2021 NHL Trade Deadline

[thedddd]

what the fuck?

Highmore 0 goals, 2 assists
Gaudette 4 goals 3 assists

saves 200k though, so yay?


a) why sell gaudette? probably afraid of his arbitration rights in the summer.
b) why highmore instead of a draft pick. highmore is 25 years old, and has shown nothing so far. At least gaudette has cracked the lineup.

Seriously traded him for AHL Roster filler.

thread - how an expansion pick in 1967 led to Jeff Carter in Pittsburgh.

Sending Typhoid Mary to infect the Hawks - Benning playing some 5D chess here.

i didn't want to even suggest he was being banished for being potentially patient zero
but this is not a hockey deal

So who did he reject? Edmonton?

So he knew where he wanted to go and screwed Buffalo into a shitty return, yeah that sounds like Taylor Hall.

No confirmation on this, but I read this morning that his wife may have tweeted something out recently about the lockdowns being too restrictive. Not saying that was the catalyst for him being moved, but the trade is a little smelly for the Canucks.

also, there goes jimbo's excuse that he didn't do any deals as he didn't want to disrupt the players and their families during this difficult time.

@puckhead at least Janmark would have made sense.

I heard Rumors since they weren't close and the talks fell off but that wasn't to be. He is a king for a few years.

My favourite is intentionally playing short a player or two in order to be cap compliant. Isn't that violating the spirit of the cap?
