I seriously doubt he'll get less than Nick AND 7-8 years


Maybe if it's loaded with signing bonuses... Boldy signed at 7x7 is most recent comparable

Yeah unfortunately, Marinaro is not a great source, I'd love that to happen but I seriously doubt he'll get less than Nick AND 7-8 years


Yeah, Marinaro said the contract would be announced before the end of the season. Not reliable source.

He also said Devils were offering Luke Hughes or Simon Nemec for Josh Anderson.

...and many Habs fans said he was legit then.

This was the base for countless Anderson-to-NJ trades on ACGM for weeks.

“One team that wants him badly and I mean badly, because I’m sure there’s a couple of teams that would take him. The Devils want Josh Anderson badly. Believe me that when I tell you that. They are not trading Jack Hughes and they’re not trading Nico Hischier for him. I don’t know how much they’d be willing to give up, but they have offered some players that are not on this team right now. I’m talking about defenceman Luke Hughes, Simon Nemec, Alexander Holtz. They want Josh Anderson badly, it doesn’t mean have to do one for one deal. They can spice it up by throwing in other players or other picks, but I can tell you right now, based on what I’m hearing, that the Devils want Anderson badly.”

Brian Leetch is one of my guesses, I feel like the other name would be some obscure player

I was thinking less obscure.

Leetch, Amonte? Lawton, maybe?

Sorry left out important part of question.

Can you name the two players since NTDP was established that have been selected to the US World Junior team (u20) straight off their High School roster? (So weren’t playing NTDP or juniors or NCAA or pros).

(NTDP was started in 1996)

(There were a bunch before NTDP including Leetch, Janney, Carpenter, Greg Brown, Scott Young, Tony Amonte, Brian Lawton, Dave Jensen, etc etc)


Well, never mind then. Haha

ETA: but I did manage to be correct on all three guesses!

Yeah, it is very fishy. Really hoping something is done about this, hockey culture breeds toxicity

Bears are always good tbf. And they probably have a solid amount of verteran AHLers. Like Vechinonne which is a big help in the AHL

Kinda expected Babcock to return, but Columbus was not the team I expected that to happen with.

Elite level coach with a bad reputation. If Columbus is looking for results, think this is the right choice.

Babcock should not be an NHL coach anymore with how his stay in Toronto ended, however, if you're looking for Tortorella but not actually Tortorella, Babcock's pretty much that

Babcock to CBJ is even funnier than Hynes and Laviolette being prime candidates for the Ranges HC job.
