  1. Ditto and despite the issues (proven by hindsight) the team is still trending in the right direction..
  2. Maybe and we'll see how much it would take to sign the RFA's; Pearson probably walk and not sure about JV.
  3. Good chance he replaces Edlers' salary (6 million) next year and will probably be let go or he signs for a BIG discount; hopefully, Rafferty or one of our prospect can earn a spot, to be a cheaper option for JB. Next years RFA's will need alot of cap space to resign......
  4. Imo, doing this trade - at this point - would be counterproductive because of his cap hit, injury history and (especially) the rumoured assets being required are too much of the teams' future. In a cap world and especially, during the covid pandemic alot of teams will be relying (more and more) at talented players in there elc to compete. Perhaps in a couple of season when all/most of these contracts are off the books, then I hope they circle back and reach out to the cash strapped & ever rebuilding Panthers, about a potential Ekblad trade - since he will still be 26/27 by then with three years left on his contract. If given the choice between OEL and Ekblad - Ekblad hands down cause his cap is cheaper (7.5 instead of 8.25) and he is younger by 5yrs. As for Cernak, his d partner was McDonough and that pairing was great. With the Canucks, who would be his partner and how would he be used by Baumer ?
  5. The D with Stecher, struggled when pressured in the playoffs - past unless it is for a similar deal as Motte..
  6. Congrats and thanks to Tanev ! I wasnt really keen on an aging Tanev and would prefer to sign TT. Very interested to see how JB will fill the hole; preferably, one/two of our prospects will end these rumors
  7. Ditto and congrats to Zach - you earned it ! I hope you surpass JV in the dept chart and become a regular in the lineup. Motte is next !
  8. Teams like Arizona, Florida, Buffalo and etc (non traditional teams), will always have a small window of competing unless they are drafting well (like Tampa) cause of the cap and cash flow. These teams will always end up winning the lottery for a few years and when those players get expensive they will start dumping salary and the cycle starts again. If Iam JB, I will be developing good relationships with these teams and mostly forget the rest cause the talent will be alot better...
  9. Arizona should be giving up assets to any team willing to take on this contract; Arizona is asking for assets and gaining cap & monetary relief - ridiculous. The only team that should be stuck with this contract are the Yotes..
  10. His current play, reminds of JM from a few years ago. IMO, this is all mental on Demkos' behalf cause his lack of confidence (based on the eye test), will also affect how the team plays in front of him.
  11. Demko, averaging one bad goal a game so far, very similar to JM from a few years ago..
  12. Great team (players and coahces) lost ! Let's see, if this (very) bitter pill will light a fire (winning streak) or crumble the team - off to the next game. I hope Green goes all in with Demko, despite the result, until JM gets back.
  13. Ditto. The Toffoli trade could probably had waited while giving MacEwen an extended look. A panic move ????
  14. The team is simply, going all in while EP and QH are still in there elc. On the surface, it seems like a good plan to keep/extend the compete window open while the young core (EP and QH) are in there bridge deal...
  15. Probably, safe to call a shutout for JM on Sedins' night - 10 seconds left. GCG !
  16. This is probably, a perfect game to were analytics does not reflect the score. Very interested, how CA and other sites will right about this game . Great job JM
  17. Each one is allowed to have an opinion and it doesn't take anything away from the Sedins and the ceremony - imo. Personally, I enjoyed the ceremony and most of the memories. Congrats to the twins , kudos to the fans and time for new memories ! Game time...
  18. Deserving send off, to the twins and time for the, New Core to make there own memories- hopefully, with a Stanley Cup. Respect, your honesty; just wondering how come ?
