Post-Game Talk: NHL TRADE DEADLINE DAY 8 AM - ESPN+, NHLN, TSN, SN, NESN @ 2:30

[rfournier103]

After everything we’ve seen the Bruins do this week, we can’t expect another move coming today. Not only that, I have to believe all the major pieces around the rest of the league have already been moved. I’d be shocked if anyone made a splash today.

 

[Oates2Neely]

There’s virtually no upside to moving Reilly or Wags now. We’re not going to be able to bank space so I’d rather have them and deal with Reilly in the summer.

If someone/ anyone is willing to take Reilly now you absolutely have to move him. Seeing as how he cleared waivers earlier this season, he will garner zero interest today.

I feel for the kid, I know I shouldn't because he's making a ton of money that Donny gave him but he should be playing in the NHL somewhere.

Maybe a few Dmen got banged up last night around the league

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

Vrana to Blues at 50% retained for a 7th

Bonino to Pittsburgh, but trade call not done yet.

 

[Blowfish]

I expect Hurricanes and Bolts to make some big trades. Boston might surprise...interesting Dom believes something could happen.

 

[Gee Wally]

Theyre still holding this?
Go figure.

 

[Alicat]

Vrana to St. Louis. Good move and he'll have the support as well.

Smart add.

Very. Just hope he continues to get better from whatever he was dealing with.

Why? Wasn't the motivation to trade Reilly to save on the bonus overage next year? And from my understanding that point is now moot with Hall and LTIR. At this point, he's just playoff depth.

 

[Kegs]

He is very talented. I’m sure he will be fine. He has time to figure it out over there too. Kinda the perfect fit.

 

[JerseyBruin]

Bruins have acquired Seidenberg, Campbell and Horton for Bitz Kaspers Daugavins and a three year supply of Mikes Pastry


Bitz and Daugavins were throw ins

Daugavins was a throw in but missed the open plane door and was left on the tarmac.

Because he’s 3m on your cap next season unless you buy him out. If there’s a team desperate for a dman right now, moving Reilly is a no brainer. 3m off next seasons cap, no buyout necessary

 

[AngryMilkcrates]

TSN has nothing to talk about so....
ALL TORONTO ALL THE TIME

Everything is about the Leafs.....

augh

 

[Trizz617]

Daugavins was a throw in but missed the open plane door and was left on the tarmac.

Lol....ouch

 

[Number8]

I expect Toronto to do something. Maybe add a 4th defenseman???

Hell, the difficulty rating on incorporating 50% change in your defense in March is high. But Dubas is an overachiever and wants to go for the quadruple, double inverted pike off the low board.

I predict a belly flop, but hey ho -- no guts no glory.

 

[pgm16]

Theyre still holding this?
Go figure.

I completely forgot this morning, usually I take the day off from work....lol

 

[22Brad Park]

Hockey Central is nearly insufferable its a Leaf love fest .That Jennifer Botteril is so full of shit it's not funny.And Anson Carter contradicts himself saying they move Sandin and add dump and chase D men which means wingers have nose to glass if they want puck followed by 2 mins later saying Leafs have a chance.Bieska,laughed at him though and said "go wan your on Canadisn TV "

4th D man? They have 9 now.

Unless there's some big off the wall name for CAR, I feel like most of their logical targets have already moved.

Right. I'm assuming a buyout is a given for him over the summer which I think the cap hit is $333,333 next year and then $1.3M the year after. Seems like his best use is for playoff depth at this point and then move on. Doesn't hurt to have insurance for this year when the hit isn't too bad once you buy him out.

Babysitting my youngest niece and I've watched the same episode of Elmo on YouTube so far this morning, not exaggerating ....13 times.

This trade deadline isn't going to be exciting today I know it. And I'm just gonna drown in Elmo

Put on Bluey and let it ride.

Thank me later.

 

[Olden McGroin]

I guess there won't be an HF board crash this time, since most of the big names were already dealt

After years (no exaggeration) of ignoring Defense in favor of expensive Forward contracts, they finally seem to understand it might be necessary for playoff success. But at this stage they are left with strategy (?) of adding quantity rather than strategic quality.

Hell, they may add 3 more today at this rate.

 

[Mione134]

We are big Bluey fans! I'm hoping after the next rotation I can slip him in there or at the very least I can put on Barney. She loves both. But for some reason this "Counting to 5" song is hitting the spot this morning
