Source?"I do think the Canucks 2019 first-round pick could get [an NHL ready defence prospect] and there is lots of speculation if it's not in the top 10, Vancouver would consider moving it."
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck.
SOURCE!?Looks like Soc gets his wish and Petey will be back on Friday.
Ahh OK I did wonder if that was the case (another forward injured). Bo looked great in the OT, so I'd guess it's just a knock.I thought the MDZ trade was to free up a spot for Petey, but now it looks like Horvat was hurt last night and Kero was recalled.
Ah, hadn't read yet
Even if they do (and they will), it'll be less pathetic than against Avs so i'm fine with it. The whole team can't we worse

Also... What was your Petey source?

In tangentially related Canucks news, Sens prospect Josh Norris is out for the remainder of the season. Not sure what the injury is. This is bad for an already struggling Michigan State, but good for anyone who really wants Quinn Hughes to sign in March.
I actually... don't want him to sign in March? He'll wreck our draft position and if he plays enough games we have to protect him from Seattle.In tangentially related Canucks news, Sens prospect Josh Norris is out for the remainder of the season.

It's tough to pick out one specific player that the Jets would be willing to part ways with," Mastrogiovanni said. "However, personally I'd say Ehlers, Connor, and Little would be good returns for Philadelphia along with a possible mid-range/high-range draft pick. At this point, I think the Flyers need to add more depth scoring, as well as (add) a near top-tier goalie as a good mentor and tandem partner to Carter Hart, as we could see a lot more of him down the road."
Yeah I made the same inference above. Here's hoping.My source was me jumping to conclusions when I saw "MDZ free roster spot" and "Petey on IR" in the same sentence.
You're not alone. It wouldn't be ideal for Canucks long term roster/cap situation, but they may feel they need to in order to ensure he signs. In fact, they may have already negotiated something like this which is why they were reportedly interesting in signing him as early as January.I actually... don't want him to sign in March?

Reading bullshit trade pieces on other team blogs is always a hoot for a few seconds but then you get annoyed, like reading the comments on a local news story.
"Jets Could Make a Simmonds Trade Work"
Uh, why? I like Simmonds a lot despite his being hot garbage this year, but the last thing the Jets need is a winger (if his name isn't Mark Stone I guess) and they definitely don't need a right shooting one.
Oh Ehlers and a mid/high pick would be enough to pick up a 30 year old winger with 22 points? Good to know.
Is there a worry that he won't sign? By all accounts it seems he wants to play here. The January signing is still baffling to me.Yeah I made the same inference above. Here's hoping.

That's really close. Won't help the cap situation but it would be nice to save an extra slot. I feel like Benning's asset management has been improving so here's to hoping they don't fuck it up.Some good news. If Hughes plays no earlier than March 18, he could only play 10 games at most which would make him exempt from the expansion draft. If he plays at least 11 games, though, they'd have to protect him.
Michigan could be eliminated as early as March 13, so there's some risk.
I don't think there's a genuine worry. But it's the new precedent with good college prospects and the Hughes camp may be offended if he doesn't get the same treatment. Just speculating here.Is there a worry that he won't sign? By all accounts it seems he wants to play here. The January signing is still baffling to me.
Local media will shit bricks of they bring him in one or three games too early. Hopefully they don't fuck up something that should be so easy to do properly. They've definitely been more 'shrewd' lately with their asset management, but I still worry.That's really close. Won't help the cap situation but it would be nice to save an extra slot.

And no playoffs because that would truly ruin things.
I've got a bad feeling about this
Preds really aren't in a good position to make deadline trades, but Poile won't be stopped I guess
Cap dump and a 7th going the other way.
I'm assuming the tickets aren't free? That would be nuts if they are, especially for a rangers game. It's nice they take the time to explain their future plans, in a non-Melnyk kind of wayJust got this email from the Rangers. Don't recall this ever being a thing before.
I RSVP'd, so we'll find out.I'm assuming the tickets aren't free? That would be nuts if they are, especially for a rangers game. It's nice they take the time to explain their future plans, in a non-Melnyk kind of way
Haven't seen too many Blues games. What the hell happened to Tarasenko?Lose more and suck harder, Blues. Trick a contender into giving up their future for Lazysenko.
I'm no hockey expert and have not been attentive, but I think he never adjusted that well getting first-line attention from opponents and his game has not improved/innovated. When the wrister's gone, it's more dire.Haven't seen too many Blues games. What the hell happened to Tarasenko?
Asking price for Jake Muzzin
There's no guarantee the Kings will move Jake Muzzin but they're certainly in listening mode. And the asking price I'm told right now for the talented top-four blueliner is a first-round pick plus a prospect.
It's a high price but it should be. The 29-year-old is a top-notch defenseman and he's signed for another season next year at a reasonable $4-million cap hit.
I think contending teams are hoping that the price lowers closer to Feb. 25. But keep in mind, the Kings don't have the move the guy. They like him, too.
Duchene is probably exactly what the Jets really need tbh. Left shot center to take over the second line? Pending UFA? Damn that would fit in great.
Lebrun:
I have a question for Rob Blake - do you consider Logan Stanley to be a "prospect"? No no don't open up eliteprospects or anything, just look at his height and remember he's a first round pick.

Fuck, I'm so sorry Soc.
Theres a guy here at MSG walking around in a Habs Subban jersey. I assume it's Red_ ?
should have known it was you
You will be.
It's not just that though. It's that you got, in my opinion at least, swindled.Oh I 100% know for a fact that Nino, Coyle, Zucker, Granlund, Brodin, anybody traded fromthe Wild will do great, much better than they would with the Wild. It's how things are.
