That was absolute robbery by the Rangers. Oh god I'm jizzing

Erixon is fucking good, Nash is too expensive, it's a meh trade for BJs but not that bad.
Rags' top six is terrifying now.
Two 3rd line centers a 1st rounder and our top d prospect for probably one of the top 10 wingers in the game? Done.
Maybe Slats was making the deal with a cigar in his mouth, so it was like "We want Nash, and we'll give you Dubinsky, Erixon, Bhagdte, Naksthus and a 1st rounder." Howson is now reading TSN like "shit, I totally heard that as Gaborik, Dubinsky, Girardi, Richards, MDZ and McDonaugh."
I like Ani, but he's so god damn inconsistent and his development has stagnated.
Dubi will boucne back in Columbus but we couldn't afford to have a 4.2 mil 30 point player on our roster if we're trying to contend next year.
I'll miss Erixon the most, I think he's gonna develop nicely.
But all that for 5 years of Nash in his prime? SATHER DOES IT AGAIN!

So this is the plentiful return that Howson was holding out for? Son, you got robbed.
And we didnt have to trade Stepan. Unfff so hard right now
Deep breaths buddy.
For CBJ fans, I hope this is true and the trade has yet to go through.
@BobMckenzie : BTW, the Rick Nash trade to NYR is not yet official as the trade call has not yet been done.
Being a non-rangers steal this seems like a steal. Lol. Doan needs to come to Vancouver now.
If anyone thought they were giving up Erixon and Kreider/Stepan/Hagelin, that was never going to happen. Howson did the deal he could, there was ABSOLUTELY NO WAY Nash was coming back to CBJ. Don't hate Howson just because NYR got better.
It's funny because he held off for so long hoping to get something awesome. He probably got what he did because he waited. Had he made the trade when people were throwing offers at him during the first week of free agency, he would have gotten a lot more.
Also, I am laughing so hard at the people who think Nash-Richards-Gaborik will be a line
We also get a minor league D-man and a 3rd.
Nash is way overrated, but the Rangers didn't give up any pieces that are even close to essential.
But if you consider that Howson is also removed with this deal, it will probably be a net positive for the BJs.
We got a 3rd rounder in the deal too...lol Thanks scott. Youre a true bro
Rangers aren't just getting Nash.....They're getting a 3rd round pick + and d man in return as well....fucking steal....its like Gomez all over again!
