Pre-Game Talk: Trade Deadline: Valid Rumors ONLY (Confirmed Trades in OP / Vanek to MTL )

[Clausewitz]

He is going strong this season without Stamkos. I see what you're saying for sure, but this year Marty definitely proved that he can do it himself.

Maybe he'll age as well as Jags has. That'd be fantastic!

Martin St-Louis, who has been a 38-year-old baby since the Olympic announcement, gets his wish by being traded to NYR. Legend tarnished.


Wow. Very professional.

as long as ONE of these picks is recooped in another trade then I am happy

If Callahan signs with the Lightning, the Rangers get an additional pick back. #Tradecentre

They would get one of the 2 picks back. Assuming the 2nd rounder.

St. Louis turns 39 on June 18 and his four-year, $22.5 million deal runs through 2014-15 with cap hit of $5.625 million

... FIRE THIS GM... The 2015 is uber. WTF

Receiving a 38 year old signed for one more year after this, trading a 2015 1st round draft pick in a year that is beyond stacked as of now...

NYR need to go all in and not stop at this trade.

More details: the 2nd-rounder in 2014 to Tampa becomes a 1st if NYR gets to conf final; if Callahan re-signs in TB (con'td)

 

[Balej20]

Pierre LeBrun ‏@Real_ESPNLeBrun 18s
then NYR get TB 2nd in 2015 and TB gets Rangers 7th in 2015

We've screwed ourselves.

Tampa gets 15 1st; '14 2nd that becomes a 1st if NY gets to Conf Final. IF Callahan stays, NY gets our 2nd in '15 and tb get NY's 7th in '15

Rangers are working hard to get St Louis to New York to play tonight vs the Leafs (on TSN). #Tradecentre

 

[tjs252]

Wow. I am stunned.

 

[Anthony Mauro]

So now the Rangers can't even use 2014 1st in another trade as it is leveraged in deal with TBL?

 

[Balej20]

The silence is deafening following this trade.

The Lightning are in Tampa. How hard can it be to get on a flight. Heck, they're paying him around $8 million between next year and the balance of this year, I'm pretty sure they could charter a plane and have him there in 2 hours.
