  1. We gave up one for Disco Dan. The other is conditional on Anaheim not making the WCF. We have ours, St Louis and the stars. The Isles 3rd for Neuvirth went to Pittsburgh.
  2. I just hope he was watching Tavares last night. If he can develop that nose for the puck in tight I think he will be truly special. I think he is as gifted as JT but with more speed.
  3. That's correct. Similarly, USA Hockey or Hockey Canada would have to ensure their players. That would be cost prohibitive. It is also the problem facing future participation in the Olympics. The worlds are a great way for young players to develop, and the contracts are usually low (Oreilly being and exception). But after the Tavares injury, the NHL is rethinking the value of disrupting their season, for an exhibition with a lot of downside.
  4. I can't watch these anymore. Pipe dreams and all that. Man would he be a beast on a power play.
  5. Because he is essentially without a contract, Finland won't allow him to play due to injury concerns. Players under contract get releases from their clubs that indicate that in the event of injury the conduct of playing will not invalidate their contract.
  6. I will miss Pavel Datsyuk. Only two other players made me shake my head in astonishment as many times as him ...Perreault and Lemieux. Mainly because he never had overwhelming physical presence. Just an uncanny knack of making the right play at the right time. Good luck Pavel, and thanks.
  7. That dude cod ball!
  8. Like I said if there was a poster of you I would buy it. If public support is a factor in coming out of relegation, I am sure SS would be behind any effort you propose. I hope MODO gets its mojo back asap. And we are better for your insight into MODO hockey and the SHL. And pannies.
  9. Not sure Inam reading it correctly, but the own the puck player comparison between Fowler and McCabe are even. Fowler has more assists per 60 but Jake has better possession numbers.
  10. Player has a very checkered history when it comes to exploitation and apartheid. It does not surprise me one bit.
  11. Can't get the link to paste via phone, but I agree with the higher potential upside.
  12. McKeens has Laine at #1 ahead of Matthews.
  13. Ty.
  14. Anaheim could make the WCF, turning the pick they sent us into a two. They may want it back, plus a Bailey or Fasching. Throw in Pysyk and presto all good. I would like to keep the pick because I have a strange feeling someone will reach in front of us and a surprise falls in our lap.
  15. The Chappell meme was used on this board a lot last year. He is referring to world golf ranking points. Did not hear the Player comment.
  16. His name is Aaron Alpern, and his Twitter handle is buffalo looper. "Pickup hockey role player, caddie." Hie Twitter feed is pure excitement about the Bruins missing the playoffs
  17. If it's on a weekend I would make the trip from the Windy City.
  18. Where's the trailer?
  19. Modo pregame warm up videos.
  20. Risto's hat trick was atreat as well
  21. I knew we had something special when he took it to the middle against Tampa and shrugged off a defender in the process. There was chatter about being fragile, and that was the proof that he was not afraid. Last night he had every right to shoot and he feathers one to Sam who with his uncanny tip skills redirects it in. I couldn't bank on Sam doing that but Jack did. And Sam delivered.
  22. Yep. I wont even go into my Boeser lament
  23. 30 teams have a shot at him.
  24. Dont flatter yourself he has 5 years until he hits almost :flirt:
  25. DD gettin nutty with nothin to lose. Alot rookies out there at the end....hmm
