Confirmed Trade: [OTT/BOS] Linus Ullmark for Mark Kastelic, Joonas Korpisalo (25% retained), 2024 BOS 1st round pick

[Arthur Morgan]

like this for Ottawa. playoff bound?

 

[King Woodballs]

lol ottawa

 

[Just A Bit Outside]

Thought the Bruins would do better TBH.

 

[GermanSpitfire]

Boston must feel that they can rebuild Korpisalo to a level similar to where Ullmark is at.

They get their first back and a potential playoff style bottom 6 centre that can win face offs.

On the surface Ottawa wins, but there is hope for Boston here.

 

[ChaoticOrange]

Yeah if the ++++ included McAvoy

Yeah… it didn’t haha

 

[ottawagm]

Forget Ullmark, I would have paid the 25OA and Kastelic just to dump Korpi. Heck last year they wanted a 2nd for Joseph and he's actually decent.

 

[NyQuil]

Yes (assuming the contract isn’t anything ridiculous). Big upgrade.

I guess we’ll find out one way or the other.

 

[TSBruins13]

Let’s be honest - Korpisalo will probably play well in Boston - we have a pretty good track record of goaltending

 

[GCK]

Is Korpisalo being move with another 1M retained or will Boston buy him out ?

 

[JimmyApples]

I wouldn’t give up a 1st for him without being pretty sure he can be extended. Are you 100% confident Ottawa will get that done?

Pretty much a second, and ate 75% of Korpisalo’s contract. It’s a good deal, if Sens extend Ullmark it’s a steal.

 

[Psycroptic86]

lets f***ing go! Got rid of Korpse and got Ullmark in the process.

 

[Metroid]

Ullmark doing the Atlantic tour.

 

[OmniSens]

Don't get me wrong, Ottawa caught a break here. That being said, I fully expect Korpisalo to bounce back in Boston and have good numbers.

Since Anderson, Ottawa's been a goalie graveyard. Let's hope Ullmark stops that trend.

 

[Taluss]

Wouldn't shock me if Korpi can be decent in Boston

 

[NyQuil]

Let’s be honest - Korpisalo will probably play well in Boston - we have a pretty good track record of goaltending

Goalies that leave Ottawa often improve also. It’s a wild coincidence!

 

[Fatass]

Not too sure how this helps Boston unless they plan on moving their first again?

 

[dirtydanglez]

Is Korpisalo being move with another 1M retained or will Boston buy him out ?

probably keep him and play him 30-40 games. i think he'll play well behind bostons d and system.

 

[LEAFANFORLIFE23]

I know Ottawa retained 25% but I can't took that contract, I assume there is an extension coming for Ullmark and if so Ottawa NAILED this.

Boston better make a damn good pick at 25 because right now it looks like they got fleeced.

 

[Akrapovince]

If they do, will you admit it is a good trade?

Lmfao the money they save from Korpisalo alone is worth the first round pick.

 

[SensFactor]

Staois is light years ahead of Dorion. Dorion would have given up 7OA + Pinto lol

 

[Nevins]

Ottawa win easily

 

[Breakers]

Yikes

Taking on korpisalo????

 

[Score08]

That’s it?

B’s fans thought Ullmark ++ got them into Draisaitl discussions

No Boston fan thought that, Linus wanted to stay on the East Coast

 

[bringbacktheskate604]

yep - alot of front offices are probly shaking their heads at this move. imagine if boston was in this position, they wouldnt wanna be upstaged (cant say the same thing about OTTAWA, theyre in endless feedback loop rebuilding (i.e., very hard to imagine them ever being in the cup finals rite now)

People can't be serious that Florida and Edmonton would be upset about a trade , like come on.
What is wrong with people today? everyone has to walk on eggshells because they might offend someone is ruining this world. When Spaz become a no no to say or when banking commercials had a black husband, an Asian wife and a white kid is when I gave up
This is not some unwriiten rule,
Flipping your bat after a HR, that's an unwritten rule.

 

[StickShift]

Shocked that Boston would take back Korpisalo’s term. Only rational explanation is that their goalie coach liked something in his game.
