[kimmer]

Good here. Ecstatic to get Murray
Thanks anton

[anton]

you're welcome

[The BBKL Insider]

Pretty fair deal
Both staal and ennis moved to the wing

[anton]

still takin dem draws tho. 9 FOW tonight

[LeanMachine]

yea if Murray can get over his injuries...love that kid

[Bruyns]

Nice deal!

[anton]

would've never done this had murray been healthy but these constant injuries are not good. it's not even just the shoulder - now it's knee.

[kimmer]

hello, sexy men

[Fraser]

Like it for both. Good deal. Could be real good for Kim if Ennis ends up on Mcdavid's wing.

[Matthew]

Even if he could end up on Eichel's wing. God, I was just looking at that kid's stats. Gaudreau put up 2 point a game at Boston College as a 20 year old. Eichel is doing it as a 17 year old. No other player on that team under 20 has even got a .5p/gm pace. And Eichel is 6'2 195 lbs.

Yeah, this years top 2 picks are insane. Would be a shame if one of the top BBKL teams manage to get their hands on either. They both have franchise changing abilities.

[Matthew]

while unlikely, It isn't out of the question that Eichel could end up as the best draft pick since Crosby.

[Bruyns]

STL and NSH both have a good chance.

[kimmer]

I'll just make the playoffs with this lineup

[Tony]

Not really

shame to the league

[hong57]

Actually i see this as...
Staal > Ennis + nik + 3rd
Bogosian > Murray..

so i think it's a no brainer for anton.......

[anton]

staal is always a risk because he'll never be easy to move with the contract, and it's only going to get harder as time passes.

this is probably going to be a long term commit to staal for me simply because i doubt ill ever get full value for him in a trade...unless of course that rumored deal to the leafs actually happens.

i do like getting bogo for an unproven/injured murray though

It's not like Nashville or St Louis are Toronto or LA. They are 4th and 8th in the western conference, respectively. 12th and 16th in the league.
