  1. If that 1st isn't lotto protected this trade is a lot better. I doubt it, but its possible.
  2. Instigators definitely said he had time on his contract today in the 3 minutes I listened to them. Sounds like that was a mistake, as usual.
  3. Nash has time left on his contract, Kaner is a rental.
  4. Just noticed its a 2019 first as well. Wonder if its lotto protected.
  5. I'm betting that's one of the conditions.
  6. Give me those 2009 Jim Rome throwback references.
  7. I have no idea what this means because expectations have been so all over the board recently.
  8. Jack Johnson probably going then, right?
  9. While race is certainly not the only issue with Kane I think it definitely amplifies it. Kane didn't even have any legal troubles until getting to Buffalo; there were some locker room things and obviously he liked the night life a bit more that your average hockey guy would let on, but no one EVER questioned how hard he played when he was on the ice. Then he comes here and gets into some that was entirely his fault and people go "oh, well of COURSE". Patrick Kane was accused of rape, beat up a cabbie over change, is/was clearly an alchoholic, and was out constantly, but if the Hawks ever decided to trade him I don't think that would ever come in the discussion. P. Kane is a better player, obviously, but still. The problem is that black players, especially in a league as pasty as the NHL, have to hold themselves to a higher standard because when they screw up its all anyone will talk about any more, where as white dudes are going to get the benefit of the doubt from the media.
  10. Quick! Buy a Kane jersey!
  11. Yeah, that definitely seems like positioning from one of the GMs vying for him. New GM is gonna get tested; lets see your poker face JBot.
  12. What a freaking game. Can't believe that just happened. 5 wins in a row.
  13. Dude is just in a totally different head-space than any other time I've watched him. Riding this wave of confidence.
  14. Schuster winning hearts and minds out there with that last shot.
  15. This has been a great match so far.
  16. This Karlsson trade could get wacky. Travis Yost is saying OTT and TBL may be trying to involve 4 teams in a single trade (OTT,TBL, and two others), probably as a way to hide that Bobby Ryan contract.
  17. I want a guy who wants to come back, that's for sure. Should probably trade him IMO
  18. To me Jbot should reasonably be able to go to another GM and say "they gave THAT for Grabner, so you have to go higher than that". 1st and a decent prospect seems doable.
  19. Kane should bring more than Grabner, no?
  20. I watched the last 10 minutes of the CAN-GER game today when I heard Germany was up, I also caught the last 10 minutes of the Slovakia-Slovenia game the other day for no particular reason, thats about it for the Mens tournament for me. Watched the Women's gold medal game, too. Not much Hockey for me this year. Been watching most of them US Men's curling and caught a few other matches both men's and women's, but I've always dug that sport. The fact that I play it now makes me appreciate it even more.
  21. GERMANY WINS! NO GOLD FOR CANADA! No gold medals for Canada in either Men's/Women's Hockey NOR either Curling (they did win the mixed doubles, though)
  22. Jack, seriously, don't rush back. Just take the rest of the season.
  23. BREAKING: John Schuster learned how to curl about halfway through that first match, vs Canada apparently. Dude has been fire since then.
