I thought we could get a 1st for him... f*** dumping salary is a tough job

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Oh it’s terrible. I hate this

 

[tunnelvision]

This must be a joke....

That's absolutely horrible value for a top-six winger

 

[Finner]

Dislike

 

[WannabeFinn]

Really? Instead of Nyquist? Gross

 

[VT]

Is this some kind of stupid joke?

 

[I3LI3]

my heart: absolutely shattered.

gosh dang, I’m gonna miss my birthday sharer immensely. frick.

this hurts as bad as when Calvy left us.

 

[BB88]

Really? Instead of Nyquist? Gross

Absolutely nobody would take him.

Just look around the league.

Just brutal situation but have to try look at this with Gaudreau for Bjorkstrand

Was shocked to see this still

 

[ClevelandJacketFan]

That's...a choice.

Not a very good one, either.

 

[KallioWeHardlyKnewYe]

Wish it was a different player. But CBJ are still better today than they were last season so on the whole, good.

 

[MissADD]

Very big sad

 

[LJ7]

Would have rather paid a 2nd to get rid of Nyquist but who knows if that was even an option.

Bjorkstrand's contract is so good. He'll be a fan favorite in Seattle. Laine better ball out or else.

 

[Socks]

Wow that sucks. Just or Patty’s extension? Or another move?

 

[GoJackets1]

f***

 

[KJ Dangler]

Opening room for Marchenko and Chinakov .. still may see Nyquist moved next

 

[DJA]

Gotta understand how hard it is to shed cap in this environment.

 

[Keduzin]

The price seems pretty cheap to me even though Bjorkstrand is not an elite player but his contract is/was good

 

[BB88]

Would have rather paid a 2nd to get rid of Nyquist

With the Flyers ask being a 1st round pick I doubt that was on the table.

There’s just no teams to dump contracts

 

[SavesEmNot]

Damn. Just as I was thinking about how potent our offense could be next year, we trade one of our better scorers. I mean the offense should still be strong, but I'm big on having depth.

 

[Lays]

Holy underpayment. Bjorkstrand is a stud

 

[liv4toast]

 

[thebus88]

f***ing hell.

Some of you got what you wanted.

 

[Lays]

Cap needs to be fixed somehow. No reason Pacioretty and Bjorkstrand should be traded for peanuts

There's enough cap now. Nyquist will get good value on deadline
