    Blue Jackets: worst moment was getting fleeced by Flyers
    Flyers: worst move was getting fleeced by Blue Jackets

    • @honoratagold
      @honoratagold Před 3 lety +6

      With the added factor that the initial Carter-Voracek trade was one of several moves that allowed the Flyers to sign Bryzgalov as a free agent, which was a huge part of why they ended up moving Bobrovsky. (AND that these trades were made when the Jackets were still in the Western Conference, but almost immediately afterward the division were realigned and the Flyers and Jackets ended up in the same division. Just to rub salt in everyone's wounds about it.)

      @@honoratagold They moved bob because it became public knowledge that he won't be resigning with the Flyers due to the Bryz contract (the owner told the then GM to get a top goalie no matter the cost cuz they lost in the playoffs due to shaky goaltending, hence Bryz). He didn't see a path to being that #1 with them. When that news broke, his stock plummeted and the Flyers had no leverage anymore. They got what they could. It seemed that the Flyers intention was to ride Bryz while Bob develops, then trade one...big uuf there.
      To extend the tree, the two eventually made another trade, sending Steve Mason to Philly, who ended up playing decent for them for a few years until concussions killed his career.

      Chiarelli got us the cup tho. That pick they traded away was for Adam McQuaid, who was a great player in the 2011 playoff run and his contribution helped us get past Montreal in game 7. Horton or Seguin had to go and the more proven player was Horton who was also needed in the cup run, getting the game winner in game 7 vs Montreal and Tampa. But I’ll admit he could have gotten much more from Thornton, but his other decisions were justified at the time

    Vegas used him in the Pacioretty trade that offseason, but at that point his trade value was so low he was basically a throw in. To make matters even worse though, Tatar posted his best seasons since leaving Vegas. 58 pts in 80 games in 2019, and 61 pts in 68 games in 2020.

As would any othert GM who had the genius insight. But no, Tampa thought he was good value at 19 and got a steal. If they had some magical insight they'd have desperately traded that pick up a few spots to make sure they didn't miss him.

      This is kind of the thing, isn't it? Moving over to the NFL for a second, the Cleveland Browns entered the 2014 draft with the #4 and #26 pick. They traded down the #4 and ended up with an extra first rounder the following year, good move. Johnny Manziel was highly rated by a lot of (not all) people and if they had drafted him 26th instead of giving up a 3rd rounder to draft him 22nd, they would have faced not half the criticisim in the coming years. Or missed out on him and had Carr or Bridgewater fall in their lap, making them look smarter than they probably were.

    The Wild’s biggest slip up is actually trading for Hanzal at the deadline in 2017. A few games before the trade, Jonathan Toews lit up Minnesota and GM Chuck Fletcher made it a priority to target a shutdown center to go up against the Toews line. ( This was of course, if the two teams met in the 2nd round. At the time, they were 1 and 2 respectively in the conference.) The Wild were 1st and after the deadline pickup, they started to sink. Hanzal was horrible for the Wild, it messed with everything and then they obviously couldn’t fix it, losing in round 1. I think about that year a lot looool

I understand when your team wins 3 stanley cups in 6 years you want to keep your star players as happy as possible but you should do it smartly. I mean of course star players did major job to win those cups, but what was great about that chicago, is that they always had good depth players in all 3 cup runs. but after 2015 chicago gave too many huge contracts to their star players and it backfired because they no longer have room for depth players.

He then pushed off extensions and allowed himself to slip into free agency and signed with the Leafs. It’s not that the Islanders didn’t want to get nothing for him, but more that there wasn’t an expectation we’d lose him until July 1 creeped closer and closer and no new contract was signed.

    i was kind of meh about the Skinner trade too at the time, but the current outlook for Carolina is more optimistic. Those draft picks gave them Pyotr Kochetkov (hotshot rookie G) and Alex Nikishin (a top d-men in the KHL at 21 years old). If Carolina can pry Kikishin from St Petersburg, that trade will turn into a definite win for Carolina.
    Just realized that this video is 2 years old. So given that, I'd say the worst move is a tie between signing Bill Peters and drafting Noah Hanifin over Mikko Rantanen in 2015. Imagine if they had drafted Aho AND Rantanen that year. Yikes.

    As a Bruins fan I dream of a team with Seguin Barzal Chabot and Boeser wouldn’t be able to keep them all but I wish that was a problem we had right now!
