NHL crazy trading this year

[bluesfan4eva]

What is up with this. over 30 trades a week before the deadline. I love the blues getting stewart and shattenkirk though. amazing trade!!!

It has been crazy!

I like my Penguins getting James Neal and Alex Kovalev for almost nothing. With all of our injuries currently; we need all the help we can get.

true. the pens are nothing without crosby. but at least you have a guaranteed playoff spot. the blues have to dominate to even think about the playoffs. not to mention the fact that if we dont make it season ticket holders only have to pay half of their price for tickets.

As an Avs fan, I'm highly conflicted on all of the moves. I love the Johnson trade (a big, skilled d-man is a rarity) even though it came at a pretty steep price. The X-factor is the 1st round pick from this year, which could be a top-10 pick giving Colorado 2, top-10 selections. This could easily be used to pull off a bigger trade. I hate the Anderson deal as it is bad to throw away their MVP of last year and punish him for playing while he's not healthy.

I hope they move Liles, though, to clear his contract off the books and maybe get a good prospect and a 2nd round pick.

I do like Chris Stewart. I don't think the Avs should have got rid of him. He is an up and coming star. A very good young power forward.

as a hawks fan and former goalie - i was not a fan of letting go of niemi and getting turco...

however, crawford has stepped up.

That confused me as well. Niemi is a great goalie. I am glad hes with a club (the sharks) who seem to appreciate him!

But yea the trades have been nuts this year. Here's hoping my Flyers go all the way and take the cup this year!

yup that trade was great. stewart already has 6 goals and one assist in 5 games. him alone makes up for johnsons lack of production

I saw Crawford play tons of games in the AHL. I think he has stepped up, but I do not want to see the Hawks overpay him. He is playing out of his mind, he isn't this good IMO

Jagr will have a good season. I think he'll put up offensive stats to match his contract. However, his effort/defense tend to lack.
