    Canucks had a pretty solid tandem in place not sure why they would make this deal .

    A 3rd round for Desmith???? I was expecting a 6th at best

    Not the fans, that’s for sure.

    Why does someone have to « win » a trade? Both teams get what they want

    Montreal. They get another decently high pick, get rid of a goalie when they had too many, Pearson contract will expire before that team is ready to win. Side note happy to see Pearson get a fresh start. Canucks got a career backup with injury history and had to pay a third to dump one of their numerous wingers

  6. Contrarian_Eh

    I totally missed the part where DeSmith was traded to Montreal.

    I think both teams come out of this looking pretty good IMO.

    Canucks needed to shed salary to get under the cap and needed a better backup than Martin, but don’t want to tie up money past this next season. Check, check, check.

    Montreal gets Pearson, who looked like he still had a lot of tread left on the tires before in the injury (so some risk there), but if he doesn’t work out, his contract is up after this season. And they get a draft pick.

    Both teams dealt from excess. I think it’s a win all around.

    How can there be a winner when no one has played a game for their new teams yet?

  9. Montreal won for the players and pick. I think Canucks are fine with that in order to free up cap space.

    Pretty square trade. Montreal benefits more for the future, so if you need to call a winner I’d lean that way. Canucks fans won’t be too pressed over it

  11. ice_nyne

    Haha, he thinks there’s a winner

    Weren’t we complaining not one draft ago about giving away our potential prospects? A third seems a little high so I think MTL takes this one by a short margin.

    I vote for the team that came out of the trade without DeSmith.

  14. therealHankBain

    All that I can say is that I guess I jumped the gun on getting that DeSmith jersey

    Vancouver just got the best Disc Golfer in the league! What a steal.

    I’d be worried about Pearson…. After having multiple “failed” surgeries on his hand, I’d be concerned that he developed CRPS. That’s something I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy or even Brad Marchand. I don’t think he’ll have the hands Mtl is expecting. Also Canucks twitter seems to be blowing up about another pick in a deep draft, but come on… Rutherford got to trade Pearson again.

    Nice to see Pearson is actually finally healthy.

  18. Dillygaf25

    Well, DeSmith sucked so I say the Pens won

  19. HockeyGoalieEh

    The team that didn’t acquire one of the grossest abusers in the league.

  20. zivlynsbane

    They should trade price away. He’s burning a whole in their pockets.
