OT: Around the NHL - Summer Edition

[BHD]

Report: Kevin Hayes only signed with Flyers because they overpaid him

We needed to be told this?

I like the Wings snagging Erne. He looks to be carving out a role at the NHL level. Worst case, they have a guy who can chip in some goals while playing on their bottom line (think Ruutu).

Gorgeous. I hope the Sabres turn things around. I love seeing their jerseys on television.

Also because Eichel looks like Lemieux out there and Dahlin is sick as f***.

You mean in the sense that he thinks he owns the team?

Just his size and the way he plays.

I agree with your overall points aside from Schneider who has had serious injuries that have killed his career and Jarry sucks.

Jarry doesn't suck. I'm not sure where you get that idea from. He got 2 games to prove himself after a longer look the year before, the issues he had were to do with his ability to handle an NHL workload, we never got to see it and well..the team was ass for large stretches of the season, glad he stayed in WBS where another idiot was screwing that pooch harder than the one on the big club with his ignorance and lack of taking a step back to see a bigger picture of his problems and his staff.

Jarry is definitely a guy that a team would want and groom into a potential starter. There are many with a similar story to his that have rebounded with a trade. He's stuck behind 2 goalies that have a cemented spot, what the f*** is even the point in keeping a 24yr old "future" goalie that is what, a year younger than our current #1?

NJ is doing interesting things, but their lack of movement in net is worrisome. Either Shero is really banking on who he has in the system and that Cory bounces back, or he's blind to that entire issue altogether with his desperate focus on making sure Hall is happy and wants to re-sign.

It's their M.O.

They never freaking learn, even with a new GM, they just never learn.

Gorgeous. I hope the Sabres turn things around. I love seeing their jerseys on television.

I've never seen a team (outside of their sister expansion team) that actively screws their own jersey design up after getting it right and then screwing it up again.

The gold looks great, but that old school jersey style is all they've ever needed and keep messing with to "modernize" it but don't get that sometimes, old is better and new is trash.


Also...#SABRES50 looks like some weird Espresso they're selling when you see it as a hashtag.

Nah Jarry sucks. And he’s likely gone at the end of training camp regardless.

Letang made top ten in the NHL Network top defensemen list.

I would not have Burns at #1.

People love their offense, hence the Norris voting

Yet somehow behind Josi.

Edmonton fans: everything our team does is a ruin

Also Edmonton fans: how dare you question my team

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Brassard to Edmonton? Lol, he deserves that.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Brassard to Edmonton? Lol, he deserves that.

So he's going to Edmonton to be on the 3rd line there?

The Pens broke that dude so badly.

 

[BHD]

Brassard is a fine player (when he cares, of course), but he isn't saving them.

He ended up signing with the Isles.

 

[Don'tcry4mejanhrdina]

He ended up signing with the Isles.

For 1 year at $1.2 million. Ouch. Before the Pens traded for him he was looking at getting his last big contract this offseason, likely at least 5x5. Now look at him, signing for $1.2 million in late August on a 1 year deal. He better have himself a big year but he's lost a TON of money with his poor play.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

He ended up signing with the Isles.

Damn. That's even less than I figured. And a different team than I figured. Ha.

 

[Turin]

Great to have him in the division

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Watch him somehow go back to destroying the Penguins every time they play each other.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

So Guerin is the Wild GM and Brassard signed a 1yr with the Islanders.

Guerin needs to do us a solid and take JJ.
