Kings News: Brayden McNabb + Jonathan Parker + Two 2nd's to LA for Fasching + Deslaurier ‎

[Jason Lewis]

Yikes. That's a good solid hockey deal honestly. But ouch, I was looking forward to Fasching.

Hope they get the names wrong

 

[R S]

Fantastic pickup guys. McNabb is a monster and a good prospect. Was a total beast back in his WHL days. He'll be able to slide in nicely for you going forward and longterm will make a nice replacement for guys like Mitchell/Regehr.

 

[Telos]

It stings, but honestly, how many RW's do we need? It's a pretty fair prospect swap as is now. Maybe a lesser prospect going the other way too.

 

[northernKing]

Hope it's not just McNabb coming back for Fasching. Rather keep Hudson and his huge upside potential

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Nooooooooooo not Fasching!!!!!

 

[cyclones22]

If it is Fasching, that hurts. That being said, how many years away is he from the NHL and it looks like McNabb is one of Buffalo's top prospects and is or close to NHL ready.

Awesome. Seems like Dean picked a winner.

Yeah, I agree. Tough to see him go though.

 

[etherialone]

Hate the thought of losing Hudson he is the real deal but McNabb is right there too. A big Gravel type.

 

[Dubi Doo]

McNabb would be an awesome pick up.

Have watched him in Buffalo. Huge kid, good in his own end, physical, and can chip in offensively. Still developing and he's only 23.

Not quite. Mediocre is more accurate.

 

[rasarhdasd]

McNabb + two 2nd round picks says Bob Mac for Deslauries too.

 

[HeadInjury]

We have Carter, Brown and Toffoli (eventually) on the right side for a long, long time, so dealing strength to acquire need would make sense.

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

what the hell is happening

 

[Telos]

McNabb + two 2nd round picks says Bob Mac for Deslauries too.

That is a fantastic trade. I love this trade if it ends up like that.

 

[Fat Elvis]

F me

Hudson, Nic Des for McNabb and 2 2nds

 

[Raccoon Jesus]

Yes, but it's not like Fasching was going to be here anytime soon either.

 

[Reclamation Project]

WOW! We're getting our Regehr picks back!!!

 

[Dave33]

McNabb + two 2nd round picks says Bob Mac for Deslauries too.

What the flying ****? DL must be really high on McNabb, but thought the org was really high on Deslauriers as well.

 

[HeadInjury]

That is a fantastic trade. I love this trade if it ends up like that.

Amen

 

[HockeyCA]

F me

Hudson, Nic Des for McNabb and 2 2nds

Yikes. I do not like this deal at all. Nic Des is just as good a prospect, if not better than Mcnabb. THe two 2nds are nice.. I am assuming Dean is going to flip one or both of those in other deals. But man, that is ALOT to pay I think.

 

[northernKing]

Maybe our 2nd back from Regehr deal and Minnesotans 2nd from pominville deal?? Maybe LA looking to package these picks for vanek

 

[cyclones22]

Maybe those 2nds are going to be used for a winger today.

 

[Mit Yarrum]

Loves the big hit, big slapper.

Doesn't use the slappper enough, and lacks some footspeed. Questionable decisions in own end.

Good pickup for LA, IMO.

 

[ean]

the timing of this one has me puzzled...why do this at the trade deadline when none of the players involved are NHLers...

 

[eleventy]

Holy **** Deano got 2 2nd rdrs out of this?
