Tippett loves Yandle like a son... no idea why they would trade him when they've got other pieces on D they could move instead.

(and no, not OEL, lol)
- Tomahawk

Yandle is older, bigger salary, than guys like Stone, Gormley, etc

Despite having 2 stud dmen, the Yotes aren't really close to being a contender in the Western Conf. I can see them shaking things up.

Think they'll do that by trading Vermette at the TDL, and Doan + Michalek over the summer.

In the meantime, they're probably more interested in triggering their out-clause so they can move to Seattle.

They have some chips they can trade at the deadline. Is that where their rumored destination is? Seattle? I would like to see a team in Quebec City.

if Dwight King scores short side bearing down the left wing within the first two minutes of this game, I am seeking psychiatric help.
- wilsonecho91

If they replace PEBs with Vinny...then PEBs should take Hamburglers spot at wing and drop him back to 4th line. Dont waste the mad frenchman on the 4th line.
- juiced

Who is the 4th line center in that case? Umburger hasn't played that position regularly in years.

Suspect QC will be expansion, so they can get those fees. If it ever happens, that is. Exchange rate could fundamentally alter the math behind viability.

I agree! That would have been pretty funny actually.

I kind of understand AK-47 though. The league would frown upon anything that seemingly promotes violence.
- TheGreat28

Was not Kostitsyn called AK- 47?

Kopitar out tonight
- PLindbergh31

Good. Carter will fold under the pressure of being the primary scorer. He'll never make it in this league

AK46. Kovalev was AK27. Now they have PK76.

Tie game third period he clangs one off Emery's mask, then has a shot break his foot in overtime.

They're playing w/ 19 guys... w/ the Voynov suspension, they don't have the space to recall anyone.

Wait, I didn't think other teams besides the Flyers could have cap issues.

I would HATE to be a Flyers goalie. Constant scrutiny, blamed for everything, unrealistic expectations. Maybe if Mason was Superman he could have stopped all those wide open cross crease one-timers. HE SUCKS!
- GOA88

Bernie Parent once let in a goal. Trade him!

19 including Kopitar?

Edit: NVM. I get it. So only 11 forwards tonight

Lombardi: "It's one thing for the player to have to pay a penalty. It's another thing for 19 other guys to have to go out there shorthanded."

Calling the Voynov thing "a political football".

Who here has gone to the Carnival? Thoughts? Thinking about making the drive down but would like to hear any input first thanks

I guarantee he pots one tonight

It's fairly expensive (for a good cause) and the lines are pretty long. If you have one thing you really want to do, get there early to do it, and then enjoy just walking around the rest of the time.

So he's basically saying Voynov should be allowed to play?

- PhillySportsGuy

I'll bet you $3 he doesn't.

- PhillySportsGuy

I think he's saying they should get the cap relief while the league suspends him for off-ice reasons.

I guarantee he pots one tonight
- PhillySportsGuy

Of course he will.

Nah, it's better than pretty good. Probably has the best wrister on this team after G and Vinny. He just doesn't get put in a position to use it much.
- Tomahawk

There's nothing special about Schenn's wrist shot. Couturier actually has a better wrist shot.

So he's basically saying Voynov should be allowed to play?
- PhillySportsGuy

Maybe more about the suspension counting against the cap.
