This is the same guy that suggests that Blake Comeau is good.

He has 0 credibility.

you sure hate blake comeau lmao

That was Dallas last year.

He ruins my brain cells and other Stars fans brain cells too.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Pelech go tbh, and I hope that’s what happens. Canada doesn’t have much in the way of high end guys that can play defense/kill penalties, especially on the left side (Weegar would be another one, but he shoots right which matters more to Hockey Canada). Most of our lefts shot hopefuls are pure offense guys that are mediocre in their own end (Chabot, Rielly, Nurse, Chychrun [who has also had a horrendous start], and Theodore are all primarily offensive defensemen, bottom half defensively). I think most people expect a Theodore-Pietrangelo pair in the top 4, but Canada’s best defenseman is obviously Makar, and I think he’d do better with a stabilizing presence like Pelech, rather than a pure puck mover like Chabot or Rielly. Pelech-Makar / Theodore-Pietrangelo / Chabot-Hamilton is looking real nice right now, and realistic based on what Hockey Canada usually does (equal right and left shots, rewarding guys with a history there [Chabot was best D at the WJC. a few years ago, he’s a Hockey Canada favourite]). Hopefully Weegar-Ekblad would be the 4th pair, maybe even the 3rd pair (as much as I love Chabot, Weegar-Hamilton is probably the best 3rd pair we could bring though), but as I implied earlier, I doubt they bring Weegar to play on the left side. Ekblad is likely one of the top 4 RHD though. Maybe Rielly-Ekblad on the 4th pair. So yeah, I’d expect Pelech to be there, he’s definitely one of our 3 best LHD. I think Pulock is less likely, I don’t think he’s one of the 4 best RHD, and if they want a PK minute muncher they’d just slide Ekblad up. Regardless of what they decide, I think Canada’s D corps will be very interesting (Pelech-Makar / Theodore-Pietrangelo / Weegar-Ekblad would be the most elite and well-balanced top 6 we could bring in terms of offense, defense, and special teams imo).

Hey now, that's Stamkos' meme.

Petr Mrázek would like a word

Mrazek has nothing on Stamkos' injury history.

Ben Bishop: "ahem"

They're both nothing compared to Ben Bishop's injury history.

Could be Crosby too

Fair point.

Ben Bishop's issues did give rise to one of my favorite memories of the 2015 playoffs. The announcers were fascinated with Kristers Gudlevskis when he was serving as Vasy's backup in one of the SCF games.

Bergeron, Malkin, and Letang would like a word as well lol, those guys are constantly injured. Malkin especially misses a couple weeks in March every single year without fail. And Bergeron regularly does crazy stuff like play through a punctured lung lmao

The Rangers are apparently interested in Ben Chiarot or Calvin de Haan. Why am I not surprised by Drury.

James Dolan on his throne: “Drury? I saw the scary capitals guy and the really good oilers guy in my dreams again…
go fetch me a defenseman that can also give a little grit”

Why, they both suck and NYR has so many young talents but GRIT am i right

chiarot for schneider swap 👀

Imagine if you call it

If this happens I'll run my street in a bathing suit and a fedora in the cold.

Knowing Drury it'll probably happen.

Nooo. Canucks could really use Schneider :/

If this does happen, we’re gonna need either pictures or a video

lmao

Don't entice Drury lol, also i'd love to see that

im hoping it does MTL needs RD prospects
