You really expect him to say something specific and surprising? This will be a repeat of the 2020 trade deadline presser, just watch that instead.
No but I expect him to be asked what was left on the table, and if he hints that they were looking for players with term. Which would suggest there might be further discussions after the season, especially if the plan is to trade PLD.

Edmonton. But you've missed the point. The host didn't know another team existed. Farber called out his ignorance, which I thought was interesting. I too am pretty discouraged at Chevy's attempt to do something with this squad. But we're not far off the Oilers as far as chances go. They are not a complete team.

I didn't miss the point I agree with them we are trending on irrelevant when it comes to the playoffs.

Nuno replaces Peefetti for now, but when we are healthy he is in the bottom 6. Exactly what people wanted, a player who could move up as an injury replacement.
I don't think getting one more forward for the bottom six who could add scoring when we still have over 3 million in capspace was much of an ask...we needed 2 forward when perfetti was healthy

This team was in 2nd for most of the year now teams have caught up and passed us and a playoff spot is not a given just yet, maybe Chevy just couldn't any more deals done or the brain trust just looked at the team and said why bother we just don't have the horses this year will address in the off season

This offseason could be painful for us lots of pieces up in the air. Dubois might still want out, Scheif and Helle might chase greener pastures and bigger paydays elsewhere. Make for some big decisions from July 1st to the Deadline .

I wonder if the uncertainty of our position now has given the brass some pause. We are dropping like a rock and that 1st could very well be a lottery ticket in a months time.
I've been saying that for the last few days, that my impression that Chevy was holding onto his 1sts for dear life, not knowing what the contract situation will be with 3 of his star players.

It is tough, wonder if things would have been different had we not had a terrible last 2 months.
