  1. No point in trading for Jones. I believe he said he would not sign an extension with the team he is traded to. So ultimately, Jones is a rental.
  2. Cuz they are predators. They prey on the weak ones. It's not like it just happened by chance. Prodding and stalking their victim until they know they can get away with it.
  3. JB take note. Build a team that can roll all 4 foward lines, solid 6 D, and a #1 goalie.
  4. So let's talk about how JB likes Miller at C and wants 3 good scoring lines. So he's wanting at least one top 6/9 winger to fill the void. What about a trade with CHI? Alexander Nylander + Zadorov for 1st 2021 + OJ + Lind (too much???). If Virtanen situation is settled out of court, maybe revisit that trade rumor with BOS. DeBrusk for Virtanen + 2nd? Re-sign Sutter, Hamonic (or other stay at home D), Edler to cheap deals. Nylander EP Boeser Pearson Bo Podz DeBrusk Miller Hogz Motte Sutter McKwean Hughes Hamonic Schmidt Zadorov Rathbone Myers Edler Just spitballing...lol...lazy days of summer.
  5. Not sure. But I heard of 2 possible reasons. 1) he drinks pineapple juice. Hence juice. 2) he came back to training camp the next year and was ripped. Hence juice. Edit: Rick Dhaliwal @DhaliwalSports · Dec 18, 2018 Bieksa on SN 650 : Nickname 'Juice' came from Auldy. When I came to Winnipeg, I was 185 lbs. Next year I came in at 205 just jacked. Obviously Alex was saying "juice juice, you're on the juice you put 20lbs on" I said "its called hard work Alex you should try it"
  6. Sabres need to make a trade before Eichels NMC kicks in after next season. Otherwise they'll get a poor return (like Vancouver did when they traded Kesler). Best bet would be a 1st , 2nd, young prospect, and a roster player. Not the best value for Eichel. But factors in that he wants out, possible surgery, rehab, may not be same player after surgery, etc.
  7. I'm sure Wallstedt will be a priority pick for some teams. You can't go far without a true #1. Just look at EDM and TO for example.
  8. I wouldn't get too hung up on 1st-3rd line. Preferably they all get similar minutes. More minutes to the lines that seem to be on their game for any given night.
  9. As long as the ask isn't too high, I would think JB would trade the #9 pick for Reinhart (or someone else). His goal this offseason is to be aggressive and get back to the playoffs.
  10. Yep. I'm sure TO will be all over it if there isn't some kind of penalty to TB.
  11. I can see TO adopting TB LTIR shenanigans. Keep Tavares on LTIR for next season. Get one other high priced player to go on LTIR before Trade Deadline. Load up with rentals to stack the deck. Everyone on LTIR ready to go when playoffs starts. Absolutely nothing can be done since TB is currently getting away with it. What a joke league. Lol.
  12. Yep. No point turning the other cheek to get a PP in the playoffs when the Refs aren't going to call any. We don't need a replay of Ratman speedbagging Daniel.
  13. Missed the puck with that batting swing. Still responsible for your stick. Should have been a double minor.
  14. It would also depend on how many other teams are in the Reinhart sweepstakes.
  15. Just spitballing... 1. Get SEA to take LE (lose assets OJ + Gadjovich + 2nd 2021...maybe add more?). 2. Sign EP + QH to bridge contracts ($6M x 3yr). 3. Sign RNH for $5.75 × 5yr. Hope he takes a discount to come home. 4. Trade 1st 2021 + Lind + Roussel + 2nd 2022 to CBJ for Jones 5. Sign Saad for $5.25 x 5yr. Heard COL is in money troubles. So slight raise in flat cap world might entice him to come to Vancouver. 6. Sign Sutter for $1M x 3yr 7. Sign Hamonic for $2M x 3yr 8. Buyout Holtby + Virtanen. Team RNH (5.75) EP (6) BB (5.875) Pearson (3.25) Bo (5.5) Podz (0.950) Saad (5.25) Miller (5.25) Hogz (0.89) Motte (1.25) Sutter (1) MacEwan (0.825) Total = 41.79 QH (6) Jones (5.4) Schmidt (5.95) Hamonic (2) Rathbone (0.925) Meyers (6) Total = 26.275 Demko (5) DiPietro (0.81) Total = 5.81 Probably need to increase $$ for RNH and Saad but whatever. Still some money left to have depth players and the Luongo recapture penalty. But this would kill our prospect pool/depth. Meh. I know. Wishful thinking.
  16. Probably something like... Schmidt for 1st 2021 (16th overall) + B prospect. But that seems like going backwards and not improving the team to make the playoffs next year.
