jagknife Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Thanks for the dumb nose punch, Shero. We already had plenty of expansion fodder. Here's to hoping something else is brewing, otherwise, I personally think Ray got beat to the punch early and often when he possibly coulda traded Quincey for better returns.

MadDog2020 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Someone has asked about Prout's contract status- he's under contract for next season: http://www.spotrac.com/nhl/new-jersey-devils/dalton-prout-8172/ Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colorado Rockies 1976 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 2 minutes ago, NJDfan1711 said: If people are thinking Parenteau would only net a 6th rounder or so, granted due to his finger issue, then why would anyone expect a 3rd for Quincey? Just doesn't seem equitable to me. Pierre Mcguire was just talking about how Shero and Fitzgerald handled this situation amazingly and with a ton of class, and how other organizations will take notice. Not really sure what he means, or why this was so special, but I guess we did right by sending him to a contender or a team he was supposedly comfortable with (apparently he knows someone in or around the organization) Re: hoping for a 3rd round pick or so, partly because his numbers don't look that bad...he's a +4 on a bad team full of minuses. Obviously a LOT more to look for in a player than just +/- relative to teammates, but yeah, definitely nothing that remotely excites at the moment. Not even sure what the point of this deal was.

NJDfan1711 Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 5 minutes ago, SMantzas said: Paul Castron, our head of scouting, drafted him in CBJ Ah, yeah, that makes sense. Pierre was talking quick and the stream was also cutting in and out so didn't quite hear it all. 5 minutes ago, DJ Eco said: Holding him out of a game or a practice or two (or the team bus headed to the airport right now) is already a step up from how other teams approach their obvious trade bait ahead of the deadline. I'd be interested to see what else Pierre is referring to as well though. I guess that makes sense and is the courteous thing to do. If I was a GM, granted I'd want all my players to feel safe, comfortable, and at home on the team, but I'd also be pretty up front with them all the time, and make sure they all know that it's a business, and anything can happen at anytime unfortunately. This is ESPECIALLY true when a team is where we are right now, basically in a situation to try to do anything to improve the roster. 1 minute ago, jagknife said: Thanks for the dumb nose punch, Shero.

Mike Brown Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 I would have rather just kept Quincey. Prout sucks. Quincey is actually a solid defenseman. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triumph Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 Prout's numbers from last year aren't awful. But he does take a ton of penalties. He's a back-pairing D but he has to limit the penalties. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weekes Head Posted March 1, 2017 Share Posted March 1, 2017 The Golden Knights are also officially an NHL team now. Pretty weird that there's 31 teams in the league. Still don't like the name, logo, colors....I'm sure they'll be an overall annoying team in time. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk What bothers me is you can easily make a case for Quincey to be as good as Hainsey, we all pretty much agreed on that the other day. Pitt gave up a 3rd and a AHLer, we pick up a bottom pair/AHLer who still has another year left. The case is desperately being made to be expansion fodder, but come on, we have plenty to expose.
