What is sad is he has more goals than Sheary.

I thought Pittsburgh would take him back for that 3rd rounder.

DAMMIT, BOTTS!

“There was no trades to be made”

Marleau is a nice, experienced 560 goal scoring vet with tons of respect, who's played in a gazillion playoff games.

Something our team is lacking in.

I'll pass, we don't need that. We can do better.

Expectation is Chris Kreider will extend with the New York Rangers.

The Penguins traded what turned out to be a 3rd rounder and a prospect for a 39 year-old Bill Guerin in 2009. They won the cup that year.

Botterill will sell to buy, i've said that before. Stock pile a few picks to move later.

Yep got to keep that solid streak of picking terribly with the 7-9th pick in the draft going. No need to make a hockey trade now...

I agree. I didn't say it was for us.

But for a team hoping for another cup run? Absolutely.

GMJR doesn't care about picks, he cares about now.

Krieder extension... One less player available in the free agent market...

Hoffman is probably going to command 8-9 million which I'm sure we won't pay... A hockey trade would be really nice right about now....

And only making $700k.

Never said he won't make a trade now, but teams like picks and he can build in the offseason also. People flipped out with what Murray did , now they want moves just to make moves.

DelNo just dropped off the brown paper bag order to the KBC. Just in the nick of time. Heavy huffing in the Botterill office going on.

No I want moves that makes sense like acquiring a top six forward

we stink, botts is slow, ownership is junk, etc

Well we need a 2C and 2RW. Don't think those players going to be available on Deadline day, but ya never know.

He brought in Frolik. Were you expecting more?

I found out last night that he's called the Blues about Tarasenko, he also called about Cirelli and Henrique. Doubt Tampa moves Cirelli.

One was just traded for....

tbth, I'm the biggest Botts hater there is but I'm not making any trades today unless it's a blockbuster involving Risto for top 6 fwd.

No thanks on Henrique old with a huge cap hit

No reason to trade for a winger unless you get a 2nd line center.

I don’t get the hype around Krieder ...... I hope the rangers overpay him and look dumb

One was just traded for....
- bluengold12

If you're talking about Trocheck, he's a 3C on any team resembling a playoff one.

4 points last night and he's not that old.
