Confirmed Trade: [CHI/BUF] Anders Bjork for future considerations

Future Considerations is having a rough year.
He's only moved twice now(correct me if I'm wrong). He usually gets a lot more action than that.

This is how it works...


Davidson’ first move was Malcom Subban to Buffalo for ‘future considerations’...now Buffalo has sent Bjork back the other way for the same...

Understand?

It's Oh So Quiet in this thread...

I thought that this Bjork is from Ork?

 

[Djp]

Bjork sent back to ork….na no na no

 

[BHawk21]

You're using the term "NHL body" very loosely here.

Might play real minutes on Chicago the next few weeks

I'm just saying, he usually moves 7 or 8 times a year.
This year it seems like everybody wants those pesky draft picks instead.
His value might be slipping.

Another part of this trade is coming it's being reported.

 

[OscarsCards]

What does chicago gain from this trade lol . Unless They think domi or Anesethou is getting moved.

 

[TheGreenTBer]

Why does he have an asterisk at the end of his twitter handle as if he's a banned HFBoards poster from like 2010 or something

 

[Irie]

So future considerations are actually going to be future considerations? Weird.

 

[Reality Check]

Now we must wait to figure out the future considerations:

Chicago-style Hot Dog, Chicago-style Pizza or rights to Lori Lightfoot

I've gone to many Amerks games over the years, he's plugged in to Rochester for sure.

 

[Kevin Musto]

Probably Bobby Lynch or DJ Busdeker

Buffalo plays a really loose system that requires the players to evaluate and react. It requires higher hockey IQ. Bjork is lost in it.

If you have a coaching system that tells Bjork where to be and when to be there, he might surprise you as better than advertised. Good skater who showed some flashes in Boston. He's not an upgrade on anyone, but he can pk and might be serviceable during a rebuild to insulate the kids.

Nailed it

The only thing of note on this trade does for Buffalo is clear one of the contract slots. But this is most likely Adam's honoring Bjorks wish to play elsewhere with a chance at an NHL spot.

 

[Elvs]

Well duh, we all know Future Considerations is a player.

But how Chicago could trade him, when the Rangers acquired him from Nashville only a few days ago, is beyond me

 

[VaporTrail]

Bjorkin' hard for Bedard

Now we must wait to figure out the future considerations:

Chicago-style Hot Dog, Chicago-style Pizza or rights to Lori Lightfoot

Well take hot dogs or pizza but no Lightfoot

 

[Howie Hodge]

Chicago getting some Pagan Poetry!!

 

[DustyZ]

No Riley Stillman earth shaker but apparently Sabres still open for business

 

[Behn Wilson]

Is he going to play for the Hawks or he is just a replacement for the Hawk's minor league affiliate Rockford to replace players called up

OK but his contract expires after this season, I'm not sure why Kyle would waste a draft pick on a expiring contract. Chicago could just wait until July to sign him to a team friendly deal....

Is there a draftpcik involved? I thought it was just Gicewicz, and was more likely just a contract exchange, no?
