    Mitts, 16OA and Johnson was an idea.

    Portillo’s name thrown around as a sweetener later because they didn’t think that was enough.

    I have to admit that I do love watching Cozens and Dubois playing together at the Worlds. That would be a long term playoff line.

    If you knew what Dubois would want on a long term deal then I would definitely consider it.

    I figured the game would be tight and they would try to out- physical each other. All the talking heads were saying what a bloodbath this series was going to be. I thought so too, and it still might. 

    Never mind, its starting, lol

    I called them and told them you weren’t impressed. They said to hold their beers.😁

    Ugly as in physicality, but that quick response by Edmonton changed everything. That's "what I am talking about". This game was billed to be an all out war. That hasn't happened yet. 

    It’s not going to happen unless Calgary get up by 4 or 5 late.

    This Flames game gonna get ugly real quick. Oilers need a wake up call. But so far, this game isn't living up to expectations. 

    It is 3-1 less then 10 minutes in. What are you talking about?

    Gauthier at 6 and Pronman stating some scouts are liking him in the top 5.

    Looks like the dream of getting him at 9 is going to die early.

    The thought has always been that playoffs are big boy hockey. Big, skilled players make the difference. NHL front offices believe that.

    That is why I think both Gauthier and Geekie will be picked before #9.

  6. DeBoer is a jerk. One of the talking heads said MAF wouldn’t go back to Vegas because of DeBoer.

    He was canned because someone had to take the fall and it was either Pete or Foley would can McPhee or McCrimmon.

     

    Also, Isles promotes Lane Lambert to Head Coach. Weird that he has been Trotz’s right hand man for 11 years and they boot Trotz and promote him.

    Nylander replaces Johnny Hockey on top line line with fellow Swede Lindholm.

    Ah, so if Gaudreau walks. That could make sense but Mangiapane is a big part for them and Nylander is the anthesis of Daryl Sutter hockey.  But if he bought in it might work.

  8. They took a boom/bust type guy in Rosen last year at #14. Wonder if that will play into #16 this year. If they will play it safe or if they swing for the fences again.

    I guess a lot will depend on who they grab at #9. My totally uninformed prediction for #9 is Gauthier or a falling Savoie.
