  1. Gardiner gets worked over hard on these boards. I do it as well as I love to razz on Leafs. But he is a good puck mover and is younger than Eddy. Better than Eddy at some things as well.
  2. Yip. The Canucks trade Bo and then spend the next five years trying to acquire a player like him. Doesnt make sense to me.
  3. Colin Miller should be a target as the Knights are up against the cap and yet to re sign Karlsson.
  4. I've been tossing the idea around of trying to get Larsson out of Edmonton. He is UFA next summer and I wonder how or if contract extension talks have taken place.
  5. JB may get desperate but I think it would take more to have him give up that tenth overall.
  6. I'm starting to get a bad feeling on the next two to three weeks. We will be leaving empty handed on possible trades and UFA's. We have little to offer in trade. We can offer UFA's cash and term but if they dont want to be here it doesnt matter. One can hope the secondary market will provide options.
  7. Rangers will add Trouba and Fox this season. Two righties we would of loved to add. Again, no fault of JB's as I am pretty sure neither were wanting to come here or extend here.

  9. They will blow by us in the rebuild. So many picks this year and last. Before JB gets toasted for the picks comment though the Rangers had a lot of currency to trade picks for. JB had too many NTC's to work with and then the players with no clauses were plugs. Rags also won a draft lottery rather than lose three straight. Going to be tough listening to the pundits praise the Rangers for their rebuld.
  10. There may be some bargain bin shopping for JB if Eddy doesn't sign. Maybe some teams that are at the cap want to off load a veteran dman to free up space.
  11. I fully agree. If Eddy doesn't want to sign a contract that leaves him exposed at the expansion draft then we move on and I commend JB. I want Eddy back as he is a big part of the team. But there are stop gaps available. I would even add Phaneuf to your list. Brodie may be available as well. If this team takes a step back because there is no Eddy on it then we really weren't that close to improving anyways.
  12. Not sure about miles but yes Ohlund was a stud and I think the closest ever to a Norris Dman in VanCity. We have a healthy, prime, Ohlund in 2011 we win hands down .
  13. Hope so. Team has been searching for a number one dman for 50 years. Ugh.
  14. I like JB taking his chances here. Given the expansion draft, age and injury history, injuries, speed of the game I'd be shocked if theres a team to offer three years. Also has to be a team Eddy would want to uproot his family for. I dont see it.
  15. Game of chicken going on here between JB and Eddys agent. Easy to say screw him but the prospects of going into next year with no Eddy and no Tanev (he will be injured) is downright scary.
  16. For sure. But they will be competitive for years. Not Cup favourites but have a lot of nice pieces moving forward.
  17. Really cant blame EK for signing that offer. Bay area is beautifull, good team, long term deal.
  18. Does this have an effect on the return that the Sens got? I believe it adds a first?
  19. It doesnt make sense to me that EK was there in the first place. They have Burns on the right side locked up forever as well. Plavsic or someone has to go right? There has to be little cash for Pavelski now. He is their heart and soul and would be shocked if they dont re sign him as well.
  20. This. I would love to add EK. But looks like we would of had to trade and then sign to even match that. And that is on fugly deal. Too much term and too much for a guy that is showing signs of falling apart.
