It's the male version of the Oscars. We all need to find better things to do

The days up to the deadline have been much much better then the actual deadline the past couple of years.

This dearmament race is (frank)ing hilarious. We should just offer Connor McDavid to the country with the worst military and solve nuclear warfare. #tankingforpeace

While watching the London game yesterday I wonder if Domi to Toronto would go through considering that Arizona already have Domi and Dvorak and the third guy on that line is Marner.
- manvanfan

Yea, that would be kinda cool if they end up with Marner and get London's entire 1st line.

Same. Surprised Yzerman paid that much and didn't go for a cheaper option in Petry.
- Nucker101

Honestly I'd rather have Gudas going forward than Coburn so the 1st and 3rd is icing on the cake

This year this board is more realistic. No one is expecting any movement.

He must be thrilled that Lums is in 17 th now

To be fair, when I traded it to him, I was beating Left 10-3

I would expect a UFA to be traded, there is no way they are signing all 3

Arizona could maybe trade with Toronto to swap first round picks. Even though they are 3rd and 4th wouldn't make sense lol.

I'd still prefer Coburn, but not by a large margin so I think PHI made out great.

Lol Luongo. Only thing I could think of is that the UFAs will all try to be signed in the off season and trade some of the players with contracts. Some room should be made for Virtanen, Cassels, McCann. Just depends on whether or not JB thinks this team is capable of making a cup run as is.

Yea, I am thinking we will say goodbye to Richie today. I wouldn't mind selling high on Matthias though because Richardson is a very steady guy. Dorsett should be signed regardless

Hanifin's still the consensus 3rd pick though so they might still get Marner if they finish 4th. ARI's NHL roster looks worse than TO's right now so who knows.

Depends on how bad his injury is, there's not many games left so an injured 4th liner who's a pending UFA holds minimal value.

I think you sign Matthias 3 yrs x3.5 . He is big and will get 20 . We don't have the luxury of letting 20 goal scorers walk

I don't think we can reasonably expect any of those three to be in the lineup next year. If anybody is expected to join the team it would be someone from Utica.

Looks like Stamkos and Tavares just jumped out on to the ice in Canuck jerseys.

I think Arizona has a lot of good prospects in the pipeline though. Toronto really doesn't. To me Marner would be taken probably 5th. I'd still put Strome ahead of him.

Happy to have some fresh blood but I sure will miss Richardson and Bonino...

You could say the something about Horvat then though and he made the team.

Because he earned it, not because they set a spot aside for him.
