Confirmation from trade buddy. Anton's down, too.

Confirmed.

Good quick talks buddy. You're #1.

[Nick]

BOOOMMMMM

new guy shakes it up. Good all round deal. Solid trade advisors keeping involved.

Nice trade

[kimmer]

I want backstrom badly

[bills09]

does he save cap in this deal ?

[Tony]

Desjardins for a 2nd, Aidan ... Mike will approve

[Mike]

does he save cap in this deal ?

Even with Gabe Bourque, who probably goes to the minors, he saves cap.

[Shep]

does he save cap in this deal ?

Yeah, about 1.3 mil with Bourque in the minors. About 750k with Bourque on the roster.

[Mike]

Desjardins for a 2nd, Aidan ... Mike will approve

He's getting wing eligibility in a few games... this offer will not last long!!!

More interest in player acquisition over cap saving purposes detected. Veto on this one.

Although i entirely agree with your suggestion of motives it doesnt seem veto worthy (if at all serious which i dont think you were)

I like it for shep though. Loui is almost as good as backstrom while being on an absolute bargain of a contract. Then add vermette who is an h2h beast. Wouldnt call it a bad trade value wise at all but bbkl wise i love it for shep.

Hopefully these shake ups keep coming. Adds some excitemment to a rather slow (recently bbkl)

[kimmer]

Lol. Its a solid trade. Shep still wins a bit. But i was just being a faggot. Dont wry about it.
