Trying to do right by a vet?

We get a 7th I'll be happy

 

[BUCKSHOT]

another 3rd rounder ?

probably less

 

[Chainshot]

Chicago needs guys. I was expecting it to be Hino but maybe they throw Bjork a bone now with Tuch out of the lineup and a need to keep Hinostroza around.

 

[EmeraldCitySabre]

Somebody wanted Bjork!?!?!? For more than a bag of practice pucks?

 

[The Blunder Years]

Nice! More cap space to not be used!

 

[toddkaz]

Futures?

 

[Jacob582]

Olofsson included please!

 

[TehDoak]

Gotta think its just futures, or a 7th at best.

Probably just trying to do him a solid. He talked Hino into coming and was a good room guy by all accounts.

Nice! More cap space to not be used!

As an RFA, it was more likely that he wouldn't be tendered.

 

[Jacob582]

Hopefully for an AHL center.

 

[Gabrielor]

picks/prospects coming.

Whatever it is, good deal.

 

[Ace]

Clear up that cap space baby

 

[BuffaloGooner]

Good for Bjork

 

[start winnin]

This trade is making me upset something is wrong with me

 

[Gabrielor]

Eh. I guess it's future considerations?

I wasn't really expecting much value here, but looks like no org value. Just giving a guy another NHL shot.

 

[Jacob582]

Bjork has negative value. Good trade.

 

[Gras]

Clear up that cap space baby

Because it had nothing to do with giving him another shot in the NHL instead of being buried in Roch since he was likely going to not be qualified anyways.

 

[Zman5778]

One day I'd like to see our old friend Future Considerations find a stable home. Someplace he can have a stable career. He's earned it.

Would be his 5th FC trade.

It does a guy who the players liked a good turn. He wasn't very good on the ice in Rochester either, so it's not like they're pulling much out of the Amerks lineup scoring wise.

 

[Gabrielor]

Clears 475k in cap too! Big moves, friends.

 

[Jacob582]

Since I'm the one......

It still makes no sense to me why they didn't buy him out last summer.

 

[WiHockeyGuy]

One of those moves that may not seem like much but is one of those goodwill gestures that pays off in the long run. I dig it.

The real question is will their be an Anders Bjork tribute video the next time Chicago is in town?
