^wonder if there are any players worth us picking up from this fire sale

 

[guymez]

It's really bizarre. I felt for him when he came out with his story of his mental health issues... But its not like having a sad story gives you free license to be a dbag. He needs to move on if he's ever going to recover from that. Essentially trolling the oilers is hardly coming to terms with things.

Well put.
I agree 100%.

 

[BlackDogg]

We have 4 forwards that can skate
McDavid
Draisaitl
RNH
Kassian

Not enough.

Kassian is basically another McDavid, only slower and without the good moves.....

And the ability to stop before crashing into the boards behind the net...

paul kariya looks younger than tyler benson

 

[Yeah15]

Yamamoto with 3 pts in first period back in Spokane, good stuff

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

Useless Bruins.

 

[The Panther]

Yamamoto with 3 pts in first period back in Spokane, good stuff

I personally would have kept Yamamoto; I liked his stuff. But I guess they thought since the chemistry was way off, it's better not to bring in another new player, which kind of makes sense. I hope he's with the club later this year, or next season anyway.

Yakupov in Stockholm, close enough to Mother Russia, could this be the first case of a player defecting back to Russia or are there precedents? .

countless Russian players have gone back to Russia... it happens on a regular basis.

 

[BlackDogg]

How did the Bruins lose this time - last time I checked they were up in the third.

 

[Drivesaitl]

I know, it was just meant tongue in cheek. For instance that you don't have to "defect" back to Russia was indication I was just Jokinen around.

Ostap.... leave 'em Malone... don't be a Maroon, he knew what you meant. I don't Khaira for your attitude... always trying to Russell up everyone here and thinking you are smarter than the average Bear.

 

[booyakasha]

was looking forwward to the Maple leafs game, but without Matthews, I don't really care to watch.

 

[CycloneSweep]

Islanders all over the Blues

jeff marek is a f***ing fool

 

[Del Preston]

jeff marek is a ****ing fool

What did he say now?

 

[BoldNewLettuce]

What did he say now?

He spoke with John Shannon

 

[Paralyzer]

"Calgary Flames president of hockey operations Brian Burke said Monday he's glad struggling forward Sam Bennett is playing in Calgary and not facing the media scrutiny of Toronto. "If he was going through that here he'd be getting crucified," Burke told TSN 1050 on Monday."

Burke: Glad Bennett is in Calgary, not Toronto amid tough start - Article - TSN

Uhhhh what? He's getting crucified by the whole NHL! Where does Burke live? Under a rock? Must be a Fraggle...

 

[Tobias Kahun]

Bennett is really truculent, especially when taking penalties 200 ft from his net

 

[CycloneSweep]

Bennett is really truculent, especially when taking penalties 200 ft from his net

He is basically Benoit Pouliot 2.0.
Both drafted 4th overall.

I just realized that he was drafted 4th in the Crosby draft.
Price went 5th

 

[oilers'72]

4 teams managed to drag themselves out of bed after the weekend and put on the skates tonight.

Dallas at Carolina @ 5 PM TVAS, FS-CR, FS-SW
St. Louis at Calgary @ 7 PM SNW, FS-MW

 

[NeverForget06]

Everybody loves talking about Drai's contract but you don't hear too much about how Johansen hasn't even scored yet

 

[Del Preston]

Carolina taking down Dallas. 4-1 in the third.

 

[CycloneSweep]

I hate that Calgary is looking good against St Louis

 

[Yeah15]

I hate that Calgary is looking good against St Louis

Yeah it's frustrating, would be nice if we could get this kind of effort from all 4 lines in one game that the Flames are getting tonight.
