Confirmed with Link: Ryan Murray traded to NJ for 5th rounder

[The Wumpus]

LOL guesses on the main board on what we paid were:
-two 2nds
-Palmieri
-Zacha.

You'll take a 5th and like it.

Wait, don't we have their fifth as is from the kk trade? Or was that 2022?

 

[Emperoreddy]

Nice cheap deal and upgrade over Mueller. Fine with this.

2022. We still have the 5th we got for Simmonds.

2022

2022

we have Buffalo's 2021 5th from Simmonds

 

[Peter Sidorkiewicz]

I like it. I believe we absolutely profit on this deal at the deadline

Yep. We could get a 2nd rounder if he is injury free

 

[TheUnseenHand]

Nice cheap deal and upgrade over Mueller. Fine with this.

Like, massive upgrade. Like going from a bicycle to a Bugatti.

 

[glenwo2]

Who?

 

[Forge]

Really, really solid deal. Very happy with this

 

[RSeen]

Great deal. If he stays healthy, thats a top 4 LHD for us.

 

[AfroThunder396]

Now all we have to do is trade Gignac +4th for Ekblad and we'll be all set

 

[Nicomo Cosca]

Who?

Guy went #2OA back in 2012...

 

[glenwo2]

I was wondering who this guy is, then I read that he was the #2 pick in the 2012 draft.

I went back and looked and found it was the Gong-show draft where instead of giving up the pick, we drafted Stefan Matteau. Jesus Christ....

BTW, that entire draft doesn't look too good today, to be kind.

Hope Murray gives us SOMETHING.

What a top 4 that was...Yakupov, Murray, Galchenyuk, Reinhart.

 

[MartyOwns]

a potential top 4 defenseman for a 5th round pick? impossible to hate this one

ON PAPER, that is.

So this is funny... look at some of the "returns" in this thread
Value of: - Ryan Murray to MTL

This comment over there should be concerning :

"I like Murray but man, he's always hurt. "

I guess it's good that it's only for a year since his deal expires.

 

[Mr Bojanglez]

yea this falls somewhere between 'fine' and 'good'. upgrade D with an experienced player who is decent when he plays.

Look at the guesses in the official trade thread. Palms, two 2nds, or Zacha.

 

[glenwo2]

Which sadly makes an oft-injured D-man the best D-man on the team now.

That's how bad our Defensive core is.

 

[Zippy316]

Solid deal for Fitzgerald here.

His main issue is he can’t stay healthy but if he can, he can be a solid, steady defensive partner for Severson, Subban, Smith, or Butcher.

Exactly what we need and we get a year to see how he fits.

Oof

 

[mdj12784]

Get him on some stem cell treatment ASAP lol

Get Murray to talk to the ol’ mighty Joe Rogan!
