Confirmed with Link: [AZ/PHI] Shayne Gostisbehere, a 2022 2nd, and a 2022 7th from PHI for one US dollar

[RABBIT]

Uh I love this trade. I like Ghost and we have ANOTHER 2022 2nd

 

[Neighborhood Coyote]

Kinda like signing a UFA but getting a pick for doing it.

(Damn, Mosby beat me to the punch! haha)

 

[Mosby]

So we now have three 2nd rounders this year and four 2nd rounders next year.

Potentially one more with a Stralman deal.

 

[LuckyNumber11]

Lol Chayka used to give up stuff for shit contracts. BA refuses

 

[XX]

Lol Morgan confirms we get the 2nd rounder. Philly gets nothing in return

They shouldn't. Ghost is like if you paid Oesterle three times as much and played him higher in the lineup. He has real issues... that I'm happy to look the other way on for a pick.

We'll have to package some together and move up or acquire other assets. There's only so many contract slots available.

 

[moosemeister]

BA isn't f***ing around with these draft picks. haha

 

[Mosby]

Bill Armstrong has now traded Derek Stepan, Adin Hill, and a seventh rounder for 5 second rounders, a third rounder, a seventh rounder, Shayne Gostisbere, Andrew Ladd, and Josef Korenar.

 

[MIGs Dog]

Only 28. Maybe we can reignite the old Ghost. But I like the picks too.

Flyers fans insist he was their best defenseman post waivers.

 

[The don godfather]

Nice 2nd round pick up guys those are silver bullion in terms of draft picks. You guys are killing it. Bruins fan here but my kid big yotes fan and is jumping around. Plus you got a 28 yr serviceable dman who can put up points. Congrats

 

[rt]

I'm happy to have Gostisbehere. But this MUST mean that we are moving OEL, right? How can this work otherwise?

Also, I still kinda hope we do the Stralman deal, anyway.

 

[Fyreman]

So we gave up a 2nd and 7th for Ghost and his contract?

l'm reading it as GETTING a 2nd and 7th. Am I wrong? My apologies...

 

[Art.Vandelay]

LOVE this trade. We get a serviceable d to fill out the roster for the next 2 years and get another 2nd pick in a deep draft. WIN/WIN

 

[WrinkledPossum]

Loving what BA is doing. We're acquiring picks for a retool without trading any valuable pieces. We'll still be competitive while building a pipeline of prospects. Also Ghosts salary owed is quite low, 3.2M.

 

[Hogan20]

I remember watching him at Union College and thinking he could at least run a power play at the NHL level. Maybe he still has some of that left in him. I think change of scenery will benefit him extremely well.

 

[SR]

l'm reading it as GETTING a 2nd and 7th. Am I wrong? My apologies...

Not wrong, Friedman had it the wrong way.

Ghost, 2nd,7th for futures.

 

[Mosby]

Chychrun - Gostisbehere
??? - Stralman
??? - Bush

Something like that?

 

[Schemp]

We're collecting all the 2nd rounders!

[Knights2017]

BA = The Anti Chayka

 

[MIGs Dog]

We're collecting all the 2nd rounders!

Which is cool, but also at some point might be included in a deal to gain a 1st round pick.

 

[Foggy1097]

Can always just flip Ghost at one of the next two TDL’s for additional assets too, so that’s cool.

 

[Jagged Ice]

BA isn't f***ing around with these draft picks. haha

I'm pleased. I bet we end up with a first rounder either through a package of 2nds or Keumper.
