably their best forward in the playoffs. Johnson is a proven playoff performer. Getting the 'best guy available' doesn't equal success. There is a difference between building a team and collecting hockey cards.

    I agree that their window is open now. But I just don't see how bringing in that guy makes the team that much better, assuming some key players may be leaving up front. I would say the biggest reason that TB lost is because Stamkos and Kuc didn't do enough. Point was really good. Johnson was good (not as good as some previous runs but still a valuable guy). So depending on what gets subtracted, I don't see it as a good move. Especially because Sergachev is only going to get better. That kid skates so good. I would not move him, nor would I move either of the other forwards I mentioned. Sometimes you just lose. I wouldn't start acting stupid with changes. Small tweaks, yes, but I wouldn't give up key assets to bring in Karlsson, when you already have a really really good d-unit. I agree that Karlsson is unreal assuming he's healthy. But I think the fit has to make sense. That'd be like him going to Nashville. There is no point, especially if you subtract elements that you need up front.

    I think Dallas still has a good shot to land Karlsson, but there's no way Miro Heiskanen will be part of any deal.

    True. Guess we will see what happens. I still think Tavares makes more sense than Karlsson, but I agree not needed either. At least from a hockey standpoint, Tavares in Toronto makes sense (to me). My only issue with that was if there is a conflict of interest to their young star. But you made a lot of good points.

    I like the idea of him in Dallas. I think that would be a good spot for him. That would be a legit upgrade for that team. Not sure of what would be going the other way though, haven't heard much there.

    I've heard Julius Honka, Devin Shore, and 1st round / 2nd round future picks. Not sure that's enough to get him here though.

    Wouldn’t that be hilarious. Ottawa trades Hoffman to Florida to attempt to keep Karlsson at least content that his wife won’t have to deal with the shenanigans of Hoffman’s wife and then Karlsson might be sent down to the south to their closest (in distance) competition so it could start again (all rumours of course)? I’m thinking that might be a bit of a problem for K’s wife even if it’s not the same team.

    But maybe a Stanley Cup would fix it all.

    When people are crazy anything can happen. At least when Pheneuf was messing around he got traded to the other side of the country never to see another Flame again.

    Im tired of hearing all the Karlsson shit. Ill believe it when its confirmed.

    Ottawa is a tire fire, and I'm not the only one that thinks this whole debacle has started from the top.

    Not too sure about that last part. Lot of my Oilers friends like to consider the Flames as the Seattle Flames. They will miss us I keep saying but they keep laughing. Shits.

    Doubt it. Sens just announced completion of new financing a few weeks ago. Lets hope someone can buy the team before its too late - but Euge doesnt seem to be budging.
