sorry...you're right...fixed

THAT'S how you end a Game of Thrones episode!!!!

Tip of my lid, Pach.

The dman QB is not just for the PP we need a Soup-type for 5v5, also.

got no prob with that...just don't want to see them reach for a pp qb via draft, trade or free agency...I've never had a problem with jack at the point, and seeing Matthews there today furthers my thoughts on that

Pretty sure they will, it may not be through the draft but a good chance it will come FA or a trade.

Yandle and one other but i'm not saying his name now because I doubt it happens.

I know there are a lot of yandle fans, and the dude has offensive acumen, but from what I've been seeing lately, he's a defensive liability...and i'm not sure if the tradeoff is worth it right now

If we had the chance, I would still give up the 8th pick for Drouin. I know some don't agree with that and that's ok. I just think Murray would like another young promising winger. Just my opinion.

Can we afford Yandle? Or is he one of those "if Stamkos doesn't sign" guys?

am pretty sure you'd need to add more at this point...he sure looks good

Teams that can move a LHD or RHD want a lot, so maybe FA is the way to go for now.

And we could do that, we have the assets to do it, it's good to have that kind of options.

I'm sure he wants or will get 6-7 mill a year, someone will pay that or close to it. The talk is there about Yandle but who knows what will happen.

Long live the note!!!!
