  1. Hilarious revenge! However, the funny thing is Montreal did a the canes a favour with that Aho offer sheet because it was such a good deal people were scratching their heads why they offered a fair value contract and didn't expect carolina to match, so it was a waste of time. Aho is underpaid now with that contract.
  2. Jake is the classic example of the player who is just happy to be in the NHL, so he can party like a rock star. So much potential wasted because he never had the work ethic or desire to improve his game. Not sure if this will be his wake up call or not.
  3. They will keep re-signing Mike Smith until he's 50.
  4. Indefensible pick! Exhibit A of "hockey culture." There's no getting around it when people try to defend hockey culture as they can always point to this pick now. Just shameful and classless by Montreal!
  5. Nope. I assumed he was stepping away for his mental health due to receiving so much hate from Montreal fans because he hasn't lived up to his draft pedigree.
  6. Boy we still need Petey and Hughes signed too. Time to trade schmidt for a draft pick and have Jett Woo take his spot cause we need some elc players!
  7. I think they should take Price. It's a bad contract, but they can make him the face of the franchise like vegas did with Fleury and make up a lot of value in tickets and merchandise sales. They should also take a flyer on tarasenko since there's only 2 years left on that deal. Giordano is a no brainer with only 1 year left too. Gourde should be the tampa pick. Lots of intriguing names on this list compared to the list vegas chose from. I'll be very interested too see which underperforming big name contracts they choose to take.
  8. Yeah, sites want photo id. I bet on Pinnacle many years ago and had to scan my driver's license to them. Forgot how long it took to get set up. However, I didn't gamble for long cause I wasn't good at it, lol!
  9. Do it! Montreal is +1700 and Tampa is -5000 to win the series. What this means is, if you bet $100 on Montreal, then you win $1700. If you bet on Tampa, you need to bet $5000 to win $100.
  10. Pretty great result with the habs beating vegas and then getting swept in the finals! Only way it could have been better if it was the Islanders winning instead of Tampa!
  11. Man, I wish the Islanders played with more desperation. This was a great chance for them to win a cup against Montreal.
  12. I love burrows, but I don't love obnoxious Montreal fans gloating about a cup win! I'm not into the whole bring the cup back to Canada unless it's the canucks, winnipeg or ottawa. Go Tampa!!!
  13. https://theathletic.com/2672134/2021/06/25/former-blackhawks-player-every-guy-on-the-team-knew-about-video-coachs-alleged-sexual-assault/ Another article out today about it. Despicable by blackhawks management to ignore Vincent's request to report it to the police. I saw someone comment doubting the story thinking it was a money grab, but there's too many people saying it did happen for that to be the case.
  14. A pipe dream since he would cost too much and we can't afford his next contract, but he would score 50 with petey easy. The jets have mismanaged him so badly and I hope he gets traded to a team that treats him better. They got so lucky in that lottery draft and they just bungled the handling of Laine since. This is a different situation than trouba who wanted out for family reasons. Laine would have been content to stay in Winnipeg if they handled things like his ice time and giving him consistent top line minutes more. Winnipeg has no one to blame but themselves for this situation and isn't a situation of a player not wanting to play in Winnipeg. He wants out for legit hockey reasons.
