Sprong to New Jersey, which is like his 4th team this year

Might be trying to go for Mike Sillinger's record:

Pens
Ducks
Caps
Wings
Kraken
Nucks
Devils

Am I missing one?

[nocera]

Do we know the return for Marchand yet?

[shoeshine boy]

How big is that trade call queue????

[MR25]

Do we know the return for Marchand yet?

Speculation is its a 2nd rounder with the chance to become a first in 28 but only someone quoting Buccigross has that and I don't trust Buccj

[nocera]

Let the record show that Marchand commanded the same return as Beauvillier.

[MR25]

Could you imagine the meltdown Pens fans would have if Dubas traded a rental Malkin for a 2nd round pick?

Couldn't have happened to a nicer fan base lol

[mikey]

Yeah, if that's the return...and it went to a division rival...I'd have just kept him. You traded a career Bruin, your captain, all that...and got a 2? From a team in your division, who you play at home in a week...?

Meh, that's a video game trade for me.

[MR25]

2nd leading scorer on Boston, too

Feels like there should be more, but I think it's because he had two stops in Seattle.

I also thought he had a very brief stop in Utah, but he did not.

Shea Weber* to Chicago


*’s contract

Would this make him the 2nd HHOF inductee that was involved in a trade after their induction?

The other inductee?

The Minnesota North Stars selected Lafleur with the final pick in the 1991 Expansion Draft. Lafleur had decided to retire for a second and last time as a player, and he had already agreed to an off-ice job with the Nordiques. The league's bylaws prevented him from accepting a job with a team that did not own his playing rights. The North Stars solved Lafleur's quandary by trading him back to Quebec. In exchange, they received the rights to a former Nordique who had been playing in Switzerland for two years, Alan Haworth. Haworth played just one more year of professional hockey, and never returned to the NHL.

Chris Pronger missed it by a few months, as he was traded to the Coyotes on 6/27/2015 and inducted to the HHOF in November.

The rat going to the panthers is fitting

Return for Marchand is indeed a 2nd rounder in 27, which becomes a 28 1st rounder if the Panthers win two playoff rounds and MArchand plays in 50% of their playoff games. Boston retains half his salary.

Wow. That's bad.

[Gaucho]

Let the record show that Marchand commanded the same return as Beauvillier.

[Kaiser]

That was a really bad loss for the flyers. Even ESPN knew and did not include Philly in the pregame "in the hunt" teams list.

****. I thought Hossa's induction was much later than 2020 so I didn't even bother to look him up.

Sportsnet’s Nick Kypreos reported Friday that Toronto offered Easton Cowan, Fraser Minten and two first-rounders to Carolina in exchange for Rantanen. The Hurricanes chose to accept the Stars’ package around Logan Stankoven, valuing him higher.

But, according to multiple sources, Carolina had another target.

The Hurricanes initially asked for Mitch Marner in return for Rantanen. Because it was for Rantanen, the Maple Leafs had to consider it. They told the winger their desire is to sign him, but they had to ask in this case. As is his right, Marner declined to move, re-iterating his desire to stay.

Neither the Maple Leafs, the Hurricanes, nor Marner’s agent, Darren Ferris, would comment. But that could have been the biggest blockbuster of the week.

Kypreos Is never right so I’m not sure I believe that

[MR25]

Well, if I'm reading it right, Friedman is saying Kypreos was wrong. Kypreos had Minten, Cowen, and 2 firsts. Friedman says the offer was actually centered around Marner.
