Who knows what actually happened. Maybe he just was too rough with Bedard off the ice. Or maybe he hazed or organized a hazing. Hard to know. The only thing that's strange about this, is how Bedard's name came into this so quickly. Eventually it likely comes out for sure. Bedard is having a moment and has been the leagues baby face this year. Group think on social media loves to drag down famous people.

May be trade a 1st for a real top 4D. If the aquired Dman is quality and of the right age bracket, I'd absolutely be all over including the first in a trade for a top four D. My fear is teams will want Hogs as well. Man, that's tough. Hogs looks to be ready to become a steady NHLer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrJockitch Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 I do love the usual assumption that because we have cap space someone is just going to give us a quality right D when half the league is looking for them. Bear isn’t perfect but he is free and sort of available. Would I rather see another Hronek deal, not really can’t afford that under cap, but would love that level of player but those players don’t move that often and almost never this time of year. We do need to remember that agree with it or not this is a team being built for now, with an eye to the future but that is the secondary concern. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since it appears it was not involving any players or families, most likely some sort of sexual misconduct/harassment towards someone connected to the team. Considering Kyle Beach fiasco, organization moved very quickly. Perry might sue if he was dismissed unjustly, which I highly doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah it's a good trade. If this was Benning it Canucks would have somehow have given up a 2nd (if Canucks still had theirs). Like a 5th for Vancouver + depth forward (or project Hawks already gave up on) for Vancouver's 2nd round pick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't remember what we got back (a second? third? 4th?), but it wasn't much, and wasn't that happy with the trade either - you could tell he had a lot of jam. Think he actually was a Captain or co-Captain for them for awhile, turned into a serviceable NHLer, and was a character guy. The only advantage we have against other teams who are interested, is cap space. Calgary wouldn't have to take a crappy player back, they could then weaponize that cap space themselves later. Edit: Zadarov is plays 4-5th man minutes. Not sure if he's the right guy, but he's big and he's a defensive defenseman. For sure would be a good add. Like a mild upgrade on Soucy maybe. Like his size, and with the make-up of the team, he could be the UFA we can afford next season, but would try and work a trade and sign into it if he's indeed our target. Not a fan of rentals at this stage. The cost to acquire likely will be steep. If we managed to do it, and keep our first, then expect one of our better prospects going the other way. Tanev also would be fine. And won't cost as much. You make a lot of good points Zadorov I think would be too costly for a no. 4 d man agree upgrade on Soucy but not a huge upgrade Rasmuss Andersson has right fit written all over him for us but doubt calgary trades him… let alone to us tanev would be great for morale if cost not too high plus he would fit in seamlessly until he gets hurt he would resign with us looking at teams that have totally or almost fallen out - Ottawa - everyone keeps coming back to Zub - but I doubt they move him hronek - was not on anyone’s radar - I knew him well and just thought he would be untouchable for DET as he seemed to be a major core piece given age, cap hit, position and ability - I’m sure our pro scouts have a list of the exact right guys we need i cannot recall a bad move by our pro scouts yet …. Don’t jinx it but with cap space - we have the advantage now minny is interesting with brodin and spurgeon but those guys are older … Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the amazing things about this group is their ability to identify that and move on from a player. Stillman, Lazar, Beau off the top of my head.

I really wasn’t a fan of this management to begin with, but they have been pretty damn good for a while now. I’ll be pissed if we give Bear 2 mill instead of getting a real top 4, but they really do seem to be trying to create a winner, as opposed to Benning. Smart GM's don't trade like Jim Benning. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KoreanHockeyFan Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Perfect trade. There's no way we're getting this kind of value any time of the year for Beauvellier - no one was going to take on that 4 million cap hit freely. Took advantage of Chicago's situation and even got an asset back. Agree with some here though - I hope we don't just use this cap hit to sign Ethan Bear. Might as well use the flexibility to look for a more long-term solution. Perhaps something like Hronek is a bit farfetched, but something to that effect. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his getting the boot opened a spot for Beau V. And our brilliant GM took advantage of the opportunity. No retention.
