What are the odds of one team having two mid-game trades with just a few years in between?

Update: This still works.

If it ain't broke don't fix it.

 

[CB Joe]

I'm convinced Calvert is half honey badger.

 

[EXTRAS]

Francouz is quite a delight.

If Makar can get 7 points in 8 games while playing just meh, I wonder how he will do when he is playing great?

Confirmation of Colin Wilson's death

 

[Freudian]

Now I'm going to worry that Francouz is going to walk as a UFA after this year. If Sakic re-signs him I'm going to worry we're losing him in the expansion draft.

Then again:

Losing Francouz to expension draft would suck, but finding a back up goalie in the NHL isnt that hard

But that means that we can keep Z

But but but ... i was under the impression that we use Zad to get that top 6 winger we so desperately need

Especially NOW after Wilson died ...

We're going to lose a decent player or asset, and in the bigger picture that is a good thing as it means the team is strong and deep. Losing Francouz would also mean that we get to keep other guys, like Zadorov, Burakovsky, Donskoi, Jost, etc.

If Gru keeps proving he is #1G (I personnaly have no doubt he is) then losing Frankie to the XD is probably the best outcome for the Avs as a decent backup goalie is not too hard to find. Heck we might have one internally by then if Werner and/or Annunen keeps going the way they are now.

Colin Wilson... how you like them apples?

Also, the big story is clearly about Jost and I don't want to take anything away... but JTC was quietly the worlds best wing-man.

I have a feeling that by the end of this season we will be looking at JTC's contract as a huge steal.

Watching the highlights again... outside of the hatty, the 3 other goals scored were absolutely stunning....

Landy was pointing his stick in the EXACT OPPOSITE direction of the net and still deflected that just wide of himself and scored... I mean.. if he INTENDED that to happen... that's... otherworldly.

Kadri with an amazing grind that sets up just a gorgeous snipe... wow... what a well earned goal that was...

Rants.... I'm not sure what to say here... the play speaks for itself... it literally has everything...
