[Novacane]

Terrible. Absolutely terrible.

 

[What the Faulk]

Guess McBain was pretty much worthless.

 

[Wolfpuck]

Really, JR?

 

[vwg*]

Overpayment, and I really, really dislike McBain.

****

 

[bb99]

Everyone has nudes of JR these days.

 

[tarheelhockey]

JR... wow.

 

[What the Faulk]

Wow Capgeek is fast. Sekara already added to Carolina's page. Makes 2.75M for the next 2 years then is an UFA.

 

[HisIceness]

What is this I don't even.

Sexy boo-boo's gone.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Bad bad bad bad bad.

This was basically a mid-first. Buffalo should be the one adding if they want the 35th overall. Instead we throw in McBain. This is stupid.

 

[Jussijuice]

What a stupid deal.

Mediocre 2nd pairing D for a below average 2nd pairing D and a great prospect.

Almost anyone they picked there would have been top-5 in the Canes prospect depth chart.

 

[enthusiast]

We hate it too lol

 

[Buenos Necas]

Sekera is not what we need at all...unless we move Pitkanen and his contract elsewhere, and pick up someone who is actually physical.

 

[YoSoyLalo]

You guys for real? Hurricanes robbed Buffalo.

 

[Wild Caniac]

Bad trade.

 

[Brock Anton]

No more liz.

 

[Zman5778]

You guys are gonna LOVE Sekera. Really underrated here on HF.



OTOH, I know nothing of McBain -- scouting report?

 

[cptjeff]

What more info is there to come? McBain and 35 for Sekera.

JR said he had an eye on a specific D who they thought would be late 1st/ early 2nd, and nobody else was really standing out. A couple D selected right before the Canes pick, and the Canes suddenly trade for a D. 2+2.

 

[DaleCooper]

This sounds awful. Here's an interesting article though: http://www.diebytheblade.com/2013/4...ekera-is-so-underrated-by-buffalo-sabres-fans

 

[vwg*]

... I just realize we finally traded with Buffalo

 

[enthusiast]

No seriously Sekera was arguably our best defenseman

 

[faulkingdynamic]

Wasn't he the lead singer for Chicago?

 

[Buenos Necas]

What more info is there to come? McBain and 35 for Sekera.

Saving space for quotes and what not later on.

 

[Oenatzu]

Get off my man, ********.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

You guys are gonna LOVE Sekera. Really underrated here on HF.

Absolutely terrible, but might continue to improve with a change of scenary.
