Yeah, I watched him closely. He would fill a hole and could extend if conditions are right.

Comrie has actually won his last three starts. WPG, ANA, TBL.

I’m OK with that.

100% correct, my bad.

I read somewhere that the second in 2024 is conditional and could turn into a first. I’ll try and find the link.

The desire to make a move increases as other teams make them. I keep reminding myself only one team wins the Cup while a dozen of them make moves and add that ‘missing’ piece. The deal that pops into my mind is Giroux last year. They added a veteran star to a Presidents Cup team and fizzled. There are many examples of these types of deals every year. I trust KA with the approach he has taken so far. He has said it and he will not mortgage the future for a high priced rental. I think goal is where the biggest need is but there is not much available and the cost is probably steep. I can’t see Nashville moving Saros. Demko could be a possibility. Defense needs some veteran help and I prefer a guy like Jensen. He is a rental but won’t cost a lot. The Sabres have plenty of forwards but I could see adding Greenway for depth and a component they don’t have. I still want him to use that cap space and acquire assets that can be used to improve draft position, move to fill holes or even stock the cupboard with more prospects. He can help multiple teams get their magic beans and get something in every deal.

I’m curious about Greenway from the Wild. He has scored a bit over the last few years. Huge winger(6’6” 230), I don’t know about his skating. He could be a reclamation project for DG, coached him at USNDTP. Jost would know him. His salary is a bit much for Minny with their coming crunch from Parise/Suter. $3M AAV for two more years. If the ask is in the Jeannot neighborhood it is a big NO. A 2nd or 3rd, sure. He is not putting up any points this year but has scored in last few. 27 pts in 62 games in 21/22 32 pts in 56 games in 20/21

Brisebois is trying to recapture the Blake Coleman, Barclay Goodrow 3rd line grit they had in their first Cup run. That is a lot for Jeannot.

I’m watching that game on Sportsnet. Friedman says it is an injury that is holding this up. He says someone is banged up enough that they are still negotiating. There is someone else going with Meier as well.

Does the top four in the division make the playoffs?

Verhaege hit him in the back too. He went off and missed PP after that one.

He doesn’t look like Boris from Bulwinkle & Rocky in that pic.

Best run support in the league would be my guess. The next Grant Fuhr (Oilers edition).

Adds pages to the GDT, making us look like we are wordsmiths.

That is an entirely new direction for Trotz. He knows that organization, good for him.

Anderson’s body can’t handle enough games. Play him as much as he can handle. Comrie is still trying to get his footing, needs more starts. They need more games to see what he can do. UPL wins quite a few but makes me flinch on every shot. Do not anoint him #1

Make those games in hand count! Bring on Columbus. Caps have to go into seller mode now. This game wasn’t the last nail in their coffin but…

I thought Jensen looked good, he would be a solid add.

Big win at home, I’m happy for the fans that made it. Three game winning streak, keep it going. Cozens and Quinn were my stars of the game. Power was good, with added responsibility. Bryson can still go, VO brought nothing. UPL manages to win, I guess they keep 3 goalies.

I think he can stay up after the trade deadline, no 23 man roster limit.

The third period is where the Caps legs will give out. Gotta skate.

Quinn will come back in the third and complete the Howe.

I would take Jensen for a 2nd or 3rd round pick.

Comrie should have started, UPL doesn’t give meany confidence. The boys better score at last 5 today.
