Worse trade you made recently (just for fun)

[ross10019]

Yeah, but where's it gotten him? nowhere!
Whereas we've got the hardware!
(the royal we, that is...)

Actually, you didn't reaaaly lose that trade.... Kaberle and st Louis are no slouches, and you traded Marty for something good, if I recall

No, I lost that trade, I did turn StLouis into Nash basically, and then eventually Nash brought me Lundqvist and MRichards, and I still have Kaberle, but all in all I'd rather have Backstrom and Perry back. Imagine if my 9 keeper forwards were Getzlaf/Thornton/Backstrom/MRichards at C and Perry/Gaborik/Hossa/Horton/Eriksson at W!!

Ian's trades for Toews and Crosby haven't gotten him anywhere because, last year, when he had the chance to pick up Jon Quick as his 2nd goalie (behind Rinne) for a 3RD ROUNDER , he held out to try to reduce the price to a 4TH ROUNDER!! Otherwise, he would probably have beat you in the conference semifinals if he had Quick.

On that note, you beat me in the conference finals by an a-hole hair due to Luongo's stellar 40+ save performance in Detroit the final night of our series, ironic that your Canucks would have won the Cup by an a-hole hair if Luongo had played half decent in Game 7.

Yeah yeah, same thing over and over, but if the team scores 8 goals in 7 games im not sure how much you can blame the goalie

There were a lot of what ifs ....such as you wouldn't have been in it if Getzlaf hadn't put up an outrageous 6BS performance ....

if ifs and buts were candy and nuts....

You are right my friend, I'll just have to beat you on the playing surface this coming year so that I can win back some bragging rights!

PS Luongo sucks big hairy moose balls.

Disparaging your country's gold medal winning keeper, for shame
How's the vertigo coming with your Swiss cheese keeper?


Ps, I have not begun the most annoying phase of the bragging ....wait until the season begins!

I can't wait.

$50 says Hiller ends 2011/12 with more Ws than Luongo!

PS He WAS our country's Olympic gold medal winning keeper, but he'll never be our country's Olympic starter again!

backstorm(g) 4 savard and a 3rd. i thought savard would come back at the start of last last season and rip it up but missed basically the first half of the season and got tko again

[ove_is_god8]

ouch, those are both pretty bad


conversely, my best trade ever was trading Zajac and Theodore for Parise and Osgood

[jayz16]

Worst ever= both Sedins for Malkin 2 yrs ago... Sigh

Worst recently (more unlucky than bad) = Vanek for Perron and a 4th, 2 games before Big Joe demolished him.

I get unlucky more often than not!

It doesn't compare to most of the trades in this thread, but my most annoying trade made recently was me sending PK Subban for TJ Oshie.

I have Fowler and Shattenkirk, and I still had big hopes for Thomas Hickey, so I thought I was pretty set for high-end defensemen. I needed help at forward and totally overrated Oshie. I ended up dealing Oshie for a package including the 5th overall in 2011, which I then traded to 3rd and got Ryan Strome.

In the end it hurts a little less since it comes out to practically Subban for Strome. It's still the trade that makes me most sick though.

I sent Ennis Sharp St.Louis Rinne Backstrom(goalie) huddler and Neilson.

For. Ovechkin, Howard, Hodgson, Bickell.

I dealt Ov to win last year and I just had to have him back. I guess this is the price you pay!
