Fixing a blueline that was basically crippled and unable to defend.

Severson is not exactly the type of guy you need then.

I like the move and I think most on HF will see sticker shock this free agency season. This is a bit high but for top 4 dmen your basically going to have to pay that now.

Severson is not exactly the type of guy you need then.

He's better than what we were working with before. Which, yeah, not a high bar to clear, but still.

This isn’t fun anymore

Columbus defence starting to look outrageously good.

Werenski-Jiricek
Provorov-Boqvist
Severson-Bean

With Svozil and Ceulemans on the horizon?

I imagine Severson is at least on the 2nd pair and on the right side

 

[NYRKing]

That can’t be real

 

[Ianturnedbull]

A 2nd in return?

Is CBJ going to trade their 1st in 23?

 

[NYRFANMANI]

Jarmo better not gift wrap the Debbies some ridiculous return here.

Absolutely. He’s 2nd pair at a minimum.

Wow that is the worst contract in the league

 

[Gaylord Q Tinkledink]

What did they give up for the 1 extra year ?

Cbus looking for a goalie now?

 

[Kranix]

Why was it necessary to trade Gavrikov? Just for the late first?

 

[Justicebork]

CBJ has become the Vancouver Canucks of the rust belt

 

[Mirka the Turka]

I don’t want to be mean to Columbus fans, I hope y’all win a cup soon

But Severson cannot play any defense and makes horrible mistakes game after game.

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Columbus needs a better defense.

Says screws it, gets Provorov and Severson instead.

Offense will be our only defense.

 

[Mrfenn92]

Good for the jackets going for it.

[Mirka the Turka]

Will regret that in 3 years..

They’ll regret it mid season

 

[BertCorbeau]

Lots of puck movement on that blue line now

 

[waitin425]

What is the return?

 

[Viqsi]

Why was it necessary to trade Gavrikov? Just for the late first?

He was balking at our attempt to resign him; otherwise we would have kept him.

 

[Viqsi]

What is the return?

Three posts up.

A 2nd in return?

No way the Devils are getting a 1st or 2nd for a free agent lol. At best a 3rd or 4th.
