      If you want something accurate give Stetcher High top 6 potential and make him 79 overall. Demko a high starter or Med elite. Around 73-76 overall.

  3. need some fantasy hockey advice:

      I wouldn't. Gut response? That's garbage for you. Parise is the worst player in the deal and OEL and/or Parise aren't good enough to outweigh losing Tavares + Voracek.

      Which is also another reason why I wanted to get a better cooler because it's been at 100 for who knows how long (literally probably a year or two) running at 100c (i never dusted it out right so idk how long it was at that temp for lol). I figured if I got a legit ass cooler then it might help it a little bit after being so hot for so long.

       

      This is the cooler i'm buying as well: https://www.amazon.ca/Noctua-NH-U12-Sockets-Heatpipe-Cooling/dp/B00C9EYVGY

      yeah thanks for all the help, imma test it in a few hours and hopefully it's good!!

      Ah yes, Noctua. Ugly but super effective. Luckily you can replace the brown fans with aftermarket fans if color is important to you (it is to me). 

       

      Quite frankly your chip has probably already experienced some degradation if it was at 100 degrees for any length of time - particularly if it had been like that for a few months. With that said, your performance graph still isn't that bad so I don't see why you couldn't get another year or two out of it so long as you baby it a bit more.

  5. When do Demko and Stecher become available in NHL 17? After their first pro game right? (im assuming pre-season doesn't count because they aren't there yet :()

      Yeah, they actually have to play a real (not preseason) game before they get added. Eichel didn't get added to NHL 16 until the Sabres first game last year.

      Dont forget tim horton

  6. Brisbois is 6'2 175 while Juolevi is 6'3 179... Is it just me or do these two seem very light for their height? Hopefully they both gain some weight over the year, I wouldn't even want Juolevi playing in the NHL with that frame lol

      if juolevi can put on 10-15 pounds of muscle  by next  training camp he be nhl ready  195 pounds is decent size  seeing nhl is wussy these days less harsh hits and smurfs like gaudreau  playing in league  its def nhl lite these days compared to scott steven yrs he would kill johnny canuck with a hit 

    3. Bruce Boudreau

      Bruce Boudreau

      Juikevi could get by in the East if he was on a good team. He is just as good as Maata if not better. Only concern is the west because there are some heavy forwards and teams but with his elite hockey iq and excellent skating ability he could avoid hits like smaller d men do. 

    4. Art Vandelay

      Art Vandelay

      I graduated high school at 6'3 205 and thought I wouldn't grow anymore, but 7 years later I'm 6'5 240ish and in better shape now. Muscles will fill out the frame eventually. I wouldn't be worried about it yet.

  7. Does anyone know if hardwood classic swingman jerseys fit the same as regular swingman jerseys? I wanna buy a shaq jersey but just making sure hardwood classics don't fit differently or something

  8. hey just dropping by giving you your daily dose of noticing 

  9. I know it would take Virtanen (probably) for Barrie, but imagine that d-corps of 
    Edler - Tanev / Hutton - Gudbranson / Sbisa (or Hamhuis) - Barrie... My God, that's probably a top 5 d-corps in the NHL as long as Hutton-Gudbranson can play solid 2nd pairing minutes (hell that doens't even really matter because Hamhuis/Sbisa (moreso Hamhuis) - Barrie would be a fantastic 2nd pairing too. We'd have a young d-corps that would become elite/hit their prime in about 2-3 years, which is perfect timing IMO.

  10. I think it's safe to assume if Stamkos makes it to UFA, he'll get a max contract somehwere. A team will be paying Stamkos 15% of their entire cap lol (12 mil). There will be a bidding war, and I assure you a team will eventually offer him the max.

      @Wilbur

       

      From Babcock's latest comments that someone pointed to on HF, it might be possible that the Leafs don't plan on pros pursuing Stamkos at all. It could just be him trying to tone down the speculation but I think Toronto maybe in a similar position as Tampa soon when they will have their young stars to give out big contracts to and the Stamkos contract could end up being a burden.

    3. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      Certainly don't see him getting the 'Cody Franson treatment', but I'd set a limit at 8.5 mill, if I were a GM.

       

      Team-harmony/cohesiveness is more important than splashing out on hired guns.

    4. Pears

      Pears

      I'd say just make him the highest paid player in the league and I'm sure he'd at least consider it. Even if it's only 100K-500K more then Kane and Toews. 

