as long as it's a 3rd, then it's a wash.

Not really, it's a positive, we got several solid years out of him and if we get a 3rd we came out ahead.

Rangers will probably get Sheppard and that 2016 2nd will look nice along with the 5 others we have.

Sad to see Shep go, I really liked the kid and always pulled for him. Kid has some really good vision, he just needs some good linemates and I think he'd produce.

Interestingly, not that it matters a ton, but he's pretty much Burnsies best friend as I far as I know, so I wonder how he'll handle it.

A wash meaning he cost us a 3rd and if can fetch (at least) a 3rd.. Anything more is good asset management.

I like Sheppard. I hope he moves on to a team I don't hate so I can still root for him.

First Mordin, now Sheppard?! **** DW!!!

 

[Coily]

LOL called it.

Someone on the Habs board just said Sheppard to the Rangers?

EDIT: ****...

 

[Gilligans Island]

Good for Sheppard. I'll add the Rangers to list of teams to root for in the playoffs.

 

[Bizz]

for a draft pick

I thought Shep was part of the Couture and Demers crowd

So long Sheppard. The one pending UFA that I wanted to keep...

Hearing Tanner Glass too... Have no idea if true, bunch of ranger fans tweeting it.

Hearing Tanner Glass too...

Ewww.

 

[CanadienShark]

Watch, Thornton to the Preds tomorrow, Marleau to the Habs. Please....

 

[glasgow26]

For a 4th in 2016. What a lousy return.

 

[Iron Chef]

4th round in 2016.

 

[Coily]

a 4th in 2016

 

[KirbyDots]

Pick is apparently 4th rounder, 2016

 

[Negatively Positive]

A 4th?? Come on, this is a seller's market. So Kennedy would get a 5th then since he's even less valuable than Shep.
