Boo! lol

The dream is dead

 

[effen]

Can't believe no one wanted 33 y/o Nic Dowd with a career high of 25 points for a first f***ing round draft pick.

My God the insanity of trying to speak that shit into existence.

 

[will1066]

Drury wants that ex Columbus magic with Wennberg and Roslovic like those years when we swapped rosters with them.

 

[Guyute]

Trouba, Kakko, and Goodrow will lead us to the holy land, the Canyon of Heroes, this summer. Then we sell them away for full value this summer.

At least, that's the dream

 

[Circus86]

I will tell stories to my Grandchildren about this.

[Profet]

Who actually "develops" here? Okay, I am being an asshole. Sorry. Thank Jim Beam extra aged.

Adam Fox....

 

[Bacon Artemi Bravo]

That's gotta be the end of the queue - Wennberg / Roslovic / Ruhwedle.

It's really up to Zibanejad now.

 

[effen]

I woulda swore Nic Dowd and his 41% 5v5 Corsi this year woulda been a hot commodity, so weird.

 

[HockeyBasedNYC]

Youre not bringing in another big star personality in Kane or Guentzel or Hertl or Pacioretty or Tank or Lindholm.

I like that because it doesnt bruise the weird mental frailty of this group.

 

[Mr Mxyzptlk]

Hmm, I was actually hoping to move our first and really go for it, but if the deals weren't there, the deals weren't there. I'm glad we didn't move Othmann or Gabe. Glad we didn't move Kakko.

Yeah, just wish we had utilized our first and some prospects, but there has to be another partner for that to actually work.

This team had too many holes to "really go for it"....more than trading our first rounder could hope to fix. I'm happy Drury kept his eye on the long-term without screwing up the team with moves similar to last year.

 

[will1066]

Pretty sure Nikita Okhotiuk is not real

[HatTrick Swayze]

Smart by Drury to generally show restraint.

If this group flops again this franchise is gonna be at another big crossroads this summer.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Boo! lol

Wow big moves happening, deadline is truly not over

 

[Gardner McKay]

Because we have much bigger holes .

Like? Trouba? Nothing was happening at the deadline for him or Lindgren.

 

[EpicDing]

I think Drury is giving this group another kick, with some retooling this summer

 

[Filip Chytil]

 

[Gardner McKay]

I am, I said like 2 posts ago that I'm giving Drury an A for his restraint.

We retained the assets to go get what really matters - big game hunting for a 1C and first pair D come the offseason when we can dump Trouba and maybe Mika.

That's fair. There was no way we were fixing Trouba/Lindgren at the deadline. Those are off-season moves. Ziibby too.

1st +

That right side is garbage... and has zero depth.

I'm happy we didn't trade the farm for a crappy RW... but this is not a cup caliber team.

Doesn't matter what they do == We've been at that big crossroads all along....come summer, Drury will have some/more flexibility to begin making real changes.

Old School Pearl Jam on a NHL commercial, nice!
