Salary Cap: Penguins Trade Deadline Thread #66: We need more trade deadline snacks

[66-30-33]

Gross, I want Florida to win cup or Avs if Pens don't but they now got Giroux.

 

[Tender Rip]

Bizarre

 

[JRS91]

What an awful return for Giroux.

What an awful return for Giroux.

He had a full NMC and called his shot.

 

[Jobeycool]

Recent deals pretty much confirm what we already knew. It's going to take massive overpayments to even get half decent players.

This is what will bring I think, not 100% sure. This is how it seemed to be going before the last lockout with money and free agent problems. We may be trading for Tyler Bertuzzi but I will only believe it when it is done..

I don’t think anyone knows the full return yet

I think that Hextall being super patient might pay off. There are only so many buyers out there to mortgage their futures. The Penguins don't desperately need anything. They could do with a bit of help anywhere that isn't #1d or top 2 center. I say take whatever is left on deadline day.

Tippett, a 2024 1st and a 2023 3rd for Giroux and some no name AHL jobber as far as I can tell. Kinda a mediocre return but I don't think Philly was going to do any better than that.

 

[dogthateats]

Lol

 

[66-30-33]

Lol

Makes the deal even worse.

So Florida has no firsts for the next 3 drafts? lol

Dang they went all in... lol

Makes sense now that I look at it.. Yandle’s buyout penalty doubles to like 6 million next year. No way are they re-signing Marchment, Chiarot, Giroux AND dealing with that.

Did Giroux have a NMC? If he could pick his spot they might not have had a lot of leverage.

Full NMC

TIL about a couple ignore lists

Full NMC and he forced the trade to Florida. Philly wasn't going to do any better.

Per Kaplan Colorado and Boston offered more but CG wouldn’t waive his clause to go.

That’s called a Jim Rutherford hat trick.

 

[Peat]

At this rate 2023 deadline is going to be dull because nobody's got anything to spend.

Well, the Flyers seem to be accepting picks pretty far out, so they’ll probably trade Hart for a 2054 1st next year.

 

[OnMyOwn]

How likely is it Giroux just goes back to Philly next year? Any kind of return would be worth it. Hell any kind of return is worth it when the guy controls where he goes.

How dare you suggest the proud contender of Philadelphia will be anything other than major buyers next year.
