As I suspected, there is a distinct lack of dentists posting in this thread.

This is very good value. Here is my proof:

Brother, we can't even get consensus that future draft picks are worth less than current ones. There's no discussion to be had.

"Whiners gonna complain," whines the person who is complaining, in a thread headed by a poll that indicates strong overall approval.

Frustrated that they couldn't get into medical school.

Do we even know if time is real?

If the "Plan" as a result of this was to:

Trade Laughton too.
Play Johansen in that 3C spot and... well... hope he rebounds to the guy from 2 years ago or at least a servicable middle six C.
Then with that 2nd hope in mind flip him next year if it comes to fruition.

Well, it would not be the worst train of thought. BUT I guess Laughton wont be moved...

Tortorella traded Johansen after weeks in columbus. He hates him. No chance he gets a chance here. And i dont mean 5 games. I mean a real chance

 

[CanadianFlyer88]

As expected.

 

[Hollywood Cannon]

RyJo's agent is also Cutter's agent...

just saying

Also Sean Walker's. Makes you wonder.

I was looking around and I haven’t seen anything besides this as to what actually happened. He’s still on the capfriendly roster

 

[wankstifier]

Is there a player with an offsetting contract out there that'd be a better fit than Johansen in their eyes? More likely that they'd have to burn their last retention slot instead, right?

Morganti called this trade "inventive"

 

[Fight4yourRight]

Flip for a 3rd at 50%-75% retention?

Flip for a 3rd at 50%-75% retention?

It’s only going to involve another contract

 

[Evergreen]

Getting a first round pick for Sean Walker, who was basically a throw-in from the Provorov deal, is great asset management. I don't think taking on Johansen's salary is a big deal. He's got only one year left on his deal and he can be bought out cheaply (with another team having to pick up half the cost of the buyout). Or we can flip him. I give this trade an A.

We know Tortorella hates him, but per Dater something happened in Colorado that poisoned the well. Might figure there's too much possible clashing on all sides to be worth what a 4th liner brings.

Only makes it harder to move him if that’s what they’re trying to do

 

[Tripod]

Waiting for us to trade him + 3rd for Jake Allen

We know that culture is the #1 priority for the FO, so it is unsurprising that they would avoid poisoning the well with an apparent malcontent with a poor work ethic.

 

[Cmoneyflyguy]

I admittedly know little about the prospects - but Walker getting a first but not Geuntzel makes this feel even win-ier

 

[ponder719]

smh, Danny. Put Johansen in a game so he counts as a Flyer for Puckdoku, coward.

 

[Rebels57]

Toffoli traded for a 2nd and 3rd to Winnipeg.

So far Walker and Hanifin are the only 2 players to return a 1st without conditions other than top 10 protection.

Good work by Briere here.
