  1. Would expect Minnesota and Anaheim to be interested. I don't like Roy and whatnot, but I don't deny that he's talented.

     

    @JSportsnet: Thomas Vanek is not dressing tonight in Winnipeg. #hockeycentral

     

    @DennisTFP: Kings : Buffalo sticking to guns on Toffoli. Gaborik audition a flop in Toronto. 3rd option Cammalleri now discussed, could be larger deal

    If Vanek isn't dressing, then we can assume he's being traded, and if Buffalo and the Kings are still having talks concerning Toffoli, I'd assume that means Vanek isn't headed to LA. Lots of assumptions, but what the hell

  2. So the Ducks are unloading a ton, any idea what they're getting in return yet?

     

    I'm sure Penner is going to be thrilled about that move. He lives in South California full time I believe. He won't do much for Washington.

    Just what Washington needs, more inconsistent and unhappy forwards :rolleyes:

  3. Enroth may be small, but ###### he is quick. He can really makes saves on the fly when things break down too, just has a natural sense of what to do when things go haywire. I think if anything Enroth usually gets beat on screen shots/ even open shots because he's small, but he can usually handle his own when things are close around the net

  4. How about we trade Moulson to LA and get Valentin Zykov back as part of the deal. There is a big skilled winger for you.

    He's probably the more reasonable option (I'd be really surprised if Detroit was willing to part with Mantha), but any deal with LA I want either Toffoli or Martin Jones coming back. They're just starting to heat up, and the only thing holding them back is a little offensive help. I think we can get them to overpay for Moulson

  5. I should say I am not in favor of trading Ehrhoff. He brings us the only semblance of competence on the back end. Myers still worries. I'd rather Ehrhoff remain.

    Give me Mantha in any deal for Ehrhoff.

     

    I also don't want to move Ehrhoff or Myers, but if you blow TM away then he should and would consider it.

    I wouldn't be thrilled with moving Ehroff, but you're right: if the return is right move him. LGR4GM is right though, if we move Ehroff we have nothing remotely comparable to a consistently functional NHL d-man, and if we move him and Tallinder, we don't really have anyone to help guide the new group of young d-men. So if we move Ehroff, I'd want some sort of veteran d-man coming back, and looking at Detroit's d-core, that's not something they have a lot of. The only real option that Detroit would part with who could fill in Ehroff's role on this team would be Ericsson IMO. He's more expensive than Ehroff, and not as productive, so I'd think Detroit might be willing to move him.

     

    I'm with you Tank, Mantha is putting up some real nice numbers in the Q this year, and we desperately need some wingers in our farm system.

  6. Don't tell them that they got drunk and had a bar fight, PLF kicked Sawyer in the nuts, and Pegula landed a beer bottle right on LaFontaine's crown, before Ted Nolan busted through the door and socked Terry right in the gut, making Tim Murray laugh so hard he had to give Nolan a contract.

    This is great, I picture him just kicking down a double door, standing they looking at what's happening, and just rushing over and punching TP right in the stomach.

     

    Haven't had a signature on here yet, this seems like the perfect thing to fix that

  7. Given the talk on the "Increasingly Substantiated" thread about a possible deal with Ottawa, as well as Murray's comments on WGR from Toronto yesterday, if they are accurate, then this seems like a resignation based on the trades Murray made/ will make rather than Nolan.

     

    All in all, my initial reaction is PLF is behaving really poorly. I'd much rather Murray in there, unrestricted, than pamper to PLF's needs all the time

  8. Which is why you move him now....

     

    He's had a history of being fragile. Let some other team play out the risk/reward scenario. We are lucky he is back from the abyss. Be happy if he has real value, because 3 months ago his contract probably made him close to untradeable.

     

    Remember....Murray is like a consultant coming into a company at this point. These aren't his guys, and unless he loved someone before he got here, the most efficient move is for him to maximize value and acquire players or picks that will turn into players that HE loves. It's time to convert into Murray Currency....

    From his words about who he drafts, something along the lines of his love for agile, mobile defensmen, a-la Karlsson, Myers would be one of his favorite kind of d-men

  9. I've always had a soft spot for the Blues, they've been terrible lately(prior to Hitchcock) and they haven't won a cup, so adding Miller makes them my team to root for come the playoffs. Plus, with the draft pick coming in 2015, them winning the cup this year doesn't hurt us at all.

     

    That was one the saddest moment I've seen as a fan since the 06 playoffs loss, granted I haven't been around that long, but that was still pretty emotional for Miller. It's nice to see how much this city means to the players, whether they've been here for 12 years or 2.

  10. I never thought Allen was going to be a part of this deal, but I'm kind of disappointed we didn't get Ratti though

     

    I'm calling it right now, I feel very, very confident that St.Louis 2015 1st round pick will be used in a package with one of our other players. Maybe in compensation if we take their first rounder and a better prospect or something along those lines
