There's our 7th dman. Isn't he signed for next year as well? Maybe not.

I liked him with Calgary and was bummed for him when he was dealing with his psych issues. He has some upside if he can recapture some of that form.

 

[All Mighty]

Fine with me.

 

[AngelDuck]

Nice. Verbeek wheeling and dealing

 

[JonathnTaylorTavares]

Noooo. I hate that his name is Shillington

 

[goonsaredumb]

Verbeek cooking hard today damn son

I do wonder if mintyukov/zellweger/Helleson are sent down tomorrow in paper moves in case the Gulls make the playoffs. Probably not, but never know.

UFA after this season.

Seems like a great depth pickup

Pretty much all offense. Very bad defensive numbers in an admittedly small sample size (15 games or so).

 

[HanSolo]

Cleared the logjam for less than a full day.

Talented player but really redundant to have another (4rth)finesse offensive LHD. Plus we swap from a 6’4” 207 pound player to a 6’ 183 one which means even more opportunities to bump our goalie. I’m hoping this is temporary and for the Gulls since there isn’t any good waiver options today.

 

[Ducks DVM]

We are gonna need to draft a lot of future considerations this year the way that Verbeek keeps handing them out like water.

 

[Firequacker]

He was with the Islanders for what, literally fifteen minutes?

This is so he can be the 7th D at the NHL level and get paid to watch the team play. Also, he can keep the d-men with the Gulls stick with the Gulls, since it's only youths we can bring up. We needed this buffer d-man for the rest of this season to allow all of our youths to play at the NHL and AHL levels.

Better to owe you than to cheat you out of it.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't Kylington have a ton of promise a couple years ago?

I wouldn't expect it either, but knowing Cronin? He'll play him.

Cronin will do what Verbeek tells him to do in a situation like this.

Verbeek has way more lineup decision influence than people realize IMO

Future considerations are not specific and can be almost anything as long as something goes back to the other team.

I would guess a lot of them get fulfilled at the draft when trades spots.

When you say it can be almost anything, could even be food lol. A lot of people like mexican food and you can get really good authentic mexican food in the Anaheim/Santa Ana area and they can put it in a cooler with dry ice and ship it to the other teams GM. Can't really get that quality of mexican food on Long Island.

This is my view of it too, as long as he's used as the 7th I don't care. Dumo was moved so all the kids could play, this trade SHOULD be to have a 7th d we don't have to call up from the gulls

Well it can’t be for cash. Kris Draper made sure that wouldn’t happen again.

Do future considerations actually have any true value, at all? I thought it was just a place holder so something is "technically" offered from both teams.
