No idea why Montreal would want to trade this guy. He's one of their very few scoring threats.

That's a guy every team would like to have... I'd be disappointed if Shero didn't get involved in talks with them if.. if... IF this is true.

 

[DoktorZaius]

If it's true, I'm 100% sure our All-American Duo, Shero and Bylsma are in love with this guy. At the very least, they'll be working with him at Sochi in a little bit here.

 

[66-30-33]

Once again...Flyers ALWAYS in talks with every single player known to man.

 

[BrunoPuntzJones]

I would be pissed if he goes to Philadelphia. I don't want to hate him.

 

[Big McLargehuge]

Montreal won't trade Max Pac, and if they do they won't within the conference. That's way too friendly of a contract to even consider dealing unless he's demanding a trade.

The reasoning from these rumors seems to come from the idea that Therrien doesn't like Pacioretty. Hard to understand why a coach would dislike one his few goal scorers. Then again, Therrien has a short shelf-life.

 

[Waffle Fries]

I would love Pacioretty here. I think he'd be perfect. I find it really hard to believe that Montreal is shopping him though.

 

[Dying Alive]

The Flyers "take serious runs" at acquiring every half decent player in the league. Holmgren gonna Holmgren.

I mean, they absolutely shouldn't unless someone comes and offers an even better player, but plenty of teams trade guys they absolutely shouldn't for bad reasons.

 

[66-30-33]

Luongo with the ol "gotta take a dump" injury. Hope it's not a serious injury though.

Its funny that the islanders are interested in him, its like Snow has no idea what his team's main problem is.

 

[Shady Machine]

I wouldn't read too much into a rumor from Larry Brooks.

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

I'd ****ing love Pacioretty on this team.

 

[eXile59]

Gaborik first night back from injury, breaks collarbone out 2 months. It's almost funny at this point.

 

[IcedCapp]

I'd trade half of this board, Pascal Dupuis, AND Brooks Orpik for MaxPac

 

[Crafton]

I'd trade half of this board, Pascal Dupuis, AND Brooks Orpik for MaxPac

too much risk. you might trade the wrong half. then imagine how unreadable this place would be.

 

[IcedCapp]

too much risk. you might trade the wrong half. then imagine how unreadable this place would be.

oh, trust me, I'd get the right half

 

[BrunoPuntzJones]

oh, trust me, I'd get the right half

Yeah, I think you'll enjoy the Montreal board. HEY.

 

[IcedCapp]

Yeah, I think you'll enjoy the Montreal board. HEY.

I can't trade myself, BUT NOW THAT I KNOW YOUR FEELINGS ON THE SUBJECT, DON'T WORRY

 

[td_ice]

If Martin Jones is still undefeated, with continued ridiculous stats when Quick is ready to return, what happens? Oh Quick will get playing time, but I gotta think that they ride out Jones on his hot streak.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Pens should trade for him. He'd fit right in with this team's injury woes.

 

[Waffle Fries]

This was on the main boards and cracked me up.




Nichushkin also had another goal tonight. After a slow start with 2 points in his first 12 games, since scoring his first goal, he's had 17 points in his last 23 games. He has now had 11 points in his last 11 games as well.

Right now he's tied for fourth in rookie scoring (19 points) and is only two points behind second. Hertl is in first with 25 points, but his injury means that he'll inevitably be passed.

I also noticed that he's tied with teammate (and this boards most recent obsession) Chiasson in points. Somehow, Chiasson is a -10 while Nichushkin is a +13. I just found that really bizarre.


Also, I find it amazing that Chris Kreider is still considered a rookie
