good traed

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

I like getting Bokk.

 

[TheReelChuckFletcher]

Bokk is a great prospect, equivalent to 1st round pick value. He was drafted 25th overall last year, only 19, right-handed shot. Would not be surprised if Edmundson is flipped. Good trade!

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Not terrible. Logjam still exists. Edmundson is another LHD lol.

Basically acquiring Bokk for Faulk while still having a major logjam at LHD.

 

[toastmasterbone]

As in Bokkanalia? Our storm surge just got more interesting.

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Mods fix typo of Edmundson in title pls.

 

[GoldiFox]

Bokk was #50 in Pronman's recent NHL prospect rankings. Good right hand shot forward prospect.

Canes PP is the true winner in the deal

 

[Nikishin Go Boom]

Are we doing another trade then? Fleury and Edmundson for 3rd LHD. Doesn’t make sense.

 

[tarheelhockey]

I guess this is OK. Was kind of hoping for someone who could come in and make a more immediate impact.

 

[Boom Boom Apathy]

Would think there is another move in the works?

Slavin, Gardiner, Edmundson, Fleury, Forsling, Sellgren, Bean? I realize Sellgren and Bean will likely not be on the roster,but still seems like a logjam.

They're trading Slavin

#stanleycupchampion Joel Edmundson

Yeah im confused as hell. Why are we still picking up D.

Yikes, Faulk signed a 7 year $6.5m AAV extension in St. Louis

 

[AD Skinner]

Wasnt there a guy named Bok in Dark Forces 2 with two lightsabers? Awesome

 

[Anton Dubinchuk]

Can Edmundson PK?

Edmundson can play both sides, though he's a left shot.

I imagine STL needs to shed that money this season for the deal to work.

 

[DougieSmash]

I like Edmundson a lot. Strange.

 

[cptjeff]

Edmundson is whatever. Competent enough guy for the bottom pair, and gone in a year. Still promise left, but if he shows plays well we'll have to pay him. But we get a high quality prospect.

Good for Faulk, man, he got insane money and goes to the defending Cup champs. If you have to leave a great situation in Carolina, go there. Happy for him, he's a great player.

 

[Fogelhund]

Can Edmundson PK?

Yes. He's averaged about two minutes per game on the PK>

 

[My Special Purpose]

I love this team.

And for the record, thanks to Justin for being a great dude through the past eight seasons. He had some really nice seasons and for a time, looked like he could be a perennial All-Star type player. It didn't work out here and there was a clear changing-of-the-guard that left him without a spot. I'm glad he's going somewhere that he can play regularly and have a chance to win. I've got nothing against the guy personally, and I wish him all the best.

Also, I love this team, and I can't believe this sets up *yet another* trade.

 

[Kaako Kappo]

No more Faulk on #1 PP is the best part of this deal.
