“Pavel Buchnevich is 26 and outproduced Mathew Barzal, William Nylander, and Matt Tkachuk and he gets traded for Sammy Blais.

Gorton does NOT make this deal.”

Imagine trading Reinhart for a second round pick. It’s essentially what Drury just did

Now hearing that a deal to send defenseman Oliver Ekman-Larsson and Conor Garland to the Vancouver Canucks is also in the works. Nothing done yet. Obviously a big deal.

Oliver Ekman-Larsson and C. Garland for 9th overall, J. Beagle, A. Roussel, L. Eriksson

They have 7 2nds in the next 2 drafts

Maybe they want to start stocking up on 2023 2nds

Sam is a RFA though, so whatever team gets him will be able to negotiate his contract with him, unless he is hard pressed to go to UFA which I can't blame either
- Stripes77


Good points stripes.

Wonder if risto extends soon?

I think sam definitely goes with a sign and trade. Or something on a handshake deal?

Sam's next contract could actually hurt his value.
Might be looking at 7 for 50 million.
Maybe cuts down on the available teams, do to his pending salary increase.

Fewer suitors? Vs. Risto and a 1 year...

Credit to @Gambo987 who was first to report on OEL/Garland, but Beagle, Eriksson, Roussel and 9th overall pick are involved.

Is AZ trying to lose the entire ‘fan base’ so they can move to Quebec City or what?

This is a bad trade
- Stripes77
Some GMs just dont get it.

I have to feel they would have been wanting Rino for 9 if that report with the yotes is right.

Can you imagine if we protected Borgen and then Seattle flipped Risto for the haul we got today? The arena would be in flames by now.

Robert, you remind me of Drury, Fletcher, and Benning as a GM. No idea what you are doing. F minuses across the board.

They seem to be a fire sale.

I would try to move them Okposo or skinner. They are taking bad contracts left and right
