I know we don't need an election yet. I think if JT forces one he'll lose.

Trading Boeser to keep Toffoli would be incredibly stupid. However, this is a Sekeres/TSN roomer so I doubt it has any validity.
I think we need to start a pool to pick what date the league has to cancel the tournament thingy.

You talk about it like it wouldn't just be standard playoffs after the play-in

What’s happening to the MLS is what I think is inevitably going to happen to the NHL. I hope it doesn’t, but I think it will.

I agree 100%.

The timing of this rumor is poorly as well.

If they could get rid of some deadweight the optimal thing to do is keep both...easier said than done though. At least for Jim Benning.

Feck politics in here. Take it to PM or the twitterverse idc. That garbage isn’t hockey.
- Nighthawk

Wait a minute here, didn’t you just nominate RC as PM, and I seconded your nomination.

Feck the Liberals
Feck the NDP
Feck the Greens
And most of all Feck the Conservatives, well the pretend Conservative party.

All hail RC and the no bullish!t party

I propose Moderate Minions.

But there's a massive new document outlining what will happen over the next few weeks and also the next few years that has just been released. There's so much real stuff to talk about!

How 'bout this tweet from Brennan Klak of TSN1260 in Edmonton. Based on that, sounds like the 2020 first-rounder now belongs to New Jersey.

'According to the NHL, if you are playing in a qualifying series, you have officially "made the postseason", which will in turn effect a few trades.'

Wait what? That'd screw over the Canucks if they lost the play in round

Never mind, he gave an update:

"From what I understand, this is to be interpreted for statistics only and NOT for trade conditions.

#Canucks
fans can stand down."

Put yourself in Bettman shoes......see that wasn’t so hard was it....he doesn’t give a poop about the Canucks franchise.

So the 2020 first rounder is officially gonzo...pressure is on to beat Minnesota.

So there’s still a chance, Jim Carrey in dumb and dumber came to mind

To who?
I'm no Trudeau fan but I doubt Mackay nor O'Toole can beat him.
I don't think I've ever voted 'for' someone, it's always 'against' someone/everyone else.

Yup.

And that’s why the archaic FPTF system sucks.

I think Mackay can. He's old school PC, pre-merger.

Also, I said if JT forces it. We really don't need an election right now, and I think the NDP are broke so they're unlikely to force one. Govern within your minority. Why would anyone want to go to the polls anytime soon?

So if VAN loses to MIN we don't get a first? Or a chance at 1OA?

I disagree, go find another gang to join.

Also, Mackay is from Halifax. The liberals took 26 seats in the east coast provinces this past election while the cons took 4. I think it would be closer to a split, maybe worse for the liberals.
