Rush17 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 (edited) Very pleased to see Jack finally get moved IRL. It has been a bit of a long couple of days with his name trending on twitter constantly. I knew that might be the case though when we acquired Jack on Oct 7th, 2021 just shy of 4 weeks ago. It is a relieving feeling knowing such a talented hockey player can hopefully soon return to the game of hockey that he dearly loves. The whole situation in Buffalo from the start was a mess. I can't believe they had mcdavid billboards up in Buffalo prior to the draft lottery Lol. On that note though we are thrilled Jack has found a new home and we look forward to seeing him return to the ice in the next 3-5 months if all goes well. He will certainly missed by Team USA this coming olympics but that is how things shaped out. I appreciate them getting the deal done today - I had been constantly refreshing twitter for the last 3 days so its nice knowing I no longer need to check that lol. (I'm sure ill be checking daily for updates on his operation date but hey :D soon enough) Eichel had a 1 on 1 interview (it appears post trade) that will be airing in its entirety at 2pm PST on Tim and Friends! I would recommend catching it if you have the time to do so! We wish Jack well and a speedy recovery! Edited November 4, 2021 by Rush17 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Rush17 Posted November 4, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted November 4, 2021 Center Jack Eichel We are thrilled to officially announce an operating room for Jack has been scheduled. We were thrilled to acquire Jack four weeks ago and it has been a challenging but rewarding wait. As I have been dealing with health issues of my own. It appears I have been cleared to return to work in 2 weeks time and Jack is getting his long overdue surgery! We made a few moves which lead us eventually to the acquisition of Jack Eichel. Moves that were independent but remarkably opened up the opportunity and cap space to acquire him. We were going to do a detailed press conference upon acquiring him but we really didn't have the full details of his situation. To CBJ: Jack Eichel Kyle Turris Filip Berglund Brennan Othmann STL 2022 1st Round Draft Selection Conditional 2022 4th Round Draft Selection Out of CBJ: Pierre-Luc Dubois Samuel Girard ($1 million retained by CBJ for 2021-22) Antoine Roussel Ryan Hartman Johan Larsson Serron Noel Connor Bunnaman Conditional Pick (4th Round Pick) Our former team captain Pierre-Luc Dubois was moved out west to the St Louis Blues. A move that saddened many fans as they saw their team's captain and longest serving Jackets teammate depart. Dubois has started off strong in STL 11 points in 9 NHL games. The Blues have greatly benefited as they sit 7th in the GML with the arrivals of Dubois and some of its young talent in Lundell and Seider. Sam Girard was a extremely highly regarded member of the Jackets blueline. Their clear #2 defenseman - unfortunately to pry Eichel free of the Carolina Hurricanes grip we were forced to move the amazingly skilled young Sam Girard who had a major breakout season last year. Girard was on arguably one of the best contracts league wide for any defenseman. The addition of Kyle Turris was to hope to bring some leadership to the club. He has paid off in his off ice contributions but his on ice play has been lackluster to start. We are thrilled to add a high end prospect like Brennan Othmann. A player we believe could be a useful top 6 forward in a couple years time. We had hoped the STL pick would be in the lottery conversation but its clear the Blues have other plans! Kudos to @Devron44 on taking such a bold risk and having such a talented young team. We hope our high risk move acquiring Eichel has similar effects on our franchise moving forward! The Jackets have offered a long year extension to winger Kirill Kaprizov - they remain hopeful the two sides can come to an agreement. The team acquired Eichel to give Kirill a high end center to play with. With Dubois' departure however the team is currently captainless. The team plans to roll with 3 A's in the interim until we have an idea of who steps up in the locker room. Thanks to all the teams involved! IT took 5 teams to make these deals come to fruition. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HighOnHockey Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Mikael Granlund is available. I was thinking I'd wait until deadline or next summer, and maybe still will, but he's off to a pretty hot start so hit me up. Three years left on his contract, making 5.625 this year, 6.5 next year, and 7 the final year. I am only able to offer retention on next season. Mostly looking for futures but since it is early in the season I'd also need some calibre of NHL player to help me ice a complete roster. Something like a rookie who isn't doing much yet but has some upside, plus a good pick or prospect would be cool. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gator Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Maple Leafs are looking for an upgrade in net. Willing to package Matt Murray and Colin White together if the right one becomes available. Would require them to be on a contender, and would like retention for this year and next. Willing to add to the offer for the right piece(s) Cheers!

HighOnHockey Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 (edited) Among rumours and speculation running rampant following the relief of HOH from his post as Rangers GM, a lot of questions are coming up around the Rangers organization as a whole. After the previous GM left the organization a contract catastrophe, HOH wasted no time getting to work clearing out bad contracts and piling up assets, but amidst reports of inappropriate conduct, TSN's Ryan Rishaug is asking the question: "how did this vile human being attain such a coveted, honoured job in the first place?" An almost complete unknown around CDC, more information is coming to light suggesting that this manager has a long, repetitive history of this kind of behaviour. "How was he given the job in the first place? Do the Rangers not conduct background checks?" Allegations now surfacing around Blue Jackets GM Rush, who had a close personal relationship with HOH and knew very well about his behavioural tendencies, yet still recommended HOH for a position in GML. A quote from an anonymous source inside the Rangers organization: "we knew full well about HOH's checkered past, as he's been banned many times from HFBoards and various forums and fantasy leagues, but ownership determined he is just such a goddamned hockey genius that the ends justified the means." So shortly after the recent firing of LuckyLager, GML has been plagued by controversy recently, and this marks yet another dark spot on the league's reputation.

Gator Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 I feel if we had a healthy Hughes, White, Byfield, and Virtanen was in the league as we anticipated we would be in much better shape. I think us being this close while dealing with the injuries we have says a lot about how far we have came in just 1 offseason. After really looking over oir team we feel in 2 years we will be in serious contention. In the mean time we are going to do our best to make a strong push to getting into the playoffs. There has been way too much losing in Toronto in the CDCGML, and that is about to change. Thats a promise! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
