The wait for details is horrible lol

To be fair this thread has jumped the gun…being confirmed by Seravalli is almost as bad as being confirmed by Yohe

I still legitimately cannot believe that Petry did not have Montreal on his NTC. It blows my mind after all of the crap we heard last year about him wanting out.

Maybe it was just the COVID restrictions and nothing else.

I will giggle if it turns out he doesn't want to go back, but made the gamble of thinking they'd never want him back and he could safely leave them off.

Pagnotta has also confirmed it fwiw.

Friedman confirmed it

No he says they’re working on it…not same thing as done deal

That would have been a hilariously dumb gamble by Petry because Montreal actually makes sense as a team that needs a guy like Petry

Their only top-4 RD is Savard and he's not particularly good.

Well I was going to start exercising but instead I'm just going to sit here and continually click 'refresh'.

Figures I'm out and about.

The trade call for this is probably pretty complicated. Might take a bit to get details. I bet theres a ton of restrictions on the picks

 

[Zirakzigil]

Petry to the Habs is complete LOL!

Nervous what the cost is in all of this

 

[Lust for Life]

ITS MASSIVE LADS

Chances are this won’t end up working out spectacularly, but Karlsson is probably the only guy that’s been moved this offseason that could potentially be a difference maker for the team. So kudos to Dubas. He’s at least taking a big swing.

Also damn that trade is not bad at all.

Holy f***ing shit bro. Nice to have a GM with some stones

 

[KareemTrustfund]

DUBAS YOU SON OF A GUN YOU DID IT

 

[BillyOcean]

I'm just very grateful Rossi and Yohe had this breaking news first. Can't wait until they get to live Yohes dream he had of picking Karlsson up at the airport.

 

[Malkinstheman]

Pens made out like bandits. 2024 1st + 2025 2nd + Legare + Granlund +Petry + Rutta

 

[Andy99]

Nice…I really like the trade…no washed up oldies coming back to Pit and no first round picks past this season

 

[Trade]

if EK can help bring our PP and depth scoring back from the dead, I will be ecstatic.

Probably the most excited for a trade I’ve been since Phil.

 

[Dominance]

OH MY f***ING GOD

Is there retention on Granlund and Petry? If not - oh my god. That is INSANELY GOOD

 

[Empoleon8771]

Lmao the Penguins only gave up a single 1st in the deal.

Massive win by Dubas

 

[Lust for Life]

Petry retained 25%, Karlsson for $1.5M, not sure how much % that is

The first rounder we sent are top 10 protected

 

[Malkinstheman]

Man im so f***ing happy. Got EK and only gave up the 2024 1st. Great job Dubas
