Trade Deadline 2016

[inkman]

Real question is why was Florida so eager to get rid of him for such a lousy return.

 

 

The only thing I can figure is because he's a seriously one dimensional player.  His 22 goal 2 assist campaign a season ago is a head scratcher. 

[pastajoe]

pastajoe, did you just post that McKenzie tweeted Drouin to Buffalo, and then delete? I just looked at his feed and did not see that.

Yes, but found out it was a fake so I deleted.

We're going to have the Stewart move's after 3:00PM.

Pirri gets a sixth and Weber is worth a third?

 

I guess anything really IS possible.

[apuszczalowski]

Did Bettman make another "screw the Sabres" move and tell the league to ignore GMTM? Uncle Bryan felt bad and threw him a bone with Amerks trade.

no, the sabres just have crap to sell. The decent players they have they want to keep, the rest the other teams just aren't interested in. No one really makes hockey trades today, it's buying and selling of expiring asserts, and the Sabres aren't buyers and have little of value to sell

[Hoss]

So much for the 2nd round offers, huh Hoss?

Considering multiple reporters reported them there was no other information available. This doesn't validate anything you said. You were wrong.

Surprising that Pirri is only worth a 6th, but for all intents & purposes Weber was worth a 2016 5th. Time value of picks & money.

A 3rd next year is only worth a 5th this year?  I get the whole time value concept but that sounds off IMO.

Forgot that it was next year's pick. Somehow it slipped my mind.

What was I wrong about?  Have you ever once considered that some people might know more than you?

The only information we had available was that Florida had offers of a second for Pirri. You suggested Johnson for Pirri. I said no because they had reportedly gotten offers of a second which Johnson isn't nearly worth. You suggested a backups injury increases Johnson's value to them which is accurate but not enough to make him worth a second-round asset. Then I mentioned how others are available for less, which is still true. Johnson still isn't worth a second. Clearly the info we had on Pirri was wrong (or Tallon hit his head this morning), but the context of that conversation was you suggesting that Johnson was worth an asset that was reportedly worth a 2nd. That's not true.

[That Aud Smell]

No idea who Pirri is.

 

He's scored 20+ goals in a season (shortened?) and netted a 6th?!

 

The fook?

I'll take that as a no.

Panthers and Bruins have issued statements that they are done.

Looks like the Bruins messed up and released their annual email a little early, as this just arrived in my inbox.

Eriksson staying put, apparently. Bruins released their "standing pat" press release moments ago (a bit ahead of schedule, I think).

So now McGinn gets moved?

[Brawndo]

Boston just sent out a press release, looks like Loui is staying put 

[Hoss]

CHI made late call to VAN. We'll see if it goes anywhere

Sometimes the best deadline move is to keep the rental you already have

Yet LeBrun saying Bruins not done?!

Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun

Bruins among the teams showing late interest in J-M Liles...

Russell to DAL

 

 

As weak and soft as their defense is, and known to be the most porous over the last 5 years....... Russell is the first guy that comes to mind to fix that.  :rolleyes:

[Brawndo]

Detroit done for the day

[That Aud Smell]

"Worst" trade deadline day ever?

 

Worst trade deadline day ever.

A 3rd next year is only worth a 5th this year?  I get the whole time value concept but that sounds off IMO.

Yep. A 3rd next year + $'s this year pretty much equals a 5th this year.
