GDT: Official Trade Deadline Thread II

[Thirty One]

Pyatt won't be playing when Dorsett gets back.

Hagelin-Stepan-Nash
Clowe-Richards-Callahan
MZA-Brassard-Dorsett
Powe-Boyle-Asham
Pyatt

That's a bold statement considering Powe and Asham have both been scratched in favor of Pyatt recently.

 

[Kakko]

Younger, better defensively, cheaper contract, having a better year.

Wouldn't say he's having a much better year. He's been terrible since Vanek started getting hurt

 

[16 To Stanley*]

Crazy price for Poms. Gotta wonder what Gabby's value would have been if he was playing up to par, but then again, why would we trade him in that case?

That's absurd.

Minny trying to stack their offense.

I really like Poms but he is 30. I mean that's a lot of good young talent for a guy that age.

 

[NYR Viper]

That's a bold statement considering Powe and Asham have both been scratched in favor of Pyatt recently.

I didn't say I agreed with their scratching. I don't like Pyatt.

 

[Thirty One]

I didn't say I agreed with their scratching. I don't like Pyatt.

So what you're saying is that you want Pyatt to be scratched when Dorsett gets back, not that he will be?

 

[16 To Stanley*]

I didn't say I agreed with their scratching. I don't like Pyatt.

without brassard right now, all three are in the lineup having traded gabby and sending down fast, kreids and miller.

so right now i'd prefer Torres over all three. and all three will be playing.

One of theories floated....Wash has trades Filip Forsberg. If that's the case...return must be huge. #tradecentre

Correct, if I had it my way, that would be my line-up. Pyatt as the extra forward.

I just read they recalled Miller for tonight.

Piggy backing off of Dreger:

Nick Cotsonika ‏@cotsonika 21s
Informed speculation: Erat for Forsberg, with some other things involved. Erat has a no-trade clause but wants out.

 

[Trxjw]

I just read they recalled Miller for tonight.

They did, but I think it's as a precaution of Brassard doesn't make it. He's rumored to be on a flight as I type this.

 

[nevesis]

“@RealKyper: Hearing the #Caps waiting on a trade to announce they've traded for #Preds Martin Erat. #tradetrackerâ€

 

[Clown Fiesta]

A lot of hooplah over Erat? Hope WSH gave up Foraberg for a 31yr old.

 

[Thumpz]

So now we buy out Richards this summer and sign Weiss and Horton.

 

[NYR Viper]

Seems like a lot for Erat?

 

[16 To Stanley*]

They did, but I think it's as a precaution of Brassard doesn't make it. He's rumored to be on a flight as I type this.

exactly.

miller was here this morning i believe and hadn't left yet. so he can still slot in tonight if brass doesn't show up. which saves us from starting gilroy as a forward.

he'll be back down tomorrow.

 

[Bluenote13]

Wow, Washington's Filip Forberg to Nashville for Erat and Mike Latta

 

[The Gloaming]

Wow, Washington buying.

Erat and Laata for Filip Forsberg.

 

[Paulie Walnutz]

Lol Washington

 

[Net Front Presence]

Caps got fleeced!

 

[Kakko]

Well, that makes me feel better

 

[Killem Dafoe]

lol Caps with the dumbest move of the day.

 

[nyr2k2]

GMGM, just awful.

 

[Bluenote13]

Caps got fleeced!

It looks weird and in favor Nashville, IF Forsberg ends up a very good player. He has yet to play one NHL game.

 

[trilobyte]

Bryan Murray made a smart trade today.

Getting Conacher for Ben Bishop makes real sense. Tampa Bay had to shore it up in net, and yet there is not enough evidence that Bishop is going to become a starter. Even if he does pan out well, the Senators still have Lehner. Murray's betting that Craig Anderson comes back as strong as he was, and that's a good gamble, based on evidence.
And he lands Conacher, who looks like he could really be something.
