It's not a legitimate rumor, it was Marek just trying to make a case for a team to trade for DeLorean. I know thats not his name, but I refuse to write it out after reading it 69 billion times over the last 3 pages.
I swear to God I'll pistol whip the next guy who says Deslauriers.
Someone is scared to say his name...
 
I've never seen any GM more reactive to recent events than Sather

Oh Betts is dead, who killed him? Let's sign that guy

Oh no, Gaborik is mauled, who did it and can we get him, also who can we draft at #10?

Gaborik scored like 4 or was it 5 goal against us, how can we get him?

Tampa won the Cup you say back in 2004, anyone we can get off that team?
 
Here’s a better idea: let’s stop discussing wasting any asset on terrible players like Deslauriers and MacDermid? Both are among the worst players respective to their position, and literally add nothing here.

The Marek thing is disgustingly overblown, and he always throws random asides out there as bait for Friedman. I know BBKers has been mentioning MacDermid for a while, but let’s hope that idea died in the past with Gorton and JD.

The biggest issue last year was not a lack of grit. It was a lack of 5v5 systems that focused on aggressive, up-tempo hockey that wears your opponents down. I guess it’s a good thing that our new HC specializes in that style and has now drawn blood from a stone with two completely different roster make ups.

I genuinely don’t understand why there’s an obsession on here to suggest bringing in terrible players. :laugh:
 
Guys, I made a joke about it before, but now that we're literally discussing Nic f***ing Deslauriers, I am now SURE of the fact that we will discuss adding literally every single player in the NHL at one point or another.

Literally, Ryan Reaves wouldn’t cost a 1st and he’s legit terrifying for Wilson
I mean yea...Wilson sat out the remainder of that game to hide from Brendan Smith. Hes afraid of anyone more than half his size or not in a defenseless position.

Don’t worry all we need to do is convince St. Louis to come out of retirement

Gallant should help that, right? Quinn has skills but was in over his head, clearly. Defering to Panarin, the awful D 2 years ago. Isn’t it amazing Martin fixed that in one season?

Everything is all Shapiro this, Marek that, Greta Thunberg this. I'm sick of it all. Gonna wait until there are actual trades again before I spend another afternoon reading through HF again.
Who dared to summon me?

What he meant was First pick in the the 4th Round....
