Thread: Senators
Ew no keep Tony DeAngelo as far away from this team as possible. Even putting aside the fact that he's a huge piece of **** (which he is), he's not what Ottawa needs at all. They don't need an Offensive D who is a liability defensively. They need a guy who can be a steadying defensive presence in the top 4, to balance out the offensive minded guys they already have. Sens don't have the depth to offer him the 65% OZ starts or whatever he had this year.

For all the fuss Ottawa has made about "character" and "getting the room right" it would run completely counter to that to acquire a guy like DeAngelo.

Also there's no way Ottawa should be giving a 2nd to acquire MAF. if they can't get assets for taking that deal, there are plenty of goalie options that make way more sense. Not giving up assets to help teams out of a cap crunch.

Thread: Montreal Canadiens signed Joel Edmundson (4 Years / $3,500,000 AAV)
Oh no baby what you doin'?
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">It would be a mistake for Montreal give Joel Edmunson a roster spot, let alone a non-trivial contract.

<div class="quote"><div class="quote_t">Quoting: <b>Stanley_Cup_To_Manhattan</b></div><div>Interesting. I like Turris but we aren't in a position to bank on him. If he spoils it'll hurt us bad. We just can't afford it in our position. Jarnkrok is sick. Would you consider something like this?

:sabres
- Kyle Turris ($1.75M Retained)
- Calle Jarnkrok
- Eeli Tolvanen
- 2020 2nd-round pick (NJD)
:predators
- Tage Thompson
- Colin Miller
- Casey Mittelstadt</div></div>

It's not a bad offer, but I think Poile really wants to try out Tolvanen this year. In any Turris trade, I can't see Poile retaining salary, giving up a good pick, <em>and</em> giving up a top prospect. However, in this case it's a prospect swap Tolvanen - Mittlestadt, so I wonder if that would change Poile's mind. It's an interesting offer, but I don't know if NSH would want to lose Tolvanen. You could probably remove Mittlestadt and Tolvanen and I think it'd be closer for Poile. But who knows!
