2016 Trade Deadline

[rt]

Jeffrey also recalled.

There will be mass call-ups and demotions across the league today. Most will be paper transactions. It has to do with playoff eligibility, if I'm not mistaken. I would read too much into any of that today.

USA Today Sport theorized that we might be in on a trade for Brandon Pirri, described thusly:

Brandon Pirri, 24, once considered part of Florida's future, could dealt today. He has a scoring touch, proven by his 22 goals last season. He owns 46 goals in 146 NHL games. But he is not a complete player, lacking a physical presence or a strong defensive emphasis. Panthers coach Gerard Gallant has scratched him when he slumps offensively.

I'm hoping they're just blowing smoke about our theorized interest.

Sarah says he's in the building though.

...except Cunningham was actually on the ice... so who knows?

Habs claim Mike Brown. Nice pickup.

I feel like Loui Eriksson/Boston Bruins contract drama and Dan Hamhuis NMC drama is holding up the entire day. I think they've got this deadlocked.

Yeah, definitely a WTF moment.

 

[rt]

Beats the crap out of what Boston actually received.

 

[mouser]

Would have been weird with Jumbo Joe here.

 

[rt]

We had nothing for him to work with at that time.

 

[CoyotesFan18]

Less then 2 hours and only 2 trades so far

Its a big "The first domino needs to fall" thing im sure. big names need to get traded or made unavailable then everything else will happen

Dreger: Lots of buzz Boedker has been traded. Working on confirmation

 

[Howler Scores]

To the Avs

Doan would have a great fit with the Bruins, Boston fans would have really loved him.

Boeds traded to Avs

 

[The Feckless Puck]

Anyone a little nervous about the roster we're going to ice tonight?

 

[rt]

Okay, so I'm a little confused. We traded one LHS winger and picked up three of them; Tanguay, Sekac, and Plop. Didn't we already have too many? Where the hell are all of these guys going to play?

 

[rt]

Also, Tanguay and Vermette on the same line is going to be hilarious.

Tank worthy

Tank worthy

Tanguay hasn't been as bad as Boedker has...

I'm sure Boedker will be better for the Avs than Tanguay will be for us, but it doesn't mean we became a worse team by trading Boedker and getting Tanguay. We'll probably be a better team, just by removing the distraction.

Haha. Just did a quick count and Tanguay actually has been a little worse. 9pts rather than 11pts in that span. Still, I mean, it's garbage out, garbage in. No biggie.
