Ritchie having the kind of game that gets you traded in the off season.
Boston was the absolute worst landing spot for him. Kid needed a change of scenery but really needed to go somewhere that would help him rein in his temper and make better decisions so he can spend more time on the ice instead of in the box.

Tampa looks decent but they need to get healthy for round 3 so they destroy whichever one of the evil twosome that advances from the other series.

Was going to mentioned that he's kind of reminding me of the stuff Kadri was doing as a Leaf in their first rounds against the Bruins
it's a shame the Rangers did not sign Goodrow when he was at their prospect camp in 2012. another one that got away

Yeah, because they could have totally predicted he'd be an NHL player one day. He went undrafted several times. This is some hindsight 20/20 stuff right here
"another one that got away" LOL

Nick Ritchies a moron but he’s pretty good. If Boston are done with him i’d love to take a swing
Do you guys hear that?
It's the sound of Boston's window slamming shut.

This is a bad hockey team.
Perfect timing for our ascendency. Caps, Pens and Bs all heading downhill.

Need a Western Conference team to slam the door shut on whatever comes out of the East.
I'm not sure that we didn't at least try to sign Goodrow. They obviously liked him. I mean they had Zaitsev at functions over multiple years. He chose to sign elsewhere. Same for Sustr. Matt Read. We had JAM in PDC and Hartford, tried to sign him but he went elsewhere. Several others that went on to be drafted. Lots of times these guys are in multiple camps--Goodrow was also there in LA. Sometimes you make them offers and they go elsewhere.
We've done fine with UDFA players like Pionk, Goergiev, Talbot, Zucarello, Girardi, and other lesser guys over the years like an Ortmeyer or someone. I wager one of our college UDFAs this year will have an NHL career.
It's tough to find UDFAs that are good enough to make it AND get them to sign with you. Once the guys start making noise, there is competition.

yeah, we’ll likely have company in a few year though. Ottawa has some nice prospects and many picks, Devils adding three more #’1 and the Flyers are going to be a PITA. We’re looking good though.

This is a bad hockey team.
Luckily we have a major advantage over the Sens and Devils in attracting free agents. Also the Flyers best forwards are long in the tooth and their young replacements aren't as talented as ours.

Not yet at least, watch these next two drafts ... booooi, they will have some farm going on.
There is some great talent coming up, the league is gonna get more exciting!
Personally I'll be keeping a side-eye on Detroit in the future. Seider will anchor German hockey into a new age, I'm tellin' ya.

Was it not obvious to everyone here upon seeing the conditions of the McDonagh trade that 2019-20 was the year Tampa would win the Cup?

I'd still take him here with open arms. He's the kind of player this team needs if he can get his temper under control.

Carolina, Columbus, and Philly are all still going to be problems. The Islanders will always be close to playoff contention as long as they have Trotz. He's a top 5 coach in the league.

Carolina with a goalie would be quite problematic. CBJ seems like they have a ceiling of round 1 playoff spoiler. Philly is gonna get AV'd so they dont worry me going forward.
A Florida team that gets their shit together would scare the f*** out of me.
He'd be an intriguing project. There's skill there to work with and I think his underlying numbers in Anaheim were pretty solid. I'm just not sure where he fits into the lineup. Maybe a 3LW if Kreider gets moved to the right.
