New Jersey Devils @NJDevils
TRADE ALERT: The #NJDevils have acquired goaltender @eddielack from the @NHLFlames in exchange for defenseman Dalton Prout. Lack has been re-assigned to @BingDevils, from Calgary’s AHL affiliate, Stockton @AHLHeat. atnhl.com/2C0LrUV

[sureLoss]

Think Prout is heading to Stockton as he just cleared waivers a day ago

[Caged Great]

This solves everything.

[Reggie Dunlop]

Tyler Parsons, come on up!

[CliffFletcher]

This should shake the team out of their funk...

[Strange Brew]

Huh... Hope this works out for Lack and maybe Parsons plays some in the AHL this year?

Presumably this guy can play in the NHL if needed. Bartkowski’s reign of error may be nearing an end.

[CMPunk]

Disappointing as I really liked Eddie and wanted him to succeed, however Rittich stole the job and isn't giving it back any time soon.

Good Luck with the Devils Eddie!

Dalton Prout, newly acquired by CAL, will report to AHL Stockton

[transplant99]

Well Prout is a great big hulking dude and not afraid to play a nasty game... if nothing else.

[bubbsy]

Hmm aren't we already heavy on d in the farm? Are the flames looking to trade one of the d prospects I wonder....

[skcli]

Great Trade. Should improve the PK somewhat

[sureLoss]

Prout also gives Flames a 5th right shooting D on a NHL contract.

Flames take $200k in cap space in the deal as well.

[nightfx]

Reunite him with Brodie!!

[Reggie Dunlop]

Parsons was in Calgary post-Christmas break, taking in Wednesday's practice. No doubt being checked out by Flames medical staff (Parsons was recently injured playing in Kansas City). My guess he's ready to go, and will soon be assigned to Stockton.

[Bear]

Prout definitely not afraid to drop them with Lucic. They've had 3 or 4 good tilts including one where Prout dropped him.

[Gaskal]

Brad publicly expressing unhappiness at how soft the Flames are? Haha.

[Reggie Dunlop]

"Dalton Prout" sounds like the name of a Hollywood screenwriter blacklisted during the McCarthy era.

Lack was obviously not getting anywhere with the Flames so this appears to be one of those moves that is as much for the player as it is for the organization. The mockery is a bit unwarranted IMO.

What mockery?
