Jones and a 1st, and a 3rd for a signed Joe Thorton jersey?

Haha! I was just thinking the same thing. Probably got a decent return and put him right back in LA's face.

Between Sweeney and Lombardi I dont know what the hell is going on in the world of hockey right now.

No surprise imo....with Rask already there and Subban in the wings, I have no doubt it was always Sweeney's intention to flip Jones for something/someone else.

Just need to see the return to figure out if Sweeney has regained any semblance of sanity.

Sweeney has really desecrated the bruins in the last week. Starts his rebuild by trading a 21 year old stud defensemen, trades away Lucic, gets a bunch of picks. Uses the picks by grabbing projected 2nd round prospects. Trades for Zac Rinaldo. Trades away Jones for _____.

When the dust settles I'd love to see an import export analysis of the bruins offseason.

Not reported by anyone reliable, but some are saying Mirco Mueller going back to Boston?

Pierre LeBrun @Real_ESPNLeBrun
Believe it's a pick and a prospect headed over to Boston for Jones...

If it's a pick AND a prospect, and the prospect is Mirco Mueller, I can't imagine the pick is anything major because Mueller is a first rounder. IMO that's pretty solid return.

A 2016 first from a team that wasn't a playoff team last year...that is decent return from Sweeney.

That's actually a pretty good return for Jones. That 1st could end up being reasonably high...

A 1st rounder? The goalie market is just silly sometimes.

How the hell did Vancouver manage to screw up so much to only get a 3rd for Lack.

1sts for Lehner and Jones, and a 2nd + pieces for Talbot.
