pretty fair if u ask me

Schenn for Richards
1 year of Alfie for Tinordi

[anton]

im less pissed about the actual value and more pissed about how it makes you stronger and me weaker this season

[Nick]

I dunno about fair, Schenn <-> Richards is fair, I'd actually rather Schenn just due to his cap value. But Alfie could be epic in Det, and that's worth more than Tinordi.

Can def see why you did it.

[anton]

i was 6 mill + over the cap. severely handicapped in negotiations. i feel like i maximized the value as much as i could, but its a clear loss for me in the short term.

[The BBKL Insider]

ironically enough, taking loses in deals (see oshie trade) doesn't always hurt when you can take cap in another deal.

[KapG]

Like this for anton long term. Not terrible zhort term either

[Robin Hood]

I think you did fine Anton. Alfy sucks at 5.5 and 1 year left. M rich is better than schenn but sometimes you have to take the hit.

[anton]

i actually think alfie is gonna rip it up with DET, but you're right. huge ?s past this season

[MSP4LYFE]

I'd rather have Tinordi than one year of Alfredsson personally.

[anton]

did alfie come out and say this was his final year? i legitimately dont know but everyone seems to be assuming it is?

[The BBKL Insider]

Anton did really fine

Tinrodi for a year of Alfie is worth it to me for the simple fact i'm going all in this year.


and hey - guys are gonna need player, i just added more to my active lineup...my minors is getting pretty filled up with waiver exempt guys. I'll be open for business for those of you who need players soon enough - which means now.

Prediction : alfie will be injured (broken balls) and out season after 2 regular season games

[The BBKL Insider]

2 games of alfie is not worth tinordi

Paul is now on my "do not trade block"

[kyuss]

I think it's Jarred.

Other than that, the deal looks bad for CHI at first glance, but not so much when you actually think about it
