Franchise NHL: Completed Transactions / Re: Avalanche strikes Lightning
« on: September 19, 2014, 05:25:33 PM »This is a stupid br0ken ph0ne trade s0 I will keep it brief.confirms
Le0n Draisaitl
4th
F0r
Zach Fucale
With this m0ve I am freeing myself 0f a $3m c0mmitment f0r a r00kie. I d0 think Draisaitl will beat Arc0bell0 f0r the #2 piv0t in Edm0nt0n but $3m is t00 rich f0r me.
In return I gain a blue-chip g0alie pr0spect that will appreciate in value as the seas0n m0ves al0ng. He is a ways fr0m reaching the NHL but I have full c0nfidence that when he d0es his value will be immense.
Cheers t0 Daddy f0r the deal!
Avalanche sends:

Me and my Smoking Gun "Man Crushes"..You know boys somewhere in the middle of my rebuild I looked at JVR, Landeskog, Nichushkin, Forsberg, Hedman, Campbell, etc. etc. etc. & thought to myself hmm..maybe I can make just a little noise sooner than later.
I love Pascale & his tremendous upside however I really like the more immediate prospect impact Leon Draisaitl can make to this team. Already owning Niemi/Stalock & backing them with Jack Campbell, i just felt Draisaitl is a better fit. Did I mention that I love this kid? ALOT!
I appreciated the talks as always in FNHL, very professional SJ. Good Luck bud
