[LOFIN]

The highlight of his career has probably been denting the Stanley Cup

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

BOOOOOOO

 

[TheGortonConspiracy]

literally forgot Brannstrom was in the system

 

[cwede]

NAK was already in AHL, likely stays there

The highlight of his career has probably been denting the Stanley Cup

I take one pro and one con from the above:

CON: He had the cup because he was the last guy in line for it.
PRO: He was already drunk.

 

[Flan the incredible]

It definitely wasn't the zero points he scored in those playoffs.

Rumor was this deal originally was a 3 way trade including McDavid to the Rangers but we ran out of time before the deadline

 

[Daves a mess]

Is Aube-Kubel French for JJ Paterka?

 

[Matt Rentfree]

Doing my level best to get this "Who gives a shit?" thread to 2 pages long.

 

[H00fHearted]

So that explains the Soucy acquisition.

 

[cheech70]

Get to know you trade

 

[Larrybiv]

Well, I predicted a HUGE last minute trade. Doesn't that count for anything around here?
Edit: The MISSING piece!

 

[bobbop]

A trade that won’t help either team

Rumor was this deal originally was a 3 way trade including McDavid to the Rangers but we ran out of time before the deadline

And now we move our attention to Chris Drury live on site: do we still have time left ? What time is it boys?

 

[McRanger92]

Aube-Kubel dented the Cup when he won it with Colorado in 22. That's all I got.

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Now on his 6th team in 7 seasons.

Vlad Namestnikoff, we hardly knew ya.

Vlad Namestnikov: "Shit, he's right! He doesn't even know how to spell my name!"

 

[NYR Viper]

Aube-Kubel isn’t devoid of talent. He plays at a high pace and likes to hit. I don’t hate this as a depth option.

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Vlad Namestnikov: "Shit, he's right! He doesn't even know how to spell my name!"

F**k ov, Vlad. Lol

 

[WhereO Is Kakko]

Now that it’s all over…

None of our competition in the Metro made a needle-moving acquisition IMHO.

“Plus ca change…”

 

[Killem Dafoe]

leftiest of left field trades

 

[Machinehead]

It's not the end of the world if Aube-Kubel plays in the NHL.

He has no skill at this level but opponents have a nasty habit of never scoring when he's on the ice.

Drury continues to deepen his arsenal of potential bodies. I'm glad the days are long gone of Gorton having exactly 18 NHL skaters, and the very first injury of the season sending Johnny Sucksaplenty out there.

 

[Synergy27]

I mean. Ok.
