If anyone wants to take a flier on a reclamation project, Emile Poirier is available from Colorado. Looking for a 5th this year for the former 1st round pick that now has his off ice issues sorted out

Man... I just googled him and read he has alcohol issues... I've recently learned drinking problems are really no joke. I hope he can recover. I feel for the guy... I've recently had someone very close to me develop this issue too and it's been incredibly hard to watch and very difficult to get help. 

 

The clinics just give you referrals and there's very little follow up with the patient. It's almost impossible to fix this when you're deep into it. Hopefully he has people around him that care about him and can help. I'm literally in the middle of trying to save this person in my life right now for the past few weeks and it's just terrible.

Paul Martin and David Warsofsky have cleared waivers. 

I swear I got mocked by someone for giving Martin up for Sbeezus a season or two ago! Boom!

Yeah it can absolutely de-rail a life and I'm really surprised and impressed he reached out and was public about the issue. So many people hide it and push away help. I hope that person in your life can move in the right direction, it's a tough path

I’d say in general this is the natural reaction for most people - which personally I find very ironic. Everyone has issues and the fact that people with drug and alcohol addictions are often neglected and or looked down on baffles me. I do understand that some people have chosen that lifestyle, but if you’re trying to get out of it there should be no shame in that. Definitely hope he has support for sure.

I hope that person is able to come out of it, as well as anyone else who might be affected by this.

 

Also,  probably not the best post to use the hydration button @D-Money...

The Canucks do have pieces the Pens are seeking.  

 

I'd think they have interest in re-acquiring Sutter, and possibly Gudbranson or Hutton.

 

IDK if Van can afford to move Sutter with their lack of depth at C...  but if the plan is to sign Gaudette and bring back the Sedins, I suppose they could move Sutter if they are happy with Dowd as their depth shutdown C.

 

 

 

...wait.... is this legit, or a fantasy post?? lol

Fantasy!

 

Some guys will make fake tweets or news stories up to add to the fun. @apollo always has some good ones, with running gags (Crosby being inferior to the current or ex-Canucks).

oof

Well it was a sickening and predatory hit, so with his previous history, I'd estimate his punishment being a $5,000 fine -_-

San Jose Sharks players available and not expensive:

Ian McCoshen (22, FLA, 2.1 FPTS/G)

Joe Morrow (25, MTL, 2.7 FPTS/G)

Fredrik Claesson (25, OTT, 2.4 FPTS/G)

Jacob de la Rose (22, MTL, 1.9 FPTS/G)

Darren Helm (30, DET, 3.0 FPTS/G)

 

Recent PIT´s call up Jean-Sebastien Dea available super cheap also (don´t plan to resign him)

 

We can also talk about deals including young star:

Dylan Larkin (21, DET. 4.5 FPTS/G)

 

And I am open to talk more players, prospects and picks.

We are looking for Play-off assets and picks for the 2018 draft. We can´t take more cap.

Got lots of free time today. So I wanna talk trades

 

Bobby Ryan (Top 6 F) - Asking price... Mid 6 F, 2nd/prospect 

 

Alex Goligoski (Top 4 D) - Asking price... Either another top 4 with term, or a D prospect + Pick

 

Pat Maroon (Mid 6 F) - Asking price... Good prospects, top 6 playoff F

 

These are my 3 biggest trade assets atm. Or at least guys I'm looking to deal. All putting up great numbers. 

 

Other players I am listening on are - Alex Steen, Nikolay Goldobin, Matt Hunwick... don't really have prices for them yet as I'm not sure what id want.

Wow for once I'll be happy when the old buys club pulls in a favor and only slaps him on the wrist. 

 

He deserves a career ending suspension tbh and I haven't even looked at the clip :lol:
