There’s about 4-5 teams other than Buffalo that he wants to hear from. And then after that he’s going to make a decision. I think he’d love for the Bruins to be one of those teams. I assume that we will be taking a call from them." “We’ve looked at depth charts with some teams and talked about them. . . . “There’s obviously a lot of thought that goes into it: The city, the coach, the GM, the salary structure, how a team treats their players in the second and third contracts down the road. That said, Jimmy is acting like a little bitch and I can't wait for him to stop taking up all my damn time, you know, he's not the only client I have, but he doesn't seem to get that. He needs to be coddled 24 hours a day by me and my agency, good luck to whichever franchise Jimmy chooses to make miserable for the next half dozen years."

whaaaaaaat

We'll get to see him skate in the World Cup in 27 days.

What about the "Nites"? That would make more sense for Vegans.

Apparently the rights to the name "Knights" in Canada belongs to the OHL's London franchise. However that flies in the face of the Rangers and Hurricanes who also have NHL teams of the same names, so I don't know what's so special about London's use of "Knights" that precludes LV from using the same name for their NHL franchise.

I already boo him when I watch the Foxboro league videos.... and I'll boo him whenever I see him play here in ANA. Retrospectively, I'm actually booing the process that allowed him to take the stance that he is. At no point should a player who was drafted be able to choose which team he signs with until they earn UFA status by accruing actual NHL seasons played.

ANA still boos Justin Schultz, every single time he touches the puck. I've been at games as recently as this past season, and it still happens. Even tho it occured 4 years ago ANA fans are still bitter he didn't choose them . The difference is ANA actually drafted him.. so ANA is more like NSH in this case than BUF, but those wounds still run deep in Ducks land.... and I wouldn't call those fans the most passionate bunch in the league either.

Just had a panic attack considering this thread will die in less than a week.

What a boost that would be to have Ennis back at full capacity.

We'll we already knew Vesey likes to mis-lead people and basically just tells everyone he talks to what they want to hear. Whatever he does won't come as a surprise.

If he Vesey struggles in BUF it could negatively impact Eichel's development. He'll be bombarded with questions from the media "What's wrong with your bud Jimmy?... Why isn't he performing? etc...." Jack already has enough pressure on him, if his friend get's demoted he'll feel it's partly his fault and try too hard to set him up for goals, etc.... it could backfire in a big way.

PIT is OVER the cap at the moment by nearly 3 mil. They cannot offer him max ELC bonus incentives because of this. So unless they trade Fluery before the 15th, he's likely not going there.

This thread is getting too far down the page. 5 days until the 15th Jimmy, wonder how many scouts will be at the Foxboro arena tonight?

more evidence why i'm not a GM

Man alive. Moravec's stick is about 2 feet long and candy-cane wrapped, along with the black tuuks, just brutal.... no wonder he played a grand total of 1 games in the NHL.... which I guess isn't bad for an 8th round draft pick. Those don't even exist anymore.

It solves a problem for all 3 teams. CGY needs d-men. ANA needs young skilled wingers and have too many d-men. (I suppose they could just go Lindholm for Gaudreau and be done with it, but that wouldn't be any fun for us) BUF needs a stud D-man of GMTM's choosing, not one of Darcy's picks.

How about a 3-way deal with Anaheim for Lindholm? to CGY: Ristolainen to BUF: Lindholm to ANA: Gaudreau

Not gonna happen, but would you consider trading Rasmus for either Gaudreau or Monahan?

6 to 7 is a decent promotion, congratulations.

That was terrible crash, word is she has regained consciousness in the ambulance. Looked like she snapped her neck tho.

#5 on red tries to take out Eichels knee around the 51:40 mark. Vesey immediately jumps in the guys face and some pleasantries are exchanged. #12 takes a guy out and then heads for red's bench to have more words.

Latest foxboro league video was actually entertaining... https://youtu.be/-I4L06e6ugY Eichel waa visibly rattled and went after some kid at one point handing out a few good crosschecks and slashes. Later some kid plays the body on him and his teammate goes after the guy.... shows even elite level athletes aren't immune to typical beer league shenanigans.
