Similar feelings to this that I had with O'Gara. Was passed by too many guys. Wish him well, as long as he doesn't score against the Bruins.
Ha haHopefully you hate a lot more soon.........But understand it.
Got the 3rd back.
Frankie goes to Hollwood, Florida? Not awful. When you look at it in combo with the last trade, it's basically taking away Vatrano, adding a rental defenseman who could be signed if we need him next year, and upgrading our third round pick.
I'm not knowledgeable enough to assess the value of the third factor; does anyone really know what picks 93-124 look like? It's good, but probably not mindbogglingly good.
But losing Vatrano's not a disaster; yes, he'll improve with getting some ice time in Florida. But we're all stocked up on young forwards here, and considering we were down to our 10th D in the playoffs last year, Holden provides some value.
So...I'll just have to relax about this one. Good job, Sweens.
I can't use the like for some reason but well saidGood dealing by Sweeney, he basically managed to move up 20 spots in the draft here by re-couping that pick.
Sucks though, because I still like Vatrano. Still think he has a chance to make it, I wish him the best in Florida.
Love the people on here and Twitter saying he sucks and/or good riddance. He was literally a college free agent signing for nothing. He was valuable simply from the fact that it didnt cost them anything. The fact they turned him into a 3rd is even better.
Glad I got to watch most of that year in Providence, he was a treat to watch.

I guess that sums it up well.Hate it but understand it
