tOfficial 2017 trade deadline thread - or "someone shackle Benning for God's sake 2017"

What?!

The Kings loaded up with the Big Ben deal.

Last time I looked, you need to score in this league to win games. The only goal LA scored last night was a gift from the war room (i.e. it shouldn't have counted).

Edit: That said, if the Kings decide to go on a run and manage to pass the Oil and knock them out, I'm all for it.

I heard a rumor (rumour) the Habs were trying to get all one syllable named players. Starting to think it might be true.

Brian Lawton @brianlawton9
Hearing it is true but waiting for confirmation that @Avalanche are paying 50% of the salary for Iginla.

Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun
Avs will be getting a conditional fourth-round pick in return for Iginla

I really don't think there was much demand for Iggy, to be honest.

If teams knew the cost was only a 4th rounder, I bet that changes the picture.


Iggy for any existing roster player save Prout... nah
Iggy for an asset or two in the future... fuck yes.

I'm just glad he didn't wind up in Edmonton, that would have been a tough pill to swallow.

Only a 4th AND only half of his salary.

What makes you think other teams didn't offer less and this was the best Sakic could do?

Keep in mind that NTC gives Iginla all the power. All we know he was interested in 2 or 3 teams.

Yeah, all I can say is that Joe Sakic was a hell of a better player than GM.

Might be worth reminding everybody that Iginla has 8 goals and 18 points this season and is 40 years old. Dustin Brown is outscoring him by 10 pts lol.

I don't think Lombardi knows how to play chess - He acquires a Bishop but sacrifices a King.

Somebody should shackle Bergevin...

Canadiens Montréal @CanadiensMTL
