Grabner 9 assist in 82 or so games, yep he's a keeper, did nothing after the trade to the fast skating Devils.

Yea bunch of third and fourth liners. We got worse this year, but the picks will make the future even better.

After this deal Eichel needs to grow up and act like a captain, this is 100% his team now

Not sure how we won the deal...

We added on overall cap space in the deal. Got a 30 year old center who is a solid 3rd line center but you better hope Casey is as good as you think he is and FAST. Berglund is a 25-35 MAX point guy at this stage of his career and from the looks of his plus minus I doubt he's great defensively? Sobotka who knows... I guess he could be again a 3rd line LW or on this crappy team 2nd line... Thompson is what? Their 3rd or 4th best prospect? Doesn't seem like he's good enough to be a top six guy. We've got enough potential bottom six guys... Berglund for four more years.... He'll be a slow 34 year old by time he's done here... Not thrilled.

Nothing like getting more old geezers on the team and people want to trade for Max Pacioretty

Brilliant

This feels like we had to trade him and we had our hands tied made no sense you could have traded him to the Islanders for (frank)ing better prospects I guarantee it

I'm a little heated right now

We don’t pay the bonus, we are out of that contract and we get 2 top picks/strong prospect. Please stop.

Bye bye Joan Larrson

How many goals did he have?

He is fast and scores. More than can be said about any of the 3 players we acquired.

Who the (frank) cares. We got a ton for pieces of ROR. We can use those to improve our team. Deal's done...moving on.

How do you know.

Put the shoe on the other foot, GM Gerbe.

You're the GM of the Islanders, are YOU trading Bellows and/or Beaulliver (two of your best young players/prospects) and whatever else for ROR?

I didn't think so.

How many goals did he have?

He us fast and scores. More than can be said about any of the 3 players we acquired.
- Mentalorgasm5

He stinks

Berglund only topped 17 goals once in the last 6 years and only played more than 57 games 3 times in 6 years.

Sobotka is trash and we all know it. He topped 10 goals for the first time in his career last year and even jumped to Russia for 3 years.

They are both bottom 6 at best making a combined what... 8ishM. Awesome.
- JVince11

So how did we get away from the O’Reilky contract? We traded$8M for $8M.

That only lasted a few minutes...

Never ceases to amaze

Don't trade ROR and people call for Botterill's head, trade him and they still do it.

He stinks
- SABRES 89

He had more points than sbokta(sp) and berglund. And he didnt cost ROR.

Strong Prospect? I don't think you've seen Thompson play he has potential to be good but his skating sucks ass

how we didn't any of the top 3 prospects blows my mind

O’Reilly is so good we picked first overall last year. We got out of his bonus laden contract. We added two premium draft picks. We can make other moves to get the wingers. Relax

How do you know.

If it's to save my season and my fans to believe in me I guarantee you we would have gotten bellows for ROR

Now I have no idea who were going to trade for Jacks winger blows my mind
