[Cobiemonster]

Ahahahahahaha

 

[esls79]

Shouldn't they have waited until the deadline was over to announce this?

 

[Johnnydollaz89]

So now he can float around where nobody will notice him lol

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

Maloney said all deals have to be dollar for dollar. Should be interesting to see what Phoenix gives up. Klesla?

I like Klesla. Best player in the deal.

Martin Erat Traded to Coyotes for Chris Brown. ah Chris Brown FINALLY gets paid to beat people up!.

Rihanna may want to postpone any concerts scheduled for the Verizon Center...

So the Erat era in DC ends with 2 goals and 25 assists in 62 games.

 

[higgyfan4]

What's the over/under on how long before he requests a trade from the Yotes?

Oh and WHERE WAS THE PRESS CONFERENCE??????

Caps fans, you will love him. In fact, you guys have two guys well like here now, Chim Chim and Rusty.

Don't look at it that way. Look at it as Filip Forsberg got you Rusty Klesla!

 

[elocomotive]

And don't let the door... well, you know the rest.

 

[hokiehi21]

lol i dont know much about Rusty so i'll take your word for it. Glad we got something back for Erat

Apparently this Chris Brown fella scored 29 goals in the AHL last seaon so he must not be too bad either

. Every Cap fan knew how Erat for Forsberg was gonna end up.

Yeah, here's what I know about Chris Brown(which is almost nothing)...
-I'll bet he can score 2 goals in 60+ NHL games
-I'll be he won't charge $4.5 million to do it

Dustin Penner for Martin Erat a nice upgrade. Is Klesla or Brown are any good... it's gravy.

Yeah, that was truly a "WTF?!?!?" moment.

Until Forsberg pans out, I don't care. This is the NHL, not NFL, first rounders are just as likely to be Boyd Gordon, Jakuo Cutta, Sasha Pokulok or Brian Sutherby as Nick Backstrom, Karl Alzner or John Carlson.

This frees up cap space next season. Now anesty 21, and we can make a lot of moves this offseason including possibly keeping Grabo and Penner.

He's good, steady and won't make a lot of mistakes with the puck. Not real fast, but compliments whoever they put him with well. Good team guy too.

Good calls. I keep forgetting about amnesty.

I just hope Ted is willing to pay out 21's contract. Great guy, but not a 4.5mil per year player at all.
