  1. I would take Sutter, Pouliot, Despres, 1st round pick (2015) for Kesler. Pouliot is going to be an elite d-man in the league eventually. He's going to be a PP quarterback who can be a game game changer. Despres is already capable of playing top 4 minutes. Bylsma seems to not like him for some reason but he is seriously underrated. He is also huge. And the 1st round pick in 2015 would be a low pick however the 2015 draft is supposedly really deep. I would be able to live with that return for Kesler. If we get Dumoulin however I will be pissed. The guy isn't very good at all. He is a 5-6 d-man at the very most. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if he never makes the NHL. Harrington would be another really nice player to get. Another guy with top 4 potential.
  2. I'll try but I doubt I'll be successful. I don't know where to look. A little off topic but he also said that the Hawks might be interested in Kesler as well (although Stan Bowman, the Hawks GM, said he isn't doing that deal), also said that he doubts the Canucks will trade Edler, and as for the Luongo situation he wonders if there is more going on behind the scenes... meaning he wonders if the Canucks are seeing what the market is for Lu right now.
  3. Eliotte Friedman just said on Hotstove that the Penguins are the most aggressive suitor for Kesler.
  4. This actually pisses me off. Luongo has been treated like absolute crap this past year. Unbelievable. Lu deserves better.
  5. I'm a huge Penguins fan. They're my second favorite team. I have watched every single Penguins game this year and last (thank you NHL centre ice!). I can tell you that Bennett is going to be a stud. 30 goal scorer type stud. Only thing that worries me is his injuries. He's been very injury prone. However all I can think about when I think of this guy is a game against Boston last year (I think it was last year). Bennett was the best player on the ice. He was absolutely flying and just dominated. Who knows what injuries have done to him though... When it comes to Maatta all I can say is wow. This kid is going to be the Penguins number 1 d-man in a few years. He is absolutely unreal. He still makes the occasional mistake but that can be attributed to the fact that he's only 19 years old. I know some of you might think this is far fetched but I see a Norris trophy in this kids future. The rate at which he has improved this year has been un-fricken-real. Like I can't even describe how awesome this guy is going to be. Despres has also been a really, really solid player for the Penguins. He seems to not be liked by Bylsma. Don't understand what that is all about but he is another sold guy. When it comes to Brandon Sutter... meh. He's nothing more than a 3rd line centre. Not that special at all. Honestly if we got Sutter, Pouliot and a 1st from Pittsburgh I would be very disappointed. Kesler is worth way, way more than that. If we got Sutter, Maatta, and a 1st I would be pumped. Now if we could get Bennett and Maatta AND a 1st round pick for Kesler I would throw a god damn parade. With that being said I think Maatta is an untouchable for the Penguins. As he should be. And if I'm the Canucks I don't trade Kesler to the Penguins unless Maatta is involved.

    2 goals tonight. Tied the record for the school.
  7. Defense wins championships.

  8. Great so now Hamhuis is hurt too? Jesus.

  9. I love it and at the same time hate it. I love how Torts is standing up for his team. Frickin absolutely love it. We've been pushed around for far too long. Yet what Torts did definitely crossed a line. Yelling at the coach from the bench is fine but to go to the other team's d-room is too much. I'm so conflicted. I absolutely loved what Torts did even though he was in the wrong.
  10. Aaand Kellan Lain has an NHL record! Fastest to fight in his NHL career. Broke the previous record by about 10 seconds!

      The last record was set 50 years ago. This one might stand for a while.

      So is he the next Oiler first overall pick?

      Sorry, meant to say NHL first overall pick...although I suppose there is no difference

  14. Looking on the positive side of things... Without Edler, Stanton, Burrows, and Luongo we took the top team in the West (Anaheim) and the top team in the East (Pittsburgh) to the brink and very easily could have beat them. You guys can freak out all you want but we're right there with the big boys. The fact that we can compete with them when we're missing some really key pieces is pretty significant. When we're healthy we can definitely beat these teams. IMO this team has a lot of potential. We are so close. With a couple of tweaks this team can compete for the Cup. We need to add a piece or two at the deadline and we have to get lucky (everyone who wins the Cup has luck on their side), but I think we have a legitimate shot at making a solid run for the Cup this year.
  15. I haven't been able to watch the last couple games but has Booth's play really been so bad that he's gotten to the point that he's a healthy scratch again?
