Hell yes addition by subtraction with Pionk in itself. GREAT move!!

[Bugg]

Essentially 2 months of Hayes and Pionk for Trouba...nice.

[RangersIn7]

Wow

 

That’s a low price they paid. What a steal

[RodrigueGabriel]

I thought this had to be a joke.

I didnt really want him... but, for free? Sure...

[BrooksBurner]

So they paid less for Trouba then WPG paid for 2 months for Hayes?

 

That is unbelievable. What a deal by Gorton.

and Lemieux!

[josh]

2 months of Hayes =* 1 year Trouba

Pionk = Lemieux

 

 

 

 

* Not actually "="

[RodrigueGabriel]

Now tell me it's under $7/per.

Amazing!!!!

How does the asking price go from Buchnevich/Lundkvist/1st round pick to Pionk/1st round pick?

[The Dude]

Niiiice. Thought they'd have to give up more. Glad Pionk is gone.

 

They still have to move a RH D man.

I mean those were just rumors. Winnipeg can ask for anything they want initially it doesn?t mean that?s what they?ll get.

 

But yea it?s a big difference lol

Brooks doesn't know what the fuck he's talking about.

[Morphinity 2.0]

Absolutely ridiculous trade. Winnipeg is panicking.

[ThirtyONE]

Fuck. I've been following twitter all day and I missed it!

 

What. A. Fucking. Steal.

[Ranger Lothbrok]

I thought this had to be a joke. Other teams get these deals, not us (e.g., Hall for Larsson).

 

Gorton is fighting decades of destruction in a few short years. Amazing, amazing trade. One of the best we've ever made to be honest.

[ThirtyONE]

No extension in place.

 

This is the kind of bold shit Gorton is becoming known for. It's a gamble but it could pay off enormously.

It makes you wonder... maybe NY was the only team offering a 1st + NHL player? Some of the rumored names from Detroit and Philly... and this is what they accept?

 

Maybe JG had an option to move to the mid-teens, went back to Chevy and he accepted. You have to think theyd get more at the draft...

[BrooksBurner]

No extension in place.

Meh. I feel pretty confident it won't be that hard to get him to sign an extension.

Bob Gainey running Winnipeg now?
