Rumor: Ducks and Penguins discussing Nic Deslauriers

[CheckingLineCenter]

Second time this has happened to the Pens. Under two different FOs. Weird.

 

[Goose of Reason]

Friedman once again wrong on us

 

[Paul4587]

Murray will be pissed that a deal leaked when nothing was done haha.

 

[DuckTech]

Well, knowing Bob, it seems like if a trade gets leaked he seems to put an end to the trade. I'm guessing he won't trade Des now.

When was the other time?

 

[Boo Boo]

When was the other time?

iginla I think?

 

[McDonald19]

We’ll see if it actually happens, and what the return is. My initial opinion is it’s a bad move. Popular teammate on contract next season at a nice price. Keep him around to protect Zegras and Drysdale.

 

[The Mighty Duck Man]

No Iginla went to Pittsburgh then, it was Boston he wouldn't waive for.

 

[MMC]

He’s in the lineup

ahh my mistake

Matheson. Ended up getting done but there was an initial report that got walked back. Deal went through a few days later IIRC.

btw meant to post my initial one in the main forum

Riiiight forgot about that.

 

[duxfan1101]

Wouldn’t be surprised if the deal is done after today’s game.

 

[McDonald19]

We’ll see. If it was that close to happening, they should have held him out of the lineup and put Backes in. Could have broken his hand on O’Brien’s face just now.

That is exactly why i am unhappy. They run the risk of a player getting hurt 1 day before the deadline.

 

[Mr Rogers]

 

[Dirk316]

Didn’t mind him, but don’t mind losing him either

Very Shocking
Hopefully the Ducks find a way to get Kerfoot to replace him on the 4th line

 

[Dirk316]

Incoming Dirk meltdown.

I couldn't care less.

Another shocker from someone obsessed with no touch no fight Euro style hockey

 

[ShadowDuck]

Odds on BM killing the deal because it was released

 

[Dirk316]

Murray would have gotten a 7th rounder for him, a useless pick for useful player

 

[ohcomeonref]

If you like tough-guy, Deslauriers is the kind of tough-guy you want.

I like tough-guys.

I like Deslauriers.

Happy he's staying.

 

[Trojans86]

I bet they announce the trade right after the game. Something about the fight and the way the announcers were talking made it feel like he knew it was his last game.

Its always good to have toughness but they need to be able to hold their own as hockey players as well. We've had some that were pretty borderline in that regard, but Des has been solid.

Anyway this is bush league from Friedman, needs to remember that there are people's lives involved.

 

[Steppin Razor]

Des is pretty much a perfect modern day enforcer. Happy to have him around.

I wonder, how many times you have said this crap over the years. Nothing in that sentence makes any sense even.
