Around the NHL: HOCKEY’S BACK BABY

I hear her and Carol Alt are going to have a donnybrook after this.

Would definitely like to see the sweaters over the head.

Ole Rempe sure eats a lot of punches... he's a gamer tho.

 

[Old Navy Goat]

He's not real good at maintaining his spacing. Needs to better lock up the left arm to push his opponent back

I'm sure if he feels bad, the same folks who put Boogard on oxi will be around to help him with the headaches.

If when he scores the announcer doesn't go: "It's getting stanky in here, the stankoven is heating up!" the wasted opportunity would be immense.

Why are they referencing "An Account of a Visit from St. Nicholas?" A little late for that. Was there not a president's day reference they could have made?

Considering it is Texas and Stankoven is Canadian, that means something about what? Ted Cruz or the Dallas Book Repository? As Carson would say… too soon, too soon.

I am shocked at this report.

Ottawa fans are busy arguing on the main thread, and complaining on their own board.

What does Ottawa need?

A goalie and a legit RHD.

Basically the same stuff we need. I don't think we make good trading partners at all.

They need RHD, like everyone else, and also scoring wingers.

I feel like they have enough grit, so they can go for some speedy, line-driving scoring wingers. I don't think there's a very attractive offer from the Buffalo side unless they just want quantity, like you posted yesterday. But I think they'd prefer something closer to a 1-for-1.

Like Buffalo, they also need the player to not be able to have a choice in where he plays.

Edit: I forgot goaltending, which is obviously #2 right after RHD.

If he gets traded to Buffalo, you are officially required to change your name to "Dream Crapper" for a month.

I didn't think my offer was quantity for quality. Right off the bat, Thompson makes it more than that type of deal. He was the main player from Buffalo who I offered up.

Thompson, Jokiharju, and 2024 1st as the base. UPL or Levi?

Oh yes, I forgot. I think that's an overpay from our side. Even if I didn't think so, I can't imagine Adams doing that for a winger...especially since he seems intent on trading Casey away. I don't want to go back to the days of needing both a #1C AND a top pairing RHD.

Edit: I think a trade around one of the two goalies makes more sense. With us adding, but nothing crazy.

Brady = UPL, JJP, 2024 1st

That's about as much as I can swallow.

I floated my Thompson, Peterka, Jokiharju, and 2024 1st offer on their board just to see how they react, though I also think that's too much.

Holy overpayment Batman. That's a Tim Murray special right there -- one significant piece too much.

You missed my post above?

UPL is getting good enough, and has enough cost-controlled years that it's getting closer to a 1-for-1 as it is. I'd love to know how OTT feels about UPL.

So NJ got a 4th to eat 1.125mil but they gave up signing rights to a goalie prospect

Eh, Brady is finishing his senior year and not really much of a prospect.

For sure, also hate that Oliver didn't pop off the bucket

It's such a good quote from Slapshot.
