Well played Sheary

It would be useless anyways. He's pretty set on playing in NYC or Florida

Starting to worry yet?

No Reinhart? No Mittelstadt?

Pretty sure he has a girlfriend already, sorry guys

There is no magic formula for developing a QB. There are so many examples of those that waited and succeeded and those that started right away and did too. The QB is by far the most unknown and volitaile position I sports. We all know nothing; either he's good or he's not

Playing them 8 times, bound to lose at least one of them

Hot damn, I was way off on those conditionals. Those are some big 'what if's' in there

Victory

Conditionals are almost always a 4th to a 3rd or some garbage like that. I would bet one of them involves a 5th round pick I think for the Stars though, it came down to Heiskanen, and that was a no go Lightning the writing was on the wall once Yzerman left, and the Knights knew it and went and got Pacioretty anyways.

This is actually really, really good news for us then. The 2019 draft is supposed to be loaded, and now we have 3 first round picks for it

You know what's insane about all this? Ottawa traded Hoffman to SJ who went right away and traded him to Florida for a better return. So what does Dorion and Ottawa do? They call San Jose right the fck back up and get shanked again. Unreal

So who's is it then? Not that SJ is going to miss the playoffs anyways

Going to be real interesting to see if this comes with an extension Included it in the opening post ?

Ottawa had 0 leverage. This is what they get

They do but not those deals. Those are long term deals for big money. Plus if you're getting Karlsson, you want to win now, and Burns and Couture are pivotal for that

Definitely deserves it's own thread. It's officially official @PierreVLeBrun Told that the official trade call was just completed. Erik Karlsson has been traded to the San Jose Sharks @SunGarrioch Sources say the #Sens have dealt Erik Karlsson to the Sharks in exchange for Chris Tierney, Dylan DeMelo, Josh Norris, Rudolfs Balcers, 2020 1st, 2019 2nd and two conditional picks.

The Senators don't want either of them, and Couture just signed a long term extension this summer

I'm too excited for this

Don't give Flagg an out here, I know that he thought what PI thinks

He's talking about Matthews. He's been vocal that Eichel did his contract to afford the team cap to win a Cup

But it's not quitting. If it was quitting, he wouldn't be working there anymore, which he easily could have done. He has no obligation to get a 1 year supervisory contract. So let's he didn't switch roles and played out his last year as GM. Then they throw, BriseBois in there with no experience, alone, and say good luck as Yzerman leaves. Or, they let Yzerman switch roles, and now he can help BriseBois transition.

Long term money is what Melnyk doesn't want. He'll take short cap hits left and right Wonder if Ryan is still a demand by Ottawa or not too Maybe he wants Karlsson? I have a feeling Seguin just wants to win at this point

Remember, Ottawa doesn't have any leverage here, and their owner wants no money coming back. Granted I don't know any of the players you listed, but that's the position Ottawa is working from
