NJD trades: T.J Galiardi, Justin Abdelkader, paul Martin Stl trades: teemu selanne, Chris pronger, stl 4th rounder 2012
*commish we will put this through in yahoo in a few hours please don't push it through until AFTER tonights games.
** felt like I needed to get older! Lol. But really just bc I'm in 18th place doesn't mean I can't still try to make a comeback. With adding stastny yesterday and these guys I added some nice firepower to go along with my big guns whenever they get it going!

I accept.
I feel that this move helps my team get younger and sets up some nice future assets, while staying competitive for this season.

You ask me for Puempel and Shattenkirk for Selanne and a 3rd then you accept that? Wow.

Sorry Winnipeg, you declined my offer, but did not counter. New Jersey declined my 1st, and countered.

Is this trade a joke? All it does is help St. Louis get worse. None of the guys you are getting will ever be more than 3rd/4th line players. And Martin does nothing fantasy relevant. Not sure you were thinking straight on this one.

Trade really only makes sense if STL is looking to next year and thinks neither of those players will be playing, which could easily happen.

Pronger is not retiring, and even so. I'll admit I didn't counter before you accepted this, but you went from asking a TON from me to practically donating them. I like Galiardi but I think he'll be lucky to ever hit 45-50 points.

hmm... well it looks pretty likely that Selanne will retire, and Pronger is 37 and increasingly injury-prone... STL might've been able to get more, but got a couple of decent guys who are pretty young and could still hit their stride... NJ maybe wins the deal for now, but I don't think it's as far off as some seem to think...

I think this is the only thing I dislike about the league. Everyone values players differently so why does anyone feel that trashing a trade after the fact is worth it?
I hope the trade works out for you both!

I hope the trade works out for you both! I know what you mean, but I kinda like that aspect of the league... People can voice their opinions, and it's up to the people involved in the trade to be comfortable enough with their move to take the bashing with class...

But I don't see the point in airing the dirty laundry. Yes, I do agree with how people voicing their opinions is great, but why list all the players that was offered and compare it to what was actually in the trade (I personally think that part should be left out).
