Ok, as big of a Hossa slappie I have been, I'd have to say.... ...Frk No! Who the Sam Hell would even propose this? Even in 2005, no hindsight, hell no. Let it be known, I did not propose this.

Ugh this is going to be a long season. The only thing worthwhile this season is a shot of Jack Hughes. Signing out good night

Yay killed it. Can't see the fight on the radio how's it look?

Same Book Different cover? work hard for a goal then take a penalty. let's see what happens.

In honor of tonight's Wings/Leafs game, lets revisit this doosie of a trade rumor! Wow!

Here's the Hype of Hypes!

Matthews is going to get shafted at one point, I do believe...

I am not saying that Holland hasn't been moving players, but I just think, at the very least, Abby and Dekeyser are here to stay. Not that he hsn't been very good at the deals he has made, but I think those two are players that will start and finish their careers here. They aren't horrible, and really, they have $13M in cap available next season, with really nobody that important to re-sign. If they do not re-sign any of the UFA's, they will have plenty of kids from GR coming in at very low wages. That is not to say that they won't go after a UFA come July (Karlsson) and then absolutely they'll have to be dumping salary this TDL. If they trade Daley, that'll add another $3.1M on to their cap. So even if, let's say land Karlsson for $11M-$12M that'll still give them $3M-$4M to fill in from GR. But that is for another thread... But maybe someone wants Nielsen and Ericsson this spring, ya never know. I just don't see Abby or DD going anywhere. Abby will most likely retire after this contract and I can see DD re-signing after his. They aren't that bad, they just need to be in the appropriate place on the ice. ATM, that is Bottom 6 for Abby and bottom pairing for DD. Prediction, if they're in the playoff picture by TDL, they won't get rid of anyone...if they are out again, I can see a few names being talked about, you've mentioned them, but I just don't think he'll trade them all. IMO Any of Nyquist, Howard, Daley, Helm and Glendening could be on the move, but I'd welcome Nielsen or Ericsson being dealt as well.

Honestly, I understand your point(s) but Abby will probably never be traded, neither will Dekeyser. Vanek has a full NTC with no details provided. (Yes, I know NTC's can be waived.) I think, though, he wanted to guarantee that he will not be dealt. Besides, Vanek is not part of the problem(s.) Green will more than likely not be dealt until next TDL, if he even ever becomes healthy enough to play. Green has a FULL NTC up until Feb. 2020, then he provides a 10 team No Trade List. Nyquist also has a full NTC with no details provided. Again, does not mean he won't waive it, but it would have to be an optimal situation for him. Howard is free and clear, and if he has a nice season, and a team is need, he will probably be dealt. Daley can be dealt, he has to list a 15 team no trade list and he probably will be the one to be gone this season. I really don't see Nielsen going anywhere, unless a team comes asking about him, he does have a MNTC listing 10 teams he won't go to, though, so it could happen. Ericsson also has a MNTC listing 19 teams he won't go to. I am on board with you when it comes to cleaning up some of the house, I just don't see Holland moving most of the players you listed. Unless he can get a 1st or 2nd for someone, I don't think he'll waste his time acquiring low draft picks that may never pan out. Just my opinion...

I am not over-reacting. No need for me to calm down, already calm. I just said that would suck. I really don't care in the grand scheme of life. I mean, does it really matter?

#7 would suck. That would be such a heartbreak, especially after all the D we left on the board.

Bizarre Hype!

Ok, with the roster almost set (barring a trade for a defender) give us your best guess at what the opening night roster will look like and what line combos you'd like to see. It's a given that we'll get Larkin signed, I am going with a 2 year $4M bridge deal. Unfortunately the chatter about Z is getting too frequent, so I have to go with he is done. So even if we signed Also, just because I have Kronwall listed in the #7 spot, does not mean he will be scratched every night. I just put him there because with his knees there is a good chance he may the guy rotating in and out more frequently than Jensen or Hronek, but he may play 80 games, who knows with him! You could flip AA and Nyquist around, but I like AA in the top 6, plus he had great chemistry with Helm and Vanek prior. Other than that, I really like what our roster will (could) look like come October. It may not be Cup or even playoff worthy (yet) but it's moving in the right direction. (it also may get us about the 11th-12th from the bottom finish, and we know what that means, #1 or #2 overall! )

Same old Blashill, blame it on AA.

Wouldn't that be crazy?!?

Calder - Rasmussen Vezina and Jennings - Howard Hart, Selke, Byng, Messier and Art Ross - Larkin Rocket Richard - AA Norris - Green Adams - Blashill Clancey - Glendenning Lindsey - Mantha Gm of the Year - Holland Masterton - Kronwall ...yes, I am blinded by the Red Light.

Here's an idea, for the entire season, sort the teams by points, then on the last day, re-sort them by winning percentage!

I love this "injury report" for the Leafs: ...its even funny how its worded. Couldn't they just put "Unsigned."

Nah, this team is going to surprise a lot of folks this season! Don't get me wrong, I'd love a shot at the #1 pick, but I just have a feeling this team is going to surprise a lot of folks this season! If we can get our goalies to over-perform, I just have a feeling that this team is going to surprise a lot of folks this season! Oddly enough, these young kids may come in and feel they have to fight to stay in the NHL, and that just be the antidote the allows this team to surprise a lot of folks this season! Oh, shoot ,sorry, I thought I was over in the "Korean Spam" thread! Seriously though, as much as most of us want to win the Jack Hughes lotto, I am sure we'd all be ecstatic if this team ran away with the Eastern Conference and really did surprise everyone! Anyhow, I won't be watching (have to drive to work) but I will be listening!

Nah, that trade is nowhere near one sided as I would propose, if it were me I would've said Nielsen for Hedman. Btw, E and Kronwall on IR, Witko, Hronek and Hicketts recalled.

Yes. Not to the point you are referring (joking) about. Plus, if somebody says something to me first about one of those subjects, and I respond, doesn't count as me bringing it up. Or if it's in the (an) appropriate thread. Even then 99% of the time i dont discuss them.

Nyquist may be re-signed in July, but only after he is traded at the deadline...
