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

[MonyontheMoney]

Habs acquired Nesterov

 

[Flames Fanatic]

Isles sign Greiss to a 3 year deal.

Works well for us, as one less team looking for a starter in the off season.

Isles ALSO might be kicked out of the Barclay's Center after the 18/19 season, the owner of Barclay's claiming "they won't be profitable" after that season

Wasn't new ownership already looking at the idea of a new stadium? I seem to recall reading it in the BoH forum

Blues canned Hitch today

Blues canned Hitch today

I could be wrong as I don't watch the blues but based on a stat watching point of view, their biggest problem is the goaltending.

I think their biggest problem is they lost all their heart last summer.

"I would like to, at the deadline, go somewhere," Iginla said. "I would like to be in the playoffs. I would hope that there is some opportunity to go and play in the playoffs. Those are the best games, the most fun for sure, and you have a chance to win. So, no, I haven't given up on that chance to win."

Where do you guys think he goes? Is it weird that I get the feeling he might be shipped off to Edmonton, even though it's a completely ridiculous idea?

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

If he goes anywhere, I'm gonna guess LA.

 

[Anglesmith]

I still want him. He would bump Chiasson out of the top 9, and it would be worth it for the tremendous feels alone.

I'd take him in a heartbeat just because he'd be the heart and soul guy this lifeless team needs, but he wants to go to a definite playoff team. And we are anything but that

Well no doubt we'd have to earn it with our play in February.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

I want him on the Flames for the feels, but I also want him to go to a good team so I can see him win it all.

 

[Bounces R Way]

LA would be my prediction as well. He had his best years with Darryl Sutter and he might be able to keep up on that team.

Would also take him back, one because he's my favourite player ever and two because he can still shoot. Barely any of our forwards shoot first.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

I look at Sutter did with Vinny who was on his last legs, I think Sutts could get some more mileage out of him.

 

[FlamerForLife]

I want him on the Flames for the feels, but I also want him to go to a good team so I can see him win it all.

This is exactly how I feel too.

 

[Anglesmith]

I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him go to the Wild, either. Boudreau has been great with Staal, and of course was great with the vets in Anaheim. The way Minnesota's season has gone they should absolutely be buying at the deadline.

 

[Mobiandi]

There's no way he stays at the Avs, but I hope he goes to a team that actually has a chance because his career is on its last legs and I think he retires after this season

 

[Unlimited Chequing]

No, I don't think he'll retire after this season unless he wins a cup and even then I'm not 100% convinced. I don't think his production this season (or lack thereof) is an indication that his tank is on empty. That entire Avs team is pretty terrible.

I think if he's put on the right team with a coach that knows how to use him, he could still put up some goals for another year or two.

LA actually would seem like a good fit for a trade deadline move.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

This is exactly how I feel too.

Well then I guess there's only one thing left to do.

Load up at the deadline and win the whole f'ing thing.

 

[Lunatik]

St. Louis would be a solid fit for Iggy, after losing Backes and Brouwer they could use the jam Iginla plays with.

 

[Dertell]

It's not fair to blame the Avs when he's a big reason why they suck so much.

Staal was a perfect bounce back candidate. Most reclamation projects didn't do so well in Anaheim.

You don't think it has something to do with the atrocious team defense and goaltending?

I'm not sure he looks at St. Louis and sees a winning team there though.

No it's definitely the 39 y/o 4th line wingers fault.
