Confirmed with Link: Peter Holland traded to Chicago

[cwede]

K'Andre* is LHD
Phone autcorrected to Keane

I meant Joey Keane. He and Nils are RHD

 

[Inferno]

Dominoes.


Just making sure someone said it.

Correct. Reading is hard for me, okay?

I wish I could have seen Gortons face when the Hawks offered a prospect for Holland.

When I saw that Holland was traded, I hoped for yet another 2020 7th rounder, but I assumed it was for an old AHL vet. To get a prospect is great. McLeod, Mazanec, Holland. Not that we got a lot for them, but in all 3 cases it's something for nothing.

 

[offdacrossbar]

i mean its not the trade i was looking for and its found money and all, but meh.

he does nothing for me.

rightys can suck too.

nothin to see here.

 

[Irishguy42]

This means Lias is now the 1C in Hartford

 

[Charlie Conway]

As a lot have said, we were probably going to lose him anyway, but it's nice to have those AAAA players in Hartford, both as veterans and as emergency call-ups so no one is forced into anything before they're ready.

Nice to have a real, live RHD, though.

 

[nyr2k2]

Does Raddysh crack our top 20 prospect pool?

He's right in that range. Some people would say yes, others no. I'd say he's somewhere in the 15-25 range depending on what you value when ranking.

I hope so and I hope it gets him going. They could also go with Fogarty. We'll see how they line them up, I guess. Could even move Lettieri back to C.

A Peter Holland trade has generated 3 pages. Color me impressed.

Hey, he was Hartford's leading score. Now it's Gilmour.

I figured it was the easy move since he has been the 2C there for a long while.

Yeah, agreed, however nothing McCambridge ever does seems to make any sense.

They have the following potential centers: Andersson, Fogarty, Lettieri, Fontaine, and... O'Donnell? I recall him playing some C. It's almost like you have to move Lettieri to center, because otherwise who plays there? Of course, then you have literally just Gettinger and maybe Meskanen that can actually produce on the wings. Butler I suppose, but he's awful. Hartford is such a mess.

Another whatever trade, but it’s a win for Gorton, in my opinion. From what I’ve seen and read, Raddysh doesn’t have a ton of potential, but can possibly become a bottom pairing defenseman. I value skating and hockey sense more than any other attributes when evaluating prospects, and Raddysh is good at one (hockey sense), while bad at the other (skating). And although he’s a righty, we have wayyy too many potential #5-7 defensemen in the system.

 

[Joey Bones]

Good gamble, albeit a small gamble. Raddysh has a solid defensive game. Think he's about on par with O'Gara. Good for Holland, who gets a shot at the Calder Cup. Gives an opportunity for guys like Lias, Gettinger, Fontaine a better chance for top line play. Also, could lead to Ronning staying with Hartford for the year.

Positive moves!!

 

[bobbop]

This is a trade to help Rockford’s offense. They don’t score very much but they are in a playoff position.

I don’t know anything about Raddysh but he’s young, has pretty good numbers and is a right hand shot. What more could you want?

His brother. Pretty good prospect for TB.

 

[egelband]

Always be managing assets upward. No big deal in itself but if Gorton does four or five of these each year they’ll add up.

 

[Kakko Schmakko]

Can we get his brother too?

I have a feeling we will.

 

[NYRKING30]

I have a feeling we will.

Gilmour could have been a great forward. Maybe we can get a 2020 7th rounder for him as well as Tokarski, Butler, Bigras, O'Gara, Lettieri, Brickley, and Fogarty.

 

[darko]

If it means a bigger role for Lias I'm all for it.

 

[egelband]

Where were you the day the Rangers traded Holland?

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Rumor has it, Gorton was actually eyeing their 7th round pick but they already traded that one away in the Rutta/Koekkoek trade

They still have their 2020 #7 that is the draft the Rangers are monopolizing 7th round picks. Gorton Fail.
