Fuck I hope we at least got a return and not just a dump
MonarchChonarch
That’s bullshit. You’re telling me Cernak is the future of our defense but Sergachev isn’t?
Basil_Normal
Not a fan of this whatsoever. Horrific decision to trade a guy with Sergachev’s upside by JBB. Zero reason to not move Cernak instead
Wnsp
oh no…
CruelRuin
holy fucking shit
this is a massive all-in move for the next like 3 yrs
Dentistchair
Does this mean room for stammer?
strokesoflightning
How do we got from 1-2 mil away from Stammer to trading the future #1 Dman? Sheary and Jeannot are right there, what the fuck is the thought process
nautica5400
Hot take
Sergachev isn’t a 8.5 mil dman
I’ve had this view for a while if u can get a taker, u make the move.
I’m more disappointed no one is attached to him such as sheary or jeannot….
MrSCR23
JBB…WTF???
Is he that worried that Serg’s leg injury was change him for the worse? Was he somehow a better asset to move than Cernak?
I…I need to drink something hard. 5’O clock somewhere right?
dolewhiplash
There has to me more to this. You don’t move an 8M dollar young defenseman for 1-2M in cap space. There has to be more coming

This sub, I swear…serg was not an 8.5 dman.
Why not Cernak, Tanner, or sheary? Probably because nobody asking for them and returns not worth it.
Yall want stammer or not?

Pain.
ManateeMonk4
Idk about this one man, Moser is decent I suppose but are we betting on Cernak to be the future of our blue line… time will tell on this one
Sainte-Devote
why?
CruelRuin
i really wonder if the 2nd half of the season soured jbb on sergachev…seemed like a lot of the dzone woes that plagued the team in the 1st half of the season vanished when sergachev was out
gongshow26
I hope this doesn’t fuck with kucherov man. I know you can’t keep guys around just for his sake but this is the shit that fucks with a guy like kuch
BanditPixy
Holy fuck
etherealcaitiff
I’m a long time Sergachev hater, so this is good news to me. No more opposite blue line drop passes into an opponent breakaway goal.

Serg has trade protection kicking in a day. Love sergy and believe he has potential but in the event he doesn’t take the next step, that’s an untradeable contract. We also don’t know the severity of his injury, for all we know, he might not be progressing in a way that’s making our front office feel good about his contract.
The league also has plenty of LHD d-men and wouldn’t be hard to replace for the same cap hit
Good for JBB for showing some balls, but I think there’s more on the way than just a Stamkos extension.
mawhii
I actually really like this move. Sergy’s not an 8.5M dman and that contract won’t age well.
Good return too.
KILLER_IF
OMG. Never would I have ever expected this.

HockeyRules9186
I did it was/is the only way they could McD trade. I’ve said this repeatedly 3 LD and on getting 8.5 per year playing 3rd pair not going to happen
fundip12
essentially traded drouin for 2-3 good years of sergachev and are now flipping that for geekie, cap space and the ability to give stamkos the opportunity to retire a bolt.
we needed cap space. one of cernak or serg was going. my guess is far more demand/return for serg.
its a trade that needed to be made regardless. Hopefully we can push these next 2-3 years as our cup window with the likes of hedman and stamkos closes in 3 years. now sign stammer for 3 years/7mil and we can sure up the lineup with the remaining 7.

Stammer picks up phone: “Why hello,JBB. Looks like you have space now.”
LeanMrfuzzles
Knew a move like this was coming all summer. Wasn’t thinking it was actually going to be Sugar, but it’s not really surprising.

Jeannott traded to LA
GrayJinjo
I’m okay with this. Thank you Serg for everything.
I wonder how mad Kuch will be about this.

I went to the final Coyotes game and Moser won the Coyotes team award for “Hardest Working Player”. (Also caught a signed hat by him at the end)
KodiakJedi
This trade along with Jeannot frees up a ton of cap room. You can now sign Stammer, extend Hedman and go after another piece and we got younger. I really liked Sergachev but he was paid like a top 10 defenseman and he hasn’t played like it.
rhodesleadnowhere
Ugh, whatever man. I can’t get attached anymore.
NinjaTroll471
Damn making some big moves!! Curious to see how it goes
Damn. Gonna miss Sergy. But we free up tons of cap space now to be competive IMO. Damn it hurts.
PaulRyansWifesSon
I’m a Sergy truther and I still like this trade. I think he might not be worth $8.5 *today*(close though) but he’s a lot more talented than a lot of us give him credit for, and if he puts it all together in the right scheme as the 1D on the PP he’d be worth $10 mil AAV. Stoked for Geekie, with him and Howard I love having some young potential upside.
OverdosedOnApathy24
Well color me shocked. That’s a huge overpayment we no longer have to make.
What can we do with the opportunity we’ve been given?
