That's what Lindback got? Holy Jumpin. Talk about a lot for nothing.

Portzline reporting its #45, a 2012 pick and a 2013 pick


Great haul. #45 is about to be passed to someone...Phoenix?

with bob heading to columbus now, i think burke will pull the plug for bobby lu, if the asking price is too high he'll just roll with reimer/scrivens

I would think the picks they're getting are going to be used in a trade to a team that didn't have much of an interest in Bob.

Great job by Paul Holmgren.

Scott Howson is an embarrassment. I feel bad for Columbus fans. What a stretch of horrible management they've had to put up with.

2012 pick
2013 pick

Or that Raycroft was 29-18-9 with a .926?

@DarrenDreger report of #CBJ trade for G Sergei Bobrovsky. Three draft picks going to Flyers, including No. 45 this year.

interesting three draft picks

Steve Mason has only 2 years of a winning record while Bobrvosky has 2 years. If anyone thinks that he is bad then they gotta lay of the crack. He is 23 with a 42 23 10 record, 2.73 GAA and .909%

Good trade for Columbus. Don't know how it benefits Flyers though. Hopefully this gets the ball rolling.

[Tyskie]

I guess that takes out any Ottawa goalies in a trade for Nash.

I hope.

[Shellz]

Really, Jackets? Laughable. Ouch.

Agree, fully.

Worst GM in recent memory.

[Peter Griffin]

Oh lol. With the "news" that Burke is willing to part with a significant asset for Luongo my guess is that Leafs' fans are going to be surprised with what Burke ends up paying for a goaltender. Completely unproven back-ups and goaltenders that have stunk are going for good returns.

That's not a very good record for the quality of team he' on... just saying...

[Jonathan.]

Howson is such a laughably bad GM.

The 2nd is not an insignificant asset, and Bob, without the bonus cushion, was an expensive backup ($1.75 million cap hit)

[Macch]

Don't understand why CBJ would EVER do another deal with PHI

True, but Mason's rookie year was more dominant than Bobs. Playoffs were equally as bad though. At this point, the Blue Jackets would kill to flip Mason for a 5th or a 7th, LOL.

You mean besides the picks and the cap space gained from an expensive backup goalie?

[Shark Staal]

I like Bobrovsky, and I like this trade for both teams to be honest.
