Praise the lawd!

This McPhee bloke might be alright after all.

 

[Calicaps]

but for what? yandle maybe?

 

[Ovechtrick89*]

What are we getting? Please don't say Ribeiro lol

 

[msrulo]

What are we getting? Please don't say Ribeiro lol

hopefully a top line defenceman or a draft pick

 

[Kcoyote3]

More than likely a 3rd.

 

[hb12xchamps]

Klesla lol

 

[KevinM]

hopefully a top line defenceman

Keep hoping bud...

 

[Burakovsky95*]

Probably nothing significant. Phoenix just dealt Rundblad for a 2nd so maybe/hopefully a 2nd?

Chris Johnston ‏@reporterchris now

The #coyotes send Rostislav Klelsa, Chris Brown and a fourth-round pick to the #caps for Martin Erat and prospect Garrett Mitchell.

 

[amjay13]

Wow. Love it for the Caps. Klesla has a bit left and I love Brown as a prospect. Big, tough kid.

 

[Langway]

I can live with that. Brown's a decent grinder. Opens some space and an expiring UFA d-man.

 

[fsnoles98]

Don't care. A guy who didn't want to be here is gone.

 

[Burakovsky95*]

Hmm interesting return. I like.

 

[swimmer77]

Can't complain about this trade at all although I liked Erat. Lack of goals aside I thought he was a good puck possession player.

But Klesla's a Czech. LOL

 

[Langway]

Bob McKenzie saying it's John Mitchell, the Perreault trade throw-in, not Garrett. Vogel confirms.

 

[Liberati0n*]

McPhee continues the trend of acquiring wife-beaters.

 

[Calicaps]

Klesla is an upgrade over at least half our D right now. Not a long-term fix, but good for a guy who wanted out and wasn't performing as intended. Nice.

wait what?

Even better. I like Garrett's game

 

[SimplySensational]

This is a bad trade, will Rihanna ever perform at VC now?

 

[hb12xchamps]

Is it Garrett or John Mitchell. McKenzie says John Mitchell but everyone else says Garrett.

Mike Vogel ‏@VogsCaps 1m
Klesla and Brown are both ticketed for Hershey, at least for now. #Caps

 

[SimplySensational]

Apparently Chris Brown is good?

At this point, I doubt anything more could have been gotten.
