Nice appetizer before game 7.

Now drop the Mariner trade during the second intermission and we’ve got a meal.

It's funny how many "insiders" seem to be pissed off about big trades breaking before this game 7. Hey, GM's gotta strike when the iron's hot, it's not their fault Bettman does a terrible job running this league.

Just some dudes on vacation in Italy together.

Spoiler: Cam Atkinson in a Speedo

Based on recent pics, I think you could stuff two Cam's in an OVen

Man, I love this trade for Ottawa! 25th OA and Mark Kastelic would be a reasonable price to unload a bottom 5 league goalie last year who is signed for 4 more years at $4M. So the Sens basically just retained $1M a year for 4 years (buyout would have been $1.3M for 8 years) to get Linus Ullmark.

Looks like the Melnyk/Dorion mess is starting to get cleaned up.

^ well, he isn’t a goalie, he’ll put up some points but they won’t go anywhere again just like the last 50 years lol

They might be state champions though.

Shea Weber is a hall of famer? Isn’t he still on Utahs payroll?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Last year the word was that Mogilny wasn’t voted in because they weren’t going to let any Russians in until the war was resolved.

Now Datsyuk is going in?

Yes he is

Outside of Datsyuk, my first reaction to this year's HHOF class is "underwhelmed".

Did Colin Campbell nominate himself in the builder category?

Lots of Coyotes legends in this batch.

Hall of good enough?

Datsyuk is a fine addition and Roenick has more than 500 goals which is a hallowed number. I'm okay with both guys going in.
