Worst deal of the day
Even worse than Holl

- mr.sir


The deal for Gudas is up there too. Verbeek has to be the first GM fired this year.

You need something to be said about someone else to what, void the idea it's said about you relentlessly? And you want to talk about insecure...

Youre a virus.

I follow the ducks a tiny bit because of you actually. I don’t dislike them but I think they’ve had a terrible week. First they pass on Fantilli and the signings today.

Next year they will look back on this week as the reason for firing Verbeek.

Honestly dont mind the Ducks moves. They needed some toughness and experience to go with all the rebuild and young players. They had a solid draft, and a good week so far. The real challenge is how they deal with Gibson.

From a team standpoint it isnt terrible. With cap projections it keeps them pretty value in a few years...or so they hope.

Also if they suck again they won't be his problem lol

It’s always interesting, I’ll be watching fantilli and wondering if it’s another Dubois and puljujarvi(spelling) situation.

I think someone said he wanted a bigger role or something like that. But if there’s a narrative out there that makes the team look bad then we’ll go with that.

Not a ton of today's the day Nylander gets traded though and that's a tad disappointing

Just so used to the run back that a Nylander trade is obvi the last resort. They want him back, so why speculate about today being the day when his candyass should have been dealt years ago?

I will only be satisfied if we add both Bertuzzi and Domi
- Mr.President

I'd take Bertuzzi and Toews. Honestly, just even Bertuzzi at this point.

The Ducks were a disaster. Klingberg will be just fine in his role here on a good team.

1 year @ 4.15 is acceptable.

24-25 is the year this team will have to make big boy decisions.

- mjones242


Don't get ahead of yourself too much there. Remember that Klingberg was on a good team in Dallas and they couldn't wait to get rid of him.

He adds limited value and half of it is offense on the power play. His defensive play is horrendous and has been for a few years. Will a system with better defensive forwards help? Yes, I'm sure it will - but that Dallas team he was on was better defensively than we are and he was considered such a liability they had moved him to the bottom pair.

This feels like the Tyson Barrie experiment mark II and it was a terrible, terrible failure the first time around. As long as they can insulate him correctly with the right partner, it might be okay.

Obviously we have to play the games, but my initial take was that this money could have gone just about anywhere else and returned more overall value than Klingberg.

That's not losing it at all, sooky. Thats pointing out that rather than just endlessly say how unbearabable all these leaf fans are every day you should just go away and never come back.

People continue to let you know that you're a pompous bumhole and you're not getting the hint, maybe you should take that advice.
