Confirmed with Link: Joseph and 4th from Tampa for Paul

[Yak]

6 degree's of separation:

On November 4, 2018 Joseph scored his first NHL goal in a 4–3 Lightning overtime win over the Ottawa Senators away at the Canadian Tire Centre.

Is this filler and a 4th?

Joseph is legit, and i’m quite impressed Dorian was able to get him for Paul.

 

[JetsFan815]

Paul is the better player. Ottawa should have re-signed him.

 

[BUCKLE UP]

I prepped myself to be disappointed with Kassian and this is even worse. I can’t believe we retained and couldn’t get a better pick.

 

[Gil Gunderson]

He was a role player, but he has a Cup and this team severely lacks players that have experienced any type of winning in this league.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

I believe Joseph has almost Formenton level speed

Should be cool to see them on the PK together

Hopefully they're not competing against each other to grab a breakaway. We know Formenton has cherry-picking tendencies, would be lovely if Joseph is similar.

 

[cudi]

wonder if Chabot is trying to talk him off the ledge

This is a Brutal trade. I like Joseph (FAST) but he’s a 13 minute a night player and Nick Paul is a better player already and plays more
Minutes.

Don’t like it because it’s not a max value - he easily could of gotten more

Nick Paul isn't going to play 17 minutes a night in TB, his TOI will likely fall down to 14-15 min.

I'm intrigued by Jospeh. Love his tenacity.

Thx

I like Joseph. He will get more ice here and be more productive.

 

[DJB]

I'm good with this. The alternative is that we would have overpaid to keep Paul. No thanks.

A cheap, faster player who plays a similar role.

Good deal.

 

[Tap on the Ankle]

Welcome to Ottawa, Mathieu. Apologies about the team, the weather, and the taxes.

That’s fine, He didn’t get good value on him.

I’m happy for Nick Paul he’s going to Tampa. He played hard for this team and wore that jersey with pride, stupid to trade a player like that.

Donkey Dorion

 

[Xspyrit]

lol poor Mathieu! Won't win another Cup but gotta think about yourself now, pad some stats to make more $$$


There's hope that he finds another gear so that trade isn't bad at all

Nick Paul is going to be sick on Tampa Bay, instant fan favorite. Hoipe he plays with Cirelli, Palat and/or Killorn

 

[Burrowsaurus]

Maybe joseph can flourish here with bigger role. Tampa is stacked. Maybe not the best showcase of his talents.

 

[Do Make Say Think]

This is fine.

Main takeaway is yet another UFA contract we refuse to sign... Connor Brown is as good as gone.

Joseph must be livid. Hopefully he is a good pro.

 

[Neil Patrick Harris]

Happy Birthday, Nick!

I've liked Joseph for a long time, but I think most here know I'm a big BDN fan. The fact that I'm not immediately violently and repeatedly puking while speeding down the 417 to Dorion's place of residence with a truck bed full of pitchforks right now is testament to the fact that I think we did okay here. I thought we would (sadly only) get a 2nd for Paul. I prefer Joseph to a 2nd and we got a 4th on top of it. Not the worst.

Edit: Not to mention my boy is going to a team that not a single person would be surprised to see win it all. Bonus right there. Looking forward to see him in the playoffs. Good luck Paul! Don't be afraid to circle back to us in free agency if you win it all this year!

 

[HSF]

Hopefully this turns out better than paquette

 

[SensBrawler]

Hope Paul wins a cup in Tampa.

 

[Butchy Dakkar]

I’ve always liked Joseph in my limited viewings… against us he was always noticeable.

Go get a cup Nick.

 

[Burrowsaurus]

I like that it’s for a roster player. I don’t need to wait 6 years to watch a second round pick develop.

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Did we seriously just trade one of our better valued players for a 4th liner and a.........4th round pick???

Please, for the love of all that is good, fire our POS GM right the f*** now.

 

[Tap on the Ankle]

Did we seriously just trade one of our better valued players for a 4th liner and a.........4th round pick???

No, we retained salary on him too

 

[L'Aveuglette]

Maybe joseph can flourish here with bigger role. Tampa is stacked. Maybe not the best showcase of his talents.

If you can't flourish on a team like Tampa at 25, I don't see how you'll suddenly get better playing with AHLers.
