darksabre Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Brooks Orpik retiring. I'd love to see some threads from 2008 where people here said they didn't want Orpik and were glad he signed that 6 year deal with Pitt.
Brawndo Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Jack Hughes will wear #86 with the Devils. I highly doubt he consulted Eleven for his opinion first.

What is this world coming to, where kids are wearing NASCAR numbers in midget hockey? (That's why he wanted the number.)
That Aud Smell Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Hey - the threads were merged? Respect.

Based upon what trades?

Brawndo Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 Neither Nicholas Baptiste (Toronto) or Justin Bailey (Philadelphia) were extended Qualifying Offers. 1 1

That doesn’t surprise me. Man I wish Bailey would have worked out. He could have been such a force as a 3rd liner if he got it all together and it clicked. Disappointing.
nfreeman Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 No qualifying offer for Nathan Beaulieu either.
dudacek Posted June 25, 2019 Report Posted June 25, 2019 13 minutes ago, nfreeman said: No qualifying offer for Nathan Beaulieu either. Kinda understandable. He can be a depth defender, but he’s not worth the $2.5 qualifier. Ben Hutton In Vancouver is a headed to free agency for similar reasons. There are probably others. Every Skinner and Hayes getting overpaid at the top of the pile is creating more of these situations at the bottom.

I don't know about that, I was reading on some blackhawks blog. Forum member there said he was behind the St louis bench in December and could hear and see the entire team not getting along. They were actually not a good team back then and all the players were actually insulting each other. I thinke Berube had a lot to do with making it a team. Sometimes the right coach comes along.

Getting rid of Yeo cannot be underrated. But, without having somebody that could at least occasionally stop a beach ball, that team can't fully dig out of that hole in only 3 months. Pretty sure Binnington went 14-1-1 his 1st 16 games. That kind of turnaround goes a looooooong way towards altering the room chemistry. And that kind of a stretch gets even a severely buried team back into the mix.
