  1. Kucherov played great with that reconstructed hip. Almost like he was never injured really...
  2. I didn’t realize Juolevi finished his NHL career. Geez time flies when you’re having fun. Also please name one GM in the history of the NHL where all of his first round picks became star players, or even regulars in the lineup. I’ll wait.
  3. When Gadjovich knocks out Tkachuk with one punch next game then you will see his stock rise considerably...
  4. If it's between Holtby and either Highmore or MacEwen I think they will take Holtby. Unless there is another better goalie out there.
  5. Chatfield, Rafferty Teves and Sautner are all UFA's, along with Edler and Hamonic. For all the whining that is going on Benning has actually done a great job at leaving almost nothing worthwhile for Seattle to steal off our team. They can have Holtby and an injured Motte. Lind and Gadjovich will be protected. So they can have their pick of MacEwen or Highmore. I would say that is pretty good if one of those guys gets taken.
  6. Quinn no, OJ yes. OJ, Schmidt and Myers. Those are the 3 spots. If you leave Myers unprotected then you would need to protect Bowey or Brisebois. Benning would get laughed out of the league if that scenario happened.
  7. Friedman only had 30 thoughts this week so he had to make the last one up...
  8. Exposing Lind, MacEwen or Gadjovich has nothing to do with exposing Myers. You need to protect 7 forwards and 3 D. So if you're exposing Myers who are you protecting in his place? Madison Bowey?
  9. That's because his cap hit was $4.8 million. If he's a free agent in the summer I'm thinking a few teams may be interested at a league minimum...
  10. The only way they can get rid of Skinner is in a Jack Eichel deal. Even then what team can take on $19 million in salary?
  11. Yup. People who think Benning is getting fired are delusional. Aquilini is a businessman. He's not going to pay for 2 GM's for the next 2 years just to make some posters on CDC happy.
  12. Mike Gillis took over a team that was already built for success and had most of the core pieces in place. Pat Quinn on the other hand had to start from scratch and built his own core of players and went to the finals with his team. Big difference I would say. Quinn is our best GM ever.
  13. He's Italian, he grew up in Jersey, probably Aquilini can relate to him in some ways. Aquilini has had his own adventures over the years with lawsuits, divorces, etc. Maybe Francesco can let him stay in his mansion for awhile and he can learn to adjust to the free world. I'd take a flyer on him. If he doesn't change you can easily get rid of him if he's on a one year deal. If he changes his ways he's a top 4 Dman who plays the right side, can be on the second PP and he can actually fight. I guess he needs to learn to fight more of the players on the other team than his own teammates.
  14. I read exactly what he said. Can you provide the quote where he says he is happy in Columbus and is looking forward to an extension? Pat Brisson is his agent. I don't think things are going to end well for Columbus...
  15. NHL Rumors: Columbus Blue Jackets and Seth Jones | NHL Rumors You can read between the lines...
