Gotta think we're absorbing Bieksa with Lack to lower the price.

going to laugh real hard when buffalo gets lack and bieksa for hodgson and a bad draft pick because benning is an idiot

I've always been a Bieksa fan, so I'd be fine with that. He's not as good as he used to be, but he's still serviceable.

I guess I wouldn't hate acquiring Bieksa, but he's another Gorges that shouldn't be a top pairing guy anymore. Guess they could split time with Bogosian...lol.

This is Bieksa's last year in his contract. No problem at all with taking him on. Helps us get to the floor with a 4.6M cap hit.

Bieksa has a no trade clause, I really don't think he waives for us.

John Scott said goodbye to San Jose, as only John Scott can.

"Thanks to all the fans in San Jose for a good year," Scott wrote in an Instagram post. "I enjoyed my time there even though we had a tough year on the ice...... At least now I can fight some guys on the team who I didn't really like @bgoodrow @christierney71 @loganc89 @brownbeaut18 @tommywingels @hertlik48 @tikot37 ... Wow I guess I didn't like anybody. #onepunch #bodybags #multiplegamesuspension #------bettman #badteammate"

Kings got a sweetheart deal with Toffoli. Saad probably goes for 3.5-4 now.

CGY has fully entered the race to acquire Dougie Hamilton from BOS and may be a top contender to get him. #TSN

Breaking - Flames closing in on Dougie Hamilton. Close to being done deal.

Hamilton is a flame. Done deal.

Talk about out from left field - Burke is clearly trying to steal thunder from rival Edmonton. Pretty bold move - especially when they still have Giordiano to lock up.

As for the Bruins, they have an aging Chara but sustained loss of Boychuk last year and now Hamilton. Their defense doesn't look good.
