Its Nate's team - he can do what he wants

Brutal around here lately ...

Games played don't determine value. Production does.

Radiohead wroteCOLONI'm trading one asset with value. The rest are garbage and don't give me the games played BS.

Greene is likely gonna take over as the #2 dman in New Jersey. He's still relatively young, with a solid cap hit. Fiddler is underrated and offers the same stats as O'Reilly, albeit doesn't have the offensive potential O'Reilly offers.

Btw, Shiv traded:

Pavel Kubina
1st
3rd
4th
4th
5th
Future considerations

for

Andy Greene

i agree with everything you just said. and yes i did trade all that for andy greene.

I want everyone to check the following.

Fiddler vs. O'Reilly. The ONLY difference between these two going forward will be points. Periphery wise theyre going to put up very similar numbers.

O'Reilly = 50 points (lets assume he somehow hits this) 500 fow, 250 shtoi, 50 pims, 50 hits
Staois = 10 points

Fiddler = 30 points, 600 fow, 250shtoi, 75 pims, 75 hits
Greene = 30 points (very conservative. Greene is NJD's #1 d man and he hits great peripheries)

the rest of the pieces nate gave up were useless to his team and not going to make his roster.

points wise it evens out. don't get me wrong, i think i won this deal otherwise i never would have done it. but you guys are overreacting.

Not to mention Scott, in our Heatley deal, I said I didn't want Shannon, yet you threw him in regardless. You could have easily kept him and dealt him separately for assets if he had value. You threw him in because let's be honest, he's garbage, and the return you would have gotten would have been negligible.

And Tucker might retire.

insert Tallinder and Volchenkov into new jerseys lineup.

Greenes stats will decrease.
book it.

They're stay at home defencemen.

Insert Komisarek and Beauchemin into Toronto's lineup and Kaberle's stats will decre... oh wait.

i was refering to his shtoi but sure.

He's been working out a ton all summer and said he has some offers. He's just weighing his options at the moment. Just about 0% chance he retires.

I won't comment on the deal. All that needs to be said has been said.

Jesus Christ, Pittsburgh at it again, you slut

by that argument billy:

remove Paul Martin from the NJD line up and Greene's offensive stats will increase.

I agree bad trade if this was offered to me I would tell the guy to go fuck himself and block him for a week...

Billy, Nick, Scott and Kyle...All I have to say is :facepalm:. You guys should honestly be fucking ashamed, look at the deal you dumb fucks, seriously it's a bunch of plug periphery players going Shiv's way, even O'Reilly, despite the hype he is a career third liner, albeit a really good one, but so is Fiddler, and Greene is a great bargain defenceman. This is FAR from the worst deal I've seen, in fact I would go so far as to say that I like it from Nates perspective. The irony in all of this is that each of you morons have completed far more lopsided deals so cut the bs...Fucking hypocrites.

:facepalm:

A defensive defenceman, and medicore #4 who's career high in point is 20 are going to decrease Greene's ice time and power play time? You my friend are an idiot if you honestly believe that.

I'm going to block you for a week for writing such a stupid post...

LOL welcome back kareem.

So Kareem, you mean to tell me you'd trade O'Reilly for Greene straight up? LOL I highly doubt you would but whatever.. the way I see this deal is this way

Greene for O'Reilly (O'reilly has an extra year on the cheap and is 9 years cheaper. And when both resign I guarantee Greene gets the bigger contract.)

That leaves:

Tucker, Staios, Shannon, & 3 decent picks for Vernon Fiddler (LMAO - sure Fiddler's a good secondary player but I mean come on)

Now, I'm not saying this is the worst deal I've ever seen nor do I feel it's veto worthy but it's definitely a retarded trade for Nate no matter who says it isn't. I agree, everyone's over reacting, but the league's been like that since day one.. it's never gonna end.

No Scott.

The deal is Greene + Fiddler for O'Reilly. Nate would never do Andy Greene for O'Reilly straight up (I tried lol).

Let me put it this way. If the deal was:

To Carolina: Vernon Fiddler + Andy Greene
To Pittsburgh: Ryan O'Reilly

EVERYONE would say that the deal is close. What has happened is that everyone has lost sight of the fact that apart from O'Reilly, Nate gave me NOTHING ELSE of substance.

Everything else is a throw in/decoy on Nates part to get Fiddler + Greene as a return on O'Reilly. THAT'S the trade. Don't make it out to be Greene for O'Reilly.

So he gave you everything else for free? That makes it even worse LOL!!

Not only does it make the deal worse, it further proves my point LOL
