Confirmed Trade: [NYR/PHI] Flyers trade J-F Berube to NYR in exchange for future considerations

[captainpaxil]

Flyers can bring up krill the conqueror to the ahl and open up a contract spot for the guys finishing college soon. Great move even if it is for null value

 

[SingnBluesOnBroadway]

Like nothing, or the flyers might need someone and the Rangers return the favour

Like a quid pro quo?

 

[Ignatius]

The last time the Flyers got rid of a Berube the next team that got him won the Stanley Cup.

Congrats NYR, the parade...

...plan it.

Like a quid pro quo?

Like pro bono... unless somehow, someday we might find something we want in return

 

[Pandaman11]

Berube is the Mike Sillinger of goalies

Steal. Future Considerations has been having a great season

Steal. Future Considerations has been having a great season

You are out of your mind to trust that guy. He's injury prone and you never know what you're going to get from him in the long term.

I would not be surprised if it is Lundquist moved maybe to Colorado.

 

[Gospel of Prospal]

Zerter-Gossage and McCollum going the other way

 

[GAGLine]

I still have no idea what “future considerations” even means

In computer terms, it's a zero instead of a null.

 

[cwede]

 

[MasterMatt25]

Well then

Given how many goalies the Rangers currently have, a bit of a surprise to see them acquire one. Must be another trade in the offing. Can't see them moving Lundqvist though.

They only have 5 on NHL contracts, and Berube is done after this season.

I still don't understand what exactly "future considerations" means.

Is there any site that actually tracks what the "future considerations" are in trades like this? It would be pretty funny to see some of the far-fetched clauses that end up in these trades.

So if I'm reading this right, all that is left to do is trade the future considerations from the Berube deal for the future considerations from this deal. Neat.

y'all get that this deal is complete now, no secret futures

since a deal coannot be simply an AHL contract for an NHL contract, it was 2 distinct deals, an AHL deal and a NHL deal

but both teams improved as they needed to

NYR add a better goalie at HWP for the balance of the season

Flyers move out Berube, making room so their prospect Ustimenko, who was in ECHL, can move up to AHL, and get a goalie they can send to ECHL
(players on NHL contracts that are not ELC cannot be sent to ECHL...)

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

Futures will be a slight Fast discount

 

[Flukeshot]

Cool, the ever rare NHL and AHL contracts dual trade

 

[jetsforever]

NYR is the last team I figured would want to add a goalie, but maybe it's an AHL move.

 

[cwede]

Cool, the ever rare NHL and AHL contracts dual trade

i posted on the NYR area, but this dialogue is ongoing in parallel

2 years back NYR/HWP and Caps/Bears made a similar deal to shuffle players on AHL rosters
it was sort of announced as 1 deal, but was really 2 distinct deals
(today's was trickier because it involved only NHL player going one way, only AHL players going the other way)

the guys on NHL deals was one deal Chapie<>Albert
the guys on AHL deals was the other Whitney<>LaBrie

As far as I understand it, future considerations can be literally anything - "buy me a cup of coffee the next time you see me." could be future considerations.

Its the official equivalent of "A bag of pucks."

 

[bigdog16]

This is pretty clearly an expansion draft move. Shesterkin is exempt, protect Georgiev, expose Berube

I never thought of it that way, but you're right - that's EXACTLY what it is.

 

[cwede]

This is pretty clearly an expansion draft move. Shesterkin is exempt, protect Georgiev, expose Berube

pretty clearly?
Berube can walk summer '20 (in a few months)
expansion draft G exposee must be either signed for '21-22 or RFA in summer '21

there is no reason, at this point, to believe this move is any thing but a backup for Hartford for this season only ( a vet for playoff run, a mentor for Huska and hopefully Wall)

but yes NYR will need to offer a qualified goalie to Seattle,
a 2 year extension to Berube could meet that

This is pretty clearly an expansion draft move. Shesterkin is exempt, protect Georgiev, expose Berube

Berube is a UFA this summer.

 

[tictactoe]

I think Flyers win this trade.
I do not want to hear any negative comments about it.
And Eklund did not see it coming.
