I feel the same, and I'm not just saying that. Typing this deal was one of the hardest things I've ever done, I better win it all this season or this deal looks stupid.

i like it for my pick too bud

It means a lot of things. One, I got your pick, and given FLA's relative youth, I think they'll slide. Markstrom's out for the next little while too. So this could dually help the NW division because you no longer have a stable stead of goaltending. Don't get me wrong, it's a terrific deal for you. Just helps me quite a bit (I hope).

yeah i definitely agree, i'm weaker short term in net no doubt.

Kareem will trade him this off season, won't make his 2012/2013 starting roster.

I'm curious, what makes you say that?

7M caphit next season.

Not a big fan of this deal Arian, you really landed nothing substantial for one of the best goaltenders in the league.

[The BBKL Insider]

couldn't disagree more with Scott on this one, how this doesn't benefit a team like Arian is beyond me, this might be the best bbkl cycle of all time. He paid me Steve Mason for Rinne 2 years ago, then flips him and pretty much builds his team going forward.

IMO this deal makes kareem stronger this season, but this deal will also put Arian into the top 5 in the West next year. IMO it's a big win win deal, the bigger win on Arian's side.

[kyuss]

What the fuck, you and shep should have traded Rinne and Suter before they fucked-up my team, not right after our matchups!

I don't know about that..

+1

[Lee]

This deal is worse that the one I said you shouldn't do last night.

[The BBKL Insider]

I have two theories

1. You guys are either super pussies of Kareem's team now

2. You're blind to what Arian's team needs - this deal was killer for his team.


So, to make a long story short, i'm reading these comments and assuming you're pussies and dislike one of Arian and/or Kareem.

[Lee]

Dislike Kareem.

Still doesn't make up for the offer he told me about last night and the one he settled on. I wouldn't have trade Rinne for almost anything. Every single thing he received in return is very easily attainable.

How?

The Preds are about to lose their 2 best dman, no one wants to sign there, Rinne is about to make 7mil per year over the next 8000 years.....Markstrom is one of the best goalie prospects in the world, PAP is one heck of a bbkler, he landed very good prospects in Biggs and Holland. He landed a solid duo in Jose and Clem's....

goodness, this is how you turn a team around. I was also reading about Rinne's goalie stats last night....he's a career .890 goalie with one of weber and suter out of the lineup, and he could essentially lose both this summer.........this deal couldn't have worked out better for arain.

Just listen to Steve
