I highly recommend using HF Dark theme.
As for the changes... there are still more coming. This isn't even close to finished yet. Lots of configuration work being done.

I like the dark better than other dark formats I've seen, but wish they had something like a light green, or something like that.
Back to trade stuff. If the team doesn't turn it around by about a week before the TDL, then I want Guerin to be a seller, with just about everyone possible but Kap, JEE, and Boldy in play(Spurge, Zucc, Brodin, Goli have NMC's). If Guerin doesn't want Fiala back, then he might as well be traded at the TDL, because he'll be worth more then than in the summer. He should get the equivalent of two firsts, +. I hate to see him go, and don't understand valuing Talbot and Greenway over him, but whatever...I don't run the team. I think that guys like Hartman are very valuable to this team because of their tiny cap hits and outsized production, and are near untouchable because of it, but hey, if someone wants to offer a high 1st+ then you have to listen. Merrill, Kulikov, Benn....these guys can all go. If i hear one more time about what great team guys they are and what great chemistry we have i am going to barf. I'll take less chemistry, and a couple of playoff series wins, thank you.
Anyone with me on the Fiala at the TDL? I'm ready to rip off the bandaid now rather than later in the summer, if it comes down to that. I think legit playoff contenders would be lining up to trade for him.

I would rather wait until July 1st and trade the guy who's gonna be 35 at the start of next season, instead of the 26 year old.

No. Summer puts more teams in the pot, and they all know their draft positions.
He should fetch a huge haul and there should be no shortage of suitors
OTT:
Pinto + 1st
for
Fiala + Talbot
DET:
Soderblom + 1st
for
Fiala
VAN:
Podkolzin + 1st
for
Fiala
LAK:
Turcotte + Bjornfoot + 3rd
for
Fiala
Probably off on value on some of these, but Guerin is going to have the ability to pick up some extremely good young assets. This team arguably needs help at every position so it will be very interesting to see where he goes. I’d still prefer we do everything we can to resign him but the return on a trade should be very exciting

If we don’t trade for Fleury we might as well sell assets. This team isn’t doing shit without a goalie.

Avs fan coming in peace. Can anyone tell me what we can expect from Sturm? I haven’t seen much of him

Prototypical big fourth line center. Can play a heavy forechecking game, good defensively, you'll think there's untapped offense there at times, but there isn't. Just a real solid, steady presence on the fourth line. He's almost never going to be a liability.

You can expect his performance to take a hit after being separated from his long-lost twin Nick Bjugstad.
I (FWIW)echo AKL’s scouting report. I’ll add very good speed for 6’2 200+, a bit better than average FO%.
I think his game is geared for playoff hockey. And your opinion on Jost?

Jost is a good guy and tries hard, but he hasn’t been skilled enough to get into the top 6 and he isn’t built for a bottom 6 roll. However, he also hasn’t been a good fit for the Avs system. So he may benefit from a change of scenery. Last year it looked like he had turned a corner into a solid defensive forward, but he’s not been great this year.
Hopefully he can find a role with you guys, easy player to pull for

$5M committed to Greenway & Jost next season that should've been spent on signing Fiala long-term.

Think it's been pretty clear for a while that Fiala is gone, but Guerin seems hell bent on showing us that it isn't a money issue with these commitments, he just doesn't like Fiala.
Letting Fiala go could be one of the defining moments of his tenure here when it's all said and done.

still bitter, here. I seem to remember that injury was not in a game, either. I was always suspicious of how/if it happened, and Backstrom went from being one of my favorite players to not.
