We sincerely apologize for the extended downtime. Our hosting provider, XenForo Cloud, encountered a major issue with their backup system, which unfortunately resulted in the loss of some critical data from the past year.
What This Means for You:
- If you created an account after March 2024, it no longer exists. You will need to sign up again to access the forum.
- If you registered before March 2024 but changed your email, username, or password in the past year, those changes were lost. You’ll need to update your account details manually once you're logged in.
- Threads and posts created within the last year have been restored.
Our team is working with Xenforo Cloud to recover data using backups, sitemaps, and other available resources. We know this is frustrating, and we deeply regret the impact on our community. We are taking steps with Xenforo Cloud to ensure this never happens again. This is work in progress. Thank you for your patience and support as we work through this.
In the meantime, feel free to join our Discord Server

He's apparently been killing it, and he's only 22, 23 in March.

I like it. Young but proven D with a decently high ceiling.
Also sold Gustafsson at the right time

I mean, promising to be sure but does this take them out on Chychrun? Would they really put their own first rounder in play?

I sure hope so! Sandin is much more of the type they need.

I can’t see them trading their own first this year. Maybe they didn’t like the price on Chychrun and switched their focus to Sandin instead?

You think he can push McIlrath out of the lineup?

I am cautiously optimistic about these moves. This team may not be playoff bound this year but they're stocking up for the future. As they should, team old af

This guy is absolutely great in sheltered minutes. Hope he can take the next step, but there's a ton of potential in this trade.

They lost Gus, so they've still got an opening and plenty of room for Irwin and Mcllrath to carry our defense.

RMNB has it weirdly worded. The Caps traded Gus and Bostons 1st for Sandin. For some reason they've worded it as they traded Gus for Sandin and Boston's first, but that makes no sense.

Leaf fan here, this is a really good trade for you guys. Sandin has done well shredding lower competition, is only 22 and he will likely be a top 3-4 guy. His only downside is that he isn't the fastest skater and he gets outmuscled at times, but he's got good IQ to make up for it.
To be honest I have no idea why Dubas did this.
