I hope not as that's just bad business. I don't get it, why not let teams talk to Trouba and get a deal done? Instead we get this crap deal instead? Is Chevy slipping? Or is there more to the story? On my mind as well..Trouba as a rental hurt us big time.And I still don’t get the hurry, given the return now was garbage anyway. Why not qualify him - at only a few mill more than the unsigned Pionk btw - and deal with this all at the deadline when team’s are desperate? Couldn’t get a below avg defender and low 1st rounder then? Pffft. Whomever we take at 20 likely doesn’t make a big impact for several years. By that time we’ll be a lottery team at this rate.

What would we get at the trade deadline? A first and a prospect. So slightly less then what we got here. It is what it is. NYR got a rental for a year.

Sits out. Did it before and why would a team want to deal with KO. The other GMs aren't dumb. They know KO gets his way.

On the radio they said he wanted to go to the states because he believes his brand / stardom would be much higher down south rather then up in Canada. The guy is a good player but I don't think he's Wheaties box type caliber IMO....
MrFreakzilla Posted June 18, 2019 Report Posted June 18, 2019 Other than getting Stastny as a rental, what was the last good move Chevy made? I can think of many bad ones but a good one is tougher to think of.

MrFreakzilla Posted June 19, 2019 Report Posted June 19, 2019 Sorry I'm not a fan of the Hayes trade. Decent player but Maurice wasn't able to use him properly. 4th line minutes for most of our playoff games. Lemieux might be a 4th liner but the Rangers wanted him, that's why they traded with Chevy.

In Hayes they got one of the most desired players at the trade deadline... what else did you want them to do? What trades did they make that was so bad? After listening to the New York reporter who was on 1290 earlier today say that Trouba basically gave the Jets only 2 teams to deal with and then talk up Pionk by basically saying he was playing on the first pairing defense and how the Rangers were a crap defensive team all around and saying that he's much better then what the analytics suggest then I don't think the trade is really that bad.

Still a 4th liner. Hayes was good, despite being misused. That said, he's about to get paid $7M x 6 years. Crazy money. I would have been happy with a $6x6 here.

FrostyWinnipeg Posted June 19, 2019 Report Posted June 19, 2019 (edited) The Hayes trade was bad cause we were not a Cup contender. Based on how he played here...PHI overpayed. On the other hand 25g/yr guys are getting that so who knows anymore. I use coupons at Walmart. Edited June 19, 2019 by FrostyWinnipeg

Who would not want to play for Pitts even for a year tho? Did the Maatta deal get scratched? Edited June 19, 2019 by FrostyWinnipeg
