@PierreVLeBrun The Blues are still interested in ROR; to some degree the Habs as well among other teams. The Sabres' believed ask of a 1st, 2nd and top prospect or young player still too rich for some ... Teams don't think ROR will be dealt once bonus is paid by Sabres

I got a bottle of Jameo and MXC on I can't keep track of things right now

I was right about Stamkos!

Well, it would appear Tavares is leaving as he still hasn't given word. I regret nothing

So much for all our worry, good call Brawndo. Paging Flagg to the unsubstantiated rumor mill

I agree with that.

I'm not arguing the level of play falls off, that's obvious. But no team has a core of players all within 1 year of each other

No the transitive property does not apply here Hoss just listed the Islanders players in the same competitive window. 2 year age difference is not big in terms of a competition window

Seriously? A 27 and a 29 year old are in the same competitive window

Mean JVR just turned 29 in May. That's close enough

Look at how Derrico spelled it ;)

I'll critisis all I want dammit That website is so infuriating :lol: The bold makes me value that stat a lot less

Blink twice if she's behind you

Hahah I was shocked cause I had always thought of him as a speedy winger. Turns out after reading some more he's basically Vanek

God dammit Baby steps for Charlie. Baby steps Some dude on reddit claims JVR had the highest expected goal rate out of anyone last year? He of course has nothing to back this up, and I can't find anything. Anyone know where that information is?

Heavy money doesn't bother me, it's the term that would ask me to pass the icicle after you're done with that btw props to me for spelling icicle right on the first try

Is JVR slow? That makes me actually hate this then RoR is the same age. And we just got fast Sheary for Eichel. We'd need a center for JVR if we invest that much into him

It's odd that analytics darling Chayka wants him too. Also, I feel like if we sign him for big money and term, we're keeping RoR, no?

Why does this feel like Okposo 2.0 is about to happen? So much for Botterill and saying he doesn't wanna build a team through FA

@NHLJets The #NHLJets have acquired Nicolas Kerdiles from the @AnaheimDucks in exchange for Chase De Leo. @TheFourthPeriod The SJ Sharks and Logan Couture have finalized an eight-year, $64M contract extension. Done deal, to be officially official tomorrow.

Hmmm guess I pegged them a lot younger. Good call That Ladd deal is still awful

Not a full rebuild. But like us RoR doesn't fit their age group

Why wouldn't they have any interest in a rebuild? Granted maybe not a full one, but to build around their young core. Lou just did the same thing in Toronto, and Trotz has a 5 year extension. They're in it for the long haul

If they lose Tavares their strategy moving forward has to be considerably changed. They go from trying to contend to full rebuild very fast. They'll build around their younger guys like we are now; they won't want RoR

Think you have a little bias going here ;) France would dominate Croatia if they played
