God I hope not. Is a lockout a foregone conclusion at this point?
- MCGUIZZY

When have we not had one

Anyone see all the ridiculous trade tweets from Leaf fans for Eichel? Worse transom of the ones I see on here.

"Nylander for Eichel, maybe throw in a 2nd to get it done"

"Nylander and Marner for Eichel"

The Leaf fans are only having fun. They are just showing respect for Eichel as we do likewise for Matthews. Both set of fans would love to see Eichel and Matthews play on the same team.

I gathered that.

On pace for 62pts

That would be 24pts over the next 33games
So something like,
10-19-4

Sucks that we had to start talking about a draft pick 2 months into the season...
but that’s where this team is at

Definitely have some good players,
but obviously some major holes to fill as well

There was a good crowd for the Friday and Saturday games

I didn't work the Sunday game thankfully!

I needed a break.

my friends went friday, said it was a good time

I would say odds are better there is a lock out

plus the don fehr factor

While I can absolutely appreciate a lower cost of living, I never understood why Western New Yorkers looked at higher property values in other cities as a bad thing.

Anyone interested in John Carlson in free agency? if so how much would you give him?
- MCGUIZZY

YES

Probably gonna take a 7 x 7 deal
He’s out scoring Erik Karlsson so far this year (38pts to 31)
Only Burns (41pts) & Kilingberg (48pts) are ahead of him

And unlike Shattenkirk,
Carlson can actually play in his own end

Even if we won the lotto, I’d still go after him
Imagine this defense:

Dahlin-Carlson
Scandella-Ristolainen
Guhle-McCabe
Antipin

Trade Bogosian & Beaulieu

I would sign Carlson if he would come here, but he is not outscoring Erik Karlsson on this roster.

Yeah both games were pretty good

Nice to see Jacksonville get rolling

Fair...
but we do have more talent coming
I don’t think he’d be wasted here

Either Dahlin or one of the snipers will help

Carlson will cost a good chunk but he's a good D man, I wouldn't mention Dahlin, long shot to win that pick.

Damn. Yea thats a tough salary/term. But hes not super old and would be a big upgrade. I think he would fit in here nicely.

We're in a chicken and egg scenario: The D doesn't score, so the forwards don't get goals/assists from them either, and the forwards don't score (besides 15, 90 and a couple others) so the D don't get points.

Maybe a difference maker on both ends could blow up the log jam

Everyone seems to be talking like it’s a sure thing

The NHL is so annoying though

Why don’t they start negotiations NOW ?
And get this thing done before we have to miss games
So dumb

I also like Carlson but He will Demand too much and we already have enough bad contracts

Just being hopeful
Right now we have the 2nd best odds to get him

Nope.
Just facts.

Don't get me wrong. He absolutely would improve this team. However, part of the reason he is scoring is because Washington's roster, both up front and on defense is miles ahead of Buffalo's. Erik Karlsson moves the needle. John Carlson not so much.
