  1. Calgary OTB: Defense: Jacob Larsson, Robert Bortuzzo Forward: Phil Kessel, Devante Smith-Pelly, Nick Bonino
  2. If you EVER try and take my job here again, I’ll f*ck you up!
  3. Just like the Roussel signing, I really like Ferland. Sandpaper guys who can chip in offensively are incredibly needed for a balanced lineup. Yes, there’s definitely risk because of the style of play, but every team needs guys like him. The key is to not pay them too much. And $3.5M is a great contract, even if he ends up playing 60ish games due to wear and tear. In fact, players like Ferland/Roussel are guys I’d consider to start putting into the same category as goalies (and what the NBA can do), which is managing their schedule/workload so they don’t play every game of the season. Acknowledging that their style will wear on them for not only the season, but their quality of life long term. Playing them less so they don’t get injured (which is likely during the season) will ensure you get the most of them for the end of the season and playoffs.
  4. I don’t know anything about Abbandonato. All I do know is he was signed by the Lightning and put up 111 points in 68 games in the QMJHL this year.
  5. They’ve certainly done a lot. Although, it would take a few more moves of epic proportions to catch up to the lead that the Rangers were not only gifted (lottery) and Trouba trade demands (one of the two New York teams), but also just sheer benefit of being in New York (and two draft picks really looking like steals): Panarin Fox Kakko Trouba Kravtsov Shestyorkin Having ALL these guys ready to play next year is downright scary for the East and the Metro.
  6. Wish I could simultaneously upvote the first part and laugh at the second part.
  7. @Tylez There’s your much needed playoff boost
  8. A player that has a LNTC has the same list. However, once he is traded, a new team does replace the team he was traded to. However, for a player with a full NTC/NMC (like Nelson) who provides a 3 team list, they must remain with the club they have been traded to for one calendar year. So, in this case, Brock cannot he traded until July 10th, 2020. At which point, you will be provided with a 3 team list.
  9. The entire soundtrack to MidSommar is brilliant. Haunting. Gorgeous. I don’t often like to listen to soundtracks, as they can ruin repeat viewings of films for me. Sometimes, if the album is brilliant, I won’t even think about it. O’Brother soundtrack and Interstellar soundtrack come to mind. Can listen to those all day. Not sure if this album is quite there, but it is terrific.
  10. I’ve tried to emulate it in FL. Unsuccessfully.
  11. That’s how I feel about the Oakland Athletics and Minnesota Twins. Grew up a HUGE Twins and Athletics fan. I don’t care that neither have won since 1989 and 1991. They’ve won and I’m still happy about those. I was a young kid when they both won. And even though I’m pushing 40 now, while it would be nice to see them win again, I have no problems not seeing it either. I can hang my hat on those wins.
  12. This. I like both the Hawks and Kings (Kings a little more). I couldn’t care less how brutal they’ve been in their free agent signings (ie: Kovalchuk), slow play, and draft misses/injury troubles lately (ie: Vilardi). They’ve won 2 Cups the last 8 years. Like Chicago, they could miss the playoffs for the next 20 years. I wouldn’t be bothered. This would be the same case for me with the Canucks.
