You're right, forgot they eliminated that.

Really pleased with this. Great work by Conroy and a chance for Lindholm to play a role in eliminating the oilers this year.

Now retain on a Hanifin package and get another haul!

I wish him well with hopes his love for the game can regenerated. It was clear he checked out on this season and I have wondered if all the trade rumors' and talk were affecting his play.

Good for Conroy for not going overboard and throwing Tanev on there for something else marginal like Rutherford probably wanted.
Let other teams stew over him for the next 6 weeks (though I'd keep him and sign him for a year if he doesn't get the premium we need).

Looking much better than the Iggy trade. Good work Connie.

The Toffoli trade turned out better than I ever thought it could be. Hopefully this one does too.

[iggyloob12]

So what was the deal with Tanev??

[Nufy]

Watching Vancouver out the greasers in the playoffs will be so much sweeter now...

There were tweets coming in before the entire trade was announced that suggested there was no retention.

This is just fantastic news. They got a 1st, a 4th, a really good prospect, another solid prospect, and a right handed winger with the potential to be useful right now or be flipped for a good UFA who was having a bad season.

Kuzmenko had 39 goals last season!

That'll work! And I think Kuzmenko is an excellent buy low acquisition. I think he could fit with Hubs.

It was meant as a light hearted joke.

Probably not the time to fire shots "insider".

Go ahead, show me where I bashed people for bringing it up. I said they wouldn't trade him to Vancouver and I said I was definitely wrong earlier in the thread. I didn't bash anyone, Monahammer went off the deep end and did that launching a slew of personal attacks. Don't confuse is.

Low hockey IQ and slow decision making is what's held him back. Has some pretty elite tools though

[AustinL_NHL]

Holy hell what a haul by Conroy.

Let's go

If he can get Hubs game going that would be a huge plus.

[mrdonkey]

I don’t like trying to remember Brzustewicz, so I’m just going to call him Berserkerwicz instead.

Welcome to the team, Berserkerwicz!

[schteve_d]

Nice work Conny, that's a nice haul! If this is the first step on this journey that we have needed for a long, long time I'm feeling good about it.

Keep it up new Wizard!
