    BREAKING.......

     

    Leaked by sources within a prominent Western Conference club, hearing a massive trade is coming down the pipeline out West that could lead to a star player on the move and another club just maybe, finally going from pretender to contender ?

     

    Stay tuned!

    @Mike Vanderhoek Can we double check / bump this Heinola add please for Jan 26?

     

    Thanks as always!

    Not sure if you, or the membership, know how easy it is to see where your team updates are at…

     

    Right below you minors cap totals on the bottom left hand side of your spreadsheet is a line that reads ‘updated - date X’. If you look there you can see what date your sheet is updated to.
     

    In your team’s case it’s Jan 22.

    Coming from you that's the highest praise.

    I do a bit of " scouring" myself and just when I think I have " found" a player after checking the rosters he ends up on yours.

    I have learnt to start with yours.

     

    90% of the guys I think I found, are either on MV or Squeak’s teams :lol:.
     

    I’ve had to buy guys from Squeak for two years in a row now.

    The Washington Capitals would like to acknowledge and congratulate Keith Yandle on breaking the iron man record.

     

    Yandle spent his entire career up until this season as a member of the Caps so I have followed all the ups and downs he has faced on route to this accomplishment. It hasn't been an easy road and this record is a testament to the heart and soul type of guy Keith is. 

     

    No one plays that many games in a row without having immense passion and perseverance and we are thrilled for him.

     

     

     

     

     

     

    Yandle is a beast. He had some amazing years between Arizona and Florida.

    Press Release:

     

    The San Jose Sharks are neither buying, nor selling prior to this trade deadline. Regardless of the Sharks playoff future, we’re committed to starting to build a winner in San Jose, and some of our current playoff-bound players are ideally part of that future. Of course, plans may change.

     

    That being said, we are here to weaponize cap space.

    If your team is looking to add that one playoff piece, but a bad contract is hindering you from doing so, reach out, and we will take that contract off your hands… at a premium of course…

    Much as I want some of your players, I love your strategy. Changing gears to a winner is a process, and takes some awkward growth years. Stick to your plan and listen to nobody. :metal:

    A franchise-altering trade. What more can be said?

     

    When we took over LA we knew we had some work to do - the first thing that happened was we lost Kevin Fiala to the expansion draft due to no protection list being submitted by previous management, and a quick look at the teams draft record over the past three years (one 4th-round selection in 2018 - Matej Parker) and the lack of depth in the system, it was no surprise that looking to the future was a major focus for us. Combine that with the injuries we sustained this year and a decision with a capital R was made: Rebuild.

     

    But the team we inherited had also been very solid over the recent years at the NHL level - sustained playoff success with a number of excellent veterans that deserved the trade-protection they earned. So what could we do? Well, we approached them to chat about our plans for the future and we wanted to do right by them: would these quality veterans at the stages of their careers they were in want to stick around for a likely prolonged rebuild? We would've been very happy to keep them around - but would they have been?

     

    And so it came to be that Sergei Bobrovsky, one of the best starters in a great playoff situation this year, became the focus of multiple trade talks - and one that got very far along with another Eastern team. But some no-trade bumps and situations arose that required some extra time to iron out - and unfortunately for them Columbus came out of the blue with the above offer and we pretty much jumped at the chance. Sure, we needed to approach Mattias Ekholm as well to discuss his future too, but it became clear to both Sergei and Mattias that joining the Blue Jackets and chasing the cup at this point in there careers was optimal for them. We wish them, as well as Ryan Reaves, the best of luck with @Rush17 and his Jackets and thank them for their time as Kings.

     

    As for the return we received, we just felt that adding a pair of quality 25-year-olds in Mackenzie Blackwood and Travis Sanheim would reset our timeline and that they'd be more in line with a contending window a few more years down the road. Getting a young starting netminder and a young top-4 d-man was important to us. But what made us really jump at this opportunity was the chance to bring in Kaiden Guhle - our blueline pipline was barren and we have been on the lookout for a blue-chip defender all season, and Kaiden fits that bill. With both Matthew Coronato and Kaiden Guhle now in the pipeline, all of a sudden we think the future of the Kings looks a whole lot brighter.

    Having served in LA for a season, I’d like to send my congratulations. I had been focusing on not spending the assets, as was only to be there short term. The timing was certainly ideal, and this was the moment to move Bob. Well done!

     

    As far as the expansion draft goes, and as your division rival, don’t Fiala bad about it bro, it wasn’t your fault. :frantic::lol:
