Around the NHL Lucky #13 - A Sign of Things to Come?

Cool! Good for that dirty Oiler.

While we're pumping Oily tires I am a big fan of Louis DeBrusk's commentary.

He's good. Remenda is bad though.

"WOW"

Good for him. Wasn't a fan of Hartley obviously, but he seemed like a fun guy who liked the job.

 

[Anglesmith]

You know like wadda guy dat Bob Hartlijs.

 

[OvermanKingGainer]

So glad Sid overtook Connor in the Art Ross race. How it should be.

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Good to see the Kings lose in regulation tonight... to the Canucks!! LOL

Panarin with a 2 year $6 mill aav with Chicago. As long as he doesn't get seriously injured in those seasons he is gonna cash in. Will be a UFA at 27 I believe.

How does Chicago afford that contract? That team next year will be 80% ELC and vets.

I read somewhere that for next year they have ~$50,000,000 tied up in 7 players. That would mean around ~$25,000,000 for the other 16 players. That's crazy.

 

[Volica]

They have 66.6 million tied up into 15 players from their roster today. If the cap stays flat, that's 6.3 million to sign 9 players. Including the 5 ELC's they'll have included in those 15 players, the large majority of their team will be entry-level.

Boy do those matching 10 mil contracts look bad now.

They are probably going to move Kruger

 

[Calgareee]

They are probably going to move Kruger

I see that as the standard way that they'll fit but how are they going to entice someone to take him?? Why would some other GM do them that favor and I'm not even sure he's worth that contract.

Same way hey got rid of Bickell, attach a pick/prospect to the player to make them more attractive. Or they move Anisimov for lesser player(s) like they did Saad.

Unbelievable. I have the Leafs game on and they just did a 10 minute piece on the Gilmour trade and how they fleeced the Flames. Holy **** Toronto, let it go already. *******s.

When that is the most exciting thing to happen to that franchise during the time most of their fans have been alive, what do you expect?

 

[Mobiandi]

They still go on and on about Gretzky's high stick on Gilmour too. At least, the "it was in" Flames fans gave it a rest before it got too embarrassing

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Even Kruger is overpaid lol. It's not an easy move.

Honestly I could see them moving Seabrook for someone like Nurse + pick.

Kerry Fraser mentioned in his C'mon Ref articles multiple times that he hears about that missed call almost daily even to this day.

now that you mention it... Haha

Jaro Halak put on waivers by the Islanders.

Jaro Halak put on waivers by the Islanders.

Oilers will be on that for sure

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

Oilers will be on that for sure

Why?

 

[Carolinas Identity*]

Why?

he is better than talbot

i kinda hope carolina puts in a claim on him tho

 

[Mobiandi]

Why?

When he's on, he's exponentially better than anything the Oilers have. If he finds his game, he'll be the waiver pick-up of the decade since I highly doubt he clears it

 

[Anglesmith]

Halak would actually be a smart add, I think. He was outwardly unhappy at the situation in Brooklyn with three goalies, to the extent of his agent making a complaint to the media. You never know how motivated he would be to play witha new team in a better situation.
