3rd rounder lol

 

[dogthateats]

Surprised Yohe and Rossi didn’t report this

 

[Empoleon8771]

Getting a 3rd for Blueger is amazing with how awful he has been this year. I take that every day of the week.

 

[Turin]

Alright.. targets that I could stomach with Chychrun gone:

Miller, because it would fun, sanity and logic be dammed.

Garland and Boeser could both be ok, but trading Petts or POJ for them now is a no from me.

Is Barabanov available from SJ?

Provorov and Laughton, but Philly would never.

So yea. Wtf do they do?

 

[Pancakes]

Honestly going to miss Blueger. I know he couldn't score at all this year but I liked him as a player up until the drought this year.

I thought he had more to give and his game just went the opposite way this year. Hope he finds it again elsewhere.

 

[Josey Wales]

Lol… the team that traded its best player away is even adding. Unreal

NO Jr. they are trading him away

 

[Kristopher Letang]

There goes the 2M+ Hextal wanted to save if McGinn got claimed… I think that we’ll see the Vancouver trade happen in the next hour.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

If they were going to be major sellers it would have been earlier in the TDL. When there were more buyers.

 

[DeadPuckEra]

I hate how black and white people are.

This is a grey situation.

We owe it to Malkin and Crosby, and the fans, to ride it out to the end with them. But no matter what they could reasonably do the team will be second tier contenders at this point in their careers. No move that any of us could get behind would move them into first tier contenders.

This doesn't even address the inevitable injuries coming to one or two of their core.

So a minor deal or two at best. Let them go and try to get a fourth cup. But keep the picks intact for the coming rebuild.

Best of both worlds.

I think some of us see this for what it is. All good things come to an end. Haven’t seen anyone dispute the “cores” greatness and legacy, and any recognition coming their way. However, the organization has made them all multimillionaires, provided them with 15+ years of competive teams and “chances to win cups”. At one point does the organization look at life without those three? Do we really think we can win a cup with those guys at 38+? Yet we are going to continue to sell off draft picks to support them.

This train of thought is insane. People need to let go. It’s been over.

MILLER TIME

 

[Hockeygod66]

Is 2 ownership or Crosby and Sullivan I’m honestly not sure.

He was a good player before his jaw was broken. Wish him well, he played extremely hard minutes.

 

[3ladesof5teel]

Okay all you sky is falling suckas.

I moved to free up space and get an asset. Something's coming.

Hopefully don't need to eat crow You

 

[Ugene Magic]

The Hotdog man is coming.... The Hotdog man is coming.... THE. HOTDOG. MAN. IS. COMING...!

 

[Bishop7979]

Teddy's dad getting drug out of the hotel and dumped on the curb as we speak being told to find his own way home.

 

[Jobeycool]

No help for Letang .. lol

 

[TKalltheTime]

Just Think what might be happening next

 

[Extra Texture]

Wow, so that’s the end for Blue.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Figured that would be the real price.

 

[Gurglesons]

Can’t wait to see us spend on some shitty player from Vancouver.

 

[Jobeycool]

Just Think what might be happening next

I don't know if it is a good thing or a bad thing..

 

[3ladesof5teel]

Being a poster from 2004 You must be hitting very old age with some of your takes. This team isn't selling

Edmundson…lol…Ekland is reporting that we’re going hard after him lol

Not matching/beating Ottawa's bid for Chychrun should be a firing offence imo.

If there is any ambition for doing anything this year, then a true minute-munching transition beast LD was the one big piece that could change everything. He was there at an affordable price. He'd have helped this year and next. He could have been part of a rebuild, either extended or sold. And if this team doesn't have ambition for this year, they should be selling and targeting pieces with room to go.
