Yep


Then who cares

Still don't get how that guy still has a job in TSN

His prospect rankings are terrible, his recommendations to Canadian teams were all ****. He is just to old school for todays NHL

Remember his prospect list where he had a bunch of B prospects ahead of the A levels

With Rask not really being an option, is Dubnyk the best left?


I believe so

Kuemper and Khudobin are options via trade

Would you be interested in Nino Niederreiter for Jesper Bratt?

I'd put TB as one of the winners. They didn't do a single bad decision today - a complete opposite of that in fact.

True, they still have work that needs to be done - that Johnson deal was the real kicker but I didnt count it as today

9 million for Dougie in Jersey. "Cap problem" goes away next year when Subban expires.

Very quietly, the Red Wings have made some good deals-signing Pius Suter and Jordan Oesterle, bringing back Staal and Gagner, and of course stealing the trade gem of the offseason in Nedeljkovic. Yzerman's doing a pretty good job.

How does it feel knowing that the Devils are like two top-six wingers away from being one of the best Metro teams for the next decade?

That 6.2 x 8 Canes offered looks like a f*cking joke now.

Sadly @Dzinger18 it looks like that as long as Waddell remains your GM you're subject to lose everyone once who are expiring as UFAs.

THEY STILL HAVE TURCOTTE TOO!!!

Kings are loaded down the middle. Makes it all the more of an option for either Turcotte or Vilardi to play wing or to acquire something via trade. Excellent job done by the Kings' front office during this rebuild.
