yave1964 Posted April 10, 2021 Share Posted April 10, 2021 Busy 24 hours as the deadline looms. Nothing Earth shattering but a bunch of small moves COLORADO Added former Av's d-man Nemeth from the Wings for a 4th rounder and Dubnyk from the Sharks for spare part Pateryn and a 5th rounder. Good solid add in Nemeth, a boring unspectacular player who is responsible in his own zone. Adding Dubnyk for not much is a good add as they wanted a veteran insurance policy. Wings firesale has begun. Trading dubnyk is no surprise as he has been pretty bad for the Sharks and they have kids ready to step in behind Jones who has been surprisingly not quite sucky this year. TORONTO added Riley Nash for a conditional either 6th/7th rounder. Smart cap move, Nash will mis 4-6 weeks and putting him on ltir he wont count against the cap so he is a postseaon free add who can play wing or center and kills penalties. Moves the needle very slightly. PANTHERS Brandon Montour was added from the Sabre garage sale for a third rounder. Look, I am an unapologetic fan of Montour, I think he is a great add and his offense has been underutilized both in Anaheim and buffalo. Surprised all he brought was a third. He truly is capable of moving the needle as a decent replacement for Ekblad. Ek is a better player by far but Montour can eat some minutes and run a power play. He may be the one to move the needle more than a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
