Master Mind Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 Jet would like to call up Ivan Barbashev, Tyler Pitlick, and Jake Dotchin, while sending down Matthew Peca to the Manitoba Mooses. @Nail Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Intoewsables Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 We're sad to see Rinne go, but we truly believe that a move like this was in the best interests of both parties. This gives Pekka a chance to finally win a Stanley Cup -- something that wasn't going to happen here any time soon -- and gives us a little more flexibility under the cap, as well as some good assets for the future.

To EDM: Pekka Rinne ($2.5M retained for 2017-18) To OTT: Michal Neuvirth, Blake Speers, 2018 EDM 2nd, 2019 EDM 3rd We thank Ottawa for the quick negotiations. The Oil management are excited to go into the season with a Rinne - Hellebuyck combo, along with an improved defensive core. We hope this, after a strong 2017 Entry Draft, is a signal to fans and FA that the team expects to be contender in the West next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BM24 Posted June 20, 2017 Share Posted June 20, 2017 The Calgary Flames have been heard to have made LW/C Dylan Larkin available for trade. Apparently the Flames are in search of a similar aged forward, but on a playoff team - with the Flames willing to add if necessary. The Flames are in a good position to push hard for this type of move to help bolster their playoff roster, and have the prospects/picks in their system to make such a deal. The dreaded sophomore slump bit Larkin last season, but he showed what he is capable of in his first year. While the Flames are pursuing options with Larkin, they seem to be just fine keeping him realizing you need non-playoff players to make the playoffs in the first place, and with Larkin's 1M caphit for this season, it helps create cap room to resolve holes in their lineup down the road.

Yeah, but that was inevitable. Unless, of course, they turn this "equipment allergy" thing into a reason to just put him on IR. Wouldn't surprise me.

Funny how it's only suddenly an issue...the exact time his salary drops. Meanwhile Luongo will happily retire, and stick it to Van. But that's OK - dim Jim would have just wasted the money anyways.

Monty Posted June 21, 2017 Share Posted June 21, 2017 Very Big Shout Out Guys, after seeing how IRL expansion has been unfolding, and also being one of the first fantasy leagues (that I'm aware of) in handling expansion, I think we really need to recognize not only @Nail, but also all of us in the league for how smoothly expansion was done here. As far as I've seen, everything went off without a hitch. Things have gone as smoothly and efficiently as they possibly could have. The work that Nail put in months ahead of time, as well as all the GMs working with Nail and with each other to ensure the league continued to run as smooth as it has really speaks to the people we have in place here. Yes it's fantasy hockey and doesn't mean much at the end of the day; but things could really have gone poorly, had work and preparation not been done all around. Good job, everyone!
