Trade Day - All trade info here

[Kaibur]

So who will replace these guys?

Johnson, Miele, and Brown

 

[Sciamachy]

Also to note with Lambo being traded, the conditional pick that Toronto gets from us will be a 4th instead of a 3rd.

 

[Plub]

I don't really care who replaces them. We got a 3rd and a 7th for nothing, basically.

 

[Naych_PHX]

Boedker's most recent line mates are gone.

 

[Mosby]

Sarah McLellan confirms that GMDM is done for the day.

 

[_Del_]

Bring up Brown and Johnson and let's get on with our mediocrity again...

 

[zz]

Operation tank is ON!

If the Flyers make the playoffs somehow I can still see that Yandle trade being consummated at the draft. If they get a top 5-7 pick, forget it.

 

[SniperHF]

Boedker's most recent line mates are gone.

Meh, another guy who's production has dropped a bit recently.


All these roster shake ups I think at worst keep the team about where they are. Unless it just blows up chemistry, but none of these guys are core type guys so I doubt that.

 

[Mosby]

The Yotes had $8 million in cap space invested in today's castoffs (including Sullivan's bonuses). We need to spend those dollars better the second time around.

This. GMDM has finally said **** it, we'll take door number one.

 

[Kaibur]

Sarah McLellan confirms that GMDM is done for the day.

Most interesting part is that our defense remains crowded, but we traded three NHL forwards for 1 AHL forward.

I sure hope this helps us land Monahan.

Not quite. That would have involved moving Klesla, Morris, Yandle. He just cashed in the irrelevant chips and is waiting until next year is more clear to make a hockey trade.

He's waiting for the draft. Move players for sure picks.

 

[WJF]

Forward lines for tomorrow's game, anyone?

 

[mouser]

Weird situation been developing in Washington for an hour. Lots of reports they've made a notable trade, but no one has the details yet. Popular guess is it involves Stafford from Buffalo.

 

[KG]

Glad Sullivan is gone. I was hoping to eat crow on him... but what can you do?

Lombardi gone.. hmm, I guess we're moving Gordon back to the 3rd line.

I liked Torres, real energy guy with a good shot, but not overly disappointing to see him go.

I was hoping for a bit more of a splash, but as you fine fellows pointed out, the draft seems more likely a venue for that.

 

[Sciamachy]

Forward lines for tomorrow's game, anyone?

Well this is what we're left with up front:

Doan - Hanzal - Vrbata
Boedker - Vermette - Korpikoski
Klinkhammer - Gordon - Moss
????? - Chipchura - Bissonnette

See if anyone gets called up today, or maybe MacMillan fills in the last spot for now. Or Z comes back and we role 7 D.

 

[hbk]

I think Klinkhammer stole Torres spot to be honest.

 

[rt]

Hopefully that's enough to improve our draft position.

Torres is an effective player. Klinkhammer stole his job. He's younger and cheaper. Bissonnette and Chipchura taking big steps forward makes it even easier to cut ties.

Lombardi and Sullivan were just failed experiments. We got them for nothing, at bargain basement prices, and hoped they could be a part of the solution they were not. I have no ill will and I wish them both the best of luck, but its a good riddance.

 

[KG]

Is Klinkhammer really that good?

 

[TeamTourigny]

the day after the team celebrates Sullivan's 1000 game they ship him.

 

[hbk]

Is Klinkhammer really that good?

He's proven himself to be a legitimate 3rd/4th liner. He'll get a one way offer from Maloney.

 

[RABBIT]

Is Klinkhammer really that good?

I wouldn't say it's about skill level, he's cheap, he's signed, and he's really done well for the Coyotes.

McMillan is a very versatile player, can play both wings, center. Fast skater and a good forechecker, shows great effort and is solid defensively, can play on the PK. He has potential to be a pretty good checking line center, but he hasn't had many chances with the Ducks recently due to not fitting into the lineup. I think it was a good trade for both teams.
