For some reason it gets reported before the agreed return is finalized. No this is odd, seems like something else holding it up…if it’s a sign and trade they are working out with retention I could see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

travel_dude Posted March 7 Author Report Share Posted March 7 Hague makes sense because with 50% retained on Hanifin, it would be cost neutral. 1st - hopeful Edstrom - again hopeful Additional picks - cost for in division trades and salary retention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreger is the worth for wanting to be the first. Vhris Johnson seems to be the same. TSN = Try to Scoop NHL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cross16 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 I would be shocked if the deal is not already done. I thikn Dreger's "working on it" comment is more about him trying to find out the return. These deals are complex and it's likely harder to get the return here because i'm sure Vegas is busy talking to Hanifin and his agents. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MP5029 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 This is odd, I really get the feeling the deal is happening but it’s pending on if Hanifin extends… the 2024 first seems odd, LVK is the draft host any chance it’s the 2025 first? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they even mention it if it required a 3rd team? I don't think we need to ask a 3rd team to do something we can do ourselves. It's not a ton of cash, with less than a third of the season remaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTech780 Posted March 7 Report Share Posted March 7 Conroy is loving the Russian defensemen. Miromanov is 6’4” 26 years old and a RHS. Has put up good numbers in the AHL the last few years, but hasn’t cracked the NHL roster except for 28 games over 3 seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously I know that won't be it. Edit: This is actually likely a Vegas throw in/depth for the rest of the season type 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
