Confirmed with Link: Andrew Shaw traded to Chicago

[Phil Parent]

And Shaw gets to go where his heart never ceased to be.

We are signing somebody.

And Erik Engels was right, he knew about this.

 

[The Great Weal]

Nobody can say if this is a good trade or not until tomorrow.

 

[Habaneros]

Corey Perry ...

 

[Zorba]

We’re signing duchene or lee

This

 

[Kudo Shinichi]

If we sign duchene, we have now enough to also sign lehkonen and armia

Yes props to Engles...today is NOT done he said...

He was 142.7 % correct

 

[Archijerej]

Whoa!!! I bet it's Lee.

 

[Redux91]

Good time to trade him

Thats the thing, loved the guy, but this is when you trade him

 

[The Great Weal]

I'm good with the return. Three draft picks. One 2nd and one 3rd? I'm good.

2 early 2nds where we know Timmins LOVED both Debrincat(have to think it's even more likely with our Caufield pick) and Girard.

f*** it better be Duchene...

 

[JoelWarlord]

I can't believe it. Marc Bergevin selling high on a bottom 6 "character" guy making way too much money. What is happening?

The return is slightly light but I am just beyond shocked that they actually did this and traded a guy like Shaw away.

 

[Runner77]

W3K must be ecstatic.

 

[Zorba]

That leaves us with about 12 milli in cap space to sign Armia.

Way more than that
Weise and peca in minors

 

[Treb]

Almost the same value we paid for him when he was not broken. Considering the mileage on him, 1 round lower for one of the two pick isn't bad.

 

[LaP]

Solid trade

Near as much as we paid for him so since we paid too much yeah good trade.

 

[nilan30]

Boooooo. Don’t like this at all.

Talent wins. Shaw is nice but duchene is better

 

[CH25]

Weak return. Does this mean we're overpaying some free agent. Dont like this at all.

 

[Kotkaniemi15]

Debrincat + Krys + 7th for 2nd + 3rd + 7th

 

[The Great Weal]

I'd rather have 3.9 for Shaw instead of like 2.5 for Armia personally, but I will have to wait and see what happens tomorrow.

 

[overlords]

I was told just today things like this couldn't possibly happen. I'm going to go buy a lottery ticket or something

 

[Le Barron de HF]

Hmmm I'll be patient like when we signed Radulov but it's a bittersweet feeling to see him go for a lower return than what we paid for. A few thoughts:

1) What was the point of acquiring him in the first place then? Teach the team how to be a winner?
2) How come we got a lower return when he was coming off a career year?
3) OTOH, kudos for Bergevin for doing what needed to be done in his regards. He sold him at the right time. I'm surprised he pulled the trigger given his past with Shaw and his status as a leader on the team.

 

[The Price is Right]

Better be for Duchene I'm expecting nothing less now from MB

 

[Habaneros]

what did we spend to get Shaw...
