    Just found Canton on google maps.  Looks very nice.  Is it full-blown mountains where you are?

    BTW, you probably already know this, but the border crossing at Thousand Islands is quite pretty and there is a great duty free store there with a very good scotch selection.

    It’s a nice small town.  20 minutes from the Adirondack Park. Two colleges here.  SUNY Canton and St Lawrence. 
    But lots of nature all around.

    Jost would have provided insight on that exact point.

    Greenway is too young to be washed up. He just fell out of favour with the coach or couldn’t find a role in the changes.

    Guerin wanted much needed cap space.

    Greenway is from Canton NY, does that provide a bit of a Tuch vibe?

    I grew up in Buffalo and just moved to Canton a couple years ago.  Everyone up here LOVES him.  His jersey is framed on walls in a lot of buildings. 
    I’m hearing unfortunately he grew up a Rangers fan (most people up here are Rangers fans)

    And IF a legit goalie add is in the works, could see why Adams wouldn't want this year's 1st included in a package for Chychrun.  Would much rather have Saros than Chychrun even though the overall cost would be (significantly) higher.

    What would someone like Saros cost us?

    They don't have to trade him, and if they're not going to get fair value for him, they shouldn't (just like the Sabres should have said FU to the league and to Hall a few years ago).

    Hall was a UFA.  Better to get something than nothing I guess.  But with Chychrun they can try to trade him again in the off-season.

    Say what now?  Bloom is absolutely not a known.  And if he is a known and they moved him anyway, that should tell you that what KA does know about him indicates that he sees more value in Fitz2.0 than he does in what he knows about Bloom.

    I can’t believe the energy being expended over the movement of a guy with about 10-15% chance to play 100 games in the NHL.

    I remember being bummed we traded Cluff Pu to Carolina.  Thought for sure he was going to become something

    Zetterlund is better than Rousek. Or at least he’s bigger and faster and proven much more at the same age.

    That said, if those are the 2 best pieces, Devils made out like bandits

    And that’s exactly why I said I hope devils give up a lot.  Because I don’t want to be mad thinking Adams should’ve pulled the trigger.

    "Where he's struggled quite a bit, though, was the physical game. This is arguably where we've seen the most growth from Östlund this season. If last season he got pushed around a lot against men, he's now frequently coming out on top from board battles, leveraging his posture as an advantage to win body positioning. He's still not the biggest or strongest, but he now has more physical skill than before."

    I think a lot of people out there and on this board are sleeping on Östlund.  They continue to mention guys like Kulich and Savoie way ahead of him.  I keep seeing people say they are ok with trading him but not certain guys. 
    Östlund is going to be a heck of a player.

    This would be a good guy to flip Johnson for. Johnson is from Cali and Thrun is from Mass. so if you can have both sign with the trading team you are good to go. 

    Is Thrun worth at least a 2nd?  Cause don’t we at least get that if Johnson doesn’t sign? 
    And then if Thrun didn’t sign with us we lost out on that 2nd round compensation.
