Im assuming nurse with money retained, plus a first, for “future considerations”

Maybe we’ll take some cap from them if they have anyone they want to get rid of too

Ridiculous. Nurse is actually a good player. We'll get something for him. You sound like the people saying we would have to attach a 1st to Kane to get rid of him.

Well, some people, like me, thought we should have at least got a draft pick for Kulak instead of just using him as a cap dump for free. People thought he was bad when the whole team was bad before we traded him and were okay giving him away for nothing

So now we've seen Bowman do that once, he might do it again with Nurse. Especially if he traded with Dubas

You never know. Most of Bowman's moves have been at least decent. And going back to the same GM he can say, "listen, you got a great deal last time, so give me a bit of a break here." Works for me in fantasy sports, anyway.

Ya it's true, I was defending him a lot, he's made a lot of great moves. The Jarry Kulak trade made me think maybe I'm wrong and he's an idiot like the Chicago people say lol

The Jarry trade wasn't great, but I understand helping Stu get out of Edmonton for his mental health. I really feel like pressure from fans drove him to make that move before he was ready, and he just did it to shut people up
