GDT: NHL Trade Deadline 2018 | Feb. 26, 2018 | 3:00pm ET | 21:00 CET

[Brie]

Sounds like we're getting McD...

 

[Brie]

Big haul for Detroit there.

 

[Iceman]

That Tatar haul scares me but has to be less than what we offered for Karlsson.

 

[Brie]

Pat Maroon is going to NJ.

 

[Stormbreaker]

Wish he dumped Sustr for a pick somewhere.

 

[T REX]

Now beat those canadian maple leaves

 

[Vasilevskiy]

Another masterpiece by the Yzergod. Only one that makes me even consider a username change

 

[DFC]

Wish he dumped Sustr for a pick somewhere.

Aren't we carrying 9 defensemen right now?

Somebody's probably gonna have to go through waivers.

 

[Iceman]

Steve Da Vinci Yzerman

 

[Stormbreaker]

 

[Matt Watson]

Islander fan invading your space. Do you SOBs know how lucky you are to have a GM who knows wtf he's doing and an owner willing to let him do it? It is both maddening (as a fan of another team) and a pleasure to watch such a well run franchise operate. Good luck.

 

[CupsOverCash]

SY is amazing.

 

[JAY7791]

We fleeced them so bad.

 

[Powerplay17]

Fantastic trade. I’ve never been a huge SY fan but he pulled off another winner with the Rangers.

Excellent!

 

[Cmac66]

How does Yzerman generally do it

Never been a Stevie Y fan? Do you have something against extreme competence in everything a person does? Oh wait, I get it , you must be from Chicago.

 

[RegularSznAllStars]

It would have driven me nuts to not see this team do anything to fix its holes. If you make trades to improve, and get beaten in a good series, it happens. But, if we would have sat back and ignored our weaknesses, and then lost because of that, it would have been extremely frustrating.

Winners imo

-Tampa
-Pittsburgh
-Winnipeg
-Nashville
-Blue Jackets
-Devils

Losers

-Toronto (Plakenic... really? thats all you did? Good luck with that d-core in the playoffs)
-Montreal (Should have dealt Pac and got a solid return)
-Ottawa (Could have gotten a lot of nice pieces trading some of the players, just commit to the rebuild like the Rangers who have a lot of draft picks this year)
-Kings (they took Phaneuf, enough said)

I disagree on a lot of your winners. Winnipeg and Pittsburg while adding a nice 3C, still paid a 1st + for a 3C. Nashville paid a 1st + for a 3rd line wing so that's not good. We paid a 1st + but got a top 4 defender which is a much better return. Jersey and Columbus added some depth and didn't pay too much so that's good.

I disagree that Ottawa and Montreal lost. They can still trade Pacioretty and Karlsson before the draft and get a good return. There's also more teams available to trade with as well, until we see a return it's hard to call them losers. Phaneuf is actually pretty good, overpaid for sure but a tough defender to play against and with Gaborik going to other way didn't cost much.

Winners: TB, PIT, CBJ, SJ, NYI
Losers: OTT, VAN, BUF

 

[LTIR Trickery]

We fleeced them so bad.

Not really, at all. We gave up a roster player, likely two firsts, and two very very good prospects. Hajek is a big loss, no matter how you look at it. We can afford it, though, and thats the difference.

Not crazy about Nashville actually .
