GDT: Trade deadline 2025

[PatrickEaves]

How smug can I be? What’s the allowable threshold?

to be fair. This is a trade. Not adjacent to a trade.

 

[PatrickEaves]

you thought our PK was bad?

its gonna be BAD BAD

but at least out 5v5 gonna be a lot better lol

Still have Greig and Pinto. That's like 74% of our shorthanded goal creation.

Also, need to put Timmy back on the pk. I've always thought he's been above average at it, not to mention the shorthanded threat.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Tkachuk - Stutzle - Giroux
Perron - Cozens - Batherson
Greig - Pinto - Zetterland
Gregor - Gaudette - Amadio
Cousins

Was the Norris sacrifice worth it?

Probably, but I really, really liked Norris. Add in Zetterlund and I think it's more than worth it. I also don't think he'll play 2C, I think he plays 1RW. Pinto is ready for the big time.

 

[SpezDispenser]

Tkachuk - Stutzle - Cozens
Zetterland - Pinto - Batherson
Perron - Greig - Giroux
Cousins/Highmore - Gaudette - Amadio

Me likey!

 

[Senscore]

Been a hell of a day fellas

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Been a hell of a day fellas

I've been a fan since 2002 (was living in Europe and not watching the NHL before moving back to Canada) and this has been, by far, the most exciting TDL we've ever had!

get your fill buddy, you earned it!

 

[Blotto71]

Ohhh boy, that's a lot of right handed player in our top 9. You now have to remove Gregor as looks like he is going the other way.

Cousins apparently coming back pre-playoffs?

Still will have Cousins/Reinhart/Highmore/(maybe) MacEwan

Decent enough L4.

 

[Emerica]

Brannchise going to Buffalo

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

I know how you feel, nobody believed me about my source either. They thought I was fabricating it.

Never second guess a prison inmate.

 

[Pierre from Orleans]

Brannchise going to Buffalo

L'Aveuglette must be happy to have his crush be closer to him.

 

[PatrickEaves]

Brannchise going to Buffalo

Oh shit. Buffalo going on an Andrew Hammond run to close the year out.

 

[Icelevel]

When everyone is healthy I’d go

Tkachuk-Cozens-Batherson
Zetterlund-Stutzle-Giroux
Perron-Pinto-Amadio
Cousins-Greig-MacEwen

 

[aragorn]

Zetterlund RW & Cozens C/RW are two good pickups, maybe even Gilbert LD, gonna miss Norris & Ostapchuk, liked both players. Should be interesting how Green employs them & should also be interesting what Staois does this summer in free agency with a little more money & cap space.

Tkachuk - Stutzle - Batherson
Zetterlund - Cozens - Giroux
Greig - Pinto - Perron
Cousins - Gaudette - Amadio/Highmore

I think we need to have Batherson with cozens to start with all the chemistry talk about them.

A real tragedy how some foolishly doubted you.

I can't see there being any extra money or cap space to spend this summer. If they bring back Giroux at ~4M, extend Zetterlund around 4-5M, sign Kleven, Matinpalo, and Merilainen to extensions you are likely around 90M with 2 forwards and 1 defense slot to fill. You're looking at adding a few ~1M guys to round out the roster.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Yeah the guy's never failed us, and when he said "all hands on deck", I knew something major was happening and went to bed excited lol.

 

[NyQuil]

Tkachuk - Stutzle - Batherson
Zetterlund - Pinto - Giroux
Perron - Greig - Cozens
Cousins - Gaudette - Amadio/Highmore

Buffalo fans have been fairly adamant that Cozens is a better winger than a centre.

 

[Tragedy]

Doubted what? There is nothing to doubt. It's not like he said there was a big trade for Norris in the works, it was "sens doing something different this year, something adjacent to a trade" and "might have a buzzer beater". How tf is a trade adjacent to a trade? Dude just uses vague inferences and let's all the people who fall for psychics praise him lol.
Anyone can say "something might happen " and then crow if it does and then zip it or say "oh guess my source was wrong" when nothing happens. Still waiting on Oliver Bonk to be a Sen btw but everyone conveniently forget the misses when he actually doesn't weasel word things

cant copy the tweet but rumored number on twitter was 2.8-3 million for a zetterlund extension. It does sound like the rumor means bridge deal but yeah

Yeah but Oliver Bonk is the biggest Sens fan out of all the players/prospects in the league. He's signing here as soon as he hits UFA status.

 

[Icelevel]

Might have a buzzer beater in the works. Still all hands on deck.

Appreciate you today and always. Thanks for bringing it once again. Made it a lot more entertaining.

And if that happens I have no doubt everyone here will consider that an accurate prediction 7 years after the fact lol

 

[L'Aveuglette]

We have to be the most improved team not named Florida in the East after this TDL right? And as far as the teams vying for the two WC spot, we're definitely tops imo.
