If those type of guys were actually available I would have no problem giving up Rosen or Östlund for them. Young, long term pieces.

Krebs looks ready to breakout next year too. Too many people sleep on him.

So then who are you trading for?

Why? Sign Dumba or Severson and give up no assets. Who is this Dman you are moving Östlund for?

That would be a mistake in my mind. He has a ton of Sebastian Aho traits to his game.

Hmmm St Louis Blues GM Doug Armstrong is GM for Canada. st Louis Blues goalie Hofer is playing🤔

Norway’s second goal of the game was from the side boards. It was an all around awful game for Hofer. But he is 6’6 while Levi is 6 foot so he is better.😛

https://www.hockeybuzz.com/blog/Eklund/Monday-RumorsOn-Nylander-Bertuzzi-Dumba-OReilly-Meier-Orlov-Buzz1/1/121788 Good ol Eklund keeps hearing Sabres have major interest in Bertuzzi. So cross him off the list as an option.

Hofer completely 💩 the bed in the shootout. If only Canada had a goalie that was great in the shootout😳

Östlund not skating at all with foot injury. The SHL team he is connected to won the championship so either Sweden or Rochester sound like they would be good options for him. I think his dream is to win a SHL title so that is probably where he is leaning.

Canada pulls the goalie. Quinn hits the post. Crouse scores with 11 seconds left to tie the game

Hofer in net for Canada over Levi. Canada down to Norway 1-0.

Who was the guy who sliced EK65’s ankle and put him out of the playoffs?

He can play. He signed his elc last summer. Once his junior season is over he is eligible to play in the AHL. If the Sabres were in the playoffs he could play for them right now.

How can they possibly pay him more money. They gave him one of the worst contracts in the league. Overpaid for 5 years that walked him right to UFA. He hasn’t delivered when it counts and he wants another raise. They have to trade him.

I have yet to see Luke Hughes play D and I have watched him play many times😛

The frustration is Hagel was playing his style in junior. There was projection there. To not even sign him to an elc when Rochester were desperate for bodies was just so dumb.

Michkov is the ultimate wildcard with this draft. The talent is there to be in the same breath as Bedard, Fantilli, Carlsson but the Russian factor, the contract and Rumor he might add 2 more years to it, the unknown around his dad’s passing (is there more to the story we will not know about because of Russia) all have to be weighed by GMs. I have no idea where he is picked. Arizona with 2 top 12 picks, Washington or Detroit are my best bets. Im intrigued by Pronman’s statement that he is hearing that Benson might be available in the teens because of size. Him and Savoie are dynamite together. I have a hard time believing he falls that far but stranger things have happened at the draft.

Yep and everybody seems to forget that this season is a revelation for Montour. Even last season he was nothing special for Florida. He is having a career year at 29/30 years old. His trade value a couple years ago shouldn’t be based on what he is doing this season.

We will have to see if he is assigned there. He might be banged up after the playoff run.

Both Milic and Hauser were great all season. Nice to see smaller goalies making a comeback. Savoie had a ton of chances he just couldn’t get it to go. What I was most encouraged about with Savoie was he doggedness to throw the body and physically engage and battle against a much bigger team. Seattle were full marks for their WHL Championship.

Hopefully Davies and Ciccone back. Love to see Pilut but he may get a chance somewhere else

Savoie’s season is over. Seemed snakebitten tonight. That Seattle Team is a machine. Announcer said it is the best junior team he has seen. Big, skilled and defensively a rock. I really liked #4, Hanzel. 19 year old rock solid dman that hasn’t been drafted. I will be shocked if they don’t win the Memorial Cup. I wonder if Savoie is headed to Rochester next week.

Does anyone know if Glovtov still belongs to Buffalo? He is 25 now and had a couple decent years in the KHL. He was well liked by teammates. He might be the best option as a guy that could play for the Amerks and be a mentor for these Russian kids. Wonder if he was interested in coming back.
