  1. Likely the RAT gave him a cheap shot when nobody was looking - that makes the most sense, no?
  2. So what is the official word on Markstrom? Why are we acquiring goalie depth? Did that stick through the mask Saturday do more damage than initially thought or......?
  3. Juice also said he likes Vancouver's chemistry and their d-core is a strength of the team right now. He doesn't think bringing in a guy just to bring in a guy is a good idea - could mess with the chemistry which is obviously working really well right now.
  4. Sadly, after what Boston just paid to unload Backy, I think we're gonna have to, as you say, "ride it out".
  5. Circumventing the cap.......hmmmmmmm, remind me exactly how that worked out for us last time?
  6. He was. Then he didn't report to AHL, knowing full well that Buf would likely go ahead and seek to terminate his contract. He's actually getting what he wanted all along this way. There's a reasonable chance a playoff team signs him as a UFA now.
  7. You're asking the wrong questions imo. The real question is how long can we afford to ice a contending team as them being part of the core? Hint, we wont be competitive for the duration of their careers - just ask Hank/Danny.
  8. JB has said repeatedly in the past that he's always talking to other GM'S, always. Anything coming out of media in the next week before tdl has to be taken with an even bigger grain of salt imo as they get even more nuts than average fans.....it's all about the ratings to them.
  9. Simmonds was previously traded for Hartman & conditional 4th so if anything I'd say his value is slightly lower than that right now just because he's a year older and we're by no means guaranteed a playoff spot.
  10. Rafferty’s in Utica, or did I misinterpret something you were saying?
  11. I don't see this at all. Kreider has a M-NTC with 11 team no-trade list. My guess is that both AB teams are on that list, but Boston isn't.
  12. I would consider BB/ Stetcher for Greenway/one of the firsts that Min currently holds. Min gets hometown kid and a very serviceable defenceman(not replacement so calm down) for when they eventually unload Dumby for a legit center who will then play wt BB. We get valuable cap flexibility to look at resigning Marky/Tanev, a first this year to replace our traded one and a very promising young roster player. I don't want to trade BB, but if it came to it I'd consider this deal carefully.
  13. Baer and a conditional 4th for Simmonds should do it. If you look at what NSH paid to rent him last time....
  14. Fact 1 - the name Chicago is derived from the indigenous Miami-Illinois word 'shikaakwa' meaning wild onion. Fact 2 - wild onions have a strong odor.
  15. LOL, this is posturing so when the team inevitably misses the playoffs he can say publicly that he tried everything and the owners will back the 're-build' which is badly needed there.
  16. Gut our franchise of high draft picks so EP/Huggy have no one to play with in 2-4 Years? Ok then....
  17. Lol.....yet another CDC proposal asking for your teams future superstar for our spare parts. Quantity doesn't equal quality.
