are you related to Garth?

he is from Toronto

Habs also had the chance to move the #9 pick and didnt bite fwiw
- yen6d1

Yeah, I remember the rumor. Not too many GM are willing to give up a top 10 pick for an established player. NJ did for Schneider, but I can't recall any others.

I'm wondering after all this if he's going to retire..

It's a sad thing to think about but his health is more important

then if kane walks


you have 2 more holes in your top 6 to fill

Byslma always seems to want a physical presence on Eichels wing and I feel that just just not needed. Eichel is good enough in the corners to work the puck himself, what he needs is someone to actually finish the passes he's putting in around the goal. The likes of Foligno always seems surprised when the puck lands at his stick in close. Get some skilled players around 15 and start him as the top pivot next season.

So the pats are getting Sherman I would actually want to see that he hates Tom Brady that might blow up in their face

Well, if that ever did happen, losing Okposo and Kane, we'll have a boatload of cash to go shopping and JT will be tops on my list.

It's an outdated way of thinking, probably because Bylsma was a grinder. He had Nylander on the bench but chose to play Dlo with Eichel in a meaningless game. Well we learned what we already knew, Dlo doesn't get points, and we still don't know if Nylander and Eichel are a good fit together

It hurts... I'm sure the Sabres will hire him for the organization

Very very tough news to hear ...

But I think we're likely going to trade Kane for a defenseman

You're crazy. We don't even know what it is. So he must retire

Then we're going to have the same year
- jcragcrumple

If moves were made....

Kane-Eichel-Okposo
Nash-ROR-Reinhart
Ennis-Grigs/Erod-Haglin(or this type of player)
Dlo-Erod/Grigs-Gio
If a fourth line of Dlo-Grigs-Gio keep you out of the playoffs, much more is wrong with the team, fourth line usually only plays 7-9 mins a game.
I agree that I'd like to see Gionta move on, but he's hardly holding the team back.

And i just posted that he is on his way to recovery. But, being in ICU in a Nuero center is not good no matter what.

- jcragcrumple

Yep. Surely bringing up Nylander was to give him a taste of the NHL and what to expect, give him a taste of what what his potential centreman in Eichel is like to play with and get the kid excited to work his ass off over the summer. And for the fans on the last home game...its maddening stuff.

I remember when Bylsma was coaching Pittsburgh and he put together the Ham sandwich - Crosby - Nacho vendor guy from section 312, line. Man, those results were sub par.

- chilliard77

It's not crazy the team is not releasing statements about players health when he's in ICU you know it's damn serious

Btw i didn't say he must retire at all

Sorry about caring about the guy's health and not thinking about his hockey career

"I'm wondering after all this if he's going to retire."

Suggesting he may retire. Save that until we actually know what's wrong

If moves were made....

Kane-Eichel-Okposo
Nash-ROR-Reinhart
Ennis-Grigs/Erod-Haglin(or this type of player)
Dlo-Erod/Grigs-Gio

I like the top 3, but there aren't any PK guys in that bottom 6. Larsson is probably our best guy in the bottom six right now. Girgs isn't that guy, and he's not the guy 5-on-5, and he's not the guy on the PP. I don't see any value in him. As for Dlo, i just really don't believe you can have a playoff team with a guy that gets 2 assists a year. I'd also rather have foligno than Gio, but i can see an argument for both.

if you move all the trash and free up space

Kovy, Eichel, Nash
Kane, Ror, Okposo
Foligno, Reinhart, Jagr
- homiedclown

You said move out the trash, why is Jagr here ?

Kane, Eichel, Baptiste
Bailey, ROR, Okposo
Foligno, Reinhart, player x
Smith/Carrier, E rod, Gionta


flush the rest down the drain
- homiedclown

Bailey and Baptiste shouldn't be in the top 6 IMO and why put E Rod on the 4th line ?

I'm surprised they said he was in neuro surg. HIPAA is no joke. If Okposo doesn't want info released someone could get into huge trouble.

I don't know what the laws are like in Canada, but pretty much every time you go to a doctor here you have to sign some sort of waiver so they can get info from other doctors, or if you had x-rays somewhere, or blood work...
