Twitter was buzzin’ on Trade Deadline day, as teams made their final moves with the hopes of gearing up for a cup run, or rebuilding for the future. It wasn’t the most exciting day we’ve seen but it didn’t finish without some eye-opening moves, the biggest coming from… The Prudential Center.
Forget the actual players getting dealt. A way bigger transaction took place between The Devils’ Arena and the Barclays Center. In the heart of all the action, the facility’s Twitter account announced it had traded a printer, yes, a printer (crazy asset) in exchange for four coffee machines and a “wide variety” of K-Cups. Upon review, we kind of think the Prudential Center won the trade but hey, everyone’s entitled to their own opinion.
We’re still waiting for that Press Conference!
Honestly, it’s all about the coffee. Sure… printers are important. But everyone just does everything digitally now and it’s more important to prioritize the needs of the workers. How is anyone supposed to work without coffee for crying out loud?! Think of all the money employees will save now that they don’t have to spend $4 on an expensive one somewhere else?! Besides, the Barclays Center figured fans could use a caffeine boost.
In smaller news, the Islanders did make a big splash when they acquired Jean-Gabriel Pageau for a 1st, 2nd and 3rd round draft pick. But obviously the printer will make more of a splash on the fan base, even though he signed a six-year extension right after.
Gotta love #TradeCentre, baby.
