RUMOR: Gagne Trade

[CatScrap]

We'll give you Regier, Quinn, Sekera, and a dozen wings.

His Wikipedia page said he was traded to Toronto for Finger and Grabovski, but was removed shortly after.

I either hope you are joking or someone was just messing with wiki

pretty sure it was just some whacked HFBoard, overly hopeful Leafs fan. their usual desperation i'm sure.

 

[PhillyPhaithful48]

at least make it sound doable. The two things we dont need right now, a Dman and a center.

They said it was someone with the initials H.B.K.

Heebok?

and the plot thickens....

shawn michaels?

 

[PhillyPhaithful48]

^ Nice!

 

[scottflyers88]

that trade does not even make sense. those 2 combined make more than gagne.

which also doesn't make sense.

Well, I know he won't be coming to Calgary. Simon Gagne hasn't failed here previously.

So wait, if you have to fail in Calgary before you can play in Calgary, how do you get anyone in Calgary? Eventually they have to retire, don't they? Or do you just have people who failed in Calgary in a past life reincarnate into new Calgary players?

Come to think of it, that sounds suspiciously like how the Flyers handle goaltending...

As long as we dump at least 4 million off next year's cap, I wouldn't be against Gagne being traded. He's gone after next season anyway, so get something while you can now and pray the young guys step up offensively.

 

[DaBoltsNIsles]

My offer is Trent Hunter & Bruno Gervais

 

[pixburgher66]

Sources say he's been asked to waive his NTC, but no trade pending on it. interesting.

 

[PhillyPhaithful48]

Don't know if this is good or bad. Even if we get Crosby and Ovechkin in return, it will be sad to see gags go

 

[pixburgher66]

the question is...salary dump or goalie trade?

 

[awaz]

1st off stop it with all the goalie to philly moves.. its not going to happen.. if gagne gets traded it will be for a younger, cheaper winger, and draft picks or prospects.. the flyers already have leighton, boosh, backlund, and bobrovsky on NHL/AHL contracts.. they aren't getting another one

and i will be very sad if gagne goes, regardless of who comes back
