Confirmed with Link: Kimmo Timonen traded to Chicago for 2015 2nd, conditional 2016 pick

[Flyotes]

Rico is above Kimmo.

 

[SnoCaps Perhaps]

Rico is above Kimmo.

I agree... though he was my favorite player back then so maybe I'm biased

 

[Beef Invictus]

I don't remember Eric being as good offensively as Timonen (though it's close), but I remember him being better defensively. It's a really close thing, I don't think I'd fault anybody for having one over the other.

Pronger/Howe, that's interesting. I'd go with Howe as well. He had far more impact considering he played a lot longer than Pronger did with Philly. And Howe at his best in Philly, from the games I've watched, was something to behold. I've only seen a fairly small number of those games but Howe struck me as being better than Pronger when he was a Flyer, chiefly because his skating was incredible. The Flyers could look like two totally different teams when he was on the ice vs when he was off. Of course, my frame of reference is small for Howe though, so it's not terribly reliable. But in those games he's easily one of the best players I've watched in the O&B. I'd put him in Clarke/Bernie/Lindros territory, but a step below them. His stat line from 85-86 is stupid-good.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Not rubbing it in, I promise, but figured that at least one name would be worthwhile to see:

Daniel carcillo?

 

[King Forsberg]

Daniel carcillo?

I think he meant Kevin Dineen.

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

Interesting to note a name not listed

Antti Raanta

Might just be the picture but look like a child wrote those names

 

[Hiesenberg]

Might just be the picture but look like a child wrote those names

I think they are done by hand.

It's done by hand and it's done small.

 

[Cootsfanclub]

I think he meant Kevin Dineen.

Dineen took the cup to my home town, he's a really cool guy.

I like that JVR's undrafted bother's name is on the cup and his isn't.

 

[CS]

I like that JVR's undrafted bother's name is on the cup and his isn't.

I like that we could be...

vanRiemsdyk - Giroux - Voracek
Gagner - Couturier - Simmonds
Read - Laughton - Schenn
Raffl - Belemare - Umberger

...with Konecky, Cousins, and Aube-Kubel on the way.

Causality be damned!


Honestly, I don't know if I'd trade TVR for LSchenn.



**** if that isn't the most frustrating thing to go down in the last decade of Flyerdom.

 

[Curufinwe]

Nah, the Pronger injury is worse.

If you wanna go with things the Flyers could control then the Sharp trade is also worse; Sharp > JVR, LSchenn > Ellison.

Or MFL's Finals meltdown and the fact Lavi didn't replace him with Boucher after he **** the bed in the first two games.

God, there really is a ton of **** to be miserable about isn't there?

But Timonen and Gagne are both on the Cup, so there's at least that tiny solace.

So are Richards, Carter, Sharp, Brind'Amour, Recchi, and Justin Williams, all multiple times and with different teams sans Brindy.

 

[Sawdalite]

I think he meant Kevin Dineen.

No, no... Patrick Sharp, clearly.

 

[deadhead]

Should be noted my fear of the cap penalty with regard to his bonus did infact happen

LTIR didn't cover his bonus hit so Hawks have 750k in dead cap space as a result of Timonen's bonus

Happy for guy winning cup but man is this deal brutal for Hawks overall

Anything that hurts you this season is fine by me.
That second round pick sure looks good.

Don't forget we used their 2015 2nd round pick along with Tampa Bays 1st round pick to trade up for Travis Konecny

Antti Raanta

I can't believe Clint Reif's name isn't on it. He contributed more than Carcillo did.
