Devilsfan118 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Better than nothing I guess. Was hoping he could be packaged for a forward, but I'll take it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sundstrom Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 pretty much the best possible return straight up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
'7' Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Great return. Glad word hasn't gotten out around the league yet regarding how awful he is yet so that somebody is willing to give us a 3rd for this lost cause. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadDog2020 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Wow, great return. Didn't think we'd get more than a 5th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 There's a (very) small part of me that would've liked to have seen Gelinas get one last shot with the Devils next season...but I'm fine with this deal. I'm guessing almost everyone not named Mike Brown is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Satans Hockey Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Thanks for that ot win against the Rangers in 2013, about the only really good thing he's ever done here. He's not even worth a 3rd round pick so this is a great deal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSkirt Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) One-dimensional player that we did not need /could not afford to carry. Next year Helgeson can wear # 44 !! Edited February 29, 2016 by BlueSkirt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Devilsfan118 Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 (edited) Gelinas on TSN right now. Will report if he says anything interesting. Comments: He was 50/50 on being traded, wasn't certain it was happening until we claimed that defenseman from Pittsburgh Frustrated being healthy scratched, never requested trade though. Was intent on earning a spot. Looking forward to playing with star forwards, no dig at NJ though despite what the hosts were trying to imply. Uneventful overall, pretty standard hockey interview. No sour grapes or dirty laundry aired. Edited February 29, 2016 by Devilsfan118 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway I'm sure 2 years from now after hes been waived he'll have a 2 goal game and Mike Brown will pop in to tell us how big a mistake this was. Happy with the 3rd, good luck to him.

Mike Brown Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 Good return. He should fit in nicely on Colorado. The system they play is perfect for Eric. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because he makes some defensive mistakes doesn't mean he sucks. Nobody has any evidence he's a bad player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DJ Eco Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 The more deals that were announced, the better and better and better this deal looked like for the Devils, and it was already pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
