Had no idea you tapped his phone and computer. (frank), you need to keep us in the loop.

It's pretty clear that he could have gotten more 2 months ago when he set that huge ass price tag

Played with Eichel and Erod at BU. Very solid AHLer which will reinforce Rochester this year and perhaps one more year. I would like to see the whole line reunite for a game or two down the stretch to see what chemistry is still around

Looks similar to CJ Smith, and if he is, you could have done worse.

o'regan played with Rodrigues for three years and Eichel for one and if i'm correct, he also played on their line in 14-15

I was about to say the same thing. I'm sure Jack threw a few names out there. I'd be shocked if he was not an influence on this one

2019 first is a tradeable asset too should someone become available that fits his time line. I like it tbh. Mostly cause hes gone

"But Rick Nash got"


This just in, teams don't have to worry about Rick Nash being a professional and teammates hating him.

People were worried Kane wouldn't even get traded. They were worried it would be for a 2nd or 3rd rounder.

Botts got a 1st and add ons.

This thread is exacerbating.

This. And i didnt think he'd be able to get any sort of first rounder. Its a good deal, the only people who dislike it are the ones who thought Kane was GOAT and that he'd bring back adam fox or jordan kyrou as a pending FA.

If the Pens offered two first for him like Homie said, Botts just swung and missed.

Both picks conditional, not a very good return.

Homie also said botts wasn't looking for help 3-5 years from now so we dont know how accurate the source really is.

If its true then yeah he waited too long, he did salvage it though

Wow, consider me underwhelmed.

Dan O'regan? a late 1st?

Today I was hoping to have some interest in this team rekindled.

This organization is a joke.

So glad I have not wasted any time watching them this year.

- hawk33

the last part is understandable...getting overly excited for anything more than what they got is not...a first and a mid-level prospect or a second and an upper-level prospect is where most thought this was headed

2019 is lottery protected

the 4th can become a 3rd if he re-signs

1st rounder is lottery protected, 4th rounder is conditional on him re-signing.


I think thats it?

I'm with you. I was worried he would not even get moved or we get a second and not much more. Nash deal is purely based on his playoff experience, of which Kane has none
