Post-Game Talk: Trade Deadline Day

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Since the Trade Deadline is done and the other thread has reached max, I figured we'd have a "post game" thread on the Trade Deadline to discuss what happened, as well as a poll on how everyone feels post trade deadline.

We did good, a depth trade and a decent signing.

 

[Doshy]

It was extremely boring until I stepped out, then I came home and realized "EVERYTHING IS HAPPENING"

Bob Cole would be proud.

 

[SpeakerForTheDead]

Very happy. No Luongo is a success for me.

 

[ribbons87]

Reimer is going to tear it up now for sure.

i think wasting the 4th on O'Byrne was stupid move. especially when you have a similar 6th or 7th guy sitting in the AHL right now. this move doesnt make us any better than we were yesterday.

 

[Cor]

Good deadline. Picked up a big boy in O'Byrne and saw the East get weaker.

 

[stakesishigh]

Neutral.

Depends on how Nonis does with the players that need to be re-signed.

 

[legendinblue]

Still waiting for the WSH deal.

 

[Schenn]

The Washington deal will probably fall flat on its face.

 

[Longshot]

Where is this Miller to Washington stuff coming from?

I haven't seen a word on Twitter about it and I follow every Buffalo reporter because I'm a Bills fan.

Is there a source of that I can check out?

Creasy and a little birdie called Hockey ********

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

I wanna know what the Washington deal is, or was depending on whether or not it fell through.

 

[Leaf Rocket]

I'm satisfied with minimum movement, don't try to fix something that isn't broken.

Also what's this news about stafford and miller to wsh?

 

[Longshot]

Reading this you would like the Leafs just acquired another Aki Berg:

I think it is just HF'ers speculating.

 

[Kessely Snipes]

I think it was good, we stayed the same, and if anything most teams in the east got weaker.

Lots of speculation over a Capitals-Sabres trade of some significance... lots of names being tossed out there, but 0 confirmation so far.

Ian Mendes ‏@ian_mendes 18s
Ben Bishop said he packed a little heavier on this road trip, knowing that he could potentially get traded today.

At most it will be a 1st + a prospect. GMGM doesn't make big deals.

 

[I Believe]

Got what I expected, so I can't be dissapointed. Signing Macwilliam was a nice touch.

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC 14s
Jay Feaster tells Calgary media his untouchables were Baertschi, Brodie, Glencross and Giordano.

 

[The Podium]

Seems like everyone in the NE got worse over the past couple days except for Montreal and Toronto

Boston lost their #1C to concussion
Ottawa lost their #1G for a currently struggling rookie (Bishop is #1 until Anderson was ready to return)
Buffalo completely sold

Cant be much to complain about under those circumstances. Toronto also recieves 2 top 9 players back from injury, a good PK D and a team of young players who wont lose their chemistry since there was no drastic change.

I think it is just HF'ers speculating.

ah well then that'll be good for us mods
