They should be adding . Not for a playoff push but also to take steps for the next few years.

I agree we are not quite there yet, just speculating what the heck their thinking. Nothing big will happen they’ve worked to hard to get to this point.

I actually love these things. Drives the likeability meter way up for me, I should watch them more often. They're such robots in media (and I don't blame them for that) but these are a reminder that they're just like me and the fellas at beer league on the ice. Joking around and self deprecating quips.

I thought millsy was gonna steal the spotlight there in the middle and add to the 'drama', but then they focused back more on Bo haha.

I try to repost them in here whenever they get posted, figured theres always someone who would be interested.

So you think Brock is taking a pay cut do you? Do you understand what leverage means?
- CanuckDon

You are so terrified of what Boeser will end up getting it's hilarious. You can relax, JB isn't here, he can't hurt you anymore.

I still think they need to add more scoring even though they are putting up great numbers. I like to imagine a guy like Fiala Nichushkin or someone even Kane will be added along with Zacha .

Remove Chaisson and I am also pretty well there with moving Dikie but maybe next year he has a better year.

Where did Motte to TB rumor originate? I have seen it all over so far but can't find the source?

Absolutely I am: the team is littered with bad contracts and Brock has the potential to be the worst.

You seem pretty sure on Zacha, 6th overall pick that hasn’t panned out to justify the high pick, I’ve seen him a couple of times and nothing jumps out at me although I never really focused on him. What do you see in him?

I am not a big Motte fan to start with . I know what he brings . I have read he wants 2-2.5 mil for three years so I would gladly trade him.

I think I would like a prospect instead of pick because I have yet to see a year of drafting from a new crew. I know some take it as an insult when I say that but until they do something it is all guesswork .

I see a lot of happy people today on Twitter about the new signing of an over ager ,undrafted player. Good numbers , I have seen the highlight package . Need to see how he does.

- VANTEL


I like Motte quite a lot. I think another of him instead of Chaisson would be a big upgrade. But anything over $1.5m is too much and should be filled with an entry level contract.

Trading him is a tough call. You don't want to lose him for a playoff run, but a 2nd would be tempting.

Well that's not what I said whatsoever. I didn't put any ifs in there, I answered to them. I'd also give him his $6M a year that he currently makes, after that it gets more complicated.

Like I said, he's entering his peak years. He should be a 30G guy consistently at a minimum. You don't just walk away from that regardless of his warts.

If we are doing semantics

Toffoli 16 G in 49 games 4.25 mil

Kane 8 G in 19 games 2.1 mil

- VANTEL

Kane plays with McDavid, Toffoli plays with ?

Ya I ignore it, not worth looking into it, I’ve got better things to do than chase rumours.

He hasn't panned out as a top line guy , but has great third line numbers and will only cost a third line salary.

Caught in the depth spiral in jersey? If it’s for brock let’s say then they would have to add more.

Prefer they trade Brock, but one of him or Garland need to go, just on the cap issue alone.

They should be talking to Arizona about Chychrun and get some sandpaper like Crouse added in with it. Coyotes want big return if you could send picks, and Myers + back.
Baby steps.

Yeah but Blake told Friedman that he’s looking to pay a similar price that he paid for Arvidsson so the equivalent of a 2nd + 3rd


So I wouldn’t expect anything big in return

But does Miller want to stay here? I know brock does, not sure on garland.
