again, if the freeze is lifted tomorrow Fraser shouldn't be posting or confirming deals before tomorrow at least?

[LeanMachine]

I assumed he was liaisoning with his trade buddy

I dont mind taking it down.

[The BBKL Insider]

Confirmed today or tomorrow.

Whenever

[Tony]

I'd take it down. It's terrible.

[Fraser]

I'd take it down. It's terrible.

I realize I'm potentially giving up the better player in the long run. But as it stands right now I own none of my own first three rounds of picks for next year, so I'll be damned if I'm not competitive! Kassian is a 23yr old player who will most likely be playing in a top 6 role for the first time in his career this upcoming season. And if he can continue he play from the 2nd half of last year this should be a breakout season for him. Chuck warned me I'd get a negative reception, but ultimately he wouldn't stand in the way of this deal. Youl see! Youl all see!

[Tony]

I'm not one to tell people how to GM their team. If you like the deal, that's all that matters. I've made far far worse in the eyes of others...

[kimmer]

lol omfg steve

[kimmer]

edit that 3rd to a 1st and u guys have a deal

[The BBKL Insider]

Id rather kassian. I figured if he's a nucks fan i wouldn't hold one of his favorite players hostage. If he decides he can get a better return I'mokay not doing the deal.

[Nick]

Nothin wrong with this deal.


Fraser told me he valued Kassian like Tatar, and I wouldn't do tommy for filip, so I can see why he would do this.

[kimmer]

LA wins long term

[cliff11]

huge win for LA

Kassian blows

[LeanMachine]

remember when Kassian was traded for Hodgson?

[Nick]

Or filip traded for erat...

[Bruyns]

Seems fair

Unless Forsberg is putting up 50+ points he won't contribute to much else. Risky move though since he could develop into a 1st liner.

[bills09]

Hagelin for Kassian+

[Chuck Norris]

Buddy confirms.

[kimmer]

Leanmachine r u eric?
