I thought for sure Nyquist was the odd man out...but I guess not?


Quoting: capsfan2121
It’s sad they pick him over nyqvist


I didn’t think Jarmo wouldn’t move Nyquist, he is the typical Blue Jacket Blue Collar type player, but so what Bjorkstrand.

I’m surprised oilers didn’t take a shot at him.


Ya, I can think of a lot of teams. All I know is if Grubauer returns to his COL form, look out for SEA

True but no trade protection and adds 5.5mill in cap space. Then they can send down one of the waiver exempt guys and they should be fine

Like to me its the safest choice

But why not keep the 1 year guy and trade the guy who has a 4 year contract for a 3rd and 4th round pick.

Columbus was better off paying to get rid of Nyqvist if that what it took to move him

I think keeping Akesion is a Beter idea than getting vorchek

Nyquist was probably unmoveable . Ridiculous off-season this year

There’s no shot Calgary wouldn’t have beat that offer. I refuse to believe it. Unbelievable. This is one of the worst trades I’ve ever seen. I think this is literally worse than giving Fleury and Pacioretty away for nothing. Bjorkstrand is really good

I mean he doesnt have trade protection and Anaheim got cap space. Also 52 points including 18 goals aint bad. Probs could get a 4th for him unless Vegas really boned the market

But man I would be surprised if they moved Jenner especially after he was just named Captain

All this tomfoolery Kekkäläinen is currently engaging in is making it difficult for me to absorb this at the same time

I feel it happened so quick that the Flames GM didnt have time to make a deal as probs Carolina's GM was just to fast. But man getting Coghlan and Patches after losing Gaudreau not only might have made Chucky consider staying longer but would have gave Calgary 2 nice pieces at the cost of nothing

Every year there are players available for pretty much nothing (Toews, Buchnevich, Bjorkstrand) . God Gm's are so dumb lol , they'd rather give a 6 year deal to a washed up UFA.
