I mean, once you start to move into the window, you have to recognize that you're in a war for the division for years to come, Karlsson to Tampa is a juggernaut which should not be allowed without a fight.

High stakes gambit, put the full package on the table, agree to take Bobby Ryan back in the deal, if Melnyk doesn't bite, it at least drives the price through the roof for Tampa, if Melnyk does bite, got Karlsson for two runs at it, never look back. :think:

RLY? Pitt gets their 3C, who'd they send back in the deal?

Don't know yet, it's a three way trade, details still getting sorted out as we speak, cap issues holding it up. Vegas involved in the deal too.

Devils give up way too much for Grabner.

I like Grabner, he was snakebit for the Leafs, but he's been money for the Rangers, and he's dirt cheap.

Grabner is slowing down and they give up a second rounder. All he does is score goals by getting breakaways, he can't get an assist to save his life, foolish. Good sell by the Rangers, dump him now while his shooting percentage tricks teams into thinking he's still got a lot left in the tank when he doesn't. Devils not so smart.

He's a rental, just speed forechecking and penalty kill, NJD ain't worrying about a 2nd right now, they're loaded up with kids, they need some playoff money for the owners.
