Around the League '18-'19

[Bandit]

If only everyone could be perfect posters, making the perfect posts about what other posters post. Try saying that 3 times fast.

Nah, it's not that, it's the constant repetition of the same tired discussion. I seriously wonder what some people are like at home when there's nothing going on. Do the just sit in their living rooms going...

"The sky is blue..."
"The sky is blue..."
"The sky is blue..."
"The sky is blue..."

Because something must be coming out of their mouths at all times?

One of the unknowns I would like to know is whether or not Richards was already inside the NHL's drug rehab program.

The real issue is the NHL Drug Testing Program.

I've never understood why people complain about what's being discussed, especially in the middle of July, the deadest time of the year for the NHL. That is the great thing about internet forums, sometimes conversations can grow and be discussed organically, look at what is being discussed in the Kovalchuk thread. I mean if you don't want to discuss something, just move on the next post, or in a thread like this just change the topic on your own. You know making a post in here talking about Ottawa's issues or what's going on in Montreal rather than getting mad at people for talking about hockey or hockey from the past in a hockey forum.

Even tho I am guilty of being an ass hole, so much this Herby. I need to remember this, myself.

At least nobody whines about McSorley's ****ing stick any more.

HEY! I resemble that remark!

 

[KingTrouty]

I love how candid Drew is.

I just absolutely adore him, Ziggy.

I feel for Lumbus. Panarin is gone once he hits UFA. I don't think it's a coincidence he tossed out that 2 year comment. Since he has a year left, that would mean 3 years from now.

Kings would need a 1LW in 3 years.

Damn #Lumbus. So many top tier players want to leave Ohio.

Hmm sounds vaguely familiar before 2012 and 2014 happened.

CBJ gonna be booing every player in the league if this keeps up

More astronauts from Ohio than any other state. What is it about Ohio that makes people want to leave the God damn planet?

Ask Lebron James , he claims to love it their ( even won the state a NBA championship ) and he left TWICE .

I do not understand why Kulak is on waivers right now.

 

[deeshamrock]

Depending on the outcome, Trouba might be moving on. There were rumors they were trying to trade him, I think that what he wants is the reason he didn't go anywhere

To be fair, they've also produced the 2nd most presidents of any state behind Virgina (though one could construe that as the ultimate desire to rise above one's roots I suppose...)

I can't either his arbitration hearing isn't until MOnday. Maybe an attempt for him to lower his asking price and avoid ? I'd rather have him that Sekera

not sure I would go that far, but Kulak isn't going to cost over $5m that is for damn sure.

And most were elected during a time where it was either a Virginian or an Ohioan(?).

I'm trying to remember which player/team it was, but I do recall a team waiving a player during a contract negotiation if only to show the player/agent that he wasn't as valued as they were claiming.

The player I was thinking of was a very forgettable 4th liner. Eventually dawned on me that I was thinking of Stephane Veilleux: Stephane Veilleux clears waivers; Minnesota Wild say winger’s price is too high – Twin Cities

The Wild won their game of chicken with Stephane Veilleux on Thursday morning when the checking wing cleared waivers.

Minnesota placed Veilleux, 26, on waivers Wednesday when the restricted free agent turned down the team’s latest contract offer. The Wild hoped Veilleux would clear waivers and realize his asking price was too steep.

haha...I always actually liked Veilleux and thought he would turn into more than he did. That is mostly because he was awesome for me in some EA sports game.

Would you guys trade Muzzin for Trouba? Would Winnipeg?

Depending on what locking him up would look like absolutely.
I doubt Winnipeg does.

If it's a deal for $5.95 mil, 7ish years, I'd be all over that. Higher than that and the deal becomes problematic. I don't think Trouba is worth $6, but probably very close to it. We'd probably have to send over a prospect or a pick along with Muzzin.
