Confirmed with Link: [PIT/OTT/VGK] Brassard/Dunn/Lindberg/3rd for Gustavsson/Cole/1st/3rd for Reaves/4th | VGK ret. 40%

[UnrealMachine]

Yep. Brassard's only gonna cost 3 million next year.

But there was NO COLLUSION!

 

[SUBdrewgANS]

Does Brassard play tonight? Or are there Visa issues?

 

[Scandale du Jour]

The Jets offer may have been better in their eyes. But Ottawa believed that the goalie, Cole as a flip and the pick was superior to what they plan on doing beyond Brassard. But color me concerned with that loss of Grit and deterrent of a Reaves or the grit of a Cole. It will be missed unless GMJR and ownership and sully are not concerned of that element that was so needed after last year and now is not.

We won two Cups in a row with speed, skills and no "deterrent". We won't miss Reaves.

Cole will be missed but still.could be replaced in the next 48h.

Did JR spike the drinks of the other 2 Gms to pull this one off? For sure there's an unofficial "you owe us one" condition in there for the future lol

JR played the "you owe me for Fleury" card.

I mean, not really though. That wasn’t a favor...

Wouldn’t GMGM owe every other GM as well if that were th case?

 

[dr robbie]

This is a bit awkward and all, but i talked to other VGK fans and it turns out... we don't actually want Reaves, wanna take him back.

Pretty sure there was a no taksies backsies clause.

We gave him a 2nd rounder for him to take an allstar goalie.

 

[AquaticBirdman]

Guaranteed JR promised Vegas someone on roster or down in the system this summer.

The alternative was him taking Murray.. not really a favor. It was more of a favor to us to get flowers salary off the books. We should be owing GMGM

No we shouldn't.

Fleury waived, Murray was never exposed.

 

[SUBdrewgANS]

No we shouldn't.

I wasn’t serious, just doing reverse logic on the posts above

Sure, then the person that is really owed if Fleury. GMGM does not owe us for Fleury is all I’m saying.

Flower going to Vegas was agreed on a handshake last Feb from the sounds of it and we've no idea what else was agreed.

Honestly, it sounds more like GMJR has built up a reservoir of good will over the years by not being a dick to people and giving them fair deals. So, on days like yesterday, when he needs to call in a favor or two, people are willing to do so, even if it's not entirely in their best interests.

Guess Dunn wont be re-signed but Lindberg looks like he's a decent AHLer at least.

Being a man of your word and dealing in good faith pays off.

Who knew?

Not Joe Sakic.

It's amazing how odd of a concept that is for certain boards here.

It's a shame I can't offer you some slightly-used skullduggery. I'm fresh out.

I have it on good authority that this trade was completely soaked in skullduggery. We're just too used to being uncle Gary's favorites that we can't see it.

 

[JTG]

The Ottawa Senators have set themselves back about 7 years in the span of 3 months.

 

[BreakfastatMarios]

Maybe JR shared his cookies.
