It’s going to be really tough to get a deal done. If Sweeney can pull one off the great, if not I can’t fault him for this one. It’s almost impossible to add with no cap space and no draft picks.Sure seems like we are standing pat….
Yeah I don't understand why all season people can't seem to wrap their heads around this. We've known there is zero cap($57.5k currently) space since the start of the season. The team traded away their 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks this year and their 2nd and 4th rounders in 2025 before the season started. So no cap space, no capital, and no blue chip prospects. Sure, Sweeney might pull something off by sending Jake out(Ullmark is not going to fetch fair value in season), but the team doesn't really have the ammo for a big upgrade. I just don't understand how anyone in these parts has expected anything remotely impactful to happen at this deadline since the puck dropped opening night outside of a major shakeupIt’s going to be really tough to get a deal done.

I seem to recall Sweeney saying earlier in the season that he really didn’t want to trade away any draft picks. I’m ok with not doing anything, but I would guess they add a depth defenseman before the deadline and not much else.It’s going to be really tough to get a deal done.

Maybe because most of the other ones you would expect to have made trades have already done it. (shrug)Not sure what to watch out for given their limited assets but ok.

Haha that sounded more accusatory than I meant, I'm coming off 5 days in Vegas for work and it was possible I just hallucinated it last night.I posted it was happening but not the full deal. That didn't come out until late night and I'm an old man. Here's the full Guentzel deal:

I strongly endorse this sentiment.5 days in Vegas is 2 too many in my humble opinion.
They actually cleared money of next seasons cap. Bunting went to Pittsburgh in the Guentzel deal and was on the books for $4.5 million next season. They have ~$30 million to re-sign Jarvis, Drury and Necas. Seems fine to me.Carolina has a lot of UFAs going into next season. I’m really surprised that they’re gambling on Kuznetsov considering he has a year left at $3.9 after the 50% retained.
It's 3.5 too many. In Friday night, out Sunday morning is all I can handle at this point.5 days in Vegas is 2 too many in my humble opinion.
Absolutely. Same with New Orleans. Two days 3 nights and to the airport.5 days in Vegas is 2 too many in my humble opinion.

I wholeheartedly agree as well. Unfortunately when there's a work conference and you're mandated to be there, you don't really have a choice.Absolutely. Same with New Orleans. Two days 3 nights and to the airport.
Did you have a roommate?I wholeheartedly agree as well. Unfortunately when there's a work conference and you're mandated to be there, you don't really have a choice.
I was extremely well behaved (I was in bed before 10 the first 3 nights), but the dehydration and dry air just ruins me no matter how much water I drink.
I actually much prefer being there for work (which I have only done 3-4 times). It forces me to be an adult, disallows me from drinking at breakfast and lunch, and usually just focuses me on having a great dinner, playing a little blackjack, and going to bed at 10p like you mentioned.I wholeheartedly agree as well.

Haha no, but 2 companies ago we had to have roommates on trips as well. Thankfully I had friends I roomed with, so it worked out, but man that sucked.Did you have a roommate?
Yes I agree, this is like my 8th time going for work. I've never been for personal reasons. This was the most behaved I've been and it honestly wasn't bad. Past trips in my younger days I've been an idiot and tried to burn the candle at both ends and that didn't work at all.I actually much prefer being there for work (which I have only done 3-4 times).

You gotta be fucking kidding me. I gotta see how they make the cap work here.
Bruins will LTIR Forbort to become cap compliant, per source. Also coming: one more minor piece of business that is NOT a trade.
The new market inefficiency - pile up on oft injured players and game the LTIR system. Fuck that franchise.You gotta be fucking kidding me. I gotta see how they make the cap work here.
Nah. If I were a fan of that team, I’d love it. Doing anything and everything to win is good, actually.The new market inefficiency - pile up on oft injured players and game the LTIR system. Fuck that franchise.
