See ya pal. When Hudler goes for a 2nd you aren't getting a 2nd for Purcell.

Meh. 3rd is about what was to be expected. I hope the Oilers trade that pick at the draft

Good value imo as a flames fan.

Damn Florida is stocking up and they are not spending much to do it! They aren't over paying.

Very meh return.

Hate this time of year. We ever going to get to a point where we're not trading players for picks at the deadline? It's been 10 years of it.

I think it's fine. We got this player for Gagner who had no value. We turned him into something of worth by pumping him on the first line. It will be nice to have him off the salary next year (I know, either way, but we got something instead of nothing).

Because we need more prospects....

The last thing I ever want at this point is more picks.


We couldn't even pump this guys tires playing him in topsix perennially. Why did we do that? :(

He's weak on the puck and doesn't fit Chia's mold. He hasn't been a good player since his early Tampa days. They got a pick for a rental. They can use picks to get players. Don't assume they will make the pick. We used similar picks to get Talbot last year. What's so hard to understand?

Purcell isn't really good tbh. This is actually an alright return, considering he would have cleared waivers the start of the season.

The value is fine. But what's a 3rd rounder really? A 15% shot in the dark at a 3rd/4th liner that might play 4 years from now?
