Confirmed with Link: Ned to DET for Bernier’s rights and a 3rd

[Bub]

C'mon guys. I saw Bernier play for the Lewiston MAINEiacs (shut up, that's how it was spelled) way back when, and he was awesome. Now we need to trade for David Perron, sign Eric Gelinas, unretire Stefan Chaput...do something else...then PROFIT.

 

[A Star is Burns]

I'm betting we come out of this just fine. Ned wasn't the key to our success even though he mostly played well.

 

[Lucky Lindy]

OMG

 

[sheriff bart]

Somebody got some splainin to do

 

[bleedgreen]

Never been a huge Ned guy but he deserved more back in a trade and if it was short term I would’ve paid him unless we’ve got something concrete up our sleeve.

I don’t think anything of Bernier at all other than being cheap.

Ps.....and apparently Ned wasn’t expensive. Ima gonna go get some popcorn.

 

[DougieSmash]

If they don't bring Gibson, someone should be fired. Omfg, that's pathetic.

 

[ManwithNoIdentity]

can someone give a scouting report on Ned?

Waiting until the next move is made for judgement. The org has shown that it does not use a zero sum mindset when making roster moves

Anyone want to tell him?

 

[Borsig]

What the f***. This is awful.

Why not just go to arbitration. This is one of the worst trades we've ever made.

 

[Oogie Boogie]

Ned has played 29 games, guys.

Shit return, but why are we acting like we traded some superstar? Let’s see what the actual plan is in net before we freak out, eh?

And played well enough to get Calder consideration and carry the workload in the playoffs for us. I'm pretty sure there's enough reason at the moment to be upset at this bullshit trade. If something else in net works out later on, fine, whatever, but currently?

 

[GoldiFox]

Not much to go on. Would at least like to know that it is DET's 3rd.

 

[DougieSmash]

Yzerman trade record is Hall of Fame. This will be brutal trade for us.

 

[SoupNazi]

This is odd.

I wonder if we're going to be able to sign Bernier?

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

OMG

Ouch

Did he not want to be here? Did their hardball style piss him off? Did he want to be guaranteed the starting spot?

Their # was 2.5 mil aav for 2, yes? Traded over 1 million, wtf.

 

[Tryamw]

OMG

Ok my unhappiness is over 9000

 

[emptyNedder]

I was a Ned supporter when almost everyone else jumped ship after his first 3 starts this season. I also haven't seen a serious argument against the fact that most cups are won with home-grown goalies.


The Canes made a mistake

 

[Canes]

Anyone want to tell him?

lol completely forgot about that

 

[Bub]

Anyone want to tell him?

I saw he was on our unprotected list...

The plan...it begins to come together.

 

[GigaChad]

Now he signs 2 year 3 mil contract?
Oh my god..

 

[CandyCanes]

What the f***. We’ve waited f***ing years for a long term option in net. Nedeljkovic f***ing shows promise that he’s finally the guy and we f***ing trade him away for a 3rd round pick.... I’m freaking pissed, this is stupid.

 

[GoldiFox]

2 years x $3 million. f***ing ridiculous. Nope x a million on this move, let's see that other goalie soon.

Where are they finding 2 goalies each for less than $3M a year? Heck, even if you don't trust Ned all that much and want to deal for a starter, you can keep him as part of a tandem at $3M / year. That's what they paid Reimer the past 2 years!
