hatedkid666 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 WHAT? I thought Cole was worth a lot more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRussianRocket. Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Lateral deal. Don't really get why either team would do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desiboynux4lifee******* Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 now they got two goons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D-Money Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Cole > Bortuzzo. But Cole makes 225K more, so maybe this was to make a little more cap space? Blues had less than 200K to play with, so that may be the reason. EDIT: Blues also get a 7th round pick from Pitts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honeydew Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Loading up the goons for the offseason to goon it up for the playoffs! This is going to be one goontastic playoff run for the Penguins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CRAZY_4_NAZZY Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Don't like this deal for either team. Pittsburgh loses grit and toughness since they don't have anyone now in their lineup to answer the bell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOMapleLaughs Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Another righty for lefty deal, but this just looks like both teams couldn't come to acceptable terms with their respective upcoming RFA's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RRypien37 Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Blues get even tougher. Mean while....we get Conacher the giant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canuck Surfer Posted March 6, 2015 Share Posted March 6, 2015 Met Cole in the off season: here in Australia of all places. Decent guy. It was a hockey schindig > tour of Oz including some games between a US side and Cdn side. Then they had a meet and greet at the bar. Happy to talk prospects etc. Said Tarasenko would be MVP some day. But mostly the chat was about what it was like to have moved down here. Where to visit while he was down etc. Good luck to him! Personally I thought Bortuzzo would have a much higher upside? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
