Tort's system seems to be working well

He's the Six Million Dollar Man (almost literally). He has a completely artificial hip IIRC. He mentioned something about lots of pain after every game for pretty much the rest of his life when he came back this season. Good for him for fighting to continue his dream of playing in the NHL.

HE'S ALL HEART MAN

I'm hoping Schroeder gets dealt in a package deal...I can't see him playing top 6 or even center on the team. Plus with the kesler trade if it goes thru I'm assuming they will get a better center....

It's too bad Schroeder just isn't given an offensive role to make mistakes in. It's the same idea with Kassian. They were picked up for offence, yet both coaches are making sure they're pretty much counter-attack offensive players.

I'm not saying treat them with the same leash that Ovie has, but damn it's like the organization won't give young offensive talent time to flourish without the threat of benching them after every mistake. That only leads to ruining their offensive instincts.

Jordan doesn't fit in the Torts system, which means he'll be dealt in the near future. It's too bad because the team needs offence from somewhere right now.

The players have already checked out on Torts. I don't see how he survives to coach next season other than the fact the Nucks would still need to pay out the remaining 4 years of his contract.

Again, another great signing by MG.

Ballard was there for the ride. Just like Tanner Glass. Oh wait Tanner Glass actually played double the amount of games Ballard did that playoff run! 10 compared to 20.

Wow you've been a fan your whole life? TSN needs to sign you up!

Ehroff was the best trade Gillis made and one of his blunders was letting him go.

Merry trade deadline everyone lets hope some big moves go down and isn't hours of waiting for a small prospect swap

Ehroff was a salary dump by SJ..

NYR attempting to have MSL on a flight and into NY for leafs

LOL

As much as I question Glen Sather's trades and acquisitions sometimes, I have to hand it to Slats that he isn't afraid to make deals.

A Kesler trade to bring back players who are younger, and can help jumpstart this weaksauce offence is absolutely critical to this team's season now and well into the future.

-good to hear Gillis eat some humble pie on the team 1040 radio yesterday and acknowledge this team's shortcomings. -pop gun offence, no depth in our three lines, aging core.

Don't mess up this Kesler trade up MG! Be a hustler and come up with a good trade for this team. :suspicious:

Yzerman got jacked. Reigning Art Ross trophy winner shipped for an oft-injured pending UFA.

Confirmed done.

The Carolina Hurricanes will reportedly not trade Cam Ward.

:rukidding:


Fuck management if this falls through. Greedy fucks.

As sure as the Sun will rise, GMMG will find a way to get swindled.

^It's probably because they can't with that God-awful contract. Plus he sucks nuts.
