bg17 Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 Just now, Trettioåtta said: This must be Adams lashing out in desperation to prove he is trying to do trades. Right? We gave up an earylish 2nd for a 13th forward? Caps fans seem very happy with this trade though... Most 13th forwards don’t play 81 games.

Buffalonill Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 A 2nd for a 4th line player . And Andrew Mangiapane went for a 2nd . Buffalo basically just gave Washington their second back for free 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RochesterExpat Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 This is a terrible trade in terms of value, but I’m fine with the player as a 4th line addition. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LabattBlue Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 A pick in the top half of the 2nd round for a guy no one has heard of, and is 26 years old? Plan the friggin’ parade…NOW! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carmel Corn Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 (edited) This year’s Eric Robinson??? Except for the fact GMKA overpaid vs. last year. Is this a better deal than trading a 2nd for Greenway….not IMHO Edited June 29 by Carmel Corn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't we established in every single active thread on this board that we're going to have to over pay to bring an NHL roster player here? This is what that looks like. Even the non-glamorous moves are going to be that way. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prove us won't Kevyn As a 4th liner or rotational 13th guy, he’s an improvement over Jost. But paying a second is a joke. Like if this was some dude signed to a $1.2x1 deal during the free agency, I’d be content with the move. I don’t have a problem with the player but giving up a 2nd is hilarious. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trettioåtta Posted June 29 Report Share Posted June 29 I assume* that we have some internal fancy stats that mean we think his defensive game is great? Quite frankly I don't really care about winning trades at this point. If this fills one of our absolute needs and will make us better next year then great. However, from what is publicly available, it looks like we just gave away a good second round pick and didn't get better. *Generous take incoming Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just saying if this was a FA signing, I’d be fine with it. It’s the trading a 2nd seems like an overpay. Even considering the 43rd overall pick only has something like a 1 in 3 chance of playing a full season in the NHL, it’s kind of a wild valuation for Beck.
