Confirmed Trade: [BUF/CHI] Malcolm Subban for future considerations

[Zach716]

I'd be ecstatic... if this was 8 years ago.

 

[ManofSteel55]

Sabres can have Ullmark back

Has he been that bad? I thought he would do well in Boston.

 

[ManofSteel55]

The first of two Subban's to be traded for nothing this year.

 

[Jumptheshark]

Wait, but Buffalo already traded their future considerations to New Jersey for Will Butcher.

Clear violation of the CBA!

Not really--the FCs is this case is a night crashing on your couch

 

[Jumptheshark]

AHL goalie to you, #1 Starter to Buffalo...

also this is similar to how we got Hasek[/QUOTE]

that is a very bad comparison to make

Subban is the back up in the AHL

 

[SeanMoneyHands]

The franchise goalie Subban is on the move again?

 

[Crow]

Subban has the tools

 

[Chainshot]

Subban has the tools

...but can't open the toolbox?

 

[Foppberg]

Eh, no harm in it. Their goaltending sucks as it is, never know what could happen. He was highly thought of at one time for a reason, goaltenders are hella unpredictable.

 

[Djp]

But why? He's not that great. There's other goaltenders who would probably cost the same.

Geogiev?

 

[5 Minute Major]

Subban has the tools

So does Spiccoli's Dad.

 

[Djp]

So who’s waived ? It always shocks me Tokarski is still around

Dell would be sent down. Dell doesn’t have to clear waivers again until he hits 30 roster days or 10 games played.

Since buffalo is playing tonight the move can wait till after the game.

...but can't open the toolbox?

it uses a Windows 7 operating system

 

[Jacob582]

I wouldn't exactly call Subban a solution for the goaltender position

It's the same reason that Colorado traded for Jonas Johansson last year as a upgrade. Because Miska (like Dell) was rotten.

That and Buffalo was down to two available goalies on NHL deals.

Johansson sucks so I don’t know if I’d say that’s a trade to be emulated haha

 

[Der Jaeger]

Geogiev?

Sabres already traded Eichel. They can’t afford Georgiev, Kravtsov, etc anymore….

 

[Crow]

...but can't open the toolbox?

I feel like he forgets to at times. Also he likes to lose his net after making the first save.

 

[Jacob582]

Yeah, don't want to emulate that part.

The similarity is that with both JJ and Malcolm there are fans that say they suck. But they serve as an upgrade.

JJ has been able to find some wins with Colorado. Hopefully Subban can do the same despite not proving himself at the NHL level.

The team defense is making him look ok. He's been horrendous.

 

[Taylorst]

The writing was on the wall long ago for subbann and Delia, Chicago has to many goalies sitting in Rockford who have proven that at best their backup material .

I see the interim GM clearing out stans bad deals and gutting this team should they be out of the playoff race officially come February.

Rare footage of his net being plain old mean...

Yea, turning out to be a brutal signing so far.

 

[Three On Zero]

So does Spiccoli's Dad.

Not sure I would want a TV repair man in net

 

[The Crypto Guy]

4th team in 4 years? At a point you just need to understand he is not a NHL goalie..

More of an NHL goalie than Dell.
