Why 20% if LTIR'd?

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Canucks get out of LTIR.

Colorado, I think, is trying to get more LTIR space with this trade.

 

[LOFIN]

Why 20% if LTIR'd?

Because the Avs are not going to put him on LTIR immediatly?

 

[Jannik Hansen]

Why 20% if LTIR'd?

Now we don't have to use LTIR and can bank cap space.

 

[Brookbank]

Yes, VCR. Allvin never sleeps. That Poolman deal has been a pain for years

Brannstrom is badddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

 

[Altimus]

Word is Branny has had a terrible training camp.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Seems like Brannstrom was going to end up getting waived by the Avs, so they got a free pick and a guy they'd just throw on LTIR for him. Not a bad move by Colorado.

 

[TruGr1t]

Brannstrom is terrible, but that’s really not the point of the trade anyway.

 

[Peter Griffin]

Brannstrom is badddddddddddddddddddddddddddd

Poolman is worse.

 

[S E P H]

Poolman is worse.

Poolman is LTIR fam. Avs had too many defenders and got rid of one after claiming Ludvig yesterday. Brannstrom lost his spot.

 

[serp]

Poolman is worse.

I don't think Poolman is healthy enough to play so that part doesn't matter

 

[Cypher]

Avs sign Brannstrom late this summer, put him thru training camp and pre-season where he was a complete dud, and traded him for 4th before ever really skating for the team. Couldn’t get an easier draft pick if you tried. C Mac cooking.

 

[Hodge]

Why 20% if LTIR'd?

Contract probably isn't properly insured so Canucks are eating 500k cash

 

[Satan]

Joe Sakic will lose a blackberry for trading a player he signed 2 months ago

 

[SEALBound]

I thought Poolman was going to be on LTIR for quite awhile? Cap move by the Avs?

And for the sake of my OCD sanity, please edit the title to VAN. WTF is VCR? Took awhile to read that.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Brannstrom now on waivers, was just a cap dump move by Vancouver.

Wow, Allvin just got owned by CMac. A free draft pick essentially.

 

[LOFIN]

Wow, Allvin just got owned by CMac. A free draft pick essentially.

Canucks don't want to be on LTIR, the Avs don't need to until both Landy and Nuke are back at which point they need to make more cap moves. At least that's how I think this one is?

I don’t think you understand how this works… Branstrom wasn’t the point of this deal.
