TRADE: Jamie McGinn traded to Anaheim

[Hoss]

Per Friedman on air

 

LeBrun; Believe the return to Buffalo for McGinn is a conditional pick

 

McKenzie: Conditional 3rd from ANA for McGinn. Could become 2nd.

 

LeBrun: becomes a second if Anaheim reaches the conference finals.

Crosses fingers for Pirri

Can't wait for the 4th round pick we get

ANA has no 2d round pick this year.

A 3rd that could become a 2nd.

[nfreeman]

Well, that was a real roller-coaster of a deadline day.

 

Yeeeeeessshhh.

[That Aud Smell]

So, presumably in 2017?

[Randall Flagg]

That's fine by me.

[Taro T]

A 3rd that could become a 2nd.

Which is pretty much fair value. (Assumes it's this year's 3rd. Right?)

[Hoss]

It's a second if the Ducks reach the conference finals

[dudacek]

Is Lee stempniak really better than McGinn?

 

Also, price makes me think we won't need 4/4 million to re-sign him

[WildCard]

Well, I guess I'll be rooting for Anaheim to hit the WCF's this year

 

I wonder who the AHL call up is

Yeeeeeessshhh.

 

 

Sure was.

Honestly, which is better--their 3d rounder this year or their 2d next year?

[JJFIVEOH]

WOOHOO, so we'll have a marginal player in 4 years. Awesome! 

[Randall Flagg]

Better than having nothing in 4 years, if Jamie walks. Unless you think he was going to re-sign but now won't because we traded him?

I think their 2nd next year , will be used in a trade for sure.

[Crusader1969]

I think their 2nd next year , will be used in a trade for sure.

 

Agreed, Sabres could/should be buyers next deadline.

2nd next year would be nice. That's a valuable piece if you want to move it to get a player for a playoff push or something.

Sabres make it official

The Sabres have acquired a conditional 3rd-round pick in 2016 from Anaheim in exchange for forward Jamie McGinn. http://sabresdigitalpressbox.com/2016/02/29/sabres-acquire-conditional-third-round-pick-for-mcginn/ …

Maybe one of them dudes he just acquired from Ott'wa.

[Rasmus_]

That's fine, if it becomes a 2nd, this goes down exactly what we expected.  I feel bad for Johnson, but oh well.
