This tells me that either Tocchet and him couldn’t get along, or the team and him didn’t get along. This also gives us some cap space to bring up other guys if Boesers out long term, without changing the amount of cap space we accrue. I would’ve liked a little more in return given his contract, but he hasn’t produced like we hoped. 
 

Edit:

 

UNLESS 

 

This is a precursor to another move to bring in a different forward, similar to moving Beauvillier to get Zadorov. It’s interesting though, the players I think we should be in on play for Seattle (Gourde, Tanev, Borgen). Very strange indeed.

We signed him to league min - the chance of a waiver claim was always there if he couldn’t fit the system. Which he didn’t.

I have a feeling this has something to do with brandstrom 10 games being up and needing to stay with the team or risk being put on waivers again ?

 

can someone tell me if this makes sense ?

3 points in 9 games is not terrible, but if he was about to be waived, we would have lost him anyway.
Getting FC's out of it, maybe marginally better than losing him for nothing.

Sprong was going to hit waivers on Joshua’s return anyways - this is good news 

Everyone's speculating, but I think this is the actual reason.

 

#1, I think this is good news that Joshua is likely about to return against Edmonton tomorrow

#2, I think this likely indicates that Boeser is okay and they only kept him out of the rest of the game last night as a precaution.

 

Sprong showed flashes, but he wasn't really fitting in. He needs to play offense and we don't have that opening for him.

I would love any of those 3 from Seattle
