You can do that?!

Must be nice...
- Flamin_Irishmin

Yes I can, and not only that, I can actually ban the people that are flagged, weird how that works eh...must come with the avatar.

Surprised at the TBL trade.

So Tampa gets a UFA backup goalie, 7th and mid prospect for Bishop plus they give up the higher pick?

The goalie market is so bunk.

plus, what a slap in teh face to Budaj.
Dont' let the door hit ya on the way out!
LAK aint got no time for feelings.

Are people passionate about hockey there sure. Do those place have the economic structure to support an NHL franchise? Sorry not year round.
- Nuck4U

there not supporting them down south, snowbirds are the main attendance.

It makes me laugh every time someone mentions Halifax as a possible NHL destination. Ridiculous.

I second that motion.

You need to first have an emotion.

He would rather pay 3x the amount on someone else, a few years younger, to do the exact same thing.
- Retinalz

Personally I would rather bring in Boeser at 1.2 mil on ELC and let him play with Horvat instead of AB.

The mentorship did not do us good this year and will do even less next year

TBL also gets a conditional pick.

Man the Oscars really making up for the racist year last year by giving all the awards to black people this year.

That covers Horvats line. I was thinking Burrows as a 4th line.

Gaunce or Labate for Y IMO

Makes it clear why JB hung up that call on Miller

You think the Ducks up the ante? Only way Miller time goes south this season.

Couple of points here Miss Donna:
1.) Who are the posters that get to determine the establishment of what is flag worthy.
2.) A good flagging is when you bring to the attention of the refs of a poster that is trolling in an excessive manner...check the oilers blog for an example.
3.) Flagging a ref is a wasted flagging attempt, you need to sign up to HB Flagging Etiquette 101, I'll see if I can entice Marwood out of retirement to teach the finer points if he ever talks to me again...

If that's the market for Bishop, i ain't holding my breath that a move will be made, nor am do i care.

If it's something like Miller and a 5th for Bernier, 7th and a middling prospect, i can understand why JB would pass.

Good bunch who love hockey for free like the other endevours they receive.

Labate Gaunce Dorsett
- VANTEL

that's what i was thinking last night too.
Although i don't know if Labatts will be anything more than 4th liners of the past like Chaput,, Bolduc, Vey, Cracknell, Dalphe Prust, Duco, Kennis, Etem, Lain, Sestito, etc etc etc etc

wow this Hanzal trade! I would be giving that new pheonix GM an HJ if I was Tanner. Unreal!

That is all he has to be . Turn him into a Ferland (who has 11 goals this year)

But consider the alternative, Miller simply walks for nothing.
It's not as though we need him to maintain our lofty position in the standings.

T.B got a great back-up, one of their better D-prospects who himself is a second rounder, a 7th and a conditional pick for an expensive UFA who they had no intention of re-signing.

That's a pretty decent move all things considered.
If Benning was offered that I'd like to think he'd have taken it especially when we could simply re-sign Miller this off-season if need be.

Labate Gaunce Dorsett
- VANTEL

But what about Burrows?how can the franchise survive without Burrows, Higgins and Hansen?

Labate Gaunce Dorsett
- VANTEL

Rather have Burrows than Gaunce there. I think Gaunce is an AHL depth player and no more.

there not supporting them down south, snowbirds are the main attendance.
- Bettmanhatesus

In what market

It what about Burrows?how can the franchise survive without Burrows, Higgins and Hansen?
- CanuckDon

i know right.
Excellent return.
- dbot

Hopefully sets the market a bit for us with Hansen, not as good as Hanzal but still.

Looks like an all-in by Minny more than a conspiracy to me
