[bills09]

To Ottawa
2016 4th Rounder (CHI)
Ryan Ellis

To Pittsburgh
Jarred Tinordi
2017 1st Rounder (CAR)

[Handsome&FairMike]

Agreed

[kimmer]

Really fair deal couldn't have found a better use/application for that 2017 1st rounder (CAR) on a single player in a million years myself

[Tony]

yawn

[The BBKL Insider]

really like ryan ellis

[Matthew]

Darn it. I wanted that.

[lightupdadarkness]

Like for billy but could depend what mike has planned for that pick

[Handsome&FairMike]

LOVE ryan ellis. Probably my most preferred d-man on my team, but the potential value there was too high to pass up on methinks. Plus shouldn't have too much of an immediate hit to my team, so works out for both parties involved.

[kyuss]

Significant deal no doubt.

A deal that suggests for Billy (and probably for others here as well) Ellis is on a different level than Ekholm. Will be interesting to compare their careers moving forward.

[Matthew]

Probably a guaranteed top 6-7 pick too.

[The BBKL Insider]

i'd set you up with Patrick Weinriouch for Ekholm, no problems

[bills09]

Considering I got the pick I look at it as
Ellis+4th for Tinordi

[Fraser]

Your doing a good job with your team billy.

[Arian The Insider]

I actually like this for the handsome devil

[Matthew]

I think overpayment by Bill.

[bills09]

Ryan Ellis locked in at 2.5M for 4 more years is great value for the kid as well

[Matthew]

Is a really good contract, that's true.
