Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun 13s
According to @GMillerTSN, Preds get Patrick Eaves, a prospect and a 3rd-round pick for Legwand

If the prospect is nothing special, then that's a great price for DET. Oh to be a buyer at this deadline!

 

[Addison Rae]

Talk about a buyers market.

 

[Tiranis]

On the other hand you don't want to give guys away for crappy packages just for the sake of change (see Phaneuf trade) and end up in a Flames situation.

It's funny, people talk about the Flames but forget that what started their descent was selling on Phaneuf for a pittance.

Awful day to be a seller this year. Paul Gaustad > Thomas Vanek.

 

[nekyvGkOPaiWICTscLl6]

This franchise had an opportunity to turn a **** year into one with at least a fresh outlook.
Instead, 1 step forward, 2 steps back.

This franchise is a shill.

Some of these returns are absolutely shocking....

 

[canuck4life16]

we could have a buyer and given the seller team a low price

 

[Nucker101]

Buyer's market. Horrible luck for this franchise and glad Kesler was kept. Hope the FA rumours are false. Look forward to the draft.

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

^Tell me about it. Glad Gillis didn't bite; although I'm hoping it's because he thought the offers weren't good enough, rather than ownership forcing him to sit on it.

Goalie Michal Neuvirth is heading back to the Sabres in the Jaroslav Halak deal.

 

[nekyvGkOPaiWICTscLl6]

Also, D. Roy got a better return than Vanek.

If this was 2010-2011, we win the Cup with the amount of talent we could have had via trades.
Funny how this works.

Market......

The Isles ended up trading Moulson, their 2015 1st, and 2015 2nd for a 2nd and Sebastian Collberg.

lol

 

[MrShift4]

That 3rd line center, AHL dman, and a 22nd overall pick at best would have certainly been a fresh outlook, a fresh pile of poop.

They better load up and make sure that 2015 pick is outside of the top 10 or this will be a disaster of epic proportions.

 

[BenningHurtsMySoul]

Vanek is almost certainly walking for Minnesota at the end of the season, keep in mind.

"Whoops"

 

[canuck4life16]

some fans really think Kesler will get a good package at deadline....that was never going to happen and sorry but playoff hope is still alive!

 

[tc 23]

Hahahahaha. Montreal gets a conditional pick too.

Renaud Lavoie ‏@LavoieRenaud 10s
#canadiens get a conditional 5th round pick from the Islanders.

The reduced salary cap also has to be considered.

By the draft the market changes considerably just with the rising cap.

As for the Gillis will be gone crowd, you are either kidding yourself or setting yourself up for a...

Summer Of Disappointment.

 

[miked1101]

Gillis at the golf course... fantastic

Essentially Moulson AND a 1st for Collberg

Wow.
