Vegas is the team I think of

Injury killed Miller Hinostroza is a useful winger for the 3rd line so taking a 5th for him only hurts our present growth for a lottery ticket.

Sounds like to a degree; he hopes that by not upsetting the applecart that the core will have some success in the remaining 19 games and will truly gel. And if Hinostroza and Miller are important to that for this year in particular, then that is likely more valuable than a 6th in 2023.

Guess the offers were truly garbage for everyone

Canucks caved on that

Half retention comes pretty close to that

Based on the absurd prices paid for the most part this deadline on Dmen, I'd say a 2nd is closer to the value than a 5th.

If teams are only offering a 5th for a playoff experienced Dman in Miller than I take my ball and go home. If Adams refuses a 3rd because he wants a 2nd I'll be more in duda's camp

I wouldn't say bad; more inconsistent. He'd have good games, bad games, mediocre games; had his confidence beat up a bit in November. What really shows is that he lacks much of the hesitation he had pre-All Star game. He's committing to using the body to make plays, defending as well as attacking and elevating his partners. In a sense, Dahlin right now is playing as a Superstar should; consistently above average and making positive impacts on every game. Even Eichel never strung together this many 60 minute efforts in a 20 game period. (Eichel always had a tendency of having off-games and many games where he seemed to coast 2 periods and turn it on in the 3rd. Not literal coasting mind you, but never giving 100% shift after shift regardless of the circumstances.)

Whatever happened at that All Star game seems to have made him personally elevate his game in all facets

Dahlin with the key 2nd goal's entry and pass and then the OT dagger. He looked incredible in this game. I keep Hinostroza if I can't get a 3rd or more.

So depending on what they spent for Dermott, they may end up with a pure net positive Can anyone explain how Hamonic = Dermott?

Negative interest, he's Hutton v2.

Oof

Even worse, CGY's 6th

Just looked at it Reinhart was for their 1st and Levi Risto got Phily's 1st, 2nd in 2023 and Hagg

3rd/4th 2022 2nd/4th 2023 3rd/4th 2024

And in what way is that bad? I'm not wishing long term health concerns on the guy. Just endless torture in hockey-centric ways. (Effectively, desiring for his floors to be covered in Legos at night when he walks in barefoot, style aggravation.)

My guess is a 3-fold combination 1. Exhaustion, playing for 3 separate teams in the past 5 months can't be easy; not to mention needing to go to China 2. Nagging injuries, likely lower body but not serious enough to take him out of the lineup. 3. With parts 1 & 2, coaches are having him play a more defensive role seeing as they still have Hughes. It's the luxury of having multiple high end Dmen.

8 years 6.5 mil extension supposedly being signed now

Quinn drives the net with 15 seconds to go in OT and helps create a greasy goal for Jankowski. 1g 2a for Quinn for his 2nd night in a row.

Supposedly they intend to sign him

Ticked off that Lindholm went to Boston

Supposedly Pittsburgh is interested in Hagg due to his connection with Hextall

Just a rough night; nothing else to say. Dahlin likely scored but doesn't even get a PP from it. Puck bouncing like a basketball. Sabres were dazed in the 1st, bounced back in the 2nd but could never find a bounce to give them a shot. Also #### Smith, he's supposed to suck these days and he 's made a myriad of saves
