It will also mean Hanifin doesn't get an 8-year contract.

I won't shed a tear over either of those results.

Guess we'll see. He wasn't much of a factor here in the playoffs.

Craig Conroy on the deal:

“It was extremely important to us to ensure this deal featured a first-round draft pick, and a third-round pick that has the potential to become a second-round selection. Additionally, we have been tracking Daniil the past couple of seasons and we are pleased to have been able to ensure he was a part of this trade. He has good size at 6’4” with good skating ability and speed. He commands a heavy shot, makes quick plays and we are excited about his offensive upside. At the AHL level he has been dominant in creating offense as a defenseman and we anticipate that to translate to the NHL.”

I thought Conroy was going to say he was the centrepiece

So, they sat down and said to themselves, "We need a first round pick, and a 3rd that can potentially (but highly unlikely) can become a 2nd".

Conroy really has the gift of the gab.

I like the fact that just like the Lindholm trade, he received value that was more valuable to him than the opposing team. Calgary needs a PP QB, and the opposing team valued those players quite a bit less due to need.

That's how good trades are made.

Even Conroy wouldn't go that far LOL.

One small nitpick. I think this is basically a guaranteed second but agree on the overall point.

Is it possible that the Vegas trade was a bit of an FU to Noah and his rep? Maybe that was the tie breaker here.

I think the key part of that quote is

This is where you rely on your scouting staff and trust they have the right read on a guy.

If correct and his game does tranlate to the show, this could be a home run.

Possible, and also sends a message as a new GM since everybody seemed sure Tampa was going to get him. I’d love to know what the Tampa offer was.

Could be. For Hanifin to get 8 years with a Florida team is now harder. Vegas would have to do a sign and trade in the offseason.

Same or worse. Don’t think he’d take a worse package on principle

That wouldn’t bother me if the offers were similar. I’m kind of a petty person.

How'd he do last night?

He looked like his usual vanilla self. Skate well, kept his jersey clean.

There are some on CP making that claim (to criticize the trade).

[Vesa Viitakoski]

I am just really happy to see us getting assets back for UFA's. I would rather watcha young team making mistakes with effort than watching an underperforming Vet squad.

[GioforPM]

Well, Conroy did as he promised. No UFAs. He moved all of them. I assume OK is extending.

We don't care about Rooney, don't we?

First game with VGK he had only 30 seconds less than Alex Pietrangelo and more shifts then any other defenseman.

I am kinda indifferent, he was coming to be a UFA I think it's fair to say he won't sign, If I was the player in that position why would you want to give any leverage you have on your decision making about your future to your team?

I understand maybe he should of just said "I'm open to see how things go and possibly sign an extension" and then go the UFA route but then he is garnering a pure rental price in that situation regardless. It makes sense to try and make the 4 teams that could get him out bid each other.
