Carol Schram: Alex Burrows gets a crack at the Cup in his 1st NHL season behind the bench Assistant coach Alex Burrows, winger Tyler Toffoli and general manager Marc Bergevin are all one-time Vancouver Canucks who are looking to hoist the Stanley Cup this year with the Montreal Canadiens.

thanks Carol

Thanks Carol!


Go Tampa!

Thanks Carol,

Marc Bergevin probably saved his job by signing Tyler Toffoli.

Any thoughts on converting Podz to center?

Apparently a lot of smoke that their ownership is basically in a championship or bust mentality. Good news for Buffalo

If I’m Buffalo, I want Hague and Krebs involved

If true oughta be interesting on who is packaged. Idk what VGK could offer that doesn’t start with Theodore.

Tuch would be another piece.

Who would be willing to take on the final year of Fleurie's contract? Edmonton, Pittsburgh, Philadelphia, Colorado?

Thanks Carol

Go Habs Go.

Probably a few of those. The first 3 desperately could’ve used him this year

That's what I was thinking. Who has cup aspirations that also got let down by goaltending. Huge risk with Fleurie, and a significant cap hit, but it's only one year, and you could land yourself a prospect or a nice draft pick for taking it on.

Maybe part of the deal . Buff need a goalie. Reilly Smith , MAF a couple of draft picks

I think NH is onto something with Tuch. Buffalo probably wants high picks, or former high picks, and a player or two for the next few years.

The shark move was to grab him last year. Wouldn’t be surprised if Vegas manages to actually squeeze out an asset from someone after the season Fleury just had. UFA goalie market isn’t exactly deep once you get past the first couple of guys. Trade market seems more intriguing with Fleury and potentially the likes of Kuemper or Gibson available for trade.

Which is why Holtby can be dealt. Krak could take a B prospect to e-draft pick. It's not like they'll prefer the other Canuck choices.

Glass and Hague. Likely patches to make the money work. I wonder if one of the goalies too.

Would love Tuch here, would be a great fit next to Bo

I don't think Vegas will be shopping Tuch on his own.
