pickrunner18 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 I'm not sure how I feel about the jackets being a buyer. getting rid of a first rounder to basically secure eighth place? I don't see the point, but then again not all first rounders pan out, especially ours. I was so excited for there to be no trade drama dealing with the jackets this year...now I literally can't stop refreshing twitter, reddit, etc. waiting for something to happen. is it wednesday yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just making the playoffs is sometimes the worst thing for a team. You are stuck in this spot where guys don't want to come to a "winner" and you are not a big enough loser to get rewarded in the draft.

KennyFuckingPowers Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Ill give them Gaborik for ours back and Dubinsky. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFuckingPowers Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Seriously though, Dubinsky has been missed. His chemistry with the team, his toughness, his heart. Its missed so much. I can get rid of Gaborik to get that back. We have Nash and we did pretty well without him, replacing Gaborik for this post season with him? Ill do it in a heart beat. And if that means getting back a guy who is clearly missed in the organization like Dubes, Ill do it in a heartbeat. Oh and we get a first rounder. If anyone can make that trade happen, its Sather Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KennyFuckingPowers Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I heard a Martinez + a pick for Hartnell rumour from a good source in LA, interested to see if that goes down now I dont think thatll happen. He means too much to the Flyers. The fans love that guy like they loved Bobby Clarke and Lindros. Its crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

littlebistro Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 I'm happy for Regehr, it sucks that he waived his NTC to come here just to be traded again.. But I'm glad he'll be on a contending team. Hopefully some of these 2nds get us a couple more 1sts.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
littlebistro Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Also, I heard Pominville was asked for his list of 8 teams he won't be traded to.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFuckingPowers Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Remember when you didn't think the Penguins could trade for Iginla? Yeah but that was for cap reasons/lack of trade chips. I even said that they wouldnt trade anyone on their team currently, because the chemistry is too good. And I was right. I didnt think the Flames would take package like that from Pitt for him.

kgry Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Handzus traded to CHI, bring back the mullet! Loved him as a King, but he's definitely at the end. Wonder how effective he'll be for Chi. We need center help. Apparently he's going to be centering the third or fourth line. For a fourth rounder, I like this move. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 i love him, probably one of my favorite players on the team, and he's only 2 points behind Stamkos, and 12 behind Crosby. Crosby had plates put on his jaw, it is not wired shut. the doctor who performed the procedure has done this to players in the minors, and they went back out to play the next day. Not sayin Crosby will do that, his injury was more than just a broken jaw, but loss of teeth and swelling of the tissue, but I would not be surprised if he came back in a couple weeks, right before the playoffs. he's on a liquid, high carb diet, so they're saying he probably wont lose all that much mass, if any, Big Ben of the Steelers had the same procedure in 2006 and didnt miss a practice in training camp that summer. (granted, NFL preseason does not equal to NHL (post)season in terms of phyiscality) but it would not surprise me at all if he came back to practice next week... the kid is insane.

blanchardoswald Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Looks like Dal also gets D prospect Kevin Connauton He's going to be a sturdy shut down D-man, but we're deep at defence. There was no room for him to come into the lineup. Tanev sort of overstepped him to get into the lineup. Our top 4 guys are all locked up long term, so he was definitly on the outside looking in.
