"Only Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin are considered "untouchable" when it comes to a potential Penguins trade, a team source told The Athletic's Rob Rossi.

However, the source said Pittsburgh is very unlikely to part with forward Jake Guentzel and goaltender Matt Murray, too, and that signing the netminder to a contract extension is "the No. 1 thing to get done" in the offseason."

Damn Phil Kessel was almost a phoenix coyote .... There’s hope for us

From what I can gather, we need one of the teams with a worse regular season record than St. Louis to go to the conference finals, and St. Louis to get bounced this round or next. As long as the blues don’t go to the conference finals and one of Columbus, Vegas, Dallas, or Colorado does then the St. Louis pick would be 19 and we get it. Kind of a tall ask really.

I think Vegas can make it easily.

Edit: And you don't think Columbus can beat the Leafs/Bruins???

In the past I never wanted to trade risto, he’s my favorite Sabre. But, I think we might have to

Sure they can, go Columbus! St. Louis can also make it to the conf finals and it’s all moot.

I just always thought it was determined round by round, never cared to look before.

I mean, I hear what you're saying, but Brian Dumoulin.



He's anti-Risto. Exactly the guy we need.

Out with the Ristolainen in with the Ruotsalainen

The simplest place to see it updated almost live is tankathon.com.

If you want it from an official source, it wouldn't be hard to find.

You would think so, but I have searched Google and it isn't explained definitively how it works.
The most definitive is actually incorrect, since it states that the positions are determined by Round ..round 1 losers are ahead of round 2. Etc.

That's cool. My wife has been binging all of the Hell's Kitchen seasons. Ramsey's daughter says he's "not scary" at home.

He definitely has moxy, and jam.

Good guy, we set up the Landscape in the front where it says Hells Kitchen and where the fire is.

He can cook, but that's close enough.

He doesn't sound less qualified than the last guy.


I cook a lot of his recipes, they're quite good. Said the obvious.

Thank you Hank.
I never scrolled down that far.

You are right, Sabres need some help from one of those teams...Vegas could be one, maybe Columbus as well
At least they have two solid opportunities.
Avs doing ok as well but that us a taller one.
