Only one way to tell and that's not with the naked eye - so go ahead and eat.

Spotrac has Nelson listed as a RFA. With Reinhart, thought any offer extended is termed a qualifying offer.

Could be that the pizza oven is about 700° ? I'm constantly asking anyone at Moes, Chipotle, Qdoba to change their gloves as all of their workers seem not to mind touching your food with the same gloves they just wiped the counter down with or picked up food off the floor.

Should be gone - Gorges / Lehner / Johnson / Nolan Qualify - Reinhart / Nelson / maybe Wilson / maybe Antipin Resign - maybe Pouliot / Falk Trade - Larsson / Beaulieu / maybe Girgenson Shop for - #1 defense pair / #1 goaltender Pominville to the 4th line or make a Moulson like move

Lightning over Jets

Couple of predictions http://buffalonews.com/2018/02/24/cbs-analyst-predicts-tyrod-taylor-to-broncos-cordy-glenn-to-giants/

Bogo will rebound nicely next year.

Just listened to GMJB's presser ... man is he uncomfortable in front of the media.

Have you looked at the West standings ? San Jose is no lock to even make the playoffs as they're only 2 up on 8th now. They paid for 19 games.

Why would you move either of them as they can be part of the core moving forward ? Best face off guy around having a decent season and Reinhart finding his game.

Sounds like SJ might wanna resign Kane ... https://twitter.com/KKurzNHL/status/968231471356952576

Who was gonna take any of the guys listed above ? Healthy scratches are not a best seller at the deadline. We already knew there was no interest in Lehner.

Because this season is shot and we can sign or trade for an equivalent or better UFA on 7/1

Actually it would've shown stupidity as no team would trade for Kane's rights before 7/1 knowing he's an UFA.

A voice of reason

Oh OK ... if GMJB didn't take the best deal, fine. But if he didn't deal Kane and Kane doesn't resign with us, I'd like to see your posts come 7/1. Kane didn't exactly help himself over the past month and I'm sure the other 31 GMs have more info than us.

Winner winner chicken dinner !

I have no idea and am willing to wait for GMJB's presser. Maybe Kane is the locker room cancer ?

Listen to you guys ... you'd think you were in the room and heard GMJB turned down better offers. Guaranteed there were none.

Probably the best other offers included a guaranteed 2nd and not a conditional 1st.

Seriously ? You think the Penguins would have moved Crosby or Malkin at the deadline a few years back ? You never know if moving a player "helps the team", but it's pretty obvious that moving some would not.

If we're not better on paper at the start of the 2018-19 season than today, I don't think we'll really know. Get Phil some more talent.

None of them hopefully - identify the core and keep them together.

I have an issue with the thought of moving anyone to get better. How are you ever gonna build a core of guys that can play together year after year if everyone could be moved at any time ? I'd rather see Jack, ROR, Risto, Reinhart, ERod, Nelson, Guhle, and possibly McCabe together for 3-4 years and replace the rest over time. Also, what kind of message does it send to prospective UFAs that might want to come here if the guys you wanted to play with might be gone ?

Lol, maybe not but the rest is enough to make him #1
