The Trade Deadline Thread

[Clif]

The team that made the best moves to this point IMHO is Colorado.

Yeah they did great. Will be surprised to see a WCF that’s not VGK and COL.

Moneypuck has Vegas playoff odds at 59% today.

Eklund at Hockeybuzz (I know…) is talking about Ullmark to Kings…

According to Hockey Rumors, Ullmark blocked a deal this week, using his no movement clause.

The horse is dead, rotting and mushrooms are growing throughout its corpse. We get it. There is the I Hate Blake contingency here that judges every move through “Blake Sucks Bro” glasses. It gets old all the whining. The Kings are fun this year, enjoy it.

That's not it at all but thanks for playing.

Has any player gone from winning the Vezina to the backup from one season to the next?

Toffoli has played for 6 teams in 4 years. I guess he was born to play for everyone.

He really has become a rental type player. You'd think that he'd stick around somewhere but just very odd that he doesn't.

The reason stated is that it was because of ”geography”, so might very well have been Kings that had a deal in place. Or Edmonton…

Funny that Ryan Smyth demanded a trade out of LA for the same reason, apparently.

Dumba to Tampa Bay

Well that about takes all the pieces off the board.

Vegas will make some big trade here right at the deadline.

Before Moverare got into some games I was thinking the Kings should pick up another left shot D. I’m now fine with Clarke and Moverare being 7 & 8 dmen going into Round 1.

Agree. I said after the Devs game that he looked underwhelming compared to his 22-23 stint. Since then he's really passed the eye test. He's held his own and he has not been sheltered at all.

His production for salary is outstanding. He's defensively responsible from being brought up in the Sutter system. I honestly have no idea why teams aren't holding onto Toffoli.

Vegas trades for Tomas Hertl.

Freaking Vegas gets Hertl

You nailed it.

 

[Statue4Deano]

Vegas really is going all in. Hertl has an 8.1M cap hit until 29-30.

 

[Statue4Deano]

Picking up Hertl means Vegas cannot activate Stone until the Playoffs. It sure would be funny if they don’t make it.

can only hope to laugh
