I'ma be honest: I'm expecting most if not all of Bowey, Erne, Perlini, Hirose to be flipped between now and July 1st.

@krsmith17 Buuuut it's not like those are the only two fish in the sea. I guess the only question that really matters is "What would you be willing to part with?" (Or, "How badly do you want that unicorn defenseman?") I'd like to think AA + Cholowski + Hirose could land us a guy like Provorov or Hanifin...but I'm guessing the ask would be closer to Mantha/Bertuzzi + pick/prospect. Worth it? Possibly.

Wait, what's wrong with where Helm's slotted? Honest question. As for Erne and Perlini... I mean, if it's me, I try Perlini on the top line. Cuz why the hell not. But I get where Blashill's coming from. I don't necessarily agree with it, but I get it. He's had a couple of good chances but hasn't really made an impact yet. I think he's used to playing with teams that can, y'know, make simple passes and stuff. Poor guy. He's going to be a broken alcoholic by Christmas time.

tRaDeS aRe HaRd Don't even joke.

I'm just messing with ya, bois. I've always rooted for "G.I." Joe Hicketts and will continue to do so. I doubt he has much of a future in the NHL, but, like you've said, it's about time we found out for sure. His skating is a problem and it's always going to be a problem, but maybe he has it in him to lock down a regular role as a PK specialist or something. I think Blashill is right to say that he brings a swagger to the table that every team needs and which our team is almost completely lacking. Granted, swagger will only get you so far (he was awful against Carolina and not a whole lot better against Florida), but at least he adds something different to the mix. Daley is Old Guy Who Does Dumb Things. Green is Old Guy Who Does Dumb Things. Cholowski is Young Guy Who Does Dumb Things. Hicketts gives us Smol Guy Who Does Dumb Things. Variety is the spice of life.

I'm pretty sure it's not. (Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.) Twitter is so stupid. I love it.

@Mods, plz help, my thread is being raided by Hicketts truthers.

Srsly tho. The Pierre Dorian redemption arch/plot twist is upon us and I am unironically here for it. What an absolute madman.

I've gotta think they're both pretty much untouchable. Certainly Heiskanen is.

Freaking Sens played us like a damn fiddle.

The tank has hit a snag:

HYPE! LGRW!

0-4. Hell yeah. Keep it up, boys.

PP. Time for a shorty. Sup, loo. Wings are lazy and they suck tonight. That's pretty much all I can say.

Horrible. End of 2nd. Wings trail 0-3. Fire everyone.

This is borderline unwatchable.

0-3

Shoot the f***ing puck at the f***ing net. Enough with this cycling for the sake of cycling crap.

#DadGoals

End of 1st. Wings trail 0-2. Not nearly good enough.

HYPE! LGRW!

PK Panthers score on the PP. 0-2.

I am the double entendre king.

EARLY PK HYPE! The camera position is so low in Florida's building. Panthers score on the PP. Daley with the perfect screen. 0-1.
