Who the heck are Alec Regula and Ian Mitchell?

I was thinking he'd retire since there is a FO job waiting for him here and he wouldn't want to be away from the family.

That cap hit is good for him and basically just getting to cap floor for CHI. Plus it'll give him a year to explain to Connor why he wants to be in Columbus instead.

Between this and the RyJo trade, it seems that $4M doesnt go as far as it used to

William Nylander on phone with his agent: "Foligno got HOW MUCH? Yeah, I get it's one year, but c'mon. You get it done, I am going to go shopping for private islands"

The 6th round pick issued a statement through its agent expressing it does not wish to play for Torts.

Unless I'm missing something Winnipeg has $13 mil in cap space at the moment so either PLD is getting McJesus money or Dreger's trying to sound smart.

No chance of that.

If LA is willing to gut their team for a malcontent, who am I to say no?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Do the Habs not understand how bad their blue line is or do they know something everyone else doesn’t?

 

[esls79]

Kings crazy if they do that without Hellebuck involved

To the defense of the earlier rumors. That 6th round pick is better on defense than Ristolainen.

Kings are getting rooked on this one.

Vilardi will likely be about as good as PLD this year.

PLD is that guy who is going to "break out" every year according to pundits. Next thing you know he is a 30 year old prospect. Guy is a good 2nd line C. That's it and it's unlikely to change. Dude doesn't give a shit on many a night.

Sooooooooooo a younger Ryan Johansen.

Sooooooooooo a younger Ryan Johansen.

Kind of. He reminds me of Radek Bonk back in the day. You could see some days how good he could be. They always said he just needed to learn consistency. But then he'd been in the league ten years and you're still waiting. Assessment of both : very good player but if he's your number 1 C you ain't winning anything.

Wowie Zowie...
