Around the NHL 2017

I'm sure there's a work around, but I don't get the feeling they'd want Gionta around instead of any of those other guys. If they did, he'd be here already.

Likely accurate. But, if he & his agent thought surely they'd get an NHL offer by the end of September & the Sabres saw a reason to have him at the AHL level but (like 30 other teams) don't see him as an NHLer any longer; that would be a reason for him not to be brought in yet.

Guess we'll be breaking out the ol' CD collection to listen to something during the NBCSN games. It was easy enough to ignore him during the intermissions; will be tougher during play.

The NHL Top 50 thing is a bloody joke

 

Here's 11-20 https://www.nhl.com/news/nhl-top-players-11-to-20/c-291252456

 

Eichel was #37

Laine was #29

Matthews is going to be in the Top 10, that is positively absurd. He's supposedly better than Tarasenko, Stamkos, Tavares, Hedman, Backstrom among many others.......

 

I really hope to God Matthews trainwrecks this season, just to see the NHL stop riding him like a golden goose.

Maybe Jack Eichel should put up or shut up.

TSN is reporting that the Blues are sniffing around Jagr.

Wouldn't do that too closely. The kind of diet he has to be on to stay in good enough shape to be older than Methuselah and still play at an NHL level must make some really weird odors come off him. ;)
