You're saying the same thing -- it's just that the egg decides the criteria for "greatest". Probably the sperm with the nicest car.

Staal and Skinner say nice things about each other: Staal says reuniting with Sabres GM helps with 'shock' of trade from Wild
Navin R Slavin
Fifth line center
"Eric may be old as petrified dogshit, but he's still the second best center we've got," said Skinner
"Jeff was always fun to play with in the offensive zone, although I couldn't really say much about his play in the D zone because I can't remember ever seeing him there, like literally never" said Staal
"I still can't believe I'm an NHL GM" said Adams

Like Staal's one to talk about lackluster defensive efforts...

This is great. In my haste to like this post, I may have accidentally reported it.

Imagine thinking Esa Lindell is the 3rd best defenseman in the NHL.
Imagine being Kevin McGran.

Holy shit I just noticed he finished with as many voting points as Heiskanen and Seth Jones (who should have had far more votes than he did). Just... What the hell?

Voting for Jared Spurgeon isn’t great either (though he is underrated and really good).
Whoever voted for Chara should be shot out of a cannon though. I can buy him as a still viable NHL defenseman, but c’mon man. Might as well vote him for the Lady Byng while you’re at it.
Edit: Larry Brooks voted for Chara, so the cannon thing was dead on.

Wonder if the Canes are looking at something like this.

From what I think I read elsewhere, they have some sort of ownership stake in that team, so that probably helps.

Yeah, but we have Harri Aho on the speed dial, don't we?

As long as they're willing to pay the Canes players their NHL salaries for him, Dundon would probably be willing to agree

Does he get a vote? If so, that would explain it.
Kristen Anderson of the Calgary Sun is the culprit on that one. Maybe she lost her vote to Jack in a card game or something because she also had Pasternak at 1 for the Hart and Bergeron at 1 for the Selke.

Pens make an odd trade to move Hornqvist for Matheson. I don't think Hornqvist was super valuable either, and pretty risky, but I wouldn't want to touch that Matheson contract.

That’s a horrific trade for Pittsburgh. Matheson isn’t very good at all and makes almost $5mil AAV for another 6 years. Seems like we could have done Hornqvist for Gardiner straight up by the sounds of it but who knows what JR is up to. Probably made one call and took the first deal on the table.

Sounds like the deal hasn’t gone through yet. Maybe Hornqvists ntc?

Considering Friedman is calling it a glitch, I wouldn't think it'd be the NTC. Could be, that would just be a weird thing to not have sorted out and call a glitch. Maybe this is like that Toronto trade once upon a time where there is another asset, and the sides got mixed up on who was giving it, haha. Or something with retention?
Was hoping JR would bite on Gardiner instead. Although in-division trades are difficult to pull off.

I don't know about you, but I'm enjoying watching JR turn the Pens from a promising team set up to transition from the Crosby years to contention for the next 10 to an absolute clusterf*** of mediocre players on horrendous contracts.
