Crap return for Jurco.

 

[The Burdened]

Wasn't Pu the center piece for the Jeff Skinner trade?

 

[De Montreal]

im confused

 

[obey86]

Crap return for Jurco.

Huh?

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

Wait so why don’t they just say Pu for Jurco?

 

[Classicnamesup]

Legit though that was Puljujarvi and I was shook.

Why are these two separate trades? Pu for future considerations and Jurco for future considerations?

Why not just trade them for each other?

 

[King In The North]

Jeez trading Pu already?

 

[Del Preston]

Are those two separate transactions?

 

[JT Kreider]

That makes no sense. Jurco is worthless.

 

[LT]

Huh?

It's a (bad) pun.

 

[Brock Radunske]

It's pretty shocking that Carolina turned Skinner into Jurco and a couple late picks...

 

[Rob Brown]

What a weird trade.

 

[PhillyFaninMTL]

Huh?

Im assuming it's a Pu pun

 

[phillipmike]

Similar to the Leafs/Nashville trades.

Separate trades, both for future considerations

 

[Man Bear Pig]

What an odd trade.

 

[Brock Radunske]

Huh?

"Pu"

 

[Svechhammer]

And people thought we couldn't make anything out of the Skinner deal. Boom, we're winning the Cup now!

Pu-l-JurcoJärvi for sweet f*** all, as will be the case in a matter of years.

Don Waddell, President and General Manager of the National Hockey League's Carolina Hurricanes, today announced that the team has acquired left wing Tomas Jurco from the Florida Panthers organization in exchange for future considerations. In addition, the Hurricanes have traded forward Cliff Pu to the Panthers for future considerations.

What...? Why did they word it this way?

Jurco is on an AHL contract. The Pu trade was with the Panthers-Canes and the Jurco trade was with the Checkers-Thunderbirds.

 

[ShelbyZ]

I thought Jurco was only signed to an AHL deal?

Did the Panthers sign him to an NHL deal before the deadline and then deal him?

 

[llamateizer]

Why not trade Pu for Jurco?
EDIT: got the answer 2 posts above

 

[TheGroceryStick]

It's a (bad) pun.

You are wrong. I laughed.

 

[Soundgarden]

So Skinner for Junco and picks essentially.

 

[Classicnamesup]

Im assuming it's a Pu pun

Not a bad one but originally it said "crap return for Detroit" which is why I assume they "huh'd"

Calder Cup? Sure, sure...Checkers have a shot...
