Dev camp starts Wednesday so I assume he means after camp.

It showed it in the video.

That looks like Royal to me.

Bias implies some kind of subconscious decision being made. Like a guy just never picking Russians and not having a good reason for it. If we want to call what Botterill is doing "bias" then fine, but his reasoning appears perfectly sound for those who would prefer it called "strategy".

It's not bias, it's just a straight up strategy backed by reason.

I'm all in on trading with Minnesota.

Do not want.

This is good news!

I really can't. But if something happens that I'm not surprised by I'll be sure to mention it.

There are reasons why *certain* players have been absent from my sh*t list. I'm honestly stunned that some of the stuff I've heard hasn't been leaked. I think, frankly, fans would be supportive if this stuff was out in the open.

It's not even July 1st yet.

Aye.

There are a lot of things about the inner workings of this team that we aren't privy to. One thing that I think will be interesting to watch for is players that are moved that don't make a lot of sense. There are, from what I have heard hinted at, an inordinate number of players on this team with clinical mental health issues. Depression, anxiety, etc. And they all feed into a general culture of malaise. More than a team sports psychologist can handle. One such move has already been made, though most will not object to it...

I'm sure he talked to Tavares agent.

It's going to be really good to have guys like him and Ullmark on the team.

I mean, we've done a lot of talking about Dahlin. The trade is completely uninteresting to me. But his aversion to the CHL is fascinating.

*raises hand* the party boy stuff is accurate per uh...sources... Completely agree on the second and third paragraphs. And it's not like they just go out and party. These guys are all big into video games as well. Lots of late nights on the ol Xbox.

I'm pretty high on Luukkonnen. I think he's gonna make it.

So it's basically a pick value decision. Smart.

I don't see why it wouldn't be more likely that he's moved after the Sabres pay him his bonus. Would seem like any team trading for him would prefer to do so after the 1st.

I have no real opinion on the pick other than that it appears that we're trying to make this team feel like home for our Swedes. Buffalo may need to step its restaurant game up.

He also has a stupid name

If I was Tkachuk I would stay in college and become a free agent. Screw Ottawa.

These picks have not gone as expected.
