Re: Blues trade Fabbri
4His hair was just too beautiful for this world. Any insights on the new guy? His regular and fancy stats are both pretty brutal, but he's played on some pretty bad teams.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!
Re: Blues trade Fabbri
624 years old, 6’3” 215. 1 goal 3 assists in 16 games. Not sure if has any development left or skill or speed.

7Blues Acquire De La Rose From Red Wings
Writeup on Jacob De La Rose
It looks like De La Rose and Fabbri both have the same salary/cap hit, and are both RFA's next Summer.

9Sucks to think that the player that Fabbri used to be (and could have been) ended up being traded for what appears to be a spare part.Dave's a mess wrote: Wed Nov 06, 2019 10:23 pm His hair was just too beautiful for this world.

Of course, I thought that Ryan Reaves was traded for a pick and a spare part, and “spare part” Sundqvist may end up being the best player involved in that trade.
Wish Robby the best—as long as he’s not playing the Blues.

Re: Blues trade Fabbri
11I don’t know anything about De La Rose, but my guess is with his size he’s probably more suited to playing bottom-6 Berube hockey than Fabbri was going to be. That and I’m sure Fabbri wasn’t happy with never playing. Hopefully Fabbri gets to play with the Wings and can revitalize his career.
Re: Blues trade Fabbri
12who does he replace...mac mac, barbie, sunndy d, or ahl player?
I hope Snuggerud beats the shit out of Kyrou

All Fabbri had to do was outwork Sanford and he couldn't do that so good luck to him, I guess.
Re: Blues trade Fabbri
14My conspiracy theory take on this trade: Army intentionally acquired a player that will clear waivers for a player who wouldn’t have (in Fabbri) so that De La Rose can be sent down and Kostin called up.
Okay I’ll take off the tin foil hat now

Re: Blues trade Fabbri
16De La Rose looks to be a very low-scoring defensive forward (4th Liner). He's never scored much at all, at any level. Fabbri will have a lot more chance of making Detroit's regular lineup, once he gets comfortable.
Re: Blues trade Fabbri
17Sounds like De La Rose is a C too. Can never have too many of them. We could have a fourth line of 3 centers

I'm not upset about trading Fabbri but....I guess I expected ANYTHING more than this.

Re: Blues trade Fabbri
19If Steen is going to be out for awhile, Sunny D might move up in his place, and the new guy or Bortz goes to the 4th line.Ozzies09tc wrote: Wed Nov 06, 2019 10:39 pm who does he replace...mac mac, barbie, sunndy d, or ahl player?
Re: Blues trade Fabbri
20Best of luck to Fabbri but it appears that his injuries just resulted in way too much development time lost. He just looks absolutely clueless out there now. De a Rose seems like a good fit for Berube's system.

On March 19, 2019, de la Rose was sent to hospital with an accelerated heart beat. It was the second time during the season that he’d suffered such an episode. The previous event occurred during the 2018-19 NHL preseason while he was a member of the Montreal Canadiens. He was shut down for the remainder of the season following the second episode, and underwent a surgical procedure on his heart in April to correct the problem. He reported for training camp with the Red Wings in September 2019 - prepared to return to regular play.[2]

Re: Blues trade Fabbri
22Big guy. 6.3 215 shoots left. can play center. Skates really well from what I see in this video. (turn the sound off)
I'll take this trade. Fabs wasn't getting any playing time with us and De La Rose looks like he could play our style better than Fabs.
