Confirmed Trade: [FLA/CBJ] Markus Nutivaara for Cliff Pu

[DistantThunderRep]

great deal for the kitty cats

 

[Merrrlin]

Doesn't fit TOR's needs on D.

What?

 

[bukwas]

I had actually forgotten all about Pu. I thought he had potential when drafted but he just fell off the map like a small sand island after a tsunami.
Nutivaara is worth his contract so great trade for the Panthers.

 

[Twain]

Well Kukan took his place this season and he was #7 during the playoffs. 2.7m is too much for that role in a flat cap world. Still shocked that they had to give him away and couldn’t even get a late pick. He is quite good after all and the cap hit is also reasonable. But I guess nobody wanted to give up anything of value.

 

[Mogo]

Leave the clever retorts to me.

Tell me when you post the first one

Leave the clever retorts to me.

clever implies wit

speaking of which. zito was pretty clever with this deal. i wonder if there is another shoe to drop tomorrow?

Pu surprises when you least expect it

 

[Suntouchable13]

The handshake celly.

I actually like it.

pu beat me to it

 

[TheImpatientPanther]

What?

Just a joke, smooth things over from our dispute the other day
TOR better get in on Tanev before the RD well dries up.
He'd be a solid fit.

 

[ICanMotteBelieveIt]

....feces.

Pu, i mean boo...

 

[MPGA]

The nutty pu trade. Zito must have been eating peanuts

 

[Jumptheshark]

had to google both their names

 

[CaptainScrewy]

Just stopping in to say the Pu jokes are all terrible, pathetic and predictable.. None of you will be the funny guy in any group, ever.

Don't Pu Pu our humor!

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

Well, you know what the Irish say... try to fill one hand with wishes and the other hand with Pu and see which fills up first. Seems Columbus found out.

 

[SI90]

Love it for Florida

 

[CarolinaBlueJacket]

I really dont expect the CBJ to go after Hall, but 2 UFAs would be interesting. They would need to clear space for that. We all know that Jarmo likes to make bold moves.

It's a weird move for sure. Jarmo is a bright dude. There has to be another side to it.

 

[CoachWithNoTeam]

Nuti is a good player on a great contract. He’ll end up in Florida’s top 4, although I would more comfortably describe him as a #5. Zito got a steal and he knows it. I expected Jarmo and Zito to work together to help Florida upgrade their D but this isn’t quite what I expected.

Jarmo got a little cap space. For TBD.

It doesn’t feel good right now as a Jackets fan, but he was not penciled in our starting 6. Very curious what Jarmo has up his sleeve because he has been high on Nuti since the draft.

 

[Viqsi]

Any Columbus fans want to give us the run down on him? His ice time was comparable to kukan. Is he strictly a 3rd pairing or can he comfortably play on the 2nd line if needed? Does he play both sides? Capfriendly has him listed as a RD but he’s left handed

Second pairing normally - he was just pushed down by us having good guys elsewhere (and Gavrikov really taking off). Plays either side effectively. Decent passer and puckmover. Has pretty much no physical game, and while his shot isn't terrible it's not really all that great either. He's a Universal Fill-In.

 

[QuadDeuces]

I'm just here for the Pu jokes.

 

[Bitz and Bites]

Well at least Columbus won’t have to worry about anyone picking up Pu...


In the expansion draft.

 

[BobClarkesfrontteeth]

Have to feel a bit for Priskie on this one. He moved from Carolina where he was block to now get blocked again in Florida. He was suppose to be NHL ready.

Panther’s have
Ekblad Weeger
Yandle Nutivaara
Stralman Stillman
Keeper

If he can’t beat out one of the bottom 3 he doesn’t deserve a spot.
