And this is a trade and extend candidate that many wanted the Sabres to go after...

Just means he isn't working out for the Devils... he could've went to Avs and be on pace for 40. Nobody believes Timo Meier just forgot how to play hockey or was being carried by someone on SJ. This looks like the exception not the norm
 
Finished Episode 2 of 6 of the Borje Salming tonight, pacing is fairly slow, I expect it will ramp up though with this episode ending with him signing the Leafs contract and flying to Toronto.

Who cares how he would look on the Avs? The question is would be look a ton better in Buffalo? Given how much the entire roster has regressed, I highly doubt that Meier would have been a guy that could have changed that trend. Given what he has done in NJ, it is way more likely that he would be yet another disappointment here than the answer.

No way of knowing.

I'm not sure the setting in Buffalo vs NJ matters at all. IMO the bigger poison is guaranteed contracts. Way too many examples over the years of guys putting their feet up before the ink dries.

Regardless of contract length/guarantees, I think it was a mistake to pay Meier like he was going to be a consistent PPG+ player going forward. He’s never put up those kind of numbers over a full season (though he was only 1 point shy of PPG in 21-22). He got paid like a superstar, but he’s never been that.

So apparently Tom Wilson tried to injure Merzlikins multiple times in the game including a slew foot and slashing his glove. Just read the story. Wilson is the worst.

Elvis Merzlikins goes berserk on Tom Wilson: ‘I’m pretty sure he was trying to get me hurt. He got what he deserved.’

The Washington Capitals defeated the Columbus Blue Jackets 3-2 in overtime on Thursday thanks to a huge goal by Alex Ovechkin. But…

Wilson is the worst... I'd love to have him

Giving this a listen:



Kicking off asking if the PA playing the Leaf goal song as a troll or the Caps use of the Elvis being mocked by the whole Caps team after the loss last night as the bigger trolling.
 
This is the exact player Buffalo needs right now. Never gonna happen but dare to dream.
