Confirmed with Link: [BUF/MIN] Buffalo acquires Jordan Greenway for a 2023 2nd (from VGK) and 2024 5th

[Doug Prishpreed]

Would have preferred Puljujärvi but I don't think we wanted to give up the prospect.

 

[TheMistyStranger]

Chicken pandemic also over.

I'll believe it when they're back to 79 cents a dozen

Would have preferred Puljujärvi but I don't think we wanted to give up the prospect.

Oh God no. Greenway for sure over PuJu

 

[EichHart]

If we got Greenway and shored up our D I'd be giving Adams A+ at the deadline. We gotta fix our D.

 

[Ace]

I'm willing to keep an open mind, but I'm very reluctant to take a GM at his word when he's ultimately trying to sell me his player. Ultimately I can't fault Adams for seeing that size and toughness was an issue that needed to be addressed.

Granato will know what he needs to about Greenway. He saw him when he’d have had the biggest chip he would have had on his shoulder.

 

[Zman5778]

Would have preferred Puljujärvi but I don't think we wanted to give up the prospect.

For what we need, I take Greenway over Puju every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

 

[BuffaloGooner]

I was really getting restless but Greenway is a guy I truly believe can be revitalized offensively. Our forwards really are horrible defensively besides Quinn and the elder statesmen. This is much much much needed.

 

[HaNotsri]

If Krueger we’re here he’d have found a way to leave Tage as a grinding winger and make Greenway the 1C

Skinner would be driving the zamboni at this point.

I like this trade. We needed size and better board play even if he isn't a violent monster. I will probably complain when he's taking all those penalties but I think he can work anywhere in our bottom nine. Could be entertaining with Mitts and Cozens.

 

[WhereAreTheCookies]

And thats why you go get him

Not to nitpick their fine detective work, but Dahlin has 82 hits and Samuelsson has 80. He would be 3rd in hits on the team.

 

[kirby11]

Dig it. Hope he's able to integrate into the lineup like Jost has

Oh he’d have had Skinner killed by now.

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

We gotta fix our D.

same

 

[Ace]

This is definitely worth any perceived risk people think your third best 2nd rounder and a 4th next year are worth. They’ve drafted so many people high lately already…three more to come this year.

I'm not a fan of either player, but Puljujärvi seems to have more upside, while having better defensive impacts. But maybe he doesn't have more upside? That could be the draft pedigree talking. I don't tend to notice of focus on either player when I watch these teams.

Sorry they did clarify after *leads forwards* in hits

 

[elchud]

Good trade. Would like it more if he forced Olofsson out of the lineup but someone else will sit when Tuch is back.

 

[Ace]

Side thing that makes me happy…

addressing a forward with size and defensive ability with trade instead of trying to draft it. Chasing it in the draft is how you waste draft picks

 

[Doug Prishpreed]

I was really getting restless but Greenway is a guy I truly believe can be revitalized offensively. Our forwards really are horrible defensively besides Quinn and the elder statesmen. This is much much much needed.

I'm not even sure he needs to realize any offensive upside. If he has a positive defensive impact it's a win imo.

 

[Paxon]

ps sorry for not knowing he had term, lets see some Donnie development and upside

Thinking maybe Kyle is going to retire as well ?

He ought to. He does not have much gas anymore.

Sometimes even when they chase that in the draft it doesn't translate when those kids are no longer significantly larger than their peer group.

Glad to see KA did see they needed some more grit in the line-up.

 

[BFLO]

We won't miss the picks or the cap space if he busts. Worth a gamble.

Where's the equivalent trade for a D-man that we've been clamoring for?

 

[nickdawg95]

nice, I expect to see him next Mitts/cozens

 

[Paxon]

Not to nitpick their fine detective work, but Dahlin has 82 hits and Samuelsson has 80. He would be 3rd in hits on the team.

You also can't really compare hits between teams. The scorers at each arena are wildly different when it comes to hits.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

He ought to. He does not have much gas anymore.

He is struggling it's plain to see and a bit of a elephant in the room, but I do hope we can be respectful for his service, leadership, and what he has gone through(medical) here.

 

[Ace]

I'm not even sure he needs to realize any offensive upside. If he has a positive defensive impact it's a win imo.

If you made a wish on a monkey’s paw while watching Olofsson in a drought like he’s in again now for a player who could offer you the things Vic doesn’t if they’re not going to score…You’d get Jordan Greenway
