Looks like Michkov is coming.

That SJ/NSH trade is abit of an odd one. Afanasyev has some game, big winger. Gave the Griffs a lot of trouble in their playoff series. Not sure why Nashville didn't want to try him out(kind of like Berggren and Johansson, I believe he was no loner waiver exempt).

The rumor was Afanasyev wanted a guarenteed spot on the main roster or he would go back to Russia. While I didnt see the harm in trying him out, I could also see why Trotz was like "I cant promise that" and traded him if true.

Got force fed a lot of bad info from the "experts" about his timeline...

Or there’s some underhanded dealings with SKA to get him over.

He did have a deal through 25-26, he terminated it, which wasn't an expected thing.

Disappointing we didn't take a look given the low price

That's a lot of term and money left on his deal, and also he lost the job to Ned.

Yeah, that topic on the trade board of

15 + Berggren + Husso for Tristan Jarry?

God, that was a ludicrously awful trade proposal.

that Markstrom deal is going to have every team with a half decent goalie thinking it can pull a 1st in these deals now.

When they get in, for sure should be together.

Ottawa trades a 1st, Korpisalo and parts for Ullmark. Holy overpay, Batman.

I see Korpisalo reviving his career in Boston while Ottawa tanks Ullmark. That team should have been trading for defensemen and bottom 6 forwards if they wanted meaningful improvement.

Janmark with a Cup Finals game 7 goal, good for him.

Very few great players can look like garbage the way Draisatl can sometimes.

There's definitely some satisfaction that a spotpicking rat like Perry loses again chasing the Cup. Especially given whatever he did was bad enough to get his contract cancelled but then the league allowed him back a couple months later.

What's the record for most cup final appearances ending in a loss?

I think Howe has it. Like 7-8? Someone asked on the mains a while back.

Just did a quick n dirty, he has 7 playoffs with more than 7 games played and no cup win. Pretty sure playoffs were only 2 rounds most of his career.

Howe is one of a few...but Perry is alone as a 4 different team loser

Didn’t we trade him and the pick that became Roope Hintz for Erik Cole?
