  1. You got Josh Brook and Jay O’Brien out of it, so it did cost me.
  2. The Detroit Red Wings have signed prospect Ryan Poehling to a 3 year ELC, with an AAV of $1.375M. @Blue Jay 22 @Nail
  3. Paw Patrol So glad it keeps my daughter quiet/10
  4. February STUDS and DUDS STUDS 1. Ryan Pulock - 90 pool points This caught me by surprise. I knew he had a strong month, but certainly didn’t see this coming. Traded Anthony Mantha a number of years ago for Pulock, and it took a while for him to get going and get his shot in the NHL. Fair to say he’s arrived. 2. Andreas Johnsson - 80 Pool Points I actually think he may have had a few more than this, as he was in the minors for a few games. Few shrewd free agency signings over the years, Johnsson is one of the best I’ve had. 3. Mike Smith - 67 Pool Points This won't happen again, so enjoy your time here. DUDS Nikita Zaitsev isn’t on my team anymore. So nobody this month.
  5. The last 30 minutes of his last special was really good.
  6. Eighth Grade On one hand, I don’t get the hype. However, the writing is on point by writer/director Bo Burnham. Unlike other coming of age stories where the teenagers come across like 35 year old philosophy majors, this really captures what 14 year old teenagers talk and look like, tackling the emotional lows of middle school. Think it’s a good movie for teenagers to watch.
  7. I hear ya. And for the 5 years I’ve been doing fantasy on CDC, I think most know I like trade talk. The fact that I posted that at all is honestly shocking, considering I was close to doing more of a disservice by not talking/inviting trade talk at all.
  8. I don’t have time for back and forth right now. Don’t want to get into it, but for those that know my current situation IRL, I’m not in the right headspace to talk a lot.
  9. Chicago Willing to move everyone on my roster. Send competitive offers in (ie: Not “What do you want for so and so”). Not looking to waste time in back and forth.
  10. Mandy Man, when Nic Cage gets it right, he really gets it right. For every 9 movies of his that are absolutely garbage, he releases one that is one of the best of the year.
  11. Carolina Movement: Placement: Dustin Byfuglien to IR. Recall: Igor Ozhiganov and place on active roster. @Nail
  12. Considering who killed him in LMoE as well, it made it even better.
  13. Good question. *checks filmography* Baby Driver.
  14. Hey everyone. So, I’m now two days back from India, and still trying to get over jet lag. Was up until 5am this morning. Now, there been a few of you (though not many) that have been looking to sign/extend a few players, notably unsigned prospects or RFAs. As you I’ve said in those few PMs, you don’t have to fret, those will be taken care of. And unless you’ve asked and have been told that UFAs of yours won’t be extending (which some won’t and will be going to free agency), there’s no hurry at the moment. Reason I’m saying this is because, while I will get to a few of these (3ish) over the next couple days, I’m having a really difficult time emotionally after my “trip” to India. So if more of you begin to send in offers for your RFAs in particular, don’t be surprised if these take a little longer to get signed. Again, because the deadline is past and we have months to figure it out, prospect signings and RFA extensions aren’t on a time crunch.
  15. Absolutely. Losing a late first round pick and 4th liner Brendan Lemieux really hurts this future: Scheifele Wheeler Laine Connor Ehlers Vesalainen Lowry Copp Tanev Byfuglien Morrissey Their future really got dinged in this trade.
  16. Laine - Kadri - Panarin Lee - Thornton - Voracek Johnsson - Kotkaniemi - Frolik Aston Reese - Eller - Faksa Ryan - Armia Letang - Byfuglien Pulock - Dumba Coburn - Andersson Martinez - Simek Smith DeSmith Bolded are, at this point, guaranteed playoff players. Still question marks with Aston-Reese, Letang, DeSmith, and Dumba (especially with his injury). Also going through some serious injuries at the moment. Kadri, Buff, Letang, and Dumba are all out. But better now than later.
  17. Last call. I’ve been asleep the last few hours, due to jet lag. Good chance I fall asleep again through the deadline. Reach out if I haven’t touched base with you guys.
  18. The LA Kings have signed the following players: Jesper Sellgren: $925k x 3 Alan Quine: $910k x 1 Brooks Macek: $845k x 2 @D-Money @Nail
  19. Watched Lion on my flight back from India yesterday. Considering I was already emotionally rocked by my time there, watching this didn’t help. Agreed on the girlfriend part. Unnecessary. Subtracts from the story. Otherwise, terribly interesting. If any of you have ever been to Kolkata, landing alone at the train station as an adult would be scary enough. It’s quite remarkable that he was able to remember enough of where he came from when he was 5 years old. I remember glimpses of being 5. Truly remarkable.
  20. Carolina Hurricanes Update Alright, so most know I’m a massive, massive fan of Brendan Lemieux. His all around game is something I need in my lineup. That said, he’s no longer on a playoff team. If there is a rebuilding team that likes his game, and is selling off a considerable playoff asset, likely an older player with at least a year left on his contract, then come calling.
