Depending on what the Golden Seals gave up, this could be good.

7th rounder. ^^ If the guy plays one shift, the Sens got fleeced.


Then there is this:

Good, I have tickets to the Habs game here. Since Price is out, I didn't think I'd have anything to be excited about. Now I can boo every time the little bastard touches the puck.

It's a haul quantity wise but I'm not sure there is a ton of quality in there. I'm assuming he means Brett Howden but still.

Granted I don't know really anything about Hajek other than his stats, so maybe he projects as something really good.

Otherwise. Meh.

Namestnikov and Miller kinda cancel each other out. I guess if the Rangers hit on 1 prospect and 1 pick it'll be worth it.

I wouldn't have done it without Sergachev or Point coming back though.

I guess so but I'm not convinced that Namestnikov isn't a product of the team he's playing on. I like Miller's game more but I suppose you're right.

Tampa is pretty loaded now though. Got a nice 2 year window with Mac too. Could always flip him at next year's deadline if he's not a good fit.

So Karlsson stays.

I have zero doubt that the relationship between EK and the team COULD be salvaged between now and July. He truly wants to be in Ottawa. Commit to him financially and in other ways and he would stay.

However, I have essentially zero faith that a Melnyk led leadership group is capable of doing this. He's gone in the summer because of Melnyk's delerium tremens induced delusions and ego.

I just have to hope for an ownership change between now and the summer basically.

Josh Jooris to the Penguins, presumably as, "We never want to see Carter Rowney on the ice ever again" insurance.
Jooris for McKegg seems to be a trade just to make a trade.

I like Hornqvist, but that's a lot of term...


He'll be worth it for the first three years, at least, so I'll say it's a solid deal. After that, the whole team will be getting a little old anyway.

He might even manage earning those dollars by the end of it with reduced minutes and a bit of a powerplay specialist role.

Vegas "enjoying their spoils" of a butt ton of draft picks by trading them for Tatar.

McPhee trying to relive his Forsberg-for-Erat greatness.

I tend to agree Namestnikov numbers are probably inflated with who he plays with, Krieder and Z are no where near the scorers he was playing with. Now if TB gets kicked out in the first round this year wins the SC next year and Howden and the other prospect become top players then yes the Rangers got a sweet deal. Im thinking since its the Rangers they wont and TB wins the cup this year.

Oh, and it has not really been cleared up why they thought the players in the Vanek deal were changing.

You get applesauce and Juice and you will like it.
