  1. Here's a real random question: what the hell is a wheat king? I know and LOVE the Tragically Hip song. I know that there is a hockey team named the "Wheat Kings". But google is failing me. Where does that name come from?
  2. Man how big a disappointment was Scandella. I loved that move at the time. He turned out to be absolutely nothing.
  3. yeah, you can't really stand under Buttermilk like that, I guess I haven't been to Stony Brook in years, I'll have to go back this fall.
  4. He bitched about the Delta the whole time he had it and don't let him ever tell you different, lol. To be fair how could anything ever live up to the Caprice.
  5. This is true. I believe your actual complaint was "its too practical!" Hence looking at the Astrovan
  6. How was this show? I don't know Isbell real well but I keep meaning to get aquainted. Misty is a little odd, but I like his stuff.
  7. I love the expression on Kessel's face right before puck drop: "WHAT?!". I don't blame Scott for that now that I heard his story. He TOLD Carlyle what was going to happen. And I don't blame Kessel for hacking him. If I saw John Scott coming at me to fight I'd use a gun if I had one, lol.
  8. Yeah, the value of a #1 defenseman is much greater than a winger, almost no matter how good they are. Plus Dahlin is still cheap for a few more years and Marner is getting MIIMUM 10.5+. Eichel/Matthews is a tossup; even if you think Matthews is better he's not THAT much better to make up the difference.
  9. Maybe someday the US Men will have an actual striker
  10. If they paid him 2m per the only players getting paid less than him who aren't on an ELC (or an RFA with a QO, because I don't know what those numbers look like) would be Casey Nelson and Scott Wilson.
  11. Does Gusev want 4x2, or 2x2? I thought I saw 2x2, which seems worthy of a flyer to me.
  12. I think Tampa is still your top target, there.
  13. Is this the same one that said that there was no way Skinner was signing here??
  14. Even more specifically, trading Risto should bring in a return greater than his value, because he tends to be over valued for what he actually brings. He's really a second or third pairing defenseman, so if there's a GM in the league, and I would be surprised if there weren't at least 5-10, that value him as a first pairing d-man and want to pay that value back for him? Its a steal for you.
  15. Not exactly what I'd call a "Defensive Defenseman"
  16. Breadman to the NYR from Dreger now, too
  17. Isn't Vancouver doing that exact thing?
