Speculation: 2013-14 Hurricanes Trade Talk Part 3

[Finnish Jerk Train]

Bruins picked up Meszaros for a 3rd.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Moulson to Min, and Vanek has been dealt.

McKenzie also saying Halak may be on the move.

Legwand to Detroit.

NYI have traded Tomas Vanek. VAN did not trade Ryan Kesler. #Tradecentre

Probably waiting on the trade call to make it official, those always get backed up on the deadline for some odd reason.

Couple moves by Buffalo to come:

The Sabres' Moulson deal is NOT the only one awaiting NHL trade call, according to league source. Buffalo has another move coming.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Vanek to MTL #size

Pure guess on my part, but I wonder if Eller is going the other way.

 

[DaveG]

Vanek for a 2nd and a prospect, wow

 

[tomdundo]

Vanek to Montreal is something I certainly didn't expect.

For a 2nd and a prospect?

 

[Buenos Necas]

Yikes, I hope for NYI sake the prospect isn't an overaged throw in...

 

[daikan]

Vanek for nothing. Snow worse than JR? I think so.

 

[cptjeff]

Dear lord, Garth Snow sucks. For everyone whining about JR, just remember it could be far worse.

 

[Brock Anton]

LOL Snow.

 

[DaleCooper]

Hahahahahaha

 

[Joe McGrath]

Christ he couldn't even turn Vanek into Fucale if he wasn't getting a 1st? What a dolt. JR needs to trade him Ward the second the season ends.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Now they are saying two 2nds and Collberg..so basically 3 second round picks (Collberg was a high second though). Not as horrible as it sounded initially.

Edit, now the main thread says a conditional 2nd and Collberg? I guess I'll wait for the dust to settle before commenting on how horrible or not it is.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Tim Thomas for Dan Ellis?

 

[Finnish Jerk Train]

Christ he couldn't even turn Vanek into Fucale if he wasn't getting a 1st? What a dolt. JR needs to trade him Ward the second the season ends.

Cam Ward for each of NYI's first round picks through 2019. Make it happen, JR.

 

[What the Faulk]

Garth Snow gave up:
Andy MacDonald
Matt Moulson
High 1st rounder
High 2nd rounder

Garth Snow received:
Mid 2nd rounder x2
Mid 3rd rounder
Sebastien Collberg

Carolina retained part of Ruutu's salary too, by the way.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

With Garth Snow's moves, are we really sure we want a new GM? The stupidity you know is sometimes better than the stupidity you don't.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Collberg a decent prospect, but now a conditional 2nd? Good work there by Bergevin, Snow clearly priced himself out of the market with ANA PIT and BOS, and MTL swooped in at the end.


And now Halak to WSH.

 

[daikan]

Well, Collberg is not going to be a useful NHL player, I don't think.

Here is Snow's record as a GM, by the way:

Team	Year		Won	Lost	OTL	Win %	Finish				Won	Lost	Result
NYI	2006-07	40	30	12	.571		4th in Atlantic Division		1	4	Lost in First Round
NYI	2007-08	35	38	9	.479		5th in Atlantic Division		-	-	Missed Playoffs
NYI	2008-09	26	47	9	.356		5th in Atlantic Division		-	-	Missed Playoffs
NYI	2009-10	34	37	11	.478		5th in Atlantic Division		-	-	Missed Playoffs
NYI	2010-11	30	39	13	.434		5th in Atlantic Division		-	-	Missed Playoffs
NYI	2011-12	34	37	11	.478		5th in Atlantic Division		-	-	Missed Playoffs
NYI	2012-13	24	17	7	.585		3rd in Atlantic Division		2	4	Lost in First Round
NYI	2013-14	8	14	3	.363		-					-	-	Season In Progress

That's pretty terrible.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Neuvirth and a 6th for Halak.

 

[My Special Purpose]

Rudy is on the flight home from San Jose. Then he'll head to Jersey for practice tomorrow. That's *got* to be a weird vibe.

 

[Blueline Bomber]

Neuvirth and a 6th for Halak.

What's that, 10 goalies traded now?

Compared to two last year.

 

[tomdundo]

Okay, now it's

Vanek + 5th for Collberg + conditional 2nd.

Go home Snow, you're drunk.



EDIT:

Or Vanek + conditional 5th for Collberg + 2nd, which makes a whole lot more sense.

 

[Buenos Necas]

Oh my, Gillis, what is on your face?

 

[Buenos Necas]

What's that, 10 goalies traded now?

Compared to two last year.

Yep, 10 by my count. Six from yesterday, Dubnyk, Berra, and now Halak and Neuvirth today.
