GDT: Trade deadline: 4/3 noon PT

[Mafoofoo]

Wow Ottawa got Conacher? That's awesome for them

 

[magic school bus]

Wow, Conacher and a 4th for Bishop.

Yzerman has lost it

 

[Coily]

For.. what? lol

Brodin and Coyle.

 

[hateseed]

Feeling that Boyle may be gone to the Wild...just a feeling.

I don't even know how our D functions without boyle, honestly. The only way that works is 2-3 forwards coming back and Burns back on D. Even then....

 

[SnarkAttack]

Haha, thats awesome, what did he say?

Nothing. The anchor said they'll have him back shortly as he had other business to attend to, or something like that.

 

[rangerssharks414]

Yzerman has lost it

I know he hasn't been good and he's hurt, but didn't they just give up two 2nds for Lindback?

 

[pappaf2]

Whoa! Sportsnet called Conacher and he had not been told about a trade yet...

lol! Whoops

 

[OrrNumber4]

For.. what? lol

No clue. Rumor that the Wild are gearing up for a big trade...

 

[Fistfullofbeer]

DW can't do that anymore. Then he will need to trade for another veteran D-man to make up for Boyle's loss.

What makes you think it would be for Boyle? God that would be stupid, that would almost for sure come back to haunt us... like tonight.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Yzerman gives Conacher for Bishop?

Yzerman has gone insane.

 

[SnarkAttack]

Either way, interesting trade by Stevie Y. I do think he sold high on Conacher, and that Bishop is a good goalie that will be in TB for a while.

Edit:But bought high on Bishop as well...

 

[OrrNumber4]

That is a lot to give up for Bishop...

 

[rangerssharks414]

No clue. Rumor that the Wild are gearing up for a big trade...

Pominville?

 

[pappaf2]

No clue. Rumor that the Wild are gearing up for a big trade...

I'm going to be very unhappy if we trade Boyle.

 

[DrFeelgood]

Didn't Bishop make his NHL debut against us when he was with the Blues?

 

[Jargon]

Feeling that Boyle may be gone to the Wild...just a feeling.

God. No. No.

No.

No.

They can take Hannan -- he's a great veteran d-man.

Yeah jury is still out on this trade. Conacher could very well be a fluke and a lot depends on how Bishop turns out.

 

[magic school bus]

I know he hasn't been good and he's hurt, but didn't they just give up two 2nds for Lindback?

Yeah, he's just being stupid.

It's like he learned nothing from being around the Red Wings for so many years. Worry about the team around the goalie, not the goalie.

 

[OrrNumber4]

Again, just a feeling. No concrete reason.

Boyle would instantly make them the favorites in the West, IMO. Their weakness is the defense, no?

 

[Grave]

Any news on DW still being active?

 

[hockeyball]

Boyle - Suter would be incredible, which is why i wanted Suter

It sounds like for sure it includes a goalie though, why would we want a goalie?

 

[JoeThorntonsRooster]

Boyle for Coyle?

Unless we're getting something amazing back, I can't imagine it. As bizarre as the Hannan acquisition is, I don't think DW makes it if he didn't think there was a CHANCE for a playoff run (depth signing, blahblah, why make it if he's given up on the season?)

If he trades Boyle, there's no way in hell we're making it past the first round. If even getting there. Boyle is our defense.
