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

[Khelandros]

I like the Nucks and Van has some good posters but their fans are mostly delusional in the same vein as Maple Leafs fans.

Great news for the Blue Jackets, and good news for us.

I wonder how many teams regret not going after Pettersson now. Provorov was the only other top-4 LD available and now he's gone

Say it ain't so. Supposedly the Canes and Rantanen aren't close on a new deal yet.
Some rumblings are starting to surface that he COULD go back on the block.
It'll probably turn out to be a false alarm, click bait. And he signs within a week but nothing's guaranteed in business.
If he's determined to test the market, Carolina management/ownership can't be comfortable dumping assets two years in a row for nothing.
Will be interesting to watch.

Listen I think Tulsky's a very good GM and wish we would've ended up with him over Dubas, but if he trades for Jake and Rantanen in back to back seasons, just for both of them to walk a few months after their trades, that is objectively f***ing hilarious. Just belly laughing, funny shit.

I don’t blame them for going for it. They still have a very good prospect system still, somehow. But if they don’t win the Cup and Rantanen walks then yea- Necas, Bunting, Koivunen, Drury, Ponomarev, Lucius and two 2nds for nothing kinda stings.

Especially with Necas having 4g, 5a in 8 games since, and Rantanen's got 1g, 1a in 6 games.

Some of these players are not like the others

I can’t get over Sportsnets obsession with DOC now that he’s in Vancouver

They must read the trade board

So the 4 nation games won’t be streamed? Looks like they’re just keeping them on cable?

Way to grow the game NHL. Number one way people watch entertainment and your only method of watching is a dying platform.

You might want to check on that again. There are multiple places to stream the games.

Where? Everything I see says a few games on espn+? The TNT ones do not look to be on Max.

They show fubu and sling but those are only ostensibly streaming services since all you’re doing is buying cable through a streaming platform.

It’s exactly what I said. ESPN+ for a couple games and then nothing. All those other apps are just additional services for if you have cable
