everyone is saying it takes 2 to tango with trade but like fuck me if this dumbass GM of ours didn't wait last minute to make a trade then he wouldn't be in this mess. You get hired to be a GM of a team your focus is getting your team to be better, make trades for picks/prospects, move out guys with expiring contacts for some sort of assets. If that GM doesn't do it at all then that person needs to get moved out for someone who can and will be more competent end rant....

Markstrom apparently injured
Will have an MRI

If there ever was a sliver of a chance, there won't be a Miller trade now, that's guaranteed.

i have pretty low expectations for the 'Caps
but at least the games are still fun to go to...and cheap as hell

hoping they beat NYRB and face one of the Mexican teams in the Semis. Having a Mexican league team to watch at BC place is gonna be a pretty fun experience.

Canucks are a pretty sorry excuse for a franchise right now. You'd think no one could ever match the Oilers pre-McDavid incompetence but nope, here comes a new challenger.
This is gonna be one of those depressing trade deadline again...and then the Canucks will win the last 5 games of the season...and draft 7th overall and the cycle begins again next year.

markstrom is injured most likely due from the stupid skills competition...if for any small chance miller was going to be traded it sure isn't anymore. Hockey gods cursed the fuck out of the canucks...

The hockey gods are playing on the Canucks again.

First, the mumps and now Markstrom injured as a result of the skills competition.


Bad luck Canucks.

Are you kidding me? Edm was fucking bad. How many 1st overall picks do you need to be competitive? Even now, if it's not for McDavid, they prob in the same boat as us. So oilers playing well now, is it management or is it because of mcdavid? Basically shows u the player mcdavid is. Lol

Coilers was bad...but at least they've somehow managed to luck away and get rewarded for their incompetence.

Canucks...well, we just got a player injured for participating at a fan event. And we have a front office that is either vetoed by ownership every step of the way or management that can't think within a box, let alone outside of it.

wouldn't mind Lazar for Burrows, it'd be awesome if a conditional pick was thrown in though.

We had a player who couldn't play because he hurt his back picking up a cracker.
Lol

We are paying for trying to win the cup. All the picks and prospects traded.

Not only that. We made it worse with our shitty drafting.

hahahahahahahah totally forgot about that

our mid round picks have surprisingly been pretty good under Benning. The 1st rounds have been pretty questionable though.

Looks like Burr to Sens just being finalized. A 2 year extension is also in the works.
Someone pls post "Burr Monster" one more time.
