pilldoc Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 @pilldoc We get Tampas 1st...unless they fail to make playoffs and win the lottery. Then we'd get Rangers 1st. Thanks...wasn't sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Excellent work by Hexy. We got a cheaper, and much younger defenseman, plus a 1st and 3rd?? Sheesh, sign me up. Does anyone know if Gudas has good foot speed? Or is he another Luke Schenn? The fact that we took a defenseman back tells me we're moving another one today.

ruxpin Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 @flyercanuck Not sure who on here said about a 3rd on here. Like you I figured at least a 1st. Agree Hexy did well. I forget names of posters, but yeah, there were a couple that said third. I think that assessment was only based on seeing him play and figuring other GMs occasionally watched games as well. But when you get Chicago to pay a 2nd and a conditional for a senior citizen who hasn't played for over a year, there's no doubt Coburn goes for a first. Brilliant job by Hextall. Gotta figure the pick will end up in the 20s somewhere, but so long as Homer isn't around to trade it for Eminger we should be alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murraycraven Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Bingo Hextall... Keep it up we still have a lot of dead wood to sell off! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Also this trade makes us tougher to play against. Coburn was incredibly soft for a big player. Gudas plays with an edge and I've seen him level more than one player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruxpin Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 This is actually a huge WOW on Hextall's part. Like @pilldoc and @flyercanuck, I thought they'd get a first round pick for Ms. Coburn. But a second pick and a prospect as well? Holy crap. The market is set pretty high this year, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murraycraven Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 What are the chances we make a big move today... Package the Schenn brothers? . Move Cooter? Find the village idiot willing to take VLC, McDud or RJ? . I can hope right.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilldoc Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Does anyone know if Gudas has good foot speed? Or is he another Luke Schenn? I've seen mixed reports. Some say he doesn't have foot speed at all, I've seen some that said that this is a non-issue. Not sure who to believe at this moment. Gonna have to wait for training camp since Gudas is out with a knee scope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brelic Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 LOL, look at some of these posts from the TB part of HFBoards:Gudas + Philly fans..... oh god Yeah, that was my first thought. Gudas going to Philly is like Donald Duck going to Disney Land. Radko Gudas gets called home to the mother ship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

murraycraven Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Sounds like Gudas is a tough SOB that has a high compete level. Scouting reports suggest he is a 3rd pairing guy that can skate pretty well and drive opponents nuts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Find the village idiot willing to take VLC, McDud or RJ? . I can hope right.. I could see the Schenns being packaged together. Two half-brains make a whole brain, so it's not a bad deal I would love to see MacDud and VLC traded to Edmonton or Calgary together. MacDud has no say, but VLC would shoot that down before Hextall even finished the sentence, I'm guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, getting rid of MacDud would be better. VLC has 3 more seasons and MacDud has 5 more at a higher hit. The fact that he has no NTC makes him moveable to a team that has a hard time getting veterans to go sign there on their own, i.e. Edmonton, Calgary, Winnipeg...

brelic Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 From Ryan Bright... As for Radko Gudas.. he’s a 24-yr-old, right-handed, 3rd-pairing, super-physical D. Blocks shots, can’t handle puck. Sounds to me like he'll be a #6/7 defenseman for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
