Skinner having positive market value has got to be one of the biggest shocks from these player cards


I've actually always liked Skinner and didn't think his down years were an indication of who he was as a player. However, in no world would I want him on my team at 9 mil.

He’s a great player, for whatever reason Kruger scapegoated him and destroyed his confidence

- Strome Walks
- Kubalik Walks
- Dach traded for mid 1st in weak draft
- Debrincat traded for early 1st in weak draft
- Taking Mrazek's contract for basically free


The worst offseason in NHL History?


They'd all be top 5 in points on the Blackhawks, with Dach (19) only 1 point behind Kane (20).

Skinner being productive? Tage is really THAT good

Tage is very good at carrying the puck, so is Tuch. So Skinner is able to touch the puck briefly and find opens space which is what he excels at. If he has to carry the puck and generate offense he is not good.

Everyone sees this one picture of Chycrun is asking to be traded to Toronto

I would be surprised with how well things are for the Dcore we would go get him

As for the pic reference https://mobile.twitter.com/NRApatreon/status/1601782194942275585

Will say this the teams I do see going hard for him

NYR, EDM, SEA (Leaving Ottawa out as I dont think they be buying rn)

Seattle claims Tolvanen

Makes no sense to me as now they got to many forwards and are already wasting Wright's potential

Tolvanen will probably take Donatos spot on the 3rd line with gourde and bjorkstrand. Not a bad idea to put him with 2 players who can generate offense and pass at a high level

Donskoi will probably be an extra forward. Wright could take Geekies spot if he cools off:

Schwartz-Wennberg-Burakovsky
Mccann-Berniers-Eberle
Tolvanen-Gourde -Bjorkstrand
Sprong-Wright-Tanev

Wright is loaned out to Team Canada. When he comes back, once he has two weeks on roster and 5 healthy scratches, they can send him to AHL for two weeks. And can always send him back to Kingston. They have lots of options there.

I feel there is a big red flag that they saw that we as fans cannot see. Idk what it is but when they pass on someone with this much potential there must be something else going on

Philly is at 50 contracts according to CapFriendly but those others really have no excuses. Columbus doesnt really need wingers but are extremely hurt so it doesnt hurt.

You're the one who started this whole thing, answering 100 of my old posts and tagging me here.

I told you yesterday i'm done arguing with you, because you use insults and lies when you're proven wrong.

Please stop quoting me here. You're only trying to gaslight the situation.

According to someone, Tolvanen had great analytics and it was a huge mistake for Nashville to waive him. He was supposed to be claimed really high.

I guess GMs look at more than advanced stats when evaluating players.

Colorado should 100% be all over Horvat. Newhook should be a part of the package and they go for BTB championships

As MacKinnon/Horvat being the one two punch screams SCF
