We knew that was coming. Bye Leo, we barely knew you but you were serviceable.

For Faulk and a 5th rounder.

Jordan Leopold to MIN from CBJ.

What a surprise.

 

[Samkow]

Cool, we got back more than we gave. Too bad Falk sucks.

 

[jackets4life]

I don't give a Falk. Glad to have the 5th back though.

 

[DJA]

It's Falk* by the way

 

[WannabeFinn]

holy crap we got Justin Faulk?!

 

[dru]

Dominos!

Is Sportrac correct that Faulk has a 4.833 cap hit thru at least 2019?

Don't blame me. Some one kept editing my title.

 

[Cowumbus]

2015 5th?

The twitter dude I got this from typed the wrong guy. Justin Faulk is really good. Justin Falk sucks. We got Justin Falk.

At least he's a big defensemen, maybe he can clear the crease since nobody we have will

 

[Fro]

getting a 5th this year (vs 5th in 16 we gave up) and a defenseman for Springfield is a good deal for us...

 

[EspenK]

Well Falk me. I'd rather have a guy that sucks than another 5 million 5 years left contract.

 

[1857 Howitzer]

 

[blahblah]

Works for me.

 

[Socks]

Any issues anyone has with the trade (and I doubt there are any) should be cleared up with this. Jordyn got her dad back!

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Good for you, Jordyn - and Jordan.

Just awesome

I don't know much about Leopold. Is he good?

Falk is, well.. He punches a guy for a teammate occasionally but has a habit of taking dumb penalties. If you get good Falk, he's a bottom pairing guy and if you get bad Falk, he's AHL level.

#CBJ GM Jarmo Kekalainen says Justin Falk will report to the big club. Kevin Connauton is out "a while."

Cool. Now we have Clarkson, Dubi, Hartnell, and Falk to take dumb penalties.

Leopold was steady and solid in his games here. He's a good bottom pair guy. Does everything well but not special. You'll like him
