  1. Well it is basically the 4 firsts for an allstar price tag that the NHL set for offer sheets way back. It's kind of the standard. You have to hand it to Minnesota for going for it. There's a team that knows they have to be better now to get out of that "group of death" (using the World Cup term). It's likely an overpay if they don't sign him to an extension, but if they do, he's the best player in the deal and thus they win the deal. Isn't that the rule? idk, let's ask Eichel or Reinhart 🙂 All I can say for sure is "The Hockey Guy" (who is a Canucks fan) is really really not happy.
  2. I hear you, as they have the most upside, but you have to realize that's essentially rolling with 2 rookies or unproven players. We'd all like Levi to become the guy but right now he's still just an AHL guy. It's very very risky. I'd still like to see an established vet in there and then whichever of Levi or Ellis is better wins the other spot. If they both outplay the vet then so be it.
  3. It's a desperation move for Edmonton but I suppose they are hoping they get a good run out of the veteran goalie much like Colorado got when they swapped out theirs.
  4. I saw this all over twitter but so far no actual nothing. Sure hope it's true. I've been hoping since Jarmo was hired that Terry was letting him assess the roster and the whole franchise. Kev was just a handcuffed lame duck pushing paperwork around and doing Terry's bidding but not really allowed to do much of anything. That scenario might also explain the goalie inactions. In any event long overdue but we shall see if it actually happens and who takes over.
  5. Not a cop out. I just can't be bothered with long involved plans of what they should do at this stage. If Pegula doesn't make changes nothing will change so all of our hopes and wishes and plans of what should be done are a waste of time. They won't do any of them.
  6. As I understand it he stopped drinking, went to therapy and cleaned himself up. He's still married. They apparently worked it out so he does still have some sort of family life. The internet says his net worth is 22.5 million.
  7. That pretty much was it but they didn't give him many minutes that's for sure. I thought you could see signs of him wanting to muck it up but he didn't get enough time to get comfortable or into a rhythm.
  8. Dumpster fire meets toxic waste dump tank team. Dumpster fire gets the win. I like wins but you have to think a losing streak would be better to force Pegula's hand. Any signs of life (which are fake because this season is over) and they might justify staying the course and blaming injuries. If only..................etc. Terrible hockey game. Canucks are garbage. Sabres had all the same turnovers and giveaways but Canucks didn't take advantage of most of them. I really cannot figure out why some people think Byram is a good D man. He is just horrible. How many minutes did Kuntar get? Can't be many. They play the same and Seattle will slaughter them. Seattle isn't all that good but they are fast and check really well. Counter punch team.
  9. Isn't that the same league that had the guy charged with murder for the skate blade? Weird that Lucic won't just retire. Dude must have lost his money or something. It's a strange desperation.
  10. Can I vote for Marty Biron for #1?
  11. No. More like a puck hound with a bit of an edge. Unafraid. Maybe more Benson maybe. I'm really not sure why the Sabres would call him out to Vancouver if Zucker and Norris are out. Rosen made sense but Kuntar is a different guy.
  12. How long you been watching? How do you maintain this unfounded optimism? Every year they actually show the opposite.
  13. When he was a Boston prospect a lot of fans optimistically had him pegged as the next Marchand. I was kind of surprised the Bruins gave up on him since they really like the hard working grit guys and he's definitely in that mold. I'm not sure he has NHL skill but you never know. He certainly has the right attitude.
  14. We need that for 60 though not just OT. It's lacking more often than it's there.
  15. I actually play at the seniors center once in a while. I'm 66 and I'm the youngest guy there, but some of them know how to play. It's actually quite fun. The 90 year olds are actually quite inspirational.
