Around the League XXI - Watching from the outside, but not all creepy like a voyeur

While Chiarelli didn’t put any players on notice, he did say, when asked about his penchant for dealing talented young forwards, “that’s something I won’t shy away from.”

Quite a few GM's will be dialing Pete's number. They have a need in goal and on D and young forwards to spare.
And he also said he wants a 'heavier' team , tougher to play against.


And Randy Carlyle is being interviewed by the Sharks

Sounds like Lowe is still on the business side and MacT's et. al.'s fates are in Chiarelli's hands. But it's so Edmonton/Katz to not explicitly fire them

Isn't that pretty common practice? DT worked in the Kings organization until his contract was up. Terry Murray scouted for the Kings after he was removed as coach.

Dubnyk for Vezina is a joke.

 

[damacles1156]

I don't think Dubnyk should have been nominated.

Price wins that trophy anyway, it's not even close. Price carried that awful MTL defense all season.

What a season Price had.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Dubnyk getting a nomination over Schneider is laughable. Embarrassing really.

 

[Bee Sheriff]

I had Corey Schneider at 2nd, Rinne 3rd.

Chiarelli already trying to turn the Oilers into the Bruins lmao

I don't see him working out in Edmonton if he can't work with what he's got

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Doesn't really matter who is nominated for the Vezina, everyone knows Carey Price is going to win it.

What the Oilers have, doesn't work, Chiarelli is a great hire.

Same with the Selke, Toews is a lock.

Well, he needs to turn them into something other than...the Oilers.

Might as well try to make them more like the Bruins since that is the style of play in the Western Conference.

 

[Reclamation Project]

But still, nominating a guy that played 39 games (that's what he's getting nominated for)? Ridiculous.

Who is their Chara and Lucic?

I guess it's the same for a few defensemen who had bad first half of the season, then piled on the points the final 30 plus games to get them the votes.

Las Vegas is taking this seriously!? They chose the colors of black, gold, and gray

There was one little nugget of news regarding the Las Vegas Whatevers during the meet and greet. Foley said the team’s colors will be black, gold and gray, which matches with the color scheme of the United States Military Academy, whose sports teams are known as the Black Knights, the Vegas billionaire’s initial favorite for the team's name.

ya I saw that on incethetics too.
I hope they do not go with the black nights...all the pun headlines when the kings and them play will make me sick.

Better not. I don't want to change my name

 

[kingsfan28]

Dan Boyle went full Dwight King and missed a sure goal high and wide from 4 feet out.

 

[kingsfan28]

Sens are going to take game 5. I really hope they comeback and tie this series.

 

[Reclamation Project]

Sens look young and hungry...

 

[kingsfan28]

See ya on the golf course Pens.

 

[Kingspiracy]

I read on the pens board that Lovejoy had been on the ice for something like 10 of 11 goals scored against them in the series, not sure if true, but what a trade!

 

[Reclamation Project]

Lovejoy for Sea Monkey was a garbage trade by a garbage GM.

 

[Ziggy Stardust]

Trading Despres for Lovejoy was the worst deadline move this year. Jim Rutherford has clearly lost it. That James Neal trade was another huge dud for the horribly managed Penguins.

 

[Reclamation Project]

That moment when you realize Jim Rutherford is your GM during your prime...

Quick.... get him on the phone and sell him on Brown!!!!

Sorry Brownie.... I know you'll recover next year and have a great year...

Wait did NYR win an OT game? That's new.

 

[Jeff18]

Must be so embarrassing for Crosby. What was Lemieux and co. thinking when they hired Rutherford? They got worse from last year.
