Confirmed Trade: [CHI/CBJ] Jones, 2021 1st (32OA), '22 6th for Boqvist, '21 1st (12OA), '21 2nd, '22 1st (protected)

[Just A Bit Outside]

Great deal from Chicago in all honesty 9.5 is a steal for Jones

It's a steal for Jones alright.

 

[jetsforever]

I say there's one more cup run in the Toews and Kane era.

Very unlikely
Possibly in the Jones era though

 

[LeafsandSharksfan]

Wonder if 12th OA and Boqvist gets it done?

Good call

 

[Static]

So when the repo men show up to the stadium...

 

[JoemAvs]

And its getting worse....

Bowman really goofed on this one...

 

[wonton15]

EIGHT YEARS at 9.5??

Makar and Hughes are buying dinner for their families tonight.

 

[King 88]

Oh boy just keeps getting worse

 

[Random schmoe]

 

[majormajor]

Use this one with the transparent background:

I really should have watermarked this thing if I had known how much use we'd be getting out of it.

If you make t-shirts I'll buy one.

 

[Dynamite Time]

My god that is horrible for Chicago, and I like Jones but damn.

 

[LeProspector]

Has Jones become the most underrated player on these board seemingly overnight? Jesus.
Its like fans only care about the contract, not the player.

 

[sens13]

Lol what massive overpay

 

[HarrisonFord]

That’s a spicy meatball

 

[jabubenice]

Makar and Hughes just sitting there laughing.

makar yes, hughes not so sure...

 

[Saucechucker99]

Don't like giving up Boqvist and then signing Jones to 9.5 mil for Chicago.

 

[Del Preston]

That's $76 million total for everyone out there without an abacus.

 

[Paulinbc]

Huh.

 

[super6646]

Damn Chicago gave a lot.

 

[Maurice of Orange]

I was going to say acquiring Jones at 9.5mil was a good pass for the Flyers but philly acquired Ristolainen today so that parade has been pissed upon.

 

[ddlennon]

loving these horrible trades its like half the gms are on acid tonight !!

 

[goonybird]

an absolutely ghastly contract

Welcome to a cap league where the contract is the only thing that matters.

 

[Sticktape]

9.5 would make him the 3rd highest paid defenceman in the league right now.

 

[PatriceBergeronFan]

Well worth it. Chicago is an odd fit but if you can trade for a Seth Jones and sign him for seven years, you do not decline.

Play bad for a few years you stop getting to live off your reputation.
