Murray jack Johnson and a third for Andrew McDonald and a seventh

Sweet Baby...LOL WUT

Brother, we are almost done with MacDonald. You are literally asking us to extend the MacDonald Experience to a cumulative total of nine -- 9 -- NINE -- seasons

I kinda like you but I don't like anybody that much

Agreed. I think they're going to have to ride Neuvy/Hart until Elliott or Stolie come back.

I'd be interested to see what D men could be available now.

I'm very curious about what the defensemen prices are -- because at some point, you kinda might want to check the temperature on Gudas

I'll keep revisiting my favourite trade: Simmer & Gudas for Kapanen and a 2nd.

The offer was largely tongue in cheek haha. McDonald has two more after this one, no? Or is it down to one.

That was a beauty of a punch.

Doesn't look like they sent him to the quiet room tho which I'm dumbfounded by.

By the way: Feanor's fraudulent argument about Calgary "having bascially the same roster as last year except for Lindholm, Hanifan and James Neal" conveniently left out other free agent signings Derek Ryan, Austin Czarnik and Alan Quine -- on any given night, they are literally playing with FIVE new forwards of the 12 who dress from last year

You do that poop when you're biased

Same. It’s hard to take leagues seriously with all of their neuro precautions when you have s guy who clearly couldn’t even support his own weight deemed fine.

I guess it was okay for Hextalls kid having a job in the organization and Nick Lukko ending up with the Reading Royals...must not draft worthy children of Flyers past players...Like Kasperi and Mattias Sammuelson..that is another angle of the previous GM that probably deserves discussion...

Done -- and I still think something like that could go down. It really does make sense for both sides. They can talk tough but they can't afford Kapanen next season

Then there’s definitely not enough Splenda in a third rounder for sure haha. For some reason I thought you still had two years of fun left.

Could have a two time cup winning goalie bridging you right to hart too

It's annoying because nobody ever said the guy never deserved to have the job for life, that he was above criticism

But you have to work really, really, really hard to make it seem like the guy didn't do anything right -- he'll get another job if he wants one

What's up with Murray, man? Post-concussion syndrome? He looked so bad earlier this season, nothing like the Cup goalie

Eh. Like most things I think the reality of it lies between the middle of two extremes. He was very hot at the height of his postseason runs. That’s clearly not what he is. His glove hand is ghastly and will prevent him from ever being consistently top level. However, he’s clearly been mentally shook all year and I don’t think he’s that bad over the long haul. The pens just don’t have the luxury of spotting him a twenty game sample size to “find himself” like he’s some skanky co ed sleeping around through a semester abroad.

LOL

I have to admit, that glove hand is nasty. It's hard for a layman to tell, but with him, even a casual fan can pick up that something's off with it
