  1. He is a great depth piece. AHL all star, serviceable 3 rd pairing NHL tweener. Glad he is back, didn’t like the way Botts treated him here, glad he has a second chance.
  2. So full of talent without Savoie on the ice, Kisakov, Poltapov, Neuchev, Novikov, Cederqvist, And a few others not there. Edit: and Nadeau, how could I forget Nadeau
  3. Adams: “I think we are done for the offseason” Terry hands him a piece of paper with three words on it: Patrick Kane Chychrun
  4. Remember the Pegulas and Chychruns are or were neighbors in Florida. I have no doubt Terry wanted him at the draft when Murray took Nylander.
  5. Do you think Montreal made a mistake with Price or TB with Andrei Vasilevskiy? While goalie might be the hardest position in all of sport to properly scout and project I do think if you feel strong enough about one then take them. Every pick is a crapshoot on some level. The Sabres seemed to feel very strong about the Finnish kid. They might be off but they felt he wouldn’t be there in round 3. He was also their 4th pick of the draft. I generally agree with your philosophy but going high on a goalie every once in a while when you have a bunch of picks isn’t the end of the world.
  6. Rumour is he might be going back to the Avs
  7. Cozens and Savoie hanging out at camp
  8. Husso is a backup who got to play some more games last season but faltered in the playoffs. Let’s not pretend Husso is a slam dunk. He had similar numbers as Comrie but with a larger sample size last year.
  9. 25-26 seems to be the sweet spot where most goalies’ talent and mental maturity catch up to each other and they take off. That is why it is such a crapshoot drafting goalies at 18. Comrie is a roll of the dice but one worth taking. He has a real chance to take the net and run with it.
  10. My God this guy is Adam’s dream player. The Process God😁
  11. He is 31. Great deal for 2 years and then not so much
  12. Yep Capfriendly has it. Like the player would hate that deal if Buffalo signed him for that.
  13. And Dadonov twice😁 Patches and Dadonov are big losses to that lineup with no one replacing them.
  14. Yes but the GM said they expect Backstrom back at some point this year so they can’t replace his money.Who knows but that is what he said last week.
  15. Caps are $2 million over the cap. Lightning are almost $8 million over the cap Pens signed Caguillia and Tokarski😳 Zadorov back to Calgary
  16. Pitt. Burkie gets Sedin Twins flashbacks and can’t help himself😁
  17. Kadri is looking for term. Just doesn’t lineup with anything Adams has said. I think he goes to Calgary or Isles or Rags if they can make it work or Bruins if Bergeron or Krejci don’t return.
  18. Leafs fans and media members here in Toronto are angry they lost him. He is a guy who knows his role, his strengths and plays to them well. 6’2 208lbs, plays the body, plays aggressively in the d zone, very good on the PK. Blocks shots. He will be a fan favourite without ever really contributing offensively. Think Rhett Warrener/ Jay McKee type. Leafs played him with Reilly and was a good ying to Morgan Reilly’s yang. I think he would be a good match for Power.
  19. The most important question of D Camp today: did anyone spot Lindgren’s mom?😁
  20. What I have learned over my years of Development Camp is never judge a goalie on their first camp after they are drafted. They always look lost that initial year. Not expecting much from the Finnish kid this week. Glad to see Levi and Portillo looked good.
  21. So draft night I wanted Savoie at #9. Today I wanted Comrie and Lyubushkin. You’re Welcome Everybody!!😁
  22. Good. Their D depth will be much better than last year.
  23. If he leaves Calgary and then signs that deal in Columbus instead of going home is a bad look on him.
