Interesting day. Jarnkrok to Calgary it sounds like. I’m betting we could have beat the offer and he’d have been a fantastic add along with Vatrano. Sounds like Chiarot to Florida as well. Big Hertl extension 8x8+. Things heating up.

Wonder where Giroux goes now, Panthers still have Tippet to start a deal with but not much else
 
Islanders too. Don't think they'll make it , but would be nice to stomp them down tomorrow.
Don't think they'll make it? LOL. Not a chance. They are 19 points behind Washington with 25 games to go. It's over and the more points they get the more it hurts their draft position. I see them finishing about 10th in the east which would be the worst thing that could happen to them.
 
Wonder if Gorts and Drury teamed up on those Florida moves. They are a better team, but not by much for what they gave up. We'll see what else they add I guess.
 
I just got used to Yarn Crook playing in Seattle.
 
Surprised Jarnkrok got back such a strong return, and I understand why we would pass on that. Other options out there. Jarnkrok could still be a UFA target depending on price this summer. I think we still have another top nine type coming.

It's fair, especially since how cheap Jarnkrok is.

Career year for Jarnkrok, can play W or C, and can PK. 2nd seems fair and the other picks for retaining (2023 and 2024 picks). For 1M, that's a hell of a 'swiss army knife' of a player.
 
Stars over the Canadiens in OT. Stars are outside of a Wildcard spot by 1pt. They have 2 games in hand on Preds, and 4 games in hand on the Knights.

Caps beat up on the Jackets. They are 3pts behind the Rangers in the Metro.

Leafs beat the Canes in regulation. Leafs rookie netminder won 2 in a row. Canes came back in the 3rd but too little too late. Leafs now 1pt behind Toronto in the Atlantic.

Oilers with another big win over the Sabres. Leon pots his 40th goal on the season. Oilers won 4 in a row! They are 2pts ahead of Vegas in the Pacific with 2 games in hand.

Kings over the Sharks. They pick up a big 2 pts, and are still in 2nd in the Pacific. Kempe scored #26th. They play tomorrow afternoon vs the Knights. Sharks seem done. 10pts out of the wildcard.

Flyers give Giroux a nice sendoff. The beat the Preds in regulation. Preds are tied with the Wild in pts in the Central, but Wild have 2 games in hand. Preds sit in the 1st wildcard spot.

F’n Islanders! Pitt 2 pts ahead of the good guys. Rangers have a game in hand.

Pens win in OT vs the Blues. Wild are 3pts behind them in the Central with a game in hand.

Wings shutout the Canucks. Canucks are 3 pts out of the Wildcard with a game in hand on the Knights.

Knights woke up and ended their 5 game losing streak with a big win over the Panthers. Howden got his 9 goal on the season. He’s got 20 pts in 43 games.

If the Caps manage to overtake us (we have a tough stretch ahead and their schedule and ours is pretty even the rest of the way), then we will probably end up in the last wild card spot. Would it even be a bad thing? Going up against Florida or Carolina in the first round? Just get it out of the way.

The only team i want to stay away from is the Lightning. They know how to win.

11 of the Caps remaining games are against teams in playoff position.

I think the Rangers have 8.

Not really the same thing down the stretch.
 
Noah Dobson is having a breakout season on Long Island . He is 22 and a RFA . What is best thing for him? I say get out of there ASAP . Will Isles go short or long on him ? He could be a 8- 10 million dollar guy soon if he keeps tracking & on a real bad team for 5-6 more seasons . Can he be offer sheeted ? I think there is a note on his Arbitration Status saying needs one more season ? I'm not sure how that works. I thought as soon as the ELC was over he would be eligible ? What is the best way for him to get to the biggest payday the fastest and out of NY ? What would his agent be thinking right now ?

Don't think they're a "real bad team", will be bubble for a few years.
