Stars send Eaves to Ducks for second round pick - Article - TSN

He's not a dirty POS though. Bad trade by Murray.

If ANA advance to Conf Final and Eaves plays in 50% or more of games in first two rds, selection becomes ANA 1st-rd pick in 2017 NHL Draft.

All that means is Bob Murray can't piss away his first rounder for a sack of magic beans anymore.


/still time to deal Vatanen for Ott though

 

[jstewismybastardson]

still time to deal Vatanen for Burrows plus mumps to be named later though

yes!

Jurco to the hawks for a 3rd

Canucks mumps were the dominoes lol

Mumps?!? What mumps?

Granted, I don't see a lot of Wings games, but I'm surprised the Wings couldn't get more for Jurco than a 3rd round pick.

Really? He has 0 points this year lol.

Yeah, I looked that up last night after I posted. 16 games played for the Wings this year, maybe a change of scenery will help

Seems like there's plenty of Dmen available, and I really think the Pens make another move. Although that certainly makes for a crowded blue line come the playoffs:
Letang-Dumolin
Schultz-Cole
Maatta-Daley
Hainsey-++?

I'm pretty okay if Daley doesn't play much more though, even post injury. He was so great in the stretch run last year, got him and he heated right up. This season? Mediocre is a compliment.

Want Lovejoy back? How about Kyle Quincy...how about both of them???

Lovejoy wasn't bad for us last year but, no.

Been some interesting quotes from GMJR and Fleury lately. Writing is on the wall; he's done in Pittsburgh, at least as a starter. Sounds like GMJR is willing to trade him, if Fleury wants to, but no firm offers have come along. I'm assuming there's a gentlemen's agreement that Fleury will waive his NMC before the Vegas expansion draft.

Calgary? Fleury + Fehr for Elliot / Johnson + D?

Well, if the D is Wideman, ok. Otherwise, I'd rather not bring Fleury on board, Flames have some good goalie prospects in the system.

Seems a little strange with Quick back and playing, but hey, what do I know?

So he waived his NTC to go to LA. Does his NTC go back into effect now that he is in LA? Or does that part of his contract no longer exist because he waived it once?

Because, you know, expansion draft.

Gotta feel sorry for Budaj, he gave the Kings some fine goaltending this season (30 wins) and he gets sent packing.

This trade makes no sense to me from LA's point of view. You have Quick come back and look good along with what Budaj has done this year, why get another Goalie?

Two points from talking to my Dad and my Brother:

1) Quick does have a history of muscle spasms in the playoffs

2) Maybe another deal in Quick somewhere?????????

I don't think LA is done though
