Also worth noting that Jake can relive his duties of being the scapegoat. Pigeon is gonna drive some folks insane. #metoo

There just isn’t any room for Simmonds.

Giroux-Couturier-Konecny
JVR-Patrick-Voracek
Farabee-Frost-Lindblom
Allison-O’Brien-Ratcliffe
Rubstov-Vorobyev-NAK

Move him in a package with picks/prospects for a top pair defenseman.

So, can all the people who constantly post about Hexy never doing anything big (you know who you are) pop back in and comment on this deal?

Commented in the other thread.

Very pleased with this, if true.*

This is finally a credible, non-spin needed, move of Hextall's that adds talent to the current NHL roster in a non-draft manner. There's finally an examole he's capable of this type of move, and my faith has been restored. Kudos to him, money and term looks great. JVR fills an obvious need, we wanted a shooter, and we got a shooter.

*If JVR signs somewhere else, back to square 1. (Or did I use zero in the other thread?)

I hope jvr gets #21 again so i can reuse my jersey

Me too! If Laughton doesn’t give up 21 I’ll be a little disappointed lol

He'll probably take #25. It's what he wore in Toronto after Salming got his jersey retired.

If he moves Simmonds, I'm not even hung up anymore on it HAVING to be a RHD cause we all know how though that is gonna be.
I'll take a legit Top 4 LHD who's similarly aged if he's out there to be had for Wayne.

Sign Mike Richards on a PTO

get the Party Posse back together!
what's Ben Eager up to these days?

I’ll always love Richie and I know this is a joke but I wonder what he’s up to these days. Probably slower than molasses at this point.

JvR? Lovely. I like our forwards, though I still miss a surefire 3C (unless Frost is ready which would be awesome), but I also hope the D gets to play a bit more good younglings now that Boxcar is away (fingers crossed).

What about the net though? Ugh
