LA has Quick and Peterson so why would they want him?

Edmonton maybe but I got a feeling they gonna get Husso


I feel like if quick doesn't retire, they're gonna trade 1 of quick / petersen
I just have that feeling

It is just a guess, but Robin Lehner will be the Leafs starting goalie next year.


Nah, he's cheap, why would Vegas move in from him
Thompson isn't starting caliber, so who'd they get to be their starter?

Got to think Toronto has to be on his M-NTC especially with that old tweet he made during the 3-team trade

Interesting. Honestly, I don't hate that idea. And Vegas could very likely move him. How much would he cost? A first? A second? A first plus Mrazek? Kerfoot? Nick Robertson and a first?

For the most part their contract projections have been pretty accurate. It’s impressive


@NHLfan10506 made a post last year comparing CapFriendly users contract predictions in ACGM and they were surprisingly more accurate than Evolving-Hockey's.

We are talking about a deal :
Jake Allen 50% retained + Oilers 2nd round pick + Josh Anderson for William Nylander + Timothy Liljegren [ RFA right ]


liljegren is the piece that makes this deal not happen. the leafs cant afford to lose him. bringing in allen at 1m who are you pairing him with? are you pairing him with campbell? allen is only giving you 40ish games at best.

Yes I am. Just a flames fan for this playoffs. I couldn't switch teams, it just wouldn't be right.

Luke Hughes player of the game for USA vs. FIN. Devils need this kid to be a top 4 staple, starting next season. Because Ty Smith is way behind expectations.

CBJ at the World Championships - Day 3!

Canada - Kent Johnson - 0,0,0 (2,0,2)
Played 3rd line LW with Barzal and Batherson again, line looks like it was clicking, just not finishing.

Canada - Cole Sillinger - 1,0,1 (2,0,2)
Happy birthday kid, turned 19 today. Played 2nd line LW with Anderson and Lowry, line looks good and has scored in every game so far.

Latvia - Elvis Merzlinkins - 34/36 1 goal against ( 90.7 save% and 2.68GAA)
Elvis was a big reason they won, but Latvia finally scored 3 goals in a game, even if it was an undermanned Norway team.

France - Alexander Texier - 1,0,0 (2,1,3)
Demoted to 3rd line RW with more Frenchman. Another goal for the French team, looking like he’s back to playing when he left the Columbus lineup due to injury.

USA - Nick Blankenburg - 0,0,0 (0,0,0)
3rd pair RD with Hughes, looked good in limited ice time due to the amount of penalties in the game.

USA - Andrew Peeke - 0,0,0 (0,1,1)
2nd pair RD with Schmidt, looked solid at 5v5 but as a team they struggled on the PK giving up 3 PP goals to Finland.

Nope
As a contender, I surely wouldn't trust him as my #1
30 games max imo

Hughes wasn’t that good today tbh, he had 1 good pass to get the player of the game on the US only goal. Hughes was better yesterday when he didn’t get the player of the game. I actually though Myers was one of the best players for the US, he was noticeable around the puck the whole game in his limited ice time due to all the penalties.

I never said that you should trust Allen as your #1

But there's no way in hell you can compare Allen ro Thompson

Allen>>>>> Thompson
In like every aspect
At least now

Yeah. Hughes screened his own Goalie on a shot from the point that resulted in one of the goals for FIN. Just nice to see him playing against good competition and hopefully gaining confidence heading into next season.

So Anthony Stolarz is better than Jake Oettinger because he has better contract and save percentage

Your logic doesn't make sense
