Rumours coming on the deal..

intertesting.

[Media]

TSN Dreger has Backstrom being on the move,


NHL insider Bob McKenzie says it's either Hanzal or Hornqvist..



Could be also worth noting that Eklund pulled a e5 on Sullivan to NJ earlier in the day.

[Shep]

I wonder what is going to Nashville then.

I mean, I'm happy with the deal.. but I paid a lot. But you've gotta pay for young talent and I had the parts to do so! Mik is gonna be a real solid GM..

Confirmed.

I realize there were GMs offering much better current value.. but i like Goncharov's potential, he is the real wildcard in this trade and somehow makes it worth for me.
If he stays in N.A. (i always thought he is better suited for the N.A. game and rinks anyway) and i'm able to hit something with one of those picks, i feel like i can really build off this deal.

Otherwise i'll lose it, but still with something to show for it, as Glencross and Larose are not oldies after all.

I agree completely, Maxim Goncharov is a young future top pairing defenceman that not alot of people know about. He's big and he uses his size to his advantage as demonstrated by his play in the WJC last year, and his defensive prowess in the KHL. Combine that with a strong hockey IQ and one of the hardest shots from the point, and you have a very good piece with which to build your bleuline around. I'm a very big fan of this deal from Nashville's POV, as well as NJ who needed the goal scoring punch of Patrik Horqvist.

I agree, any GM who targets a prospect like Maxim Goncharov clearly know's their hockey. He's not a big name, but those who have seen him play, or followed him throughout his career know what type of impact he can have at the next level.
