Trade Deadline Week - 2018

[Bloody Brian Burke]

They can't seem to score and they can't seem to stop other teams from scoring. Other than that, things are fine

Shattenkirk last year, Stastny now...

They're sure wasting a lot of Tarasenko and Pietrangelo's primes.

 

[jstewismybastardson]

would have liked to see more of Holm ... 1 game lol

How will this play with other euro free agents looking to sign in the NHL (just mentioned in cesspool)? ... Rodin ... now Holm ... the canucks sign them and dont give them a legit nhl shot

 

[jstewismybastardson]

ahh Brendan Leipsic played for Travis Green in Portland

 

[jstewismybastardson]

Come on Jim, trade Vanek, you know you want to.

a report is out there they will sign him and give him a NTC

Flyers claimed Johnny Oduya. Couldn't even get a 7th rounder for him?

Erik Karlsson's primary partner for most of this year couldn't return a 7th round pick. Let that sink in for a bit.

I'm wondering how many prime years of Gaudreau and Monahan the Flames are wasting - This is year 2 based on my calculations.

Will Ty Rattie be next?

Will Ty Rattie be next?

LOL. I thought Rattie was going to be a really good 2nd liner coming out of junior. Maybe I shouldn't be an NHL GM.

Alex Burrows clears waivers. A buddy of mine with some connections in the Sens front office told me they were PISSED about the Hall incident. I didn't believe him but maybe he was onto something.

The torrid pace cannot keep up.


At this point, the two biggest names moved today are Stastny and Cole.

That's because Karlsson is just a selfish Euro-softie who doesn't try to improve the players around him, unlike a good hard-working Canadian boy like Johnny Oduya. I mean, just look at that name. Johnny. Good Canadian kid.

[Editor's Note: Uh, Don, Oduya is Swedish too]

Really? No way. Huh.

Both are still under 25. Flames should be better but their forward core is still very, very young.

Pietrangelo and Tarasenko are 28 and 26. To waste two years of those guys' 25+ years is kinda nuts.

idk ... i be more pissed if I was paying him another year at 2.5 shmill when he's pretty much done as a player lol

The Flames claiming Chris Stewart was likely prompted by the news that Ferklund is day-to-day with some kind of injury.

These trade deadline shows are always slow, today moreso. If you ask me TSN and Sportsnet shouldn't have all day coverage for the trade deadline shows, it should go 11 AM-5 PM EST.

The Vanek trade is gumming up the works

I just sent a case of Miralax to every team office.

Give it about an hour, then watch out
