PLD should be radioactive by now. Shedding Kuemper's $5.25M for an absolute albatross $8.5M in PLD, just doesn't make sense. Maybe WSH has a buyer lined up to move him before July 1st. Some bottom feeding team that will eat that disgusting contract. Least, I hope they do, because that NMC is going to be a friggen boat anchor.

@@people3865 Pretty sure virtually everyone realizes this. They are also trying to get OV past Gretzky's record. It's not just good for OV, it's good for the Washington Capitals. Picking up this plug of a player, is a massive risk. It wasn't very difficult to decipher this guy's confusion over the move.

Once ovie retires expect a massive rebuild

Man, Calgary was so close to being Florida-light a few years ago, team could have been a wagon in the making, such a shame...

Ol' Button been dipping into the Christmas egg nog a little early this year. Bilardi, Lafallo, Kupari, Pierre Luc Dubois and a second round pick for Kuemper? "Did an outstanding job?"

Got a player +gained some cap space and REMOVED a LAZY hockey player in PLD

They did sell low on Tanev the leafs offered more and the owner stepped in😂

Button hasn't watched Bahl has he? Solid yes, tough to play against... jury is out.

​@@joevanbaidwan3196 he plays a style that neutralizes that argument because his anticipation is so good. Juuse Saros proves smaller goaltenders can be excellent in the NHL.

The fact that we didnt give up any of our top prospects, had CGY retain salary on Markstrom, and have it be next years first rounder + top 10 protected is ridiculous. Kevin Bahl STINKS lol.

Markstrom stinks too. I would rather have traded for a good goalie that isn't 65 years old. I would have loved to trade away that useless dwarf Mercer after his pathetic season.

Ranford best goalie coach? How has their net been since Quick?

Wolf needs more playing time. I hope the Flames can pick up a veteran goalie who’s had success in his career- I would suggest Martin Jones for some backup Insurance. He is cheap on a 1-2 yr contract for $900,000 great goalie near the end of his career.

So Ullmark to the sens is definitely happening.

markstrom trade was so much better for the flames than the ullmark 🤣

Gonna guess before watching Button says CGY did great & that if Conroy could've got more he would've which is a terrible defense to a mediocre return but he says it for every CGY trade.

just when you thought the flames couldnt lose more games than the previous years. lol. top 5 pick coming up. but does it go to MTL ?

If true being the key words. We all hear rumours but most aren’t true. I’ve liked most of Conny’s trades this year. Not everything can be a slam dunk but he’s gotten a lot of picks and prospects for expiring assets and players who didn’t want to be here. I think he’s done a really good job so far while taking the team in a direction it’s never really been allowed to go before.

Leafs lose out on another pure #1 goalie... Markstrom didn't have the D he needed in Calgary, he was great in Vancouver. He would've been lit up like Victoria Day Fireworks had he actually been traded to the Leafs & their porous D and non-back checking 'Core Fore' (TM).

Lame analysis wait for new arena

Washington d was terrible , I hope the capitals are listening.

GM RB actually found a dumber GM,will wonders never cease? 🤔

From Washington’s point of view this is a classic case of subtraction by addition. Dubois has been a lazy, overrated, overpaid, selfish malcontent for years and will quickly make the Caps regret making this move.
