Habs want Draisaitl and 4 picks for PK from Edmonton.



Part of me wants it to happen so the Oil won't offer sheet Jones.

It's not four picks, it's the 4th pick.

What a meteoric fall from grace.

I do not believe that the Canucks will get both Erickson and Lucic
I do not believe that the Canucks will get Erickson
I do not believe that the Canucks will get Lucic
I do not believe the Canucks can get PK Subban
I do believe the Canucks will sign a desperate deal to generate "excitement"
I do believe the Canucks will finish 10th in the west

Geez, for a second I thought this was Matty's version of "Green Eggs and Ham"

So now he's said they are moving up, moving down, and picking one of the Finns.
How long will it take for him to retweet his own correct prediction?

That's the way I read it also. Whew. My high school French from 35 years ago never fails !

I kept hearing "The Little Engine That Could" while reading it.

What a meteoric fall from grace.

The fact that the Habs are a mess and he's about to be a minimum salary guy makes me smile when thinking back to the year the Habs traded for him and every fucking Hab fan from here to Halifax assured me they were Cup-bound.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Speaking of Fowler...


Buffalo and Montreal battling it out for younger Josh Gorges?

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Wouldn't surprise me if Ottawa got in on Fowler too...

Personally, I think Ottawa has enough foul already.

$7.5m/yr AAV. Using that as a comparable, Trouba Jones and Barrie at the very least just orgasmed.

The only bright side for that was how little they gave up to get him. The asking price was thought to be much higher.
And the Habs are not a mess, Carey being hurt was their entire problem......

Yeah, Garth Snow, "GM Extraordinaire" and winner of 1 playoff round in 10 seasons, already paid the heavy price so MTL just paid the freight.

Panthers got their backup goalie.

My translator app however... It said "four choices" not choice #4.

7.5 for Jones? Well, c'mon offer sheet/lot of picks. I was thinking he'd go 6.5ish. There are some delusional koolaid drinkers that think the Jackets can get him for 7 years at 5 per.




By the way, my Blue Jackets app is going to give me a heart attack. I get alerts every time something happens that is classified as "breaking news". Since last night there have been 4.

1) Interview with Jarmo about the draft posted on Bluejackets.com
2) William Karlsson signs
3) IT'S DRAFT DAY, come to the party
4) Seth Jones will be at the draft party signing autographs!

Fuck you, app.

I think Jones will end up at $7 mil/yr on a long term deal. $6.5 mil is possible though.

To this point Ekblad has been better thus his likely higher salary. Barrie for sure will be looking for $7.5ish now.
