So apparently Holland has been in contact with... Mike Babcock about the possibility of potentially becoming the next head coach of Edmonton

Well if that happens

Mcdavids gonna be asked to write a list and Rip Barrie's NHL Career

And your gonna get the same bull**** answer every interview

"Uh so we need to work harder and.. this 4th line guy was great."


Lmao, Babcock to the Oilers, they’re ruining themselves, first Chiarelli, then Holland and now you want Babcock too, McDavid about to ask for a trade

Dont know if it happens but man if it does I kind of wont be surprised.

As honestly the way Holland is conducting business with the Oilers reminds me of his final years with Detroit after their golden era ended.

Both guys also know each other from said Detroit era so...kind of see why Holland is in contact

What do you mean? It’s still 2020. Time is meaningless


Time is certainly subjective

I don’t know about you, but for me it’s still 1999.

Stars were actually good back then.


And Heiskanen was born. Couple of months after the cup win.

Perhaps it's because I'm from somewhere else entirely but I don't see the problem? What's up?

He had me thinking the Leafs games were going to be postponed, but swooped in with the "NOT" at the last second. Played with my emotions.

Something strange that happened in the Devils game today. A play that took 10 minutes to review, but it wasn’t even challengable. The ref’s explanation makes it even more confusing

That sounded like me doing my first English assignment at 4th grade. So much hesitation between words and sentences with absolutely no way of the audience understanding what the f*ck was going on.

That echo makes it so much worse.

Does anyone else think people on this website over value when it comes to trades. For instance the Eichel trade was way less than what people said the cost of him was.

Yes. Fans tend to overvalue their own players. It's natural.

Then again we can only evaluate player's value for how we see it. We can't know how the people responsible for the actual trading, the GMs, evaluate their assets.

Thus there's very rarely trades that are seen as fair for both sides.

This is the second time I’m watching a game live while walking though an amusement park. Last time it was Disney. This time it’s universal. Also first game of my prospect showcase was good. We won 7-6. I was the goalie goalie to play a full half and my stats were 4ga 12 saves. It’s good to be over .600 sv%

Eichel got traded far less than his value...but yea, that kinda how the website works. Eichels value was diminished because of his injury and team relationship and no one could see that.


Doesn't help that the NHL games trade value is never close.
