    Alexis Lafreniere will be a healthy scratch against the Tampa Bay. Start offering up those multiple 4th rounders SY.

    Anybody else hearing all the Alexander Holtz noise? Finally demoted because he's not picking up the NHL game fast enough, looking slow compared to his linemates. NJ does have a fast team. Wonder if SY makes a play for him after asking Lucas about his former mates dedication level.

    So.... Knies + 1st for a signed Bert? You want more or think that's fair? https://thehockeywriters.com/red-wings-deal-could-spark-moves-for-maple-leafs/?fbclid=IwAR2ahQbZ32biLn1yILpEjYuyupWF6rPqoCHa6tCju2n51nhHjm_mYzBKwOk

    LOL.... not sure. I think Jonas is more in tune with that sort of thing.

    Same here. If it's true that Bo really likes the Wings, better to wait. Bo and family can spend all summer getting settled into a new house and get the kids ready for school. This guy thinks a Horvat + for Hronek is a fair deal for the Nucks. https://canucksarmy.com/news/why-bo-horvat-hockey-trade-possible-extremely-difficult-execute

  9. I like your way of thinking, but I would think Horvat wants his try at FA which is fine, sign him and save the load going to Vancouver. Yeah, if you have Larkin, Horvat and Kasper down the middle....

    What's the latest on Vrana and Fabbri?

    The more ammo at the TDL the better, not that I want to lose anyone. I just can't see SY losing any bigger name UFA's for nothing if they haven't signed an extension by then. We may need Vrana if we lose Bert

    What's the latest on Vrana and Fabbri?

    Has any player that has successfully graduated from the assistance program ever been traded? If Stevie Y wanted to move on I would assume Vrana's stock would be quite a bit lower now. Still like the Mantha trade, we used the 1st to trade up for Mr. Huge Question Mark goalie Cossa and Make Magic For Us Dmitri Buchelnikov.
  13. So we're seeing a little bit of what we saw a lot of last year. Say that fast 5 times. I'm more confident bouncing back with Lalonde making players accountable.

    ABDELKADER HAS CORONA

    We all hope Putin wouldn't resort to that. Russia launching nukes would be NATO's line in the sand, as I don't think anyone but Russia observes those referendums. I believe Russia would get slaughtered by nukes and he probably knows that. What's the condition of their nuclear arms? Same as a tonne of equipment that's old and neglected that we've seen so far? Crimea is in range for HIMARS now and I think the battle will now be won or lost on the water. Ukraine is rolling on the ground and would be unstoppable if they ruled the water as well.

    ABDELKADER HAS CORONA

    Yep, agreed. Lithium will be the major part of it soon enough though. Russia is going to lose this invasion eventually and the biggest energy score, Crimea, will be back where it belongs. Go Wings!

    ABDELKADER HAS CORONA

    The Donbass has not especially been drilled upon more than any other part of Ukraine for gas. Any place which has extensive peat beds is a good place to prospect for natural gas pockets. The Donbass is such a place. Most of the Ukraine is such a place. The future is lithium... and this is I think the real value in Ukraine. Putin will be backing away from Donbas soon enough.

    News From Around the NHL *Mod warning page 75*

    On Tuesday afternoon, ESPN’s Greg Wyshynski reported that defenseman Mitchell Miller currently remains under contract with the Boston Bruins and assigned to AHL Providence, as the team’s path to contractually walking away from him remains murky. Miller was convicted of assault in 2016 for bullying, harassing, and abusing Isaiah Meyer-Crothers, a Black classmate with developmental disabilities. The Bruins announced Sunday night that the team was parting ways with Miller after signing him to an entry-level contract earlier in the week. Wyshynski outlined three options for the Bruins and Miller to legally part ways, although he won’t be playing in the NHL or AHL prior to his release. The first option is a buyout at the end of the season, which would result in a salary cap charge of $287,222 through 2027, or twice the remaining length of Miller’s entry-level contract. In this case, the Bruins would still owe Miller his contract money for the 2022-23 season, which would likely consist of his $95,000 signing bonus and $82,500 minor-league salary. The second scenario is a settlement that allows Miller to become a free agent, worked on in conjunction with the NHLPA and Miller’s agent, Eustace King. Wyshynski notes a prospective settlement falls under NHLPA jurisdiction, despite Miller being assigned to the AHL and having no NHL experience. The obvious last option is a traditional contract termination filed due to Miller’s past behavior, similar to the legal situation – not the backstory – between the San Jose Sharks and Evander Kane last season. Wyshynski notes that also similar to the Kane situation, the NHLPA is expected to file a grievance on behalf of Miller if the Bruins opted to terminate his contract. The NHLPA would also reportedly file a grievance if the Bruins opted to suspend Miller for the length of his contract without pay. In the case of Kane, he received a one-time payment of an undisclosed amount from the Sharks. Wyshynski expects the legal action surrounding the situation to pick up later this week.

    Ed doesn't look near ready to me. What's the rush?

    Seider v Lidstrom

    Is he for sure playing at GR this year? I hope so because the kid needs (like Eddog) to experience having less time to react mainly because of the smaller rink.

    Seider v Lidstrom

    Caught a bunch of last nights game and thought Cross Hanas was great. Raymond is a killer and Vrana could score 50 goals this year if he's on the top line instead of Bert. Cossa even looked good although he only stopped 9 shots.

    Seider v Lidstrom

    Thanks for that....how depressing. Hopefully it's just jitters, although who has the nerves for the whole game. Maybe he looks at the game tape and gets pissed and motivated.

    Seider v Lidstrom

    I only saw clips and not the whole game. What do you think his problems were? NA smaller ice - Rookie nerves - speed of the game - lack of vision?
