Fack!

[RichieNextel305]

Deal done.

[Zuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuc]

Well fuck. I don't want to play Florida in the playoffs this year...

[RichieNextel305]

Florida is a scary team. 

[RJWantsTheCup]

Hard to believe the Rangers couldn’t top that offer.  Hopefully Drury doesn’t disappoint with whatever moves he makes. 

[Ozzy]

I guess we didn't want him...'cause that's not much!

[Pete]

Panthers still don't scare me.

 

[Dunny]

Gonna be tough when we pay through the nose for Wennberg and guys like Tarasenko and Mantha go for virtually nothing.

 

Hopefully this is a sign that Drury has something really special cooking.

Same. Neither does Tarasenko.

If that's all that was given up for Tank, I hope we don't give up a lot for Wennberg.

No one scares me. There are a handful of teams that could win this including the rangers. 
 

But florida has to be one of the front runners even before this trade

 

with that said in shocked about this return. No retention?

My reason for not being afraid of the Cats:

[BrooksBurner]

That’s all Tarasenko returned? And we are talking a 2nd+ for Wennberg?

 

FOH

This is good. Tank sets the market low again. I was indifferent for him. I'm not sure how well he would have worked at 1rw

I'm thinking we passed on him intentionally.  That is not a lot at all.

You may have been right, Big Daddy!  He may not have worked with Kreider and Zibby.  Then again, fucking Rocket Richard probably wouldn't either!

They would've had to get a 3rd team involved for retention, but I think they could've made it work without retention.

We will see what Drury pulls off to determine if they missed an opportunity on this trade.

He looked fine with them last season in a small sample.

What the fuck is this? A 4th round pick and a 3rd round pick next year for Tarasenko WITH retention? That’s nothing lol.

From what I remember, he moreso played with Panarin last year. Plus there's always that fact we got bounced in round 1 so I'm not going to lose sleep over not getting him. It wasn't some magic in a bottle acquisition.

That Twitter chatter about retention was never confirmed or verified by anyone reputable.

He would have consumed all their cap space and left no room for anything else. I think it says Drury is prioritizing having room for a center.
