I enjoyed the game, but that game would have been special indoors or out. Penguins/Flyers. Simmer’s last game. Epic comeback. Claude gets the winner in OT. Great stuff. I think the “creative” camera work,that usually annoys me in the outdoor games, was kept to a minimum because of the rain. That was a real plus to me.

Some of the stuff that Bill mentioned wouldn't have happened for a normal game.

Ok I was going to say, no one is out of the loop that much.

I thought he was only sent there on the conditioning stint? If he was assigned to the phantoms he would have had to clear waivers? I could also be wrong.
- Ftown19125



Yeah....Im not seeing this anywhere. You are correct...he's on assignment and wasn't supposed to be recalled until the 26th to take advantage of the post deadline roster expansion rules.

If he’s called up I would think somebody on the d is being moved ?
- jmdodgeser4


He was on a conditioning stint for his injury rehab. He wouldn't have been able to be assigned to the AHL this season without clearing waivers, so he was always going to be on the NHL roster this season.

I've seen a few San Jose games lately. My son (who's 7 likes their jersey's) so he like their team. To me Jones seems a bit leaky lately. Agree, disagree?
- hockeylover

Jones is only leaky because the defense is piss poor in front of him. I can't tell you how many times Burns or Karlsson are out of position in covering the net for Jones.

I feel so conflicted today. My head says trade everyone. My heart doesnt want it to happen. But we just need space for our young guys to grow. We need to move some defenseman so both Myers and Morin get a shot. And hopefully we get assets for ppl that wont be here next year.

Head should always win over heart. Emotions make decisions difficult

My guess is Simmonds to Nashville for Tolvanen and a conditional mid rounder depending on how far Nashville goes in the playoffs.

What time is the actual deadline? At this point it's possible he won't be traded.

I agree.

edit: but always ten feet tall is one of my favorite saves the day songs.

- Ftown19125


Agreed. That, along with You Vandal and Shoulder to the Wheel (of course) are my top-3.
