Michael Pachla: 2018 NHL Mock Draft Picks 21-25(Basically 1-1)

Could we land Saad for Jake ?

So, not sure how much of this is newsworthy or if anyone else has heard similar. But I talked to the only 2nd hand source I have.

-Botterill tried very hard to trade ROR at the deadline, and will continue to do so. He also tried to trade Ristolainen.
-A lot of the locker room dissension starts with ROR, almost like he was trying to form a mutiny vs Eichel.
-Eichel and ROR definitely don't get along. It's a very strained relationship.
-Pominville is also a problem, which really surprised me. Not that he's negative per say, it's just that his leadership is non existent and he doesn't put forth the effort nearly enough to be a leadership example
-Beaulieu currently has a huge drug problem

This locker room is poisoned, and the purge started with Kane. And will continue.

This is where the Sabres need to be:

Dawkins - We're becoming a closer knit family on offense. We're all becoming one, and we know more than just everyone's football life. We're going to play harder for each other. #Bills

Hawks like Saad. Jake isn't enough. He doesn't bring enough for what he's paid, anyways.

Bold prediction:

Ott trades Karlsson, pick #35 (or maybe 22) for pick #3

Hoffman for whatever they can.

Rebuild around Stone. Ryan stays to get to the cap floor

I'm kind of intrigued what it would take I like Saad but last year he looked lost

On the bright side at least we're not Chicago fans I bet you that trade they talk about everyday lol

Thanks for the insight, nothing too surprising except pommer and blow-u

Montreal is putting 18 million on their first pairing as a rebuilding club? How fun!

is anyone really surprised to hear that about pommer?

I feel like they're sort of still in win-now mode, unless Price is leaving.

Sign Stastny

Probably move Galchenyuk

If Price isn't blowing the league away, that team sucks. They always have.

I'm sorry but every time I read this crap... It just sounds so juvenile and childish. It just sounds like the junk that some guy on HockeyBuzz made up to try to armchair GM somebody off a team. I mean... these are professional athletes. C'mon. Gimme a break with these 13 year old d1ck measuring contests and drug problems crap. This isn't the 80s.

is anyone really surprised to hear that about pommer?
- Michael Pachla

I personally believed he was a better locker room leader. But apparently, on and off the ice, it seems like he's just.. mailed it in.

It means that this is the stuff that my wife buys from some tabloid at the grocery store checkout... It means it's some "Nikki Minaj is beefing with Kim Kardashian over a Twitter post" type crap. It just sounds so stupid and made up. I mean c'mon.


"Just watch Eichel's motions when he celebrates a goal with ROR... he doesn't mean it" (My favorite dum comment I've read lately)

I mean... are you fnnnnnn kidding me with this?? Good grief. My best friend Tanya says that she heard....

Did all drugs disappear in the 90s?

Have you never had a disagreement with someone at worK?

You sound like a blast to be around.

I've spoken 1st hand with a scout that's employed by the team. But yeah. Tabloid poop I guess. Sit the (frank) down.

Surprising GMJB would try to trade Risto before knowing that we won Dahlin.

So just making up garbage rumors and going along with it is fun to be around?

I've worked in professional team weight rooms... I was a college athlete..

You don't act like a youtube entitled "celebrity".


I walked into weight rooms where if people were talking during a workout people told them to shut up and get their work done. They turned off the music to hear instruction. You don't wear ear buds because you are dedicated to your task.

God... Drives me nuts the crap that people THINKS goes on. You don't make it to the league by being an idiot. I'm sorry.. you don't.

This is just so old.

The Beaulieu thing goes all the way back to Ottawa. As far as rumors go, it's an old one, and it's persisted

Edit: MTL.

Started with Kane, where I believe they're trying to change the culture of the team. The losing attitude, the not giving it all, all the time, the locker room dissension, the widely reported lack of coachability.. unfortunately, Ristolainen APPEARS to fit into that category.

I for one don't want to trade him. But I don't run the team.
