McDavid is the best hockey player on the planet, but off the ice, at best he’s dumb as bricks and at worst he’s a bad person. Like, the PR guy in Edmonton oughta be fired for the sh*t that comes outta his mouth sometimes. How do you not prep a Canadian who is the face of the sport for questions about the biggest story in hockey (the Hockey Canada scandal)? His statement about E. Kane was bad enough, this is unacceptable honestly.

Terrible turnover but liked the rest of his game. Just an elite shot on that goal.

Ellis looks like a sneaky good pickup. Holmberg, SDA, Kral, Gogolev, and Douglas had nice games.

Always been a fan of Petruzelli, he did not disappoint. Great game.


Really good game for Robby from what I saw (missed the turnover so it didn't happen). Was loving the way that he'd drop the shoulder to get to where he wanted to go with the puck. With his size that's gonna be an important part of his game at the NHL level, imo.

I've never been a huge fan of Petruzelli (I know he's had great numbers, but everytime I've been able to watch him he just seemed like a shaky bone rack), but he played real good.

The NHL app just put out a release on how i could listen to/watch the Jackets games in Traverse City, so good news: There will be Bobcat's Post-Game Notes installments for the Traverse City Prospect Tournament!


I'm having trouble finding places to watch it, I will be relying on the BCPGNs for updates!

No.
Mike Hoffman will probably though.
If any forward,its him.
Trade Hoffman for Barrie (they just signed Demers for PTO)
Trade Kidney + Harris for Lundqvist + 3rd

Monohan- Dach - Caufield
Drouin - Suzuki - Gallagher
Dadonov- Dvorak - Anderson
Pitlick - Evans - Armia

Edmundson- Barrie
Matheson- Savard
Guhle - Lundqvist

Allen - Montembeault

i was thinking about the barrie idea as well but i dont think it would work.
EDM would move barrie to move out cap, not to move out a defenseman

Idk.
Why would they sign Demers to a PTO then.
They have Bouchard, who replaces Barrie in all aspects, they have Ceci, and soon Demers.
They could use another forward.
Idk seems interesting

Pretty much. I think they just want competition for the #7 spot as if Murray sucks Demers can be the 7th Dman

This quote brings back memories of the 2018 TDL when Lou could have made a blockbuster trade for Miller and McDonagh but nah lets go get a rental C who while good had no intentions of extending and was pretty clear about it.

Just saying imagine

JVR-Matthews-Nylander
Miller-Bozak-Marner
Marleau-Kadri-Brown
Hyman-Moore-Komorov

Lou should have swung the chips and made a trade here and there rather than go and get Romanov. As idk the kids got talent but to pay the 13 OA pick kk.

Could probs get Hague out of VGK for a 2nd by this point

Lou should have stood pat with the leafs, they weren't worth going all in on.

The only player who Lou should have made an attempt to trade for was Debrincat. The Romanov trade was a lot better than other realistic alternatives that Lou would inquire about, like JT Miller.

VGK is not trading Hague, a 6'6 top 4 D is returning more than a 2nd

They were very worth going all in on as when you got Matthews, Marner, Nylander on ELC's, Kadri, 40 goal JVR, semi prime Bozak, and 2 strong goalies you go for it immediately

They had their best season before 2022 and all they needed was some D help and maybe another top 6 forward

Insert Rangers who had McDonagh and Miller up for grabs for almost nothing and with those 2 Toronto would have shored up its Dcore and a 2c replacement for Bozak once he left in FA but what did Lou do and all it would have cost is a 1st + Kapenen and some meh prospects but nope

Trade a 2nd for Plekanec who was a pure rental

Yes the trade would have meant no Robertson or Sandin but they would have had McDonagh to shore up the 2nd pair D and JT Miller as the 2c

Cuz they want to get rid of Barrie to free cap. They're over it as we speak with McLeod unsigned.

Should Barrie go to MTL I think it would be for future considerations or a low pick.

With a 4.5mill cap hit probs have to pay to move Barrie

Cause at least Kulikov only has 1 year left so no worries beyond this season for the dump team. Barrie I believe has 2 more and man without being carried by McDavid and Draisaitl I dont want to think about what hes gonna do lul

To MTL: Barrie
To CGY: Hoffman
To EDM: 5th CGY

Does that make sense?

He was on


Thats what the implication was Kulikov + only 1 year left = FC dump

Barrie with multiple years left at a 4.5mill cap hit = Gimmie a sweetener as why should I take this

Sonny Milano's still available

Scored a highlight real goal last year, had 1 less goal than Hoffman, and wont cost 4.5mill

Seems perfect

Nowhere. No one wants him. Not even Montreal who owns him, wants him.
