Call me ignorant but who did Cale assault? Are they referring to his hit on McCann in the playoffs or are they just lumping him in with the 2018 team Canada stuff?

Just goes to show you how good our fixers are.
Probably need sometime to see if Drouin can rebound, Lando has a shot at returning, they can get Kovalenko over and any of the prospects can make the jump.

The Ristolainen trade and extension is a classic example of a GM who thinks that the player is the same as he was 3-4 years prior. Like the GM is making decisions based on 3 year old scouting reports.
That's what I was kind of afraid of with the Avs and Wood (to a lesser degree, of course).

Maybe that app that Fletcher was using at the trade deadline to help him decide trade values told him to go for Ristolainen?
Fletcher reveals his facepalm tactics at the deadline.
The story that is coming out of Philadelphia continues to deepen and get weirder by the day. During a Town Hall season ticket holder meeting, the beleaguered President and General manager Chuck Fletcher sat down and explained to the crowd their tactics to manage this year's NHL trade deadline day.

Not Great, Bob!
People have wondered about our medical staff but no one ever talks up the fix-it department. That's where the budget is. They also do KGB media control and extortion. Racketeering, sometimes.

The one area where I'm not concerned about is the Avs ability to scout at the pro level. We've heard about multiple guys that theyve wanted over the years (like Kulikov), and they haven't made those moves. There's no doubt they monitor progress and at minimum, take a cursory look at their analytics to make sure cap is properly spent.
He still sucked 3-4 years ago too. But that's not surprising, Chuck Fletcher never should've been allowed near an NHL front office again after he dealt then-prospect (not to mention native Minnesotan) Nick Leddy for Cam f***ing Barker.

Have we signed anybody? Traded anybody? Has anyone else got arrested? This is boring offseason. I need some action!!!!
Yeah I've been "patiently" waiting for the names of the Team Canada players involved to be dropped. I thought it was supposed to be today?

No thanks. He is getting paid close to 8 mil and is coming off a 55 point season.....unless Wash wants to eat half his salary

This is peak stat whacker. They didn't just rely on analytics to bring in DeAngelo and Risto, they had their analytics guy make an app for them to determine whether the trade was fair value or not.
Somehow their stat whacker app said that a 1st (14th overall) two 2nd's, a 3rd, and a 4th for Risto and whacko DeAngelo was fair value. Then they gave them $5M and $5.1M. Then they bought out DeAngelo and are stuck with Risto.
.....and scene.

it’s not even a consideration.
The Avs most likely explored going with one of these guys. RyJo, Kuznetsov, Hayes and picked the one they were most comfortable with regards to cost/quality
Yeah, we could do G in a separate trade but would need to unload him to fit in Kuzy even if we get him in a similar grain to RyJo.

"I will end your bloodline," the suspect allegedly told Scottsdale police."One phone call and you're dead."
Not the kind of shit you want to hear from a Russian millionaire.
We talked about it in the Nuke thread but in the 90's the Russian Mafia was very close to some (all?) Russian NHL players. Hopefully that's not the case anymore.

BIG BOWL 'A CHILI!!
Such a tough guy but he's never thrown a hit in how many years of being in the NHL?
It’s a super messed up thing for someone to say. Pretty sure he’s an American of Belarusian descent though not Russian
