Play nice. So far Chuckie hasn't done anything to think he's as scary as the movie Chuckie or the NFL Chuckie.

Sanheim and Hamilton on the same blueline?

 

[freakydallas13]

I still can't believe the Flames bailed on Hamilton so quickly. Wtf was that about.

Most people laughed at the Hurricanes for losing that trade big time, especially after Lindholm's first season. And getting future stud Noah Hanifin?!

I know it didn't work out, but imagine Fox and Hamilton on the same team. Just goes to show that the Hurricanes targeted the right guys. Hamilton alone is worth more than Calgary's package.

Laughton has never impacted a game as thoroughly as Ghost has tonight.

But GMs are infallible gods so they must know best and they certainly never ever make a mistake.

So what was that quote that AV said about making the playoffs and there is no way they aren't or something like that?

Only negative thing I remember from Hamilton's time in Boston was the report saying he demanded the Bruins trade for his brother Freddie. Never looked much into it but looks like it was just a hit piece lol

Dougie Hamilton fled Bruins after they didn’t acquire brother: Report

Now a good time for this?

ESPN+ - Surveys were conducted over the past two months. Respondents were asked to rank their top 10 players at center, winger, defenseman and goaltender, based on a predetermined list of the top 20-30 players at each position. Players who were ranked in the top 10 on each ballot were given a numerical score -- No. 1 earned 10 points, No. 2 earned 9 points and so on.
There were 10 NHL players surveyed -- seven skaters, three goaltenders. There were 10 people on the hockey operations side surveyed, from coaches to general managers to player personnel executives.

Ranking the NHL's top defensemen: Why Victor Hedman is so far ahead of his peers

Ranking the NHL's top defensemen for 2021

10. Ivan Provorov, Philadelphia Flyers
29 points | Age: 24
The final spot in the top 10 goes to the Flyers' 24-year-old defenseman. Provorov is in his fifth NHL season. He's playing as much as he ever has (25:07 time on ice per game), although his offense and puck possession are a tick down from last season. He hasn't gotten into the Norris conversation yet, but Provorov was ranked in the top 10 on seven ballots in the survey. One NHL general manager had him second overall, his highest ranking. That alone was the difference between Provorov getting the final spot by a slim margin over Brent Burns (27 points). "I'm becoming a bigger and bigger fan of Provorov," said one NHL coach. Apparently he's not alone.

Vasilevskiy, then who? NHL execs rank the top goalies

Ranking the NHL's top goaltenders for 2021

7. Carter Hart, Philadelphia Flyers
59 points | Age: 22
No one is going to say that Hart is having a good season -- especially the Flyers. "Carter is a young guy. He had some success last year. This year, he hasn't played at the same level, there's no question," said Flyers GM Chuck Fletcher. Hart's .871 save percentage and 3.92 goals-against average through 23 games aren't encouraging -- he also has a league-worst minus-18.9 goals saved above average -- but the majority of our voters still believe he has the goods. Five voters had him ranked in their top five, including one veteran goaltender. That was a little too rich for one coach, who had him ninth. "Hart hasn't earned it quite yet," he said. Based on this season, that's probably accurate.

someone should tweet that to the Flyers, and ask if AV will resign...

I have to know which GM has Provorov as the second best defenseman in the league. I have some land to sell.

That is completely out of this world.

I’ll give you a hint.

He looks like a 12 year old whose Mom cuts his hair.

Or a defenseman to trade

I know you’re not talking about Chuck. That haircut is the best move he’s made since he’s been here.

Oh, you’re absolutely right. I forgot he upgraded the haircut with that Comcast money.

I was thinking about 2018 Chuck.

Nothing in this post is true.

 

[Strawberry Fields]

This lends credence to my belief that you could get a massive haul for Provorov. I'll reiterate again that I wouldn't do it just for the hell of it, and the Flyers wouldn't do it period so it's a moot belief.

He sure thinks he is.

 

[Prongo]

Can’t wait until they trade Gus for a 6th rounder and we have something new to talk about for 45 minutes.

 

[deadhead]

I'd like to see a few players traded for picks, get a haul together for the summer to put a nice package together without having to include too many prospects and some ammo for moving around in this draft. The 1st rd pick should be off limits unless someone offers "a player you can't refuse" because it'll probably be in the #12-15 range, and that's usually a player who can start within 3 years (Farabee, York).

Laughton, Raffl, Gus, Hagg should be on the block.

 

[Striiker]

You're a GM?

He sure thinks he is.

You’re both uninvited from my birthday party.

It's so sad you think anyone is going to come to your birthday party.
