  1. Not the end of the world but that was brutal. Might have been the easiest opponent of the month.
  2. Ho hum, another award. Congrats Devon, keep it up, but don’t go too deep into the playoffs. I would like you to sign ASAP.
  3. The Last of Us has captured me. Bella Ramsey is really good. I liked her in Game of Thrones and she has taken herself to another level.
  4. Do not take any opponent lightly. Come out strong and keep your foot on the gas. Quinn will have another good showing. 5-2 Sabres. Let’s go Buffalo!
  5. Puljujarvi was awesome at the World Juniors with Aho and Laine. Long time ago….
  6. Too bad if Dahlin doesn’t play. I want to see him pump up his stats in the Norris race. Get well and finish strong.
  7. I think JJP is faster than Quinn in a straight line race. I think he will be bigger and more physical than Quinn. Quinn has better edge work and can dangle through traffic. Quinn has a better shot. The biggest difference is hockey IQ, Quinn has it in spades.
  8. For sure he is trying to justify this trade. He obviously really wanted Jeannot and Poile sensed it, holding out for maximum value. The Bolts are in a different position than most teams, 3 consecutive finals and still having their core. His view of picks is different than say Chicago, at this point in time. Chicago was doing this type of trade when they were winning 3 Cups. Draft picks played a role in getting Stamkos, Hedman, Kucherov, Vasilevskiy and Point. I think he over payed by a lot but they may win a Cup.
  9. Not exactly a trade that moves the needle. I’ve seen Bloom play a lot. He is a long term prospect that will play in the AHL and may never crack the NHL. He is a good junior player but doesn’t drive his line. He is a complimentary player that is good in both directions. He plays PP1 on a good junior team but he is not the playmaker or trigger man. He is often the bumper guy and moves to the net front to clean up rebounds. He is a good PK guy who anticipates well and scores a lot of shorthanded goals. Anyway, he is gone. He was low on the pipeline totem pole and KA probably couldn’t see him in B&G. In my opinion, his ceiling is Dan Paille but will need a lot of work to get there. Stillman I don’t know much about other than he comes from a hockey family. Dad Corey played a long time in the NHL and is currently an assistant in AZ. His brother Chase is a Devils 1st rounder playing in the OHL and was coached by his father in Sudbury. If he is better than Bryson I am happy. I suspect there are other moves afoot here.
  10. I guess the Leafs will get all kinds of picks and prospects at next year’s deadline when they have to sell Matthews or risk losing him for nothing.
  11. I guess they are done with Wayne Simmonds.Their fans were saying how he was the missing grit. Acciari and Lafferty do add grit. Should be an interesting matchup with Tampa.
  12. Dubas all in, mortgaging the future for this year’s run. Please fall on your faces in the first round, again.
