Tigs Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Thanks to @oldnews for another set of solid trade negotiations. Always a pleasure to hammer a negotiation out considering we're both cheap bastards. We wish Mark and Jamie all the best in Winnipeg and expect them to bring home a championship to a city so desperately desiring one. On the flip side we very much welcome Colin Wilson and highly touted prospect Casey Mittelstadt to our roster! The picks will also certainly help us a few years down the road which is our current time-frame for even thinking about competing. The Capitals are still willing to take on cap dumps if it comes with some incentive and will continue to listen to any hockey deals people may have in mind. At this point in time however the roster is really starting to shape up the way we hoped it would! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldnews Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Thanks @Tigs - good, fun negotiations - and a good laugh over the truth that we're both cheap bastards lol. Thanks also to @thejazz97 for all the processing. Best of luck to you Tigs - and your Caps - hope those futures turn into key assets for your improving franchise.

oldnews Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 The Jets are expanding our trade winds - As noted before, considering moving a top 4 blueliner - will also consider moving one of our young NHL defenseman - not much room in the present for a high end guy like Ryan Pulock - physical guy with a heavy shot - inquiries for our young D (not named Klefbom) also welcome. And teams in need of a backup - Darcy Kuemper is a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SHOULD my impatience is killing me ... im off for some days ...serioulsy I may be missing something here, but in case it makes you feel better, the Leafs acquired Pickard, yes, but only after he'd cleared waivers irl - so he's an AHL asset - and McElhinney is still their NHL backup. If you'd wanted an active NHL backup, you still needed to acquire McIlhenney - and now you have insurance should he stumble or Pickard take his job (and/or even Anderson's) - you have Pickard to recall as well for 'backup'.

Art Vandelay Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 @thejazz97 Did you know that Jesper Bratt made the Devils opening lineup? Surprised you hadn't signed him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickard had cleared waivers before Toronto acquired him - not that it matters - but.... If they'd claimed him (for "free" on waivers) they'd have had to waive McElhinney to make room for him - instead they traded for him afterwards.

Master Mind Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 ^ Trades inputted. Bishop injured in game 1. Even though it's not serious, it's nice to know I have Lehtonen to fill in. Good chance he gets some playoff games knowing Bishop's track record. Pretty bad when my confidence level with him is about the same as with Mason...
