So we all good with Chicago loading up now?!

If he wasn't going to be re signed by tampa, why not get a pick for his UFA rights?

Hand them the Cup

Lol

Don't really understand why CHI needs to pay (low cost obviously) for an extra 48 hours to negotiate with a 38 year old.

So we heard the Tampa Bay Rangers jokes years ago.
If there was any doubt before, we now have the Chicago Lightning.

Protects bedard? Fair trade

That's exactly what Tampa got for Goodrow's signing rights.

A 7th round pick.

Fair deal.

Tampa gets an asset for someone who they weren't going to resign.

Chicago gets 2 extra days of negotiating with a player they want for basically nothing.

Fair deal

Corey Perry is interested in joining Chicago? That’s news to me.

That sums it up perfectly. They did the same with Foligno and were able to sign him, so why not try again?

I wonder if how all these veterans feel about the chance to play with Bedard. Will he bring back their youthful enthusiasm?

Good luck scorey except 2 games next year

Well, we don't know yet is he. If signs with them, then we'll know.

I have a hard time believing that Perry has any intention of signing with Chicago.

Guy has been off cup chasing for the last 4 years, even with Bedard, Chicago is no where near competing.

Fair deal I guess. Chicago could’ve just waited a few days though, so I guess Tampa wins.

its a 1 day trade.... for draft pick

Perry had a no-trade clause, which I assume is still in effect until July 1, so I guess he would have had to waive it for them to be able to make this trade. I don't know why he'd want to go there at this stage in his career, but if my assumption is correct, he must at least be interested in listening to what they have to say.

Pulled this out of Writz’s time machine to 2015
