What happened to Toskala?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

He's been having groin issues...

 

[UberBeaver]

And so is Crosby....coincidence? Hmmmm? Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

no, of course not

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

< 2 hours and counting...

worst trade deadline day so far?

 

[UberBeaver]

Meh. It's always anti-climatic. I think most of the news happens right after 3 anyway.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

but TSN makes it out to be THE BIGGEST DAY IN HOCKEY!! They have fancy graphics and like 8 colour commentators talking about nothing...

 

[boosterjuice]

I love the hype. Great moves by Calgary today (that's difficult for an Oiler fan to say).

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Mark Recchi to Boston... that team scares me.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Bill Guerin to Pittsburgh, interesting... No news yet on who NY is getting, maybe Crosby, eh Beav?

 

[BoMac]

A conditional draft pick.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

ok, maybe not...

Conditional Pick (3rd Rd at best)? I would have thought they could get more than that...

 

[UberBeaver]

Bill Guerin to Pittsburgh, interesting... No news yet on who NY is getting, maybe Crosby, eh Beav?

Crosby+Malkin+1st Round pick, I would assume. This is BILL GUERIN we're talking about.

 

[UberBeaver]

Crosby+Malkin+1st Round pick, I would assume. This is BILL GUERIN we're talking about.

Or: The draft pick that Pittsburgh gives up will start as a fifth-round pick. If Pittsburgh makes the playoffs, it increases to a fourth-rounder. If they get to the second round, it becomes to a third round pick.

Now I finally have a chance to get drafted by the Isle's!!!

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

I know Guerin is over the hill but I thought he would have gotten you guys more than that...

Looks like you just got SNOW'D!

 

[UberBeaver]

Well, at least Garth held out for a "conditional" pick. Milbury would have traded him for, like...I dunno. Something worse than that...like a ... a real bad ..... guy. Wow. What a waste.

or Peguins Season Tickets and a pack of peanuts?

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

<30 Mins

 

[BoMac]

Nik Antropov to the NY Rangers.

 

[UberBeaver]

I guess Boston and/or San Joe don't want to give up their 6th round picks, cause I see Streit is still an Islander. Interesting...I wonder if we can go ahead name Tavares and/or Hedman captain now?

 

[UberBeaver]

Nik Antropov to the NY Rangers.

I hope he accidentally puts his hockey stick through Avery's head on the way in.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

 

[BoMac]

Phoenix traded defenseman Derek Morris to the Rangers.

Nothing yet from the Canadiens.

 

[UberBeaver]

Rangers got rid of Dawes and Prucha? Is Morris that good? I liked Dawes, I think he's a great guy to have.

Antropov kinda sucks. I don't think he brings much to the table. He's fast, but inconsistent and sloppy.

he's not even that fast...

 

[UberBeaver]

Oh, I thought he was fast. I didn't realize how tall he was.

 

[Thora]

Nothing from the Canucks, as expected.

 

[elevated_u2_fan]

Dominic Moore to Buffalo for another 2nd round draft pick...

 

[BoMac]

Burke is really stockpiling those picks. The Leafs better not make the playoffs if they want a high first round pick.

 

[MrPryck2U]

Ahh, the Isles' fire sale continues. Guerin gets exiled to Pittsburgh. Another shitty year for the boys in orange and blue.
