Julien BriseBois on acquiring Oliver Bjorkstrand & Yanni Gourde

Welcome home, Yanni!!!
This trade was imminent; will help spread minutes throughout line-up. I mean who doesn't love watching Kuch and teammates alike double shift throughout games, but it's not sustainable in the playoffs. Nice work, JBB.
So so happy to get Yanni back
but essymont leaves…what the hell… he was amazing!
LFG ⚡️⚡️
Great trade. The picks won't help us with current core to contend. Yanni + Bjorkstrand are great fits. Should target D core now and include perbix in the deal to make the finances work
I'm kinda surprised the Lightning did anything…
but I won't ever question Julien given his track record…
Yannis home 😂
One of the smartest moves Julien made to get Yanni back. I felt bad for Yanni… watching him on the Kraken as they were not using him to his full potential. The Bolts will be in Beast Mode now!!👍
Thanks for the picks, y'all 😎 Treat my boy Bjorky right, he's been a gem for us.
Love the fact that JBB is usually dealing for something other than a rental. Our bottom 6 will be stronger going into the playoffs and maybe we can pick up a heavy hitter for fourth line with the $800k left in cap space.
