OT: Around the NHL: JR is about to wake up from his nap and make trades and such

[Turin]

Very nice of Calgary to fleece Philly like that

 

[SomeDude]

Dear Lord, please let the Flyers actually be stupid enough to choose Torts over Michkov.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Torts is hilarious. What a wild situation.

Man do we really need Sully gone by the time we get new blue-chippers.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Looks like a dam solid deal for Calgary depending on picks going back the other way

 

[Zirakzigil]

Bold move Flyers. Pelts is a great energy and locker room guy though.

 

[OtherThingsILike]

Fleury became the first goalie to record a shutout as a teenager and as a 40+-year-old.

 

[eXile3]

Michkov and Torts not getting along has to be the most predictable thing ever.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I know he wouldn't work here because of ... reasons ... but I've wanted Kuzmenko for a while.

 

[End of Line]

Bold move Flyers. Pelts is a great energy and locker room guy though.

Flyers got bent over

Again, it's gonna be hilarious if the Canucks end up going from one win away from the SCF to having to trade both JT Miller and EP40.

I think it'll be one or the other. Unless the majority left despises EP because JT got traded.

Well I imagine bridges have been burned pretty badly with the whole public airing of shit.

Also, the Jackets are apparently making a big run at EP40, while the Rangers just now have traded for JT Miller.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

The Rantanen-Necas deal looks like it's gonna be one of those rare cases where both teams win the trade. Both big names look fantastic for their new teams.

 

[BHD]

Necas has the leeway to play his game in Colorado.

 

[The Old Master]

love ya jr

love ya jr

I'm still mildly stunned this wasn't Vancouver's 1st.
The chances are miniscule at best. But the Rags pick can be anywhere from 14 this year to top 10 next year. Like I said, I think it's highly unlikely they finish bottom 10 next year. But, stranger things have happened.
Have to give Dubas some props here.

 

[Turin]

Good start to the Rangers pick era so far

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Rangers might still suck, good news.

 

[The Old Master]

Rangers might still suck, good news.

bos. is winning 5-2 right now

 

[Empoleon8771]

I want the Rangers to win just enough so that their 1st comes in at like 15th overall.

Did Sully write this script for Torts?

Sullivan learned everything he knows about "developing" talent from Torts

I'm laughing, but it's also true.
