If we acquire Erik Karlsson it will be the biggest moment for this franchise since drafting McDavid.

You'll see him completely change the back end.

I will say I was awfully impressed with Bouchard last game. It's funny, as soon as we start talking about how brutal our D are at making moves at the blueline and looking at Karlsson compilations, it's as though Bouchard was watching the same and started trying to do that too. He made some amazing moves to juke people out at the blueline.

I may suck at poker but I think I could beat Woody. Zero poker face.:laugh:

Yeah, I’m a horrible liar / poker face and have the same sort of smile that forces it’s way through when in a similar situation. Some are saying “that’s just Jay smiling” but it looks different.

In all seriousness, non verbal communication is the vast majority of what you’re conveying.

Karlsson needs to pull a Ryan Kesler and say he wants out. But only wants to be traded to Edmonton.

That would do his new team a solid as SJ can’t hose us in any deal

I see I missed about 30-40 pages today. Coles notes anyone?
It basically started when it was reported JP was not on the ice for practice.

Then media guys said he wasn't sick and Yamo is supposed to be activated for tomorrow.

So it basically snowballed from there. Then another guy said there's nothing imminent but could see Desharnais and Holloway sent down as cap casualties. No way VD is going down after the way he's played so something is up.

Jay unleashed his "I know something you f***ers don't" face.

I think Woodcroft just enjoys having the most punchable face in the league.
I’m sure Tortorella would like to have a go. Woody with how he schmoozes the media and people in general, and Torts’ no bullshit approach to life are just so polar opposite.

Let’s not forget that Parayko and Ekholm and possibly others are also being made available for offers. Hopefully we have a good read on market value for all the decent D men who could be on the block And make the shrewdest decision.

My god let's just get Bob Gainey if that's how it works. Have you heard of the concept of time?
The big rumor of the day is Erik Karlsson, who is 32. Or does this concept only account for when we're talking about players who don't fit your own specific criteria?
