WSH paid more than market rate on Jensen, but Bowey was already the odd man out there. That's a win-win trade.
Was just wondering if the shine is that far off Bowey?

Eh no. It's more like a 23 year old Connor Carrick and a 2nd.
what suggests he is good enough for top4 D from game 1?. good enough for the NHL? yeah by the end of the season he likely will be but why are we forcing him over his head right away
By watching him play? But sure, he will need to show he's good enough when he eventually plays for the Leafs, which will be in the very near future.

Disappointing they don't have any defenders that can help, not all the Marlies are teenagers.

I remember the JVR trade return from Washington this board wanted bowey. That's a decent haul for Detroit. Its basically Liljegren and a 2nd no? not a chance I do that
I don't mind Glendening esp if it is for Brown. As Glendening is an upgrade to Brown in every way, from their play on ice to their contract.First of all I think Babcock has a ton of say in player personnel or Gardiner, Hainsey, Brown, Zaitsev would be dealt away by now. Dubas loves the guys who can play Nylander, Marner, Johnsson, Kap etc..
We are going to be disappointed when he trades for Glendening and Kronwall (Babcock will push hard)
The west could get interesting.
Flames and Jets big game hunting.
We've heard Nashville being in on Duchene.
So can someone explain how the Jets have 25 million in cap space at the deadline, and the Flames have 5.7?
I've heard before at the deadline you can squeeze huge contracts in, even if you have little cap space, based on TD Cap space, I've also heard that isn't the case?
Does traded deadline day cap space exist in our reality?
How much can the Jets pickup compared to the Flames?
I like Jensen, but not at that price for him as a pending UFA.
the plus of having added a Jensen would have meant adding a guy that's a positive player in place of sitting a negative player (Zaitsev or Hainsey) so that's the problem. We are allowing negative players in the lineup play meaningful minutes.

Bowey AND a 2nd... good for Det
I'm not convinced.
I don't think Jensen is all that much of an upgrade on either Hainsey or Zaitsev that warrants trading a 2nd and depth peice (lets say Ozhiganov).
