thewookie1 Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 I just don’t know anymore; the guy seems to be overpaid for and a PKer + hitter Then that Marino trade drops and I feel utterly deflated Quote

They're basing this on a 26 year old playing in Hershey. Uhm, sorry a young 26. Who gives a *****. You claim this type of player on waivers. Quote

Other teams give up seconds for serviceable defensemen like Marino. We're giving away a second for a scrub 4th liner. 1 Quote

triumph_communes Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 Lindy wants his tools. I wouldn’t judge it until we see what he does with him 2 Quote
Turbo44 Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 So………how’s KA going to add real players? Like top 4 d/top 6 forward Quote
jsb Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 I’m not sure where all the aghast is coming from, this trade has Lindy written all over it 3 Quote
Archie Lee Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 Not sure on the value, but he is, in my view, the sort of 4th line player that changes our make-up. Big, physical, blocks shots, kills penalties. As part of a larger strategy that comes to fruition over the next 3-4 days, I’m fine. Obviously there needs to be more. 6 Quote

All the best to him though. At least he's tough and can play hockey. Also Washington sucked last year so maybe he'll be better in Buffalo. 4 minutes ago, Archie Lee said: Not sure on the value, but he is, in my view, the sort of 4th line player that changes our make-up.

Gatorman0519 Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 4th round at best. KA is doing a Tim Murray right now. Quote
Mango Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 39 minutes ago, ... said: 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. Contextually this makes zero sense. Players don’t go “fine I’ll go to Buffalo, but only if you give my former team a 2nd. That’s the only way!” 1 2 1 Quote
nfreeman Posted June 29 Report Posted June 29 Seems like a respectable move to me. He's probably an upgrade over Robinson, Jost and Zemgus. As others have said, there of course needs to be much more over the next week. 2 Quote
