Well. I hope the return is good at least.

 

[Oberyn]

Ugh, would have preferred it if he was traded to the East. Perron seems like the type of player that will bite us in the ass whenever he plays against us.

 

[ExJbeck]

Damn we better be adding to get someone better in return

 

[Colt 55]

Please be Gagner, please be gagner.

 

[Alklha]

I'll be very surprised if we are going to be winning this trade...

 

[Hooliganx3]

Honestly I hate Armstrong for adding Roy then trading Perron it's a poor move.

 

[bishop12]

It won't be more than picks/prospects. IMO

Hitch just soured on him.

 

[Captain Creampuff]

For a roster player and a pick....OH GOD

 

[Alklha]

Please be Gagner, please be gagner.

Now being reported as a player & pick, and the fact that Gagner would likely be in the same salary range as Perron would make that unlikely.

Worried it is going to be Hemský with retained salary and a second.

His last season was his worst IMO. Tried to do too much.

 

[Thallis]

Trade Board says MPS + 2nd. Not sure if it was worth it.

Magnus Pääjärvi & a 2nd for him.

I'm actually happy with that.

 

[Use the Schwartz*]

Was frustrating.

 

[ExJbeck]

At first glance i don't like the move at all, time will tell.

 

[Joey Moss]

You guys are going to love Paajarvi.

Horrible deal for us Armstrong screwed this one up. MPS is of no use for us. Should have been for a first instead.

People are making those two events connected, but I really don't think they are. The decision to trade Perron is about shaping the team the way he wants it. Roy is a short-term solution that will be addressed more long-term by a trade or at next year's UFA period.

I wish David luck. He's a true professional and very talented.

I think the Blues are set for the coming season now, and it looks like Jaskin has a spot on the 3rd line, if he can earn it.

 

[Oberyn]

I don't mind the trade, although it sucks to see one of our most skilled players be traded away. PRV looked good in the games I saw him in, I think he could thrive under Hitchcock. He's like a faster Steen.

 

[2 Minute Minor]

The return is Magnus Paajarvi and a 2nd?

 

[brendan]

Good luck Perron

Indeed

with MPS coming back no room for Jaskin still. Also MPS is a RFA that still needs a contract that will most likely be within a million of what Perron made....
