You won't give up on this will you :P

Do not say that. This would be devastating. He's our future cup winning goaltender IMO.

I'm conflicted. This is exactly what I want but I don't want it to affect the young core. I don't need them getting use to losing.

So is someone changing an avatar or what?

Interesting take. So what do we think of Vatanen? I've heard he's having a down year and I believe was a healthy scratch in a game last month. He's 25 years old with 2 goals and 16 assists on the year. Former 4th round pick but plays 22 minutes on a good team. What kind of guys would be going the other way to make this deal work?

What a season

:w00t:

How come nobody came to check on me?!?!?!?!??! I've been passed out for two days and only got through the first two pages!

Thanks for the chart, that was great work. I don't like DD and I think this team should be better then where they are right now. But visually, this does show that we've improved from last year and back flirting with the playoffs. Pretty much where many expected us to be. I hate using injuries as an excuse but if Eichel doesn't get hurt maybe we're 4 or 5 points better and really in this thing. With all the ups and downs it's good seeing a long term visual on their progress.

Sure it was :lol:

As an update. Here is an update on how each player has done statistically since the trade ROR - 118GP 33G 63A 96Pts Zads - 75GP 0G 12A 12Pts Grigs - 125GP 12G 33A 45Pts The other pieces included 31st overall pick and Compher for McGinn.

Zadorov - 0G 10A in 53GP. Pi will like this, he's a -18.

Nice!! Good luck boys. Think I'm calling d4rk the heavy favorite for this one. But you never know.

I forgot about Grigs. They have Zads too don't they? What paring is he on I wonder?

I trade Kane straight up in a heartbeat. I've liked Kane's game the past month but he's one off-ice issue away from having zero trade value. Also, I feel like we have an abundance (ok wrong word) but more talent on forward then on D. I'm willing to balance that somewhat with a trade like this.

I'd be shocked if Marty had any inside knowledge of this. Speculation IMO.

Too early for trade rumors?

I thought they played tonight. Then couldn't find a GDT a half hour ago so thought I was mistaken. Wow things are not good.....

I'm going to re-read this thread and take a shot everytime I read 'system' or 'systems.' Wish me luck :beer:

Interesting take. Good points.

Yes. By the way, love the avatar.

Just fired their long time coach. GM knows it's on him now. I could easily see a big move like this coming.

Yep it's got to be Eich. DD has to go before this thing blows up.

I love Sam Reinhart. Completely disagree with Bucky that the team will be contender status when Sam is in the bottom 6. The forwards have so much potential. The D and coaching is holding this team back.
