Around the League - PLAYOFFS!?

[ACC1224]

And if Reaves wasn't signed to the largest contract of the three, we could have had Lafferty on the team still and have room to sign Gregor.

Bertuzzi, Domi and Klingberg were all signed for more than Reaves.

None of those guys are in discussion for the last roster spot (or two) on forward.

You claimed Gregor was what made Lafferty a casualty. Signing Reaves is what squeezed out Lafferty, and Gregor earned a spot in training camp.

They have x amount of money to divide up for the entire team, it's not portioned out by line.
Agreed, Gregor earned a spot over Lafferty.

 

[Dekes For Days]

Agreed, Gregor earned a spot over Lafferty.

No, Gregor earned a spot over other potential league minimum options, to fill the last forward spot when Lafferty was traded for cap reasons after Reaves was handed his money and roster spot.

I hope to see the day this board stops talking about this trade and what happened and how it played out.

Don't worry. I'm sure this board would never keep bringing up a minor depth move over and over again for years, every time the departed player does something competent.

Well in fairness to Dubas' gaff trades, we should keep a log of Treliving's as well.

Is it possible for both tampa and pens to lose and not get any points tonight

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Some great matchups tonight

DAL @ FLA
PIT @ TB
VGK @ STL
CAR @ EDM

You need to set your expectations a little lower.

Yup, lots of good games tonight. I love watching the games I'm not emotionally invested in. Vegas/STL should be a real good one. No one is talking much about St. Louis, but that is a nice retool they have done there.

Does it matter? Neither of those teams are a threat to win anything.

I hope to see the day this board stops talking about this trade and what happened and how it played out.

And it's over possibly two of the most inconsequential players in the league. This isn't exactly Tkachuk for Huberdeau....

I'm not buying their decent start. They're kind of a mess in the defensive zone but Binnington has been bailing them out. I think they'll crash back down to earth, but the West has so many mediocre teams after the top 4-5, that they'll still have a good shot at the playoffs.

Dallas desperately needs help on D as it gets really dicey after Heiskanen and Harley. The former has Suter's corpse as a partner.

Personally i have them as one of my destinations for tanev

 

[LeafalCrusader]

Tampa's going to have played 5 more games than us 2 months in. Schedule is so stupid.

 

[Dr.Funk]

When you thought you've seen it all

 

[ULF_55]

Yes, life is very expensive, complain about everyday things that families need and I'm right there with you.
Upset that one can't afford an $18 beer is a little crazy.

Believe me, I'm thankful every day for everything my family has and I don't take it for granted.

Spending hundreds on entertainment is a luxury.

One does feel for those who, through no fault of their, can't house or feed family.

Being jealous cause I can't go on a world cruise like my parents inlaw is a waste of energy.

 

[BallardEra]

Tampa up 3-0 on the Pens.

Yeah I think they're right at the top of the list. They need a solid RD to move Heiskanen back to LD and push Suter down

 

[PROUD PAPA]

Beautiful passing on that Hayes goal.

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Thanks for nothing, Dallas and Pittsburgh.

Oettinger wasn't very good

 

[Havoc]

Have you guys seen the Canucks top 12 forwards. Lafferty's numbers would plummet if he came here.

Let him enjoy being on a team with less pressure and pad his stats a little taking Pettersson passes.

Their last 10 games record indicates things are normalizing.

Canucks /= Leafs

Closed door meeting for the Pens!

Wonder if Dubas is throwing around Excel sheets.

Lafferty has only been on that line for a game or 2.

He was on the 3rd/4th line for almost the entire season.

He still wouldn't have the same numbers here as he would be on the 4th line playing 5 mins a night

 

[3blizzard4]

3-0 Edmonton over the Canes not even half way past the 1st period.
