meh, good luck peddling that shit to STH's
let's see them try to make decisions they think are the right ones when they're up to their foreheads in shitty trades/signings, unengaged fanbase and declining STH renewal rates

on the plus side, Caps season starts in a couple of weeks!
there's a Vancouver team that knows how to serve youth, sign smart and balance veteran roles

Regarding Drouin:




The asking price from the Wild is Matt Dumba as reported by Russo. Tampa wants a young D in return. From Montreal he speculated it would be Beaulieu + Sherbak or McCarron.

Canucks don't have the pieces for a trade if that's what Stevie Y is looking for

Tanev or Hutton (both MG players lulz) + Gaunce + pick

i could see JB offering something that stupid, or god forbid, offer up McCann instead of Gaunce

honestly have zero faith in JB making any trade that resembles anything close to fucking reasonable at this point
the guy would probably trade his dick for a clam if he got convinced enough

with how the oilers were built, and what was on that team at the time... it can't be that bad with RNH, Hall, Eberle and ughh.. Nail Yakupov... whatever.. that team was coached/micromanaged to the ground by the delusional old boys club....not like anything is different now... but needs Defence and Goaltending..

I bet Canuck management/Ownership feel the same way as long as we have the twins hence why they think they can make the playoffs this year and next.
Canucks have a Seguin/Benn... they call em the Sedins... sigh.........

JB will probably trade Tanev + McCann + 1st and Yzerman will give us Drouin + Carle/Garrison

We'll also take the remainder of Ohlund's salary because it's the right thing to do.

Pierre Maguire on 1040 just said its possible hamhuis would fetch a 1st round pick in the right spot...he was saying depending on how the team feals and how close they think they are to the cup...he also said for vrbata he could proabably fetch a 2nd since thats what the going rate is right now..

So basically we're open to any team trying to pick up our garbage players?

Ok.

No need to call 29 other teams. Just one number will do:

I'm surprised Ohlie hasn't retired yet. It's been like 5 years since he's played + his knees and eyes are so fucked. I thought when he got hurt it was definitely a sign to retire. But I miss him still

Just like Pronger, they'll retire after their contract ends.

Some teams can't just take them from waivers. They might be over the contracts limit or they don't have enouhg cap room to take them. The closer to trade deadline, the cheaper these players cost them.

is anyone else excited over the potential treasure trove of 7th round picks we'll be swimming in after Feb 29?

Yeah Kenins was a disappointment...the guy lost track of what made him stand out..
Back to Europe for him it looks like.
