Trade Notes: Eberle, Kraken, Blues

March 4, 2024 at 6:09 pm CDT | by Gabriel Foley 15 Comments

The Seattle Kraken are making their decisions ahead of the Trade Deadline, now preferring to sign forward Jordan Eberle to an extension, rather than trading him, per TSN’s Darren Dreger. Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman shared the same in the latest 32 Thoughts article, adding that the team could continue extension talks with Eberle beyond the Deadline, pouring cold water on trade rumors surrounding the 14-year pro. Eberle was previously linked to the Edmonton Oilers, New York Islanders, and Toronto Maple Leafs.

Eberle is having yet another productive season, scoring 14 goals and 35 points in 56 games. He’s once again scoring at a 20-goal pace, a feat he’s managed in each of his last two seasons with the Kraken. Eberle also managed 63 points last year, the most he’s scored since the 2014-15 season in Edmonton, and ranks third in all-time scoring for the Kraken with 142 points in 217 games. He offers great complementary value in the top six, a strong power-play presence, and the experience of a 1,000-game veteran – all highly-coveted assets on the trade market. But with teammate Alexander Wennberg generating plenty of trade interest of his own, the Kraken are seemingly opting to hang on to Eberle for now.

Other trade notes from around the league:

  • Kraken general manager Ron Francis is reportedly content with standing pat outside of Wennberg and Eberle, Sportsnet’s Elliotte Friedman reports in the latest 32 Thoughts. Friedman adds that there has been modest interest in Adam Larsson and Yanni Gourde, though Francis isn’t eager to mess with the team’s core pieces. Seattle has generally refrained from making much of a deadline splash, though they did sell off Mark Giordano, Marcus Johansson, and Calle Jarnkrok at the 2022 Trade Deadline.
  • St. Louis Blues defensemen Colton Parayko, Torey Krug, and Marco Scandella are both still available, reports The Fourth Period. The Blues attempted to move Krug to the Philadelphia Flyers this summer but he invoked his no-trade clause, halting the deal. There’s no shortage of teams in need of defensive help this Spring and the Blues have something for everyone – offering stout defense in Parayko, strong offense in Krug, and good all-around play in Scandella. But salary cap will be a likely concern in any negotiations, as both Krug and Parayko carrying a $6.5MM cap hit and Scandella set at $3.275MM. All three carry either full or modified no-trade clauses.

    So you’re just going to hold onto Schultz and scratch Ryker Evans? Make it make sense

      I can’t make it make sense. I don’t know how much you can get for Shultz. But now that they are out of the race it’s time to let the kids play.

      They also need to get better kids, more prospects. Holding onto older, diminishing players is really a Benning thing…

      This is part of the trade deadline game. Play up your UFAs so that the other teams think they are more valuable. Schultz will go, and if Noone wants him, they will start playing Ryker right after the trade deadline

    Eberle is nearly 34, Francis signed Yamamoto and Bellemare and let Sprong go, The blueline depth and the goaltending was not addressed last summer. Bottom line, Francis is not good at his job, And Hakstol has never won anything at the professional level.

      Joey Daccord has been great

      The goaltending has been the least of their problems. They’re top 10 in goals allowed per game and 5th in the league in save percentage.

      He has and he lost the job back to Grubauer which tells you how good he’s been since he returned.

      You can’t stop babbling about Sprong and Tatar. Seems about right.

    Ryker Evans got eaten alive more times than not after his pretty good first stint. Schultz is solid, plays well with Dumo who’s on for another year. I’m not saying they’ll re-sign Schultz but there probably isn’t a huge market for him at the moment (though I imagine someone would take.. I liked the idea of him and Eberle to Edmonton), so in theory this makes sense, but it certainly isn’t what I would do given the power to run the team, as you hopefully have already gathered from my previous comments. It also makes sense in the context that wilf pointed out: the decision-making thus far has been questionable and hereby continues that trend, ergo it follows (aside from the blue line bit (I think the goaltending has been set all along – they’ve always known Daccord was gonna be great and that Grubauer would eventually click…I guess I just agree wholeheartedly about the choices at forward and the coaching re: forwards too). I bet he seriously considered letting Yanni go too! Someone needs to enroll in “Character 101” with Tortorella and the entire NHL broadcasting panoply. I’d love to eat my words in less than a year, please.

    Francis has no clue on how to maximize assets; he’s guaranteeing Kraken fans years of mediocrity.

    I can’t believe The Blues still have Parayko. He is abysmal. They probably can’t get rid of him because who in their right mind would accept him?

      Come on man. You should probably do at least a little bit of research before you post something like this.

    Parayko has been one of their better players.
