I think a lot of people look at that list and say 'what are they doing TODAY'

I made the list to reflect on how I think their careers will play out.

Dont ask for the link unless you have 20 minutes to register and activate a password protected gossip column for rumours from "the Hockey God."

EDIT: here's the best part, the registration requires you to certify that you are older than 13 years old because "this site uses bad language."

This trade doesn't fit Stripes understanding though - no goalie.

Well Lack and Talbot have been borderline a TIRE FIRE this year and even what was given up for them should be a COMPLETE over trade and they got BURNED BADLY!!!!

THey both are like 3.00 GAA and .880 S% if I remember right

- JVince11

The canes goalie coach tried to change Lacks game and it really hurt him. Now from what ive read they are letting him play how he was taught in vancouver and his numbers have completely changed and is playing pretty good right now. Its too bad the sabres didnt grab him for a 2nd or 3rd I think he will be better than Lehner.

Fist bump. Might have to duplicate that tonight. And watch Eichel kick Boston in the groin.

Whatever happened to Elliott? I know for a while he was your most promising d prospect

Pysyk's skating isn't just "good." Neither is his outlet pass. He's not a flashy guy, but that doesn't mean he's just "good" either.
- HonkFortheGoose


he is a 2nd pairing guy at best though right? Is that not the agreement basically?

McCabe is a 2nd pairing guy as well though at best?

Maybe Philly is part of a different trade entirely. Other site mentioned "Arizona is up to something"

Lack doesn't fit the timeline very well here though. He's older than Lehner by quite a few years. I'm fairly certain that was a big reason why Lehner was the target over Talbot and Lack.

if I remember right a big thing about why TM liked Lehner was that he at 2.25M for this year and next then becomes a RFA.

Lack was a RFA then signed a 3 year extention at 2.75M for 3 years then UFA.

Control was a big factor if I remember right.

I've been saying for months that I want to see him with Risto to see how they do together, so I'm probably not the right person to ask.

He's smart, he doesn't chase the puck, has a great outlet pass, and has an effortless stride that will allow him to play big minutes.

Like I said, not flashy in any way, but he's got a ton of tools to work with. I think he could be a #2, just depends on if he's given the opportunity.

yes... and what I wrote below about control.

Lack just turned 28 this month and Lehner turns 25 in July.

Off to go see Grandma. She turns 100 next month.

Then I'm buying some brown liquor and an Orange, and heading home.

I'm planning to self-medicate this evening, and by the end of the night I hope my dementia is just as strong as Grandma's.

Bizarre change. So, Nashville trades Bartley to Ariz for Elliott then Bartley and Scott moved to Mtl for Tinordi and a minor leaguer.
