I got to admit this is the first time NHL deadline was excited in my lifetime congratulations NHL for not being so predictable for the first time
Thanks for covering all the hockey news bud.
Ducks unloaded guys they didn’t want next year and now have new guys to evaluate. Ducks GM is looking to have every 6’5” disappointment at some point.
Some Wild fan didn't understand why Guerin made the moves he made as if he went "all in" . Looking at the moves IMO they didn't. But I think it's understandable to make a lot of moves in the West because it is fairly wide open to win, maybe EXCEPT for COL., no team is unbeatable. On the other hand, it DOESN"T make sense to push "all the chips in" to win the East IF you are the NYR because you are clearly NOT the dominant team ( which they will play tomorrow shorthanded on D AGAIN ).
The day finally came. Good riddance Klinger
I hope K. Miller learned something from his brain cramp suspension incident. The team has had to play 5 D because of the Kane cap nonsense & OTT specifically planned to use it against them & did it well. They have also had to play 1 Fwd short in the PHI game ( again cap reasons ) & then Motte gets his head smashed against the glass by Watson of OTT in the 1st period last night. The reason I say he needs to learn something is his play , along w/his partner Trouba, has been bad too many times this season & especially the last 4 games before his suspension.
Pittsburgh keeps postponing the inevitable. With the Bruins, Canes and Devils they have no way of advancing past the second round and then they go into next year with an old team that is one more year older.
The wild did great they gave Anaheim next to nothing and said to pat verbeek this all your getting chump. Honestly what waste of 7mil all Anaheim got was a 4th, ahl body, and player who can say nope I am not signing for your team even if you traded for my rights. He couldn't trade anyone else for assets. What joke of a GM…
Yea we got fleeced for asplund. Wtf. Should have been worth a 3rd. Maybe settle for a 4th but not a 7th
As a DRW fan, I am extremely happy with the deals of Hronek and Bert. I'm also happy with Sundqvist's deal as he comes to a team and can make an impact in terms of the way he plays and the return is good for a free player we picked up.
Vrána, is still the scapegoat and there are Pro's & Con's.
Good that everyone knows today that he is not part of the team, including himself. Questions will always remain for an even longer time about how the parties handle it all.
What I like most is that Det & Blues make a deal that is very team friendly for both parties and parts of that deal means that the speculation will continue. However, this deal also gives Vrána new opportunities to find himself and what he wants to do with his career, and Blues is a club that can give him those opportunities today. I hope it will be a Win/Win for all three here, only time will tell what will be what in the end.
Best of all, these deals also create space in the form of Cap space and greater opportunities for our talents to get ice time in RW soon, including more high end draft picks.
* Ned is recalled, as Husso has a minor injury and it is planned that Ned start some games soon….
The Canucks will probably trade their last 1st rounder for the 2023 draft, on draft day.
Guerin is just a solid GM…
Berube, Fitzpatrick and Pouliot are ALL up on waivers.
Montreal "laundered" Bonino…haha…nice! What did Pitt give up in this three way deal, if anything?
Greenway will be interesting.
Love Ottawa's moves.
Detroit can sign JVR in a few months for nothing.
thank you for the constant updates only reason im keepin up with trades
Dallas traded Brendan Morrow for Joe Morrow in 2013. But they weren't related
Ritchie is a familiar name: C Ritchie (Oshawa); N Ritchie out of Brandon; R Ritchie (Prince Albert); E. Ritchie – out of Sarnia;
Another year gone and the Wild still have dumba. Wish they could get rid of him.
Pat Verbeek has revealed to the world and to Ducks fans everywhere just how horrible he is as a GM. This is absolutely brutal. Fire him immediately.
Greenway wasn't in the dog house because of not scoring, he was in the dog house because he overslept and got scratched on a second half of a back to back where they were already a man short which forced them to play 11-7, missed a team meeting, and constantly needs pep talks from the GM just to put in a fraction of effort. He'll be a "fun" project for the Sabres now.
Klingberg has awful +/- numbers in the last years
I'm not sure if this is a good trade
Why everyone think Guerin fleeced sabres? Sabres had three 2nd rd picks. Minny got latest of them. Don't think granato might have some ideas about greenway? He coached him with national dev program. Just like he coached tage. Let's give it some time.
Can't imagine it being a confidence boost knowing you've been traded for a 7th round pick.
Asplund has shown promise as a good defensive forward. I imagine Nashvilles system could turn his career around. The 7th doesn't really shock me though, he's been terrible this year
Asplund was soft as cotton in Buffalo. Here in Sabre land, we've seen enough of those guys…
i think buffalo should have put more effort into this trade deadline
your work and effort and dedication and passion is always appreciated! thank you for all that you do!!
ZOHORNA TO TORONTO SOMEWHAT REDEEMS THEM OF THE AWFUL DECISION TO MOVE CURTIS DOUGLAS!! LOVE ZO!
Fletcher is the reason the Flyers are in an unrecoverable tail spin the sooner he gets fired the better. Im honestly thinking he is doing this on purpose cause nothing else explains the train wreck of deals and non deals that he has made since coming here
Sry as soon as I saw you Koo loo Koo Koo loo loo loo eh
