  1. San Jose definitely did not win. They got a first round pick for a Norris winning defenseman when their starting price was three 1sts. You’re telling me they couldn’t have gotten Pickering or Blomqvist from them? This move just ensures San Jose’s rebuild is gonna take even longer which I’m good with.
  2. Well with San Jose being in our division I was hoping they’d get a weak return so I’m happy with that. They went from asking for three 1st round picks to getting one late one. Dubas also blowing his load early with the Pens. He just turned them into the Leafs real fast.
  3. Yea but Karlsson has value. Granlund and Petry have none. Not sure why San Jose would ever take that Granlund contract. Let’s face it teams that have poster boys like Crosby on it get favours done for them all the time. It’s still the old boys club.
  4. Does San Jose do this deal is the better question. Pittsburgh does that deal all day long. They give up very little value.
  5. Play physical and make simple passes. If Myers could master that he’d actually be effective.
  6. A third party team is gonna want a first to retain 4-5 mil. I guess Pittsburgh is trading their next 3 firsts!
  7. I’m getting the feeling Dubas is just a blackmail artist… Theres no way a guy who has proven nothing is given this much power by a team is there?
  8. Don’t see how they get this done considering they’ll have to pay to dump salary which has proven to be very difficult and then have the pieces left to acquire Karlsson.
  9. Willander has some physicality to his game too apparently. Finally the scouts are realizing strength and physicality matter. Who knew?
  10. Reminds me of the David Clarkson deal. Will most certainly end with a buyout or Robidas island…
  11. Big blow the day after he becomes GM. Guentzel is out at least 3 months which means no training or training camp. Probably won’t be back until November. Wonder if wonderboy makes a trade for some scoring.
  12. Always overrated just like the Leafs. When will fans learn.
  13. You know it’s the dog days of summer when I’m craving any sort of Canucks news. I’ll take anything right now…Canucks hire a new team dentist. Fantastic!
  14. I wish they added a 7 year and 3 year patch to their jerseys. Really important to celebrate their rich history.
  15. Teams that were playoff teams didn’t have the cap space and we didn’t want to retain. That’s why a deal didn’t get done. Columbus has the cap and would like to add more scoring. He would be valuable to them.
  16. Draft position doesn’t mean anything 2 years on. That’s like saying Podkolzin has a ton of value because he was a 10th overall 4 years ago. 11 points in 64 games last season. Nothing is boosting his value much right now. Maybe they’d prefer a prospect or young player like Hoglander but I don’t see his value being more than that. Boeser has more value than a bottom pairing D. Again undervaluing Boeser who would have been 2nd on the Jackets in scoring last season…
  17. If that were true the Yankees would win every year too. Im tired of the manufactured parity of this league. The have teams get punished every season while the poverty franchises get propped up…
  18. Sillinger does not project to be a first line center at all. At this point he’s looking like a third line center. Columbus has Fantilli and Johnson as their top two they can afford to dump Sillinger. A 2nd round pick is a fair price for him. As for Peeke he’s not a cap dump but he definitely doesn’t have more value than Boeser. Columbus is very deep on D and Peeke will be playing on the bottom pair there in no time. He’s as much a top 4 as Gudbranson is. You’re overvaluing these players big time.
