Confirmed with Link: Bowen Byram and Jordan Greenway to Chicago for 4th Overall, 45th Overall, Louis Crevier

[Jetskiis]

I assume the guy is slightly Pejorative Slured. Because that's one of the most impressive physical toolkits I've ever seen. Hope they'll give him more rope than they gave Kesselring.

He had 25 points on a buns blackhawks team. He could come close to replacing Byram's point total on a good sabres team

cope is unreal over on the Blackhawks board. Ive never seen so many corporate bootlickers in my life. Its like Davidson is their cousin or something.

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

I’m still in a state of pleasantly stunned disbelief that we didn’t send *anything* else back. Like how did Chicago not even get a draft pick out of this?

Also big ups to Jarmo for pulling the “call the bad/overwhelmed GM” card, having the cojones to ask for the moon, and the poise to not bust out laughing as Davidson willingly gave all these assets up if they worked this out over the phone

 

[Dubi Doo]

There's absolutely no way he is getting that, and if he was- the return would be insane because Chicago clearly overvalues him.

I'm excited and nervous. Should be interesting. Im thinking a futures based deal. More assets to add some depth.

Given the return, 12.5M per year seems more than likely at this point.

 

[Hull2Roenick2Kane]

This is absolutely a steal. Mittelstadt turned into one of these two guys.

Bjorck will be in the NHL next year.

I think Malhotra will be gone by Vancouver but I could be wrong.

Yeah, we are all pleased with the return but you guys are getting a very good player in Byram and a decent player in Greenway.

I appreciate the sentiment, but Byram was on the trading block for two years and its hard to swallow this level of overpayment. Anything short of playoffs and top 5 Norris voting (because Hawks will pay 12 mil for him now) for him will be a dissapointment.

Davidson was the guy that use to pick up players from the airport. That was his strong suit and probably still is.

 

[OkimLom]

I thought I was going to be sad about any Bowen Byram trade. I was wrong.

Seeing him gone, in a vacuum, would’ve brought down the mood, but seeing what Jarmo was able to accomplish with the asset management, it’s too much of a win for me to be upset.

 

[Ace]

I still can’t wrap my head fully around it. It’s that lopsided a deal.

Getting off the Greenway deal…while RECEIVING the extra second?

How? How did this even happen?

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Davidson had to outbid Grier

 

[Ralonzo]

Can 4 and 20 get us to 2?

it can get you to '69



Boy it's gonna be a tough sleep today, but the flash thought is 4OA is not something the Sabres are moving with the draft being held where it is this year, but if they do it's going to be at the draft and it's going to be a monster.

If they do trade #4 it won't be until draft day where they can announce the trade on stage

 

[Deep Blue Metallic]

Only once and that was on Kaiden Guhle -

Teravainen to the rescue initially, then sees Crevier coming and says "ya, you got this".

lmao

 

[Steddy33]

What an absolute insane trade.

Wonder what San Jose was offering.

9 and what.

So can some martinis and a decent dinner.

Funny that I'm about half a mile from where he went to HS.

Went from the draft day being a bit boring for the hosts to being right at the top of the order AND getting back into the 2nd round... tidy work if they keep them all for sure.

 

[Chainshot]

Or was Grier supposedly offering 2OA and thus Buffalo got 4 and 45 plus the Greenway cap dump?

I think I'd rather have 2 but maybe Forton is set on someone he knows will be there at 4

I like Bjorck more than Stenberg. If he's gone, there is also Malhotra.

Or they throw this coup away at an old goalie.

 

[Ace]

It feels like between Chicago talking moving up with San Jose from 4 to 2 and not getting anywhere and San Jose locking in on Stenberg and moving Eklund for 9…we totally benefited from sticking our nose into their back and forth.

Chicago knew they couldn’t get Stenberg…and now knew that they were competing for Byram.

Thanks San Jose!

Leafs taking Mckenna is a lock.
Sharks taking Stenberg is also a lock.
Canucks taking Malhotra is practically a lock. (I do not see any universe where Manny doesn't draft his son, especially when he is consensus #1 or #2 center)
Sabres take Bjorck.

That would work for me. Still feel bad for Malhotra also having to deal with his dad being HC in Vancouver though.

 

[Zman5778]

Bucci is saying that San Jose was offering 9, 27 and a prospect for Byram.

THAT'S the leverage Jarmo used.

 

[Ehran]

Sabres take Bjorck.

Replacement for Matthew Savoie?
