go to 33:25 minute mark to hear about ottawa scout talking about dahlen.

gotta take it with a grain of salt considering it's the scout of the team that drafted him but it's nice to have this warm fuzzy feeling before we label him a bust.

If he could someday become a Carl Hagelin type player this would be an epic trade

so Burrows nets essentially a 2nd rounder (2016)... and some of the people on here thought i was over pricing Nux players....



i expect a full mea culpa from all the haters over the past two years who ridiculed anyone who proposed Burrows would net more than the bag of pucks or similar return they were talking about instead of something like what we saw here today.

Some thought i overvalued assets also 😜
All i wanted was not making a trade to make a trade to appease fans.
I still think JB is methodical & no pushover on making deals.
I like his style & how he goes about it.

If he's half the player his Dad was I'd be ecstatic.

Comets move west?
- Marwood

There were rumors of AHL teams relocating to Salt lake, Reno and somewhere else in the west earlier.... this was in relation to the Vegas team but I believe there were 3 different groups interested.

Will a move west for the comets mean that JV can drink in his familiar haunts.

Your NHL National Enquirer subscription is not renewed?

Can't help but wonder if trader Jim not letting everything go cheap last year let the other GM's know he wont sell for nothing.

Trev said earlier there is a good possibility

If they move to Salt Lake JV will quit

Reno would be good (maybe not for JV , but for fans)

1000 games and a 0.66 points/game is pretty good pedigree

wont happen, I'm sure the Avs will want us to pick up the costs of all the sticks he breaks...
- Greendog

So if I posted this morning that Burrows would get us a good 2nd round prospect that has comparables to Carl Hagelin, would you have believed?

Sounds like Dahlen is cool with the trade. Sens fans didn't want to see him go

Memories I remember making my own black russian river in a parking lot, 1981 those were the years.

Most likely.

Might have something to do with a sellers market too......hell even the leafs bought

I think that was obvious 👍
Flies in the faces of all the JB dumpers.

I was drunk in the Sands when I was about 25 playing blackjack, had 20 showing, said hit me, got an ace. Dealer ended with 20. Got kicked out for counting cards. total fluke

JB says he wants to sign Dahlen in the summer, play him in the AHL

committing to proper development and tempering expectations a bit

JB says more calls to be made today, work is not done yet.
