    ARI might be trying to move up. Darcy's up to something. Sabres table busy doing research.

    Wow, Islanders look a little dumb trading a former 4th overall for a 16 and 31. Must be someone they want left on the board.

    GMTM having a quick chat with Don Maloney, ARI GM.
  4. IKnowPhysics
    Dan Bylsma left with Gilbert. GMTM walked across the floor to the waiting area for GMs to be interviewed on... NHLN? Not TSN or NBCSN. Could be calm for a while?
  5. IKnowPhysics
    Don't like seeing Compher go, but if GMTM wants to change the franchise, he just did. All aboard!
  6. IKnowPhysics
    GMTM on the phone.
  7. IKnowPhysics
    All tables seated.
  8. IKnowPhysics
    GMTM now discussing with Dan and Terry.
  9. IKnowPhysics
    Oh, they're talking.

    The ARI table seems to be concentrating, all hands present. Most tables other tables dispersed, chatty. Boston looks like they're waiting for something.
  11. IKnowPhysics
    Not currently on the phone. Security getting a little tight around here.

    Within 3 feet of Jack.

    Nah, I couldn't get one together- didn't have access to a printer this week. I thought about doing a Jack Eichel paper mask, still didn't have the resources.

    Sitting next to the Buffalo table. Got my blank road jersey and beard on. Shook hands with Duffer. Kinda funny: Darcy is at the next table for ARI, Lindy is at the other next table for DAL. Had a horrific daydream where Boston trades 13,14,and 15 for 2. They would kill to get Eichel in Beantown.

    Hopefully the fire cools down a little bit. Lehner was drafted in 2009 when GMTM was AGM in Ottawa and GM in Binghamton. It can't be known if GMTM was the reason he was drafted, but it's possible. Lehner was the 2nd goalie drafted in 2009 at #46 (6'6" Koskinen from Finland at #31 who fled from the Islanders back to Finland after his ELC). Was IS known is that Lehner was brought to the AHL asap to play for Binghamton and became the starter almost immediately before gettin callups to Ottawa. That would likely be the result of GMTM as GM of Bingo. Tim's been watching this kid since before the 2009 draft. If any GMs know him, it's him and Terry Murray. We knew Tim was going to make a move on a goalie soon. I didn't think he would risk next season to the decisions of the free agents or the other GMs trying to sign goalies. I speculate that Tim was given first right of refusal on Lehner by Terry. As Duffer says, almost apologetically, if Lehner is the player Tim thinks he can be, we just got a good deal. He's the right age too- he should develop on a similar timeline as the other kids.

    Nice thought. Black said in the TBN article that you can force a reduction in the number of back to backs because you can't play the night before an afternoon. Harrington noted humorously that it might be to keep the kids off Chippewa at night.

    Weird that we don't see new division rivals Florida after game 53 or Tampa after game 15. Can't imagine how that came to be. The afternoon games may be by design, if Canisius or another team (Beauts?) plays Saturday nights at the HarborCenter. Now, NHL scheduling shouldn't take a backseat to these games, but it may be that NCAA hockey doesn't allow for Saturday matinees after playing Friday nights? (NCAA usually plays home weekends consisting of Friday Saturday pairs of games)

    He's a stone-cold psychopathic killer. He takes no joy in expressing pugilistic rage, but does not hesitate for a split second to go into left-right-left-right kill mode. I mean, look at this . Look at his eyes. And who can forget his first bout in the end-of-season trasher against the Islanders: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifa8-AkovuU

    We are so stacked with fluid assets, including picks, prospects, players, cap space, and roster room that we're capable of just about anything. We'll definitely address goaltending, but maybe not until July 1. We'll also take a goalie in the draft, potentially in the first two rounds. That 21 and 31 pick give us the ability to trade up, down, sideways, diagonally, or into the fourth dimension. I think we could see the acquisition of two players, one considerable and one minor or prospect, before July 1.

    Hope is morphine.
  22. IKnowPhysics
    Yep, TM said they're letting him hit UFA, and maybe they'll come back to him.

    Terry Murray coached the Kings from '08 until '12. According to wiki: "When the Kings won the 2012 Stanley Cup Finals under current head coach Darryl Sutter, they requested the NHL to have Murray's name included on the cup, but were denied by the NHL."

    This is where Bogo is now. This is what I think Bogo could develop to be, even on a contender. He's a 3rd overall pick, and he's only 24 (younger than Myers by 6 months).

    Sounds like someone could start a house league that expels .
