lol probably, I have Flyers fan friends who seem to forget that 56 point season, don't blame them it was one of the worst of all time yet netted them Patrick Sharp...who they traded for magic beans

I guess your "sources" om Murray was off a tad

Hey, Murray being even mentioned in a post is an improvement.

I bet the next trade is made by Shero too!!! Any takers?

Ek, you made the adjustment with Murray going to pittsburgh. You need to make another edit - Pittsburgh AIN'T in it for Iginla.

I hear some serious rumblings about a big trade to happen between 2 teams in NHL. I don't mean to be cryptic but I had a busy night and barely any sleep. I will update this later...bvut you heard it here first!

Iggy..

Wrong again.

Douglas Murray to Pittsburgh for a couple of draft picks. Two 2nds or a 2nd and 3rd. Waiting for the confirmation from the big boys


Who's getting traded for Ribeiro now? Iginla?
- t_leafs21

Grabovski or Liles + a pick or low prospect.

No... I say Bortuzzo to a team that's going to move defense.

@Real_ESPNLeBrun: Sharks just made it official in a news release: they get 2013 and 2013 second-round picks from Pittsburgh in exchange for Douglas Murray


Everyone is giving credit to Shero but I think Wilson made out like a bandit on this one.

This is perfect....Boston cannot just sit on their hands now....come on Chiarelli, your move!!!

Agreed, Murray can't skate!

Good 3rd pairing guy, but a pretty hefty return.

what about JVR year??

I was only 11. I had friends, hockey, etc, and no DVR...

ive been watching hockey my entire life, dont get me wrong i've been an avid fan since i was born, really, but really didnt start like hardocre cheering for them until i was 13.

nah low 2nd rounders in 55-60 range.

Still, a lot to give for a 3rd pairing UFA d-man that can't skate....

If Pittsburgh doesn't resign him, its only a second rounder. Not that hefty.

Ummm no
i got my first Flyer jersey when i was 2. I've been a Flyer fan my entire life, dont be questioning me on that thank you very much. Im not a bandwagon jumper.
Oilers have been my 2nd favorite team my entire life as well... thats never changed. Even before Hall, Eberle, RNH all those guys.

win the cup and these are good trades

dont win the cup and they are terrible deals

Second 2nd-round pick is conditional.

Actually this might be the year where it is better to wait until the deadline. Pittsburg is probably finished dealing. A few more deals involving the top teams, including Iginla and you might start to see panic selling.

Strange that Dallas was the first seller into the market even though they are still sitting in a playoff position.

How can the Pens keep adding more $$ to their roster...They have to be close to the cap are they not?
- Buzzo

Because they don't have useless baggage like a certain Chris Pronger eating up cap space?

Still, a lot to give for a 3rd pairing UFA d-man that can't skate....
- The-O-G

Lets be honest, even if it is a deep draft, Pens wont be missing those picks.
I thought 2nd, 3rd was an overpayment for Grossmann at the time, i thought he was slow and only good for hitting, and he's been awesome for us since we've acquired him.

win the cup and these are good trades

dont win the cup and they are terrible deals
- flashfire

So if they dont win the cup and finish 29th, or make the ECF and finish like 26th-28th, its still a bad trade?

ya likely 1 2nd rounder

Again it's 1 2nd unless Murray resigns and Shero is addressing needs for right now while every other GM is thinking about it. I like having a GM that is in 1st place with a 12 game winning streak but still looking to get better.
