Confirmed with Link: Adam McQuaid (back) to CBJ for a 4th and 7th

[Old Guy]

I guess the biggest joke running through the internet is that Bryce Harper has signed with the Columbus Blue Jackets.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

Shmaft.

Richard Roundtree meets Mel Brooks?

 

[Doug19]

Also heard we are trying to trade with the Steelers for Antonio Brown. Bettman told Jarmo he couldn't trade NFL draft picks, reportedly Jarmo replied that he could trade any draft picks that he wanted, yelled YOLO, then hung up.

Better than relying on Clendening. Kukan is OK in small doses.

Murray-Jones
Werenski-Savard
Nuti-McQuaid
Harrington

I'd rather have Harrington-Nuti, honestly. But McQuaid is fine as a #7.

Also, I'm pretty sure this is Jarmo in his wild youth:

I wouldn't rule out the possibility that Torts decides not to use McQuaid in the playoffs, and just sticks with Harrington. He'll give Quaider a look in the regular season of course, but I don't know if he'll like what he sees.

 

[Hooks]

I love it. All in.

Jarmo must think that the upcoming drafts are full of Puljujärvis

Hard to top Harry Nutsack.

Maybe he thinks it will be like 2013.

 

[Finner]

You take a pick, you take a pick, you take a pile of picks, you want some picks? There you have. I really dont like this move at all. If this was the best what was available ok. Bad ok but ok.

 

[DJA]

So we gave up Bergman in this trade as well? Three pieces for McQuaid?? Terrible deal. Don’t like it whatsoever.

Bergman, the 24 year old failed prospect who is heading back to Sweden, is what makes you think we lost this deal?

 

[jore]

I like this. Since we're going crazy anyways, might as well get McQuaid to finally dress for us. That makes 2005 the only draft in history that every player we drafted on rounds 1-5 played at least a game for the Jackets. That record might not be broken for a while. Especially now that we don't participate in drafts any more.

No it’s 3 assets for a #7 defenseman. Is it that hard to figure out?

You're right, I'm an idiot.

 

[WashedUp]

I guess Jarmo should check HF Boards to get the OK before he makes any moves. It’s obvious from the talk here he doesn’t know what he is doing! In the past Jarmo and his predecessors were slammed for doing nothing, now that he’s gone in full tilt he still gets slammed!!

 

[blahblah]

Clearly Bergman is not considered an asset by anyone.

 

[Double-Shift Lasse]

I would not be surprised to see Torts play McQuaid and Harrington and sit Nutivaara in the playoffs for a game or a couple if he felt the matchup was working against Nuti. I'm not saying I agree or not, but that it wouldn't surprise me.

The benefit to having so much talent, is that it allows for options like this.

Maybe have Nutivaara as the new head coach with Tortorella coaching the defenders given the magnificent and systematic way Wennberg's offensive game has been attempted to be destroyed on his watch.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

Also just for complete clarity: we also gave the Rangers the defenseman we got from Ottawa in the Duchene deal (Julius Bergman)

Spot on

That would piss me off. That'd be a great example of Torts overthinking things and a misuse of resources.......Right now all I see is the ghost of Kyle Quincey entering the building.
