Report is CHI shopping Kane, mentioned NJD, CAR and BUF as interested parties.

Just got home from the Yankees/Angles game. WTF was Girardi doing putting in Clippard and not using Betances at any point. Dumb.

Petersen? He's not that good, will be a fringe NHL player. People need to get it out of their heads that he has a future as a starter in the NHL.

Mittlestadt!

He was shitcanned before he could fix it. He knew it was priority #1 this offseason, but he didn't have the chance. Folks forget that he inherited one of the worst all time teams in recent memory... two offseaons wasn't enough to address all the needs... he didn't do anything wrong IMO.

Chychrun, McAvoy, Sergachev, Hanifin, Provorov, Werenski....

So we give Vegas Lehner, in return they take Moulson? Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Actually..... I'll allow it.

So. When is all this "wheeling and dealing" going to happen? They only have until Sat 5p ET (trade freeze).

...and BUF is the only team in the league without a head coach, so JBOT has no reason to speed up the process.

Why? WSH took PIT to 7 games. They also posted a +157 5v5 SAT in just 13 games, vs +75 for NSH.

If you want someone to improve the play of the defensemen and improve shot suppression, then Todd Reirden is your guy. http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/reirden-would-be-a-perfect-fit-for-sabres-coaching-vacancy The number one issue plaguing the Sabres is shot suppression. WSH struggled in that are until Reirden showed up. IMO, Housley would be a high risk hire, he's a younger, less experienced version of Reirden.

Where's the links that show the inside of plane in real time?

I live 4hrs away and my boys are rabid hockey fans. Cheap rooms in Vegas on a weekday, and free VIP tickets for the show. We'll spend a few extra days there, hit up Top Golf, some rides, attractions etc. We were just there in February on our way to Brian Head, UT... but this time we're also hoping for a Bieber or Nickelback sighting.

Fake news! http://flightaware.com/live/fleet/XSR

They'll reveal the team at the NHL awards show next Wed in Vegas at the T-Mobile Arena. I'll be there with my boys.

Maybe Housley doesn't want the job.

June 20th is the reveal date btw.

so it's just a new third jersey? no changes to the existing home/away's? lame

I want Reirden because I think he's the best fit for Buffalo.... but if I had to guess I would say Tocchet is his guy. http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/reirden-would-be-a-perfect-fit-for-sabres-coaching-vacancy

I like this idea. Make them an RFA... if they want to become an UFA then they have to sit out a year.

welp, no royal blue.... sucks, but I'm OK with it. Getting rid of the grey piping and armpits would be an improvement.

The NFL combine is grown men, the NHL combine is high school age kids. I don't think strength tests are important for the NHL combine. I'd rather see on ice agility and speed testing... reaction time is also important. Those are things that really don't depend a whole lot on how physically mature you are. I think some junior leagues have extensive one ice testing.

That's amazing.

That's not just any "tattoo", it's Bailey, the Kings mascot. He's trying to send a message to TOR that he wants out, wants to play on the West coast so he can live his lavish fancy Euro-boy lifestyle he got accustomed to as a teenager because he was too lazy to complete his High School equivalency since money is the only motivating factor that brings him to the rink everyday.

Vote buy. I think he's the best option for next season. Offer him a 3 year deal at $4 per. Or if GMJBOT decides he's a lockerroom cancer, then do something else.
