BOS - TBL

[Chris (DET)]

Boston agrees to trade away Artemi Panarin

Tampa Bay agrees to trade away Vincent Trocheck and Travis Konecny

Simply put, I need help down the middle and buying a center in this league is like giving away a kidney or a first born. The chance to get a solid prospect like Konecny eased the pain.

TBL to confirm

[Luke (TBL)]

I confirm

Loosing two good young players for 1 isn't easy to swollow but I like the Russians and the upside Panarin brings

[Lester (VGK)]

i like this trade, goodjob men

[Trevor (Buf)]

Good work. Trading Panarin for a C was tough, I'm sure, but seems like fair deal in the end.

[Chris (DET)]

I had plenty of interest in Panarin, until I told the interested parties that my starting point was a good young center. It funny how quickly the conversations ended at that point.
