so Burrows nets essentially a 2nd rounder (2016)... and some of the people on here thought i was over pricing Nux players....



i expect a full mea culpa from all the haters over the past two years who ridiculed anyone who proposed Burrows would net more than the bag of pucks or similar return they were talking about instead of something like what we saw here today.

I didn't think we could get a 5th rounder for Burrows. I am shocked. Ottawa's GM should be fired immediately. This is a horrific trade for them.

Now we just need to trade Hansen.

Rumor : Rochester Amereks to Utica? Lease runs out for Roch

Now we just need to trade Hansen.

Soon

cautiously stoked.

A bit of context that likely will get overblown.....

Pastnak in draft season in Allsvenskan 8 g 25 pt in 36 games.
Forsberg in draft seasin in Allsvenskan 8 g 17 pt in 43 games
in draft +1 season in Allsvenskan 15 g 33 pts in 38 games

Dahlen in draft season in Allsvenskan 15g 29 pts in 51 games


Kid looks like a legit prospect for sure.

Edit. Sorry I messed up the years I think.

They only brought in Dahlen to take the pressure off Subban.

I just read in the post that Brian Hamilton got the mumps (Canucks Trainer). That sucks. I actually knew Brian as a kid, our dad's were friends. Hope he gets better soon!

Dahlen is basically a 3rd...but we'll give you over-valuers the 2nd on this one...
- LordHumungous

Dahlen was picked in the 2nd round last draft. I think he was 42nd.

Will a move west for the comets mean that JV can drink in his familiar haunts.

go to 33:25 minute mark to hear about ottawa scout talking about dahlen.

gotta take it with a grain of salt considering it's the scout of the team that drafted him but it's nice to have this warm fuzzy feeling before we label him a bust.

I know he likes to Drink but does he have familiar haunts in Alaska?

And they sign him for 2 years at $5MM? wtf is going on in Ottawa

Well just this morning I was saying get what you can for Burr, resign him next year. Looks like JB told him before making the deal "You won't be resigned here" and thank god considering that contract

Good deal for the nucks I didn't originally want it but given the market I'd like to see what we can get for Hansen.

Probably would immediately after going there. Nothing to do there but drink.

Okay Jim, Edler for Gabriel Landeskog. Git 'er done.
