There are a lot of dumb GMs out there.

Would be nice if we took advantage of one.

Should tell that to the guy who handled this team for 5 years in a row and making annual excuses like trades are hard to make/can't squeeze other gm's in ol Kenny Holland. He'll prob yap to you about how he was trying to find a Chelios 2.0 deal.

Oddly it seems Nashville is intent on not retaining. You'd have to be crazy not to think they'd get a lot more for Fabbro/Carrier if only they agreed to retain a little.
You only get 3 retention slots and NSH is already using 2, they can only retain once more till Johansen comes off the books this summer.

I'd guess they will retain on Nyquist since that is an expiring contract.

As the saying goes if you can’t find the mark in a room…

Last year the market for scoring wingers dried up before Holland could get his hands on one. $1M left just burning a hole in our wallet.

Makes me thing maybe we should get a bit urgent on the already thin, nearly non-existent market for RHDs.

Odd. Puckpedia says they are only retaining on Ekholm.

I guess you know more than Mitch korn as well. LOL. There is an article on Murray on The AHL's front page. Read it hot shot.
Before your time but there used to be this absolute moron on this board named Duul. He was just dumb as dog shit, just a complete loser. Pretty sure he got banned actually. Anyway he loved Matt Murray as well.

What are you suggesting? Are you insinuating I'm dumb and a moron? Supreme i would be interested in your place to judge. Can you attach a list of your hockey knowledge. Where you played, coached, managed? Are you still playing?
Mitch Korn who at one time was the most sought after Goalie developer in the league likes Matt Murray.

Well Flyers "terminated" Ryan Johansen's contract, but NHLPA filed a grievance, so I believe it is dependent on the outcome of that grievance which has yet to be resolved, maybe the NHL will allow NSH to operate as if the contract is terminated, but I don't know.

You mean the guy who works for the team that employs Matt Murray says he likes him?

You expecting him to come out and say he doesnt?

Oof, so two of my preferred, realistic ones away at least, RHD defensemen off the board.

Hope that doesn't mean it's Matheson or bust. I'm not sure how I feel about bringing him in.

I'd be ok keeping our powder dry if we're circling the corpses of the Rangers and Sabers. They both have RHD I'd be very interested in, as well as GMs desperate enough to part with them right now. I'd include Nashville here, but they've been picked pretty clean, lol.
