Confirmed Trade: [CHI/BUF] Bowen Byram, Jordan Greenway for Louis Crevier, 2026 1st round pick (4th overall), 2026 2nd round pick (45th overall)

[Djp]

So Buffalo was essentially able to trade Casey Mittlestadt and parlay it into a 4th overall pick...

NICEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

This is part of Eichel trade tree too

Eichel+ Mittlestadt+3rd+5th for Tuch, Krebs, 1st ( Ostlund) 2nd ( greenway)+ Byram

 

[toddkaz]

Reported a prospect coming back to or was that false reporting?

 

[DGLeafy]

I agree. Byram and the 4th overall pick in the draft should NEVER be associated with each other afaic

I may have been a bit extreme. But this trade is wild to me. Wild.

 

[Grinner]

Highway robbery.

 

[dgibb10]

Taking on a cap dump in Greenway too is the funniest part

 

[Fez Whatley]

I think Jarmo has Davidson's nudes or this trade doesn't make sense.

I'd rather have my nudes leaked than make this trade. It'd be more dignified

 

[kirby11]

Unless Chicago gets one of Ostlund or Helenius and it just hasn’t been mentioned yet, this is a 450+ foot grand slam to dead center by Jarmo

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

4th overall, not 4th round.

 

[MasterMatt25]

I think Jarmo has Davidson's nudes or this trade doesn't make sense.

Kyle is a handsome guy

 

[AcerComputer]

Buffalo turning 27, Kezserling and Byram into Chase Reid, 20 and much needed cap space for Tuch is absolutely incredible.

Stenberg and Reid are going #2 & #3. That's why CHI moved off the pick

 

[bossram]

This is an incredible price for Byram (with one year left on his deal and reportedly wants to hit UFA!!!).

4th overall, AND the 45th overall, AND taking on Greenway's deal.

Jarmo is back indeed.

 

[Thirty Seven]

Unreal, what a shit trade for Chicago

 

[Old Boys Club]

Sounds like Bowen byram is going to be making more money than McDavid shortly.

 

[The don godfather]

This trade will get nixed because Davidson was having the deadly combo scotch and eggs watch and see.

 

[Djp]

 

[Spearmint Rhino]

Got to be more to this or the 2nd is going from Buffalo?

Or someone needs to be drug tested

 

[Dougie Donuts]

At least Chicago has Caleb Wilson to look forward to.

 

[Devilsfan118]

Do you think the league is ever like

"Seriously, guys?"

during the trade call?

 

[MessierII]

If Byram was locked up it would make a bit more sense. They must be very confident they can get him extended.

 

[boredmale]

Lacombe, Hutson and Harley are kicking themselves for not waiting to sign a deal till now. They lost 10s of millions

McDavid is laughing all the way to the Bank

 

[Gil Gunderson]

Byram probably thought it was a prank call when Davidson offered him that contract.

 

[Chainshot]

4th ovr + 2nd + decent defensive prospect for Bo and Greenway. Thats it I’m pretty sure

Who is the prospect? I keep waiting to hear they added in 20 or McLeod or they've smuggled Dahlin into Byram's equipment bag or some other mild disaster.

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

Personally, I don't think Greenway is a cap dump and given his play when he cares, he's a rare type of player.

 

[TimeZone]

Anyone that watched Florida those playoffs knew huberdeau wasn’t that great

He was a perimeter player who wasn’t willing to get into the dirty area

That's really easy to say about a 115 point player in hindsight, absolutely nobody expected him to rapidly fall off and become a 40-50 point middle six winger during the regular season, even if you doubted his playoff ability.

The general perception was that Johnny Hockey had Tkachuk overperforming offensively at the time.

 

[dgibb10]

Wait, chicago is giving up ANOTHER player lmao.

Chicago fans can only hope it is a player with an NTC that refuses to waive