  11. Is Stamkos the same player pre-broken leg? Been talking to Bolts fans and they say he's not the same 50-goal scorer since he broke his leg in 2014, he hasn't even been a PPG. Makes me weary about going into a bidding war for this dude. Idk if I wanna pay 11 mill + for someone who can't break 80 points.

      also...how, if any, will his latest medical issue(blood clot) affect his playing ability and long term career decisions?

       

    3. Senpai

      Senpai

      Yeah, lots of red flags. Ideally, I would offer him 1 year at max $$, tell him to prove himself next year, then re-sign him to whatever he shows. Obviously that wouldn't be 100% safest considering he could just leave, but that wouldnt really matter anyways because we got him for free in the first place.

       

      He would never be ok with that obviously (someone will give him a max contract right away July 1st probably), but that would be ideal. 

    4. Nuxfanabroad

      Nuxfanabroad

      We always assume SOME GM will come along, & ante up.

       

      Wondering if this might be the case where that doesn't occur?

       

      Likely SS is kicking himself now, for not taking Yzer's offer(or negotiating with greater commitment)?

  12. Would you guys package Tanev and like McCann for Edmonton's 4th pick? If they want to trade it for Hamonic, him and Tanev are very similar (Hamonic provides more offense though). I'd probably do it.

      87Crosby

      Good thing you're not an English prof. But Hamonic is a legitimate top pairing D-man. Edler is a Number 3 on a good team, and McCann is an unproven 19 year old who could be an Elite 2nd liner like Kesler. Also, the Islanders are a desirable team. On the East Coast, less travel, close to Manhattan, a team with a lot of potential. However, I am not Edler and I don't know what teams he will be willing to move too. 

    3. Senpai

      Senpai

      There was a report by Botch a few months ago (might have been in the Provies after a game) but he said the chances of Edler ever waiving his no-trade clause is practically 0. 

       

      If they asked him for a list, chances are he'd give a list of teams that literally can't acquire him, for example. He doesn't want to leave.

    4. canuktravella

      canuktravella

      edler has said in past he wont waive ntc  its not happening  vancouver is his home now  it doesnt matter if your proposing a trade with him because its not on radar for benning to do.  as soon as edler was injured  our season was over  we lost almost 10 games in a row without him    tryamkin and edler would be a fun pairing to watch 

       

      edler tryamkin  

      hutton tanev

      sbisa juolevi    much better d corp

  13. Jesus christ is the quoting button just totally messed up? Constantly quoting the wrong messages (like the wrong posts are showing up in my message box when I click "quote").. This is so stupid and frustrating. Please switch back to the old boards :(

      Quotes are remembered now, like if you close a thread mid response type thing. If you erase the one you don't want by CTRL + left clicking the little box that appears on the top left of the box when you scroll over it, you can add the quote you actually wanted.

  14. Remember how much people freaked out over the Hodgson trade? I mean both teams ended up losing but it's not like we got mad fleeced like everybody thought at first either lol

    1. peaches5

      peaches5

      Except we did. There were gm's who came forward and said they didn't even know Hodgson was on the market. Hodgson signed a huge contract after he was traded showing he was worth much more than Kassian. Just because Hodgson ended up sucking doesn't mean we shouldn't have gotten much more for him in the trade.

  15. Maybe management/owners legitimately think the fans want a playoff run? I mean, it's not like we've been that vocal at the games or anything about wanting to lose... Maybe we should start a chant for Matthews at the next home game? I mean we post on internet forums and such, not like anyone important is reading them lol

    1. Green Goblin

      Green Goblin

      I'll second this. Anyone going to game should bring an over-sized face sign of Auston Matthews.

      Vrbata and a 2nd for Bowey maybe a start.. but I still doubt it.

      not happening  but hopefully pens or wings or bruin give us their 1st for

      vrbata we need to draft our dcorp not trade because the prices for d are way to high

  17. Panthers' are a young team, were on a hot-streak and lost. They haven't learned how to be winners/how to lose with respect. They let emotions get the best of them. They're a fantastic team, but they're still young and need maturing. 

    1. Chris

      Chris

      lol, "lose with respect", there is no such thing in the NHL, if you aren't goin' out swinging, you're viewed as a team that can be taken advantage of physically. Besides, FLA had no Ekblad, could have been a different game with that kid in the line-up - Yes, he is that good.

      I dislike Miller but have never said he wasn't a good goalie. I just think we could have gotten just as good of goaltending for a cheaper price.
