If you don't like this trade, Tony Androckitis speculated that it was Vorobyev going to the Ducks instead of Criscuolo.

Already go to the bed, Fletcher!

Afwul, no need moves... My god.

 

[DancingPanther]

"obtained" lol

That sounds about right. A 4th round pick for this guy who is not an upgrade. A 5th round pick for a sideways depth move is one thing, but I don't know about this one.

All I have to say is we better not be seeing dumb lineup decisions with these guys

 

[Curufinwe]

Yeah, cause Bunnaman is the answer at 4C in 2020.

 

[tictactoe]

I got Nate move... I am not sure about this one... I do not watch Ducks so I have no idea.. Is that our scorer?

 

[AdamParrot]

Yeah, cause Bunnaman is the answer at 4C in 2020.

Who said that?
Frost on 3C and Laughton/Raffl on 4C would be much better than these shits.

I don't want these players... Done, bad, slow players who can only hits and block because of they are defendind a lot of time when they are on ice...

 

[Rich Nixon]

Can't have multiple 4th lines without multiple 4th line centers.

 

[FlyerNutter]

Not sure why Grant AND Thompson.

Thank god there aren’t a couple of young guys (Frost, Bunn) in the organization who could have likely given you a higher level of play - while being developed at the same time.

 

[PALE PWNR]

Know nothing about Derek Grant but his wiki page says his nickname is Elite 1C and he's missing front teeth, so obviously he is the answer to all our problems.

 

[Flyer lurker]

Preferred Grant to Thompson so I get this trade more. Thompson better be 13 and not Kubel or even Farabee after last game 4th line demotion.

Slow, huh. You really studied these guys closely.

Our new 4C’s baby: (cuz you need two...)

 

[Rich Nixon]

Damn we added "Nasty" Nate Thompson and a guy born on 4/20? Clearly Vigneault needed more party people in the room.

As unexcited as I am by these additions...I mean, come on. A lot of you talking like this couldn't pick Nate Thompson or Derek Grant out of any room full of Connors and Kevins and Braydons. They're perfectly serviceable NHL 4th liners who aren't "done" or particularly "slow." You can be unenthused without being wrong for no damn reason.

 

[Curufinwe]

Should of traded for a 4C that leads his team in CF/60 and GF/60.

 

[bb12]

Love frost, but let’s face it, he didn’t do anything his time here. Grant and Thompson are upgrades and depth to 4c and the 13th forward.

these guys will not hold frost back next year when he is truly ready for the nhl. Bunny has been serviceable but isn’t the answer for a Cup run.

 

[FatTugboatFlahr]

Maybe we could’ve traded for someone who isn’t a 4th liner.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

Grant lead the forwards in SH time and had 3 shortys, so that’s good.

but they could and will be lucky as Hagg in here and all of us will love them for getting us the cup! heard it here first!

All I'm asking for is a 20g/30a guy down there. Doesn't have to be like, a 3C, just a 4C who can put up 50+ points.

 

[flyersjim73]

As long as Aube-Kubel remains in the lineup then I have no issue with adding depth.

Could have traded a 1 2 for 1/4 year rental of above. I sure wouldn't have.

 

[tictactoe]

Ahl move?

 

[Rich Nixon]

I think it'll be a rotation for a bit--you might see NAK or Raffl sitting in favor of one of these two in a game early on. And when the injuries hit, you'll see the full complement. Bunnaman is obviously the first out.

 

[NicolasAubeKubel]

Terrible moves. Frost and Patrick are better options.
