[Mowzie]

Jake Bean available for a 2nd? Anyone?

Our next 2nd is in 2091 unfortunately.

 

[McFlash97]

no thanks, i watched him a ton in JR and the the mistakes he made there are still glaring, i thought he would have evolved as a player but he really hasnt much. had high hopes but i dont see it when i watch him play

 

[Beerfish]

(shrug) Seems like a great trade for the canucks if you ask me.

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

so I guess you can 'squeeze' other GM's

He has 4 rings, in case there was any doubt if he knows a thing or two about winning.

Where would we find a 2nd?

 

[CycloneSweep]

Aatu Raty will be our pick

 

[McAsuno]

also traded for Chris Chelios back in 93, baby!

 

[CornKicker]

Maybe because today is crazy. Honestly, when was the last time we had this many huge trades in one day?

hall/larsson, subban/weber, stamkos signing within a hour of each other was the last i recall

 

[Gregsky99]

After seeing some of the other trade losses by gm’s around this league I have some thoughts. 1.who would get screwed if Holland tried to traded there. 2. The Keith trade looks better now. 3. Thank god Holland forgot the numbers for Buffalo and Arizona this week

 

[duul]

Where does Jake Bean even fit into our lineup? 3rd pairing LHD? Don't think it's worth a 2nd when that pairing won't be playing many minutes.

Rather put a 2nd + players / picks / prospects into a bigger deal.

 

[Oilhawks]

If Holland made that trade, the whole board would want him fired immediately. So far none of our targets have gone at fair prices

 

[Ruok]

Our next 2nd is in 2091 unfortunately.

But we do have prospects

 

[lopper]

It’s refreshing seeing some other teams take on some terrible trades and not have Oil involved. Time to find someone to take the Koskinen salary dump

OEL makes a lot more sense for Vancouver than for us, but yes I agree with you.

Except Buchnevich and maybe Nedjelkovic (sp?)

 

[ChaoticOrange]

We all know there's no Koskinen trade

 

[Little Fury]

Koskinen @50%, 3 1sts to Buffalo for a 7th

 

[The Nuge]

How is that a loss for Vancouver? Even if we’re super conservative and call OEL a top 4 dman, that’s a top 4 dman and a top 6 forward for basically the same cap they were spending on 3 4th liners (or maybe even less)

 

[jesusbuiltmyhotrod]

Horrendous trade for Vancouver, no idea how anway can say they did well there.

 

[Oilhawks]

Except Buchnevich and maybe Nedjelkovic (sp?)

True, but apparently we weren’t in on them (would have liked Buch)

 

[TheNumber4]

That’s two defenceman in Risto and OEL traded today away from tire fire teams. It’ll be interesting to see if they rebound. Happens all the time.

 

[CycloneSweep]

True, but apparently we weren’t in on them (would have liked Buch)

And that's a mistake

Try projecting your imagination farther out than this year and it should become clear to you.
