Pretty stunning. Did not expect this. But the possibilities of moves now are huge.

They have an extra 3rd and 4th already next year from the Vesey and Namestiknov trades so giving up a 2nd isn’t too big of a blow.

No matter what, they said they aren’t going into the season with 3 goalies. So this really doesn’t affect the Henrik decision much.

If they buy him out. Another 3 million in space.

If he retires? Dream scenario.

This opens up the possibility of keeping Fast, which would be nice. Also I think means we will most likely be seeing Miller on the roster.

I heard NYR and LA are about to announce a huge deal. They didn't want to distract from Tampa-Dallas so it's on hold. Georgiev and Anderson are involved. Doughty the key piece going to NYR. But the wild speculation is a pick swap on the table. Maybe LA gets Lafreniere and NYR solves their woes at center with Byfield. All over the late night shows in LA tonight.

Yep, LA gets the 22nd pick and retains 50% of Doughty's contract.

Whenever there is a trade with little to no return I always think of this:


Kris Draper laughs about it now, but there was something surreal about his involvement in a transaction dated June 30, 1993, when the original Winnipeg Jets traded him to the Detroit Red Wings -- for $1.

Guy was a great Ranger and had some incredible playoff series against Washington/OV.

Would have thought he stayed around this year as a mentor, but it helps the team with cap space.

When MLB player Jose Uribe Gonzales was traded to the SF Giants, he changed his name to Jose Uribe because, he said, "They're are too many Gonzaleses in baseball." He was thereafter referred to by one of his coaches as the "player to be named later."

Those cross checks to Cindy’s head in the playoffs were hockey porn.

Now Lundqvist needs to retire or give him away and throw in a bag of pucks.

Shame it had to end like this, genius move though.
The old guard of Staal, Mac and G is gone now.

Agreed. It has forever endeared him to me. For as great a player as Crosby has been, he’s kinda wrecked it with his whining, preferential treatment and dirty play, the latter being some of the sneakiest I’ve ever seen. He earned those licks. Fare the well, Staaly.

I think we have to give credit to Tortorella for how our guys played, he really got the best out of everyone, even if they hated him.
