I hope we can do better than Gourde and Tanev.

I doubt we're going for Gourde & Tanev, we need middle six wingers (which we're rumored to be in on with Tuch and were rumored to be pushing hard with on Saad).

Right now we have 11 forwards on roster, something is definitely coming.

I hope Atkinson clears, doesn't have a fit on the roster but think he'd be really nice to have in the locker room on a playoff run.

Sheary is being called up to save the day. Nothing to see here.

I swear if JBB trades for Boeser, I am going to punch my monitor.

Punch it now so you're ahead of the game. If he doesn't, now you have a reason to buy a new monitor. Win/win. Your welcome.

I'm not saying JBB absolutely *has to* make his moves today. But if you have made up your mind, make your move before someone else does. We're fortunate McDonagh fell into our lap after missing out on Hanifin

I expect something to be done today, once it's announced Atkinson and Brown cleared.

 

[RussianGuyovich]

it's me, im the one believing in isaac howard making an impact on the forward lineup. look at me gooooooo!

I think we (or are least I did) overreacted and there's nothing even agreed to on paper yet. Otherwise there is a really good chance the person we're trading for was exposed to potential injury risk by playing last night

It's perhaps more possible JBB made up his mind yesterday but hasn't called yet

Lightning serving notice as Cup contender with latest surge | NHL.com

Tampa Bay on 10-1-1 stretch heading into home game against Sabres

www.nhl.com

The Tampa Bay Lightning have found a winning formula that is serving notice to the rest of the NHL that they’re capable of making another run at the Stanley Cup this season.
The Lightning (36-21-4) have gone from a team battling for a wild card spot in the Eastern Conference to pushing toward the top of the Atlantic Division by going 10-1-1 in their past 12 games […].

“It’s a pretty confident group,” Lightning coach Jon Cooper said. “A lot of people think of the Tampa Bay Lightning as scoring a bunch of goals, but we’re doing with defense. That’s been the key for us in this little stretch and couldn’t be coming at a better time as we’re going down the stretch here and trying to solidify a playoff spot. So, hopefully, we can just keep this going.”

“For my money, they’re as good a team as we’ve faced this year,” Washington Capitals coach Spencer Carbery said after losing 3-1 to the Lightning on March 1. “I think their team is extremely formidable.”

It would be hard to argue with any of that.

Despite BriseBois indicating that's it, I'd be surprised if he sees Goncalves as an everyday player in the playoffs. I'm getting greedy but would like someone better suited for being a 12th forward.

I guess they could go Gourde-Paul-Goncalves and put Chaffee on the 4th but still.

I’m wondering if he moves perbix and finds a better depth defenseman Friday?

There is a possibility. Its JBB and he still has draft picks left. Specifically another Second round pick this year. If there is some real creativity, could get 2 roster players out of it.
