Eklund: IGINLA TO THE PENGUINS OFFICIAL
- Eklund

Way to stay on top of it Ek.

you should be happy, the rebuild finally starts 2-3 years later then it should have

Yup

Not a thrilling return still but I think it's probably the best they could have done under circumstances. The Boston Russian prospect might have had a bit more upside but the unconditional 1st thing was idiotic. Might have waited a week to drive up the bids but that could have also easily backfired.

Now we just wait for the rest of the blowup. JBo is probably next.

He got absolute crap for Iginla.. other than the 1st obviously.

It was pretty much Iginla for a 1st... what you expected?

which is really a borderline 2nd round pick considering the pens will finish 2nd or 3rd overall in the league

So not the Bruins as your previous E5 suggested?

(frank) the hawks.

to be fair this literally caught EVERYBODY off guard. Elliotte Friedman actually tweeted Holy Shit

they should get a first for jbo if doug murray got two second rounders.

Disagree but hey, I'm not Feaster

I am pretty sure if we check in after 12 PM we will find out in fact it is Iggy to the Kings.

On a personal level oh my God Iggy and Crosby together will be so (frank)ing awesome. wouldn't have been nearly as exciting with Boston

I'M IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOTION RIGHT NOW
- S Kaspar Rollins

Go re-read the epic thread.


Always a good laugh to take your mind off of it.

I HATE MY LIFE
- FLflames34

I hate your life too

i cant believe this guy has the stones to use the words "knew" and "told ya" in his post after the complete debacle that just happened.

u read tsn just like we do.

i dont actually care, but to pretend its anything else, and actually try and pull inside knowledge after its crystal clear he has absolutely none, is pretty weak

I HATE MY LIFE

This reminds me of the Hodgson-Kassian deal except it's not us getting (frank)ed over this time.

- S Kaspar Rollins

pure rental for pittsburgh though, all this is really with cap issues moving forward with players to resign, safe to say they are all in this year

which is really a borderline 2nd round pick considering the pens will finish 2nd or 3rd overall in the league
- Sheppy99

what did you guys get for Sundin again? 17 games of Iggy

I'M IN A GLASS CASE OF EMOTION RIGHT NOW
- S Kaspar Rollins

I broke out...you don't want to know what I did with the broken glass..
The only teams I can not absolutely not cheer for, the Penguins and the Wings.
And the return was worse than Boston...much worse...Feaster is dead to me.

I'm glad Stan Bowman, John McDonough and the rest of the soup sandwiches that currently inhabit the Blackhawks front office stayed away from this one. /Sarcasm

I'm waiting for them to tell us about how awesome the Hawks' prospects will be in 5 years and how it would be detrimental to the 2018 Blackhawks for them to make this deal.
- KickSave1980

It sounds like Iginla told Feaster that it has to be Pittsburgh so there's nothing Chicago could have done anyway. Not sure why Feaster felt the need to let Shero in on that tip.

On a personal level oh my God Iggy and Crosby together will be so (frank)ing awesome. wouldn't have been nearly as exciting with Boston
- S Kaspar Rollins

Who knows for sure if they will play together... or stay together.

They had one goal together in the olympics... I don't think there is some incredible instant chemistry there.

That being said.... Pens should probably be the 1:1 favorite to win the cup now... (frank) I hate them

Sooooooo.
Dupuis - Crosby - Kunitz
Iginla - Malkin - Neal
Morrow - Sutter - Cookie
??
What do you guys think the lines will be?

Iggy won't re-sign with Pitts there is a pretty good chance he comes back

1st and two NCAA guys they like for 17 games of Iggy

Corey Pronman ‏@coreypronman 11m
Seen a lot of Hanowski recently. Good hockey sense, average skill, great shot, skating is an issue. Ok 2L potential. Good PP guy.

Corey Pronman ‏@coreypronman 5m
Agostino is a hard working forward, has good skill, tough, protects puck well but he's small. Average speed. Projects as a 3L forward.

Enjoy CGY!

wait...could this be a 3 team deal? Stay tuned MTC
