Good to hear from you.

Best of luck in Nashville. It's a beautiful place I have on my short list of places to move to from this bloodsucking State.

The high in Vegas today is 114 degrees, 115 tomorrow. Yikes. Stay cool George McPhee.

How could vegas ever play in a cup final?

edit: clearing up: the ice would melt so much

I haven't gone outside yet today. It will still be 110 when the sun sets.

Edit: I just read today was the hottest day on record in Vegas ever.

It was so hot in Phoenix today that commercial airlines were cancelling flights. Can't fly when it's more than 118 degrees. The high in Phoenix today was 120.

OK to be honest most of my NY Area sources were from Torts Admin and ex players. The day I broke the Torts getting fired two days before WFAN and documented on my twitter I was visiting Mike Sullivan and some other coaches to work some details about a interview out.. When the Sather /Torts fight took place ten feet away from me.. Sully Hags Dubi and a few others were my locker room friends.. A few other guys who were lets say the tough guys were my friends on a personal level and i got a lot thru them.. The Devils Kovy trade i was sitting with some former NHL scout who were goons and i read their team notes and broke that trade player for player lol.. But HF doesn;t want me posting as a source anymore so i try not to on here much.. The Rangers get Jimmy V was given to me buy a Player i did a signing with thats not related to a Former Freebird with the same last name..
I have sources left in NY but i live in Nash now and been spending a lot of time trying to work on my upcoming podcasts about NHL in the 70-2000 eara..
PM me anytime for my FB or Twitter info

Great to hear from you man. Glad you're doing well. Miss your info

If Minnesota pays the price to protect Dumba and Scandell, is Minnesota still in on Stepan? That would be very nice to start talking about them again with Dumba plus one of their prospects

I didn't know you were out here in Phoenix as well. Looks like there is a few of us then.

Someone made a good point on twitter but will Vegas be immediately in a beter spot than Arizona? Will they finish ahead of them in the standings?

might be better in the standings but arizona will have better system of prospects.
Vegas might have a better system of prospects than us in about 2 years

Oh. I'm not. I just saw the headline this morning, and a member of my team at work telecommutes from AZ, so he was on top of it, too

If it was 120 degress where I lived, I would move.

They are going to have tons of picks sure but they are likely passing in solid players . No Vatanen , Dumba etc .

Lets as who they ice the first game

IF you are asking for sake of knowing i live full time in Nashville now and pretty much respected here and spend a lot of time with their TV staff and with various former players here.. If your being sarcastic then i won't engage any further with u...

I want to visit Nashville bad. All I hear is how amazing it is.

That's absolutely insane

 

[Dagoon44]

Hey guys thanks for the kind words, ?I am here watching my nephew the new QB at UT live his dreams.. If anyone wants to visit PM i got hotel hook ups. and the arena is best in NHL

 

[howztheglass]

Dagoon great to see you post again. Haters will hate but I also told you some of us love what you have to say.

Peace brother.

TSN reporting that McPhee said he went heavy on centers and defense.

So long Oscar...

Not that it was unexpected.

 

[Dagoon44]

Spoke to two NHL personalities today and they said 4-6 goalies will be taken 3 kept in system and most likely 2 traded so who knows. but centers have the most trade value so it make sense.

The South is pretty great. Recently made the move to Raleigh, NC myself. I'm trying to get down to Nashville in October/November-ish.

Ya kinda get used to it; errr, as a young guy at least. I guess it would kinda suck if I was a bit older, middle-aged area.

I prefer it over 90 and humid, or any winter that goes into the 20's or lower haha
