serge 904 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 burke says next trade will be announced shortly..pretty sure its the Giguere trade Link to post Share on other sites
pezeveng 207 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 some posts from a Flames message boardI smell Kovalchuk going to the Flames in the near futureYou have to be... Shitting me. No *!!%%%+ way this happened. Am i dreaming? I honestly don't care what happened in the past anymore. Sutter needs to get the **+! out of Calgary. God dammit! Why? Not even a first rounder? **+! SUTTER. **+! **+! **+!! I feel sickBye, bye Sutter.What a terrible deal and exactly why you don't make trades from a position of weakness. Just a god awful deal. wow, flames get shafted by the leafs again.....reminds me of the dougie gilmore trade/whatever it was.................Oh God...I feel sick looking at that deal.Stajan's a 3rd line center at best; Hagman is ... ok I guess but not top-end; Same with White, he's pretty good but...not great. Mayers is junk. And to top it all off we threw in a young defenceman. Tell me Sutter isn't that dumb. How could he not have gotten Kaberle out of it...or a first round pick from somebody...Phaneuf had to have more trade value than this, and if he didn't, would've been better off to keep him. If Dutter picks up a rental player for anything more than a Jim Peplinski Bobblehead doll he should be fired immediately. That's assuming we make the play offs at all. We don't need to "rent" anyone to help us bow out in the 1st round this year. Link to post Share on other sites
pezeveng 207 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 TSN and Sportsnet are snapping right now they have curling and some random show on. I guess the top execs are all of on Sunday perfect day to announce the trades. Link to post Share on other sites

pezeveng 207 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I wonder if Burke and Co did this on purpose to screw the media knowing Sunday is the best day to slide this in. Link to post Share on other sites
serge 904 Posted January 31, 2010 Author Share Posted January 31, 2010 I wonder if Burke and Co did this on purpose to screw the media knowing Sunday is the best day to slide this in.i would love that if it was true..Also important comment..I WILL NOT ASK KABERLE TO WAIVE HIS NO TRADE..But it goes away if we miss playoffs Link to post Share on other sites
bdc30 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 but a kaberle trade isn't nearly as valuable post deadline anyway.Even as a leaf hater, I can't believe this trade...To get Phaneuf and some young prospect(s) for a pile of underperforming malcontents is a steal.

bdc30 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 see, maybe a few weeks off did you some good ;)I can't imagine how the phonecall would have gone between the gm's...."Hi it's Brian, we want Phaneuf.""Ok, we'll take Stajan, White, Hagman and Mayers.""SNAPFISTPUMPCALL!"

FCP Bob 1,321 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I think this shows what the Flames think about Phaneuf and his current level of play at his contract. If he plays like he did a couple years ago big win for the Leafs. If he plays like he has this year for the Flames the Leafs might have an overrated over priced player.Good trade and worth the gamble considering he's still young. Link to post Share on other sites
Orcasgt22 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 LOL!! Sutter is the new Mad Mike Milbury. What a terrible terrible trade for the Flames. They really got the shaft from Burke(good on him for shafting them).In Edmonton their is a saying: ABC, Anybody But Calgary. So I must say yay good trade. Link to post Share on other sites
MapleLeafpoker 1,462 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I think there is some underestimation going on of stajan,white,hagman. I'm curious to see how they play outside TO. Blake going to Anaheim too Link to post Share on other sites
00Lenny 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I love both deals. Rumor has it the Giggy deal is done. Giggy for Blake and toskola. Byebye 4-5m+ in salary. Phaneuf deal is GREAT, minus the loss of hagman and white.http://mapleleafs.nhl.tv/team/console.jsp?...16&id=58871 Press conferences on loop for those of you who don't have Leafs TV.

00Lenny 0 Posted January 31, 2010 Share Posted January 31, 2010 I think the sickest, most insane part of this deal is that he ALMOST got a first round pick BACK in this deal too. It was robbery to begin with, nevermind throwing that 1st rounder in.Ninja edit: Burke just said "We're open for business. We're not done yet." I got CHILLS. Link to post Share on other sites
