  1. Benning had really good things to say about Stecher. Makes me glad he wasn't gonna do what some here suggested and trade him for a 3rd rounder or some middling prospect. This goes back before the Bruins game but I really like Stecher's game and his compete. He isn't a flashy in your face player but he isn't a liability. He is a player you can win playoff games with. I still believe he could take Tanev's minutes if we need to let him go in the offseason. but that's a talking point for another. Glad Stech is still around.
  2. If you're a Canes fan you're happy with the moves they made. Personally unsure about their goaltending come playoffs but when you add Skjei and Vatanen as well as Trochek your team is quite deep all around. Hopefully all that talent makes up for the suspect goaltending.
  3. With all the assets Carolina is throwing around surprised they didn't nab Lehner. Really would have put all their pieces together nicely.
  4. A 1st round pick? Why though? Lol. Just cause someone has 1 more year left on their deal doesn't mean the demand a 1st round pick Tampa. Are they that desperate for some playoff success?
  5. Passed through waivers recently I am pretty sure, don't have to worry about another Philly poaching our goalie situation. Hard to complain about depth when it doesn't cost any picks or worthwhile prospects. Hopefully this doesn't mean Marky is hurt though. Stick through the cage is scary. I'd trust a Demko/Domingue tandem to limp us into the playoffs, but our run stops there without Marky.
  6. To be fair they only have one legit LD option. Signing any d-man that can actually play is a win for Toronto, regardless of them being LD. I like Muzzin and 5.6 isn't too bad. He's a better Tanev and Toronto desperately needs players like Muzzin. Leader, good for 21ish minutes a game, decent-good offensive production. Hard to complain about this deal.
  7. Considering Toronto's love of forwards surprised they didn't take Athanasiou for Barrie straight up.
  8. Kinda makes TSN/Sportsnet look stupid or whoever thought the Canucks would trade Juolevi for Simmonds.
  9. Nice add for Pittsburgh. Nobody wants to play in Buffalo I guess. Edit: Damn, and Sheary going back. Pittsburgh really loading up.
  10. And here we are crying over a 3 mil recap penalty. If Parise retired similarly to Luongo they'd have 3 years of 6.5mil in recap. Yikes.
  11. Markstrom in a landslide. If he’s even slightly worse we are out of the playoffs looking forward to the top 10 of the draft.
  12. Yes. But I guess he’s okay cause he swears in his tweets. Resonates better with the cool kids.
  13. Good trade for Edmonton. Not sure it’s enough but it’s something. All it cost was a 4th, potentially 3rd. Can’t complain.
  14. Hopefully this puts to rest the idea that Petey should have been captain. Y'all on crack for suggesting it. Even thinking it.
  15. Love AA's speed. Not sure I give up Lind for him though. I think Lind's ceiling is higher. Whether or not he reaches it is a different story but still would rather gamble on that potential than give it up for a middle 6 winger. If he can be had for a middling prospect like Lockwood and a middling pick (4th rounder) I'd take him. Lol. And obviously some sort of cap dump going back.
  16. That's tough, Baer and Eriksson are pretty much anchors. Stecher is upgraded by Subban. Regardless of what people seem to think of Subban's game. I'll admit taking Subban's entire cap hit is rough though. We are losing 9mil in cap for next season, but gaining 9mil in cap in Subban. Lol. Not sure either team does this deal. Why would New Jersey take 2 cap anchors for no picks or prospects when Subban is better than the entirety of the package coming back? And why would Vancouver move out 9mil on cap anchors and Stecher to take in 9mil in cap on Subban and a rental in Simmonds. They didn't want Subban's entire cap hit before. Makes less sense now.
  17. I am wondering if they are just hoping someone picks him up. He may find his way back to LA if he clears. We'll see though, he had a good start to the season but his play trailed off.
  18. Randorf? Come on man, don't make me actually debate whether or not I'd rather watch the Boston feed
  19. Great anthem singer. Didn't over sing either anthem. I love the simplicity. She is immensely talented, could easily have gone full Mariah Carey.
  20. Honestly our best bet is planting crack in his bag and hoping we can LA Kings our way outta his contract. Maybe Eriksson can develop an allergy to his jockstrap.
  21. Why? Toffoli isn’t as good offensively but plays winning hockey. We good. Look for a 24-28 year old right handed d-man or try offload Baer for pickles and juicy fruit. Otherwise we can do nothing and just hope it’s enough.
