Awesome, every team needs a feisty French Canadian on it. I love this guy and he is an great example for the young guys on how to "bust your butt every shift"

Directly or INDIRECTLY.
If it doesn't come from Chevy one way or another then it is just complete fabrication.
nobody important
the pessimist returns
So when we pull the trigger on that Trouba for #4 trade, Pierre-Luc Dubois will be a happy camper.

Twenty-two overall to dump Pav and protect all of Myers, Perreault, Lowry, Copp, Dano, and Armia?
Sign me up!

I like Dubois, but that's a ****ing terrible idea.

I think we'll need to expose 2 of the forwards in that list anyway.
1st because you have 5 there and we're also protecting Little, Wheeler, and Scheifele so that's too many, but the second reason is that we're going to need to expose I believe 2 forwards who have played a certain amount of games in the last 2 years and have a contract in 2017-2018.

They'll be exposed according to the expansion draft rules, but they'll be protected by virtue of that fact that Bishop should be the first player they pick.

Gotcha. Although I would think trading for Bishop to expose him seems like a waste to me. He would have more value in a trade IMO.
Looking at his contract though he's also a UFA in 2017, so I don't think he can be exposed can he?

You're right that it would be poor use of Bishop as an asset--Las Vegas shouldn't get a top 20 goalie, let alone a top 10--but it would be good use of the 22nd. Probably indicitive of how much Tampa Bay would never do it.
He wouldn't count as the goalie you need to expose, but Hutchinson would.

For the Jets? That would just be too much money/cap on D. A guy making $9M and Buff at $7.6M, then Enstrom and Myers both over $5M. What does Trouba get? (Traded to Montreal, I guess?)

Nothing, personally not interested.
1) His salary IMO is higher than his value
2) Acquisition cost would be too high
3) Costs to acquire would be better used somewhere else
4) Not a need
5) High salary causes impacts to the roster

I sincerely hope Chevy reads these boards.... so much.
Not like we affect his thoughts at all.. but I wager he'd get a kick out of it.
Just got a notification from The Score saying the Jets are interested in Okposo.

One thing about rumours out of Buffalo, is that there are probably spies monitoring team and player agent suites to see who interviews with who
I would love to add Okposo. That would be huge. I know we have a few young guys, but if you have a chance to be better and a young guy or 2 has to wait another year so be it. Although Okposo along with others likely will be overpaid and it is hard for us to compete with the other teams
Interested.
