Hearing that the San Jose Sharks have acquired Martin Jones from the Boston Bruins

Dreger is hinting there may be more to the trade

Please don't say "for John Scott."

 

[Smiling Joe Hesketh]

I guess that puts the highly crazy rumors of Rask heading to San Jose to rest.
 
Wonder who will be the backup next season.

 

[cshea]

Draft picks next year?

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

I shouldn't be scared by this transaction but why do I think there's more to it. Like Sweeney giving up a mid round pick like its candy. Does San Jose have any AHL enforcers on the roster? 

 

[soxhop411]

“@KKurzCSN: Not sure yet what #SJSharks are giving to Boston, but I’m told it’s nothing off the current roster”

 

[IdiotKicker]

Draft picks next year?

A 7th in 2017 is my bet.

 

[dylanmarsh]

Please don't say "for John Scott."

 
Holy shit. He is on their roster.

 

[RIFan]

Please don't say "for John Scott."

First thing that came to mind.

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

I'm not kidding, if it's Jones for Scott, I'm done with these two clownsticks.

 

[Salem's Lot]

I bet they get less then they gave for Rinaldo. Fucking clowns.

 

[Monbo Jumbo]

A 7th in 2017 is my bet.

 
Something from the 7th level of Dante's Inferno perhaps. 

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

I'm not kidding, if it's Jones for Scott, I'm done with these two clownsticks.

 
You know the return is going to make Scott look like a best case scenario...

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

How does it get any worse than a fourth line of Scott-Talbot-Rinaldo?

 

[cshea]

Cam Talbot got a 2nd. Lack a 3rd. Something in that range? Jones is arguably the best of the bunch.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

How does it get any worse than a fourth line of Scott-Talbot-Rinaldo?

When Claude rolls that out as his 3rd line

 

[RedSox040713]

Loading up on draft picks for Bickell no doubt

 

[PedroSpecialK]

May not be a good idea to piss off the Kings, who apparently didn't want Jones in their conference (let alone division). Less trading partners means more Hamilton-style deals.
 
Not holding my breath for much more than a 4th.

Mirco Müller plus a 2016 2nd - reported on twitter

 

[soxhop411]

“@Real_ESPNLeBrun: Sharks give up a 2016 first-round draft pick plus unsigned prospect Sean Kuraly for Martin Jones”

 

[RedOctober3829]

Mirco Mueller? 

 

[RedSox040713]

https://twitter.com/real_espnlebrun/status/615927674775564288

That's a really good trade acrually

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Holy shit

 

[Greg29fan]

Don Sweeney made a good trade!

 

[cshea]

My man, Don!

 

[IdiotKicker]

 
Something from the 7th level of Dante's Inferno perhaps. 

I believe we call that the 9th level of TDGarden.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Don Sweeney made a good trade!

Blind squirrel meet acorn

 

[jsinger121]

That's really good trade there

 

[jk333]

That's a lot... Sweeney did good on this one.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Kuraly is another Miami (OH) guy.
 
Intriguing and a definite win - solidifies the Lucic transaction a great one

 

[Haunted]

What the hell?  Who actually made this deal?

I've just stepped down from the Tobin. Today is a new day!

 

[MiracleOfO2704]

Yup. Half-price Lucic for Zboril, Miller, Kuraly, and a 2016 1st.

 

[BoSoxFink]

WOW!  that is a great trade

 

[RedOctober3829]

Kuraly really shined in the USHL with Indiana before heading to Miami(OH).  Hasn't really put up the numbers in college as originally thought(only 29 pts in 40 games this year) but is still a good prospect.

And he has some size. 6'2 almost 210 pounds at the center position.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Dammit, I thought it was Mueller!

 

[BoSoxFink]

wait I said great trade because I thought it was Mueller........dammit

 

[j44thor]

So Sweeney must have someone else handling transactions in CA right?  
 
Basically fleeced LAK and SJ and yet bent over for PHI and CAL.  Just doesn't make any sense.

 

[kenneycb]

 

[RedSox040713]

Personally I call that trade a win just for the first. The prospect is an added bonus

Go back to New Hampshire, lawyer.

He's like a drunk in a bar fight, take a punch, throw a punch.

If you asked me what I thought we'd fetch for Looch at the start of the offseason, two firsts and two prospects would never have crossed my mind. Hell of a return. Don needed a win and it looks like he's got one.

Dale Arnold ‏@DaleEArnold  7m7 minutes ago
Return for @MilanLucicCFC17 now is two first round picks (2015 and 2016), Colin Miller and Sean Kuraly for @NHLBruins.

 

[RIFan]

Nice trade, even just for the 1st.  I'll sit back and wait for the gnashing of teeth 6 months from now when everyone is complaining that we should have held on to Jones and traded Rask or Subban.  Jones is going to be very good.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Personally I call that trade a win just for the first. The prospect is an added bonus

 
 
And it has a non-zero chance of being the top pick.  (but maybe so close to 0 you call it 0?)
