Reirden should have been relieved of his PP duties weeks ago. There has never been four future HOFs on the PP because they've made almost zero effort to change anything on their PP. It's been Crosby, Malkin, Karlsson, Guentzel, and then Rust/Smith/Rakell. Tonight is the first game Letang is getting a chance on the top PP with the other four.

If Isles want Willy *now* the bid has to start with Dobson or forget it and Lou will have to get in line with everyone else on Jul 1st and open those deep pockets he’s been famous for.

that will not work cap wise

but I do like your thought on this possibility.
I would want a 1st round pick top 3 protected and a top prospect instead of Brazal

Sullivan is safe, because he is a Boston guy owned by a Boston group of owners (Fenway). He signed a recent extension as well.
It is totally fair to turn up the heat on him; as good a coach as he has been, he is very stubborn and things are just stale in Pittsburgh.
It might be time for a new voice--hockey coaches tend to have short shelf lives and Sully has been around awhile.

The Kings have literally a 21 man roster right now as they have $123,000 in cap space but they are going to trade for a guy who wants $10,000,000 a year? Come on man, I mean I know what this site is about but at least try to act like you know what you are talking about.

Are you high??

I don’t have an axe to grind with the Leafs, but this is nonsense. If I was the Leafs front office, I’d trade him asap. Take a top pair d man, and (prospect or 1rd pick) and move on.

Here’s why that makes sense.
1. The model they have just doesn’t work. How many years do you want to go into the playoffs and get bounced? Playoff hockey is very different from regular season, skill plus toughness wins.
2. He’s the only viable trade chip they have due to the current contracts the previous GM gave out.

I know most Leaf fans think their players are worth 10 times more than they are, but be realistic, change the chemistry, balance offense with strong D, and maybe you have a shot.

Nylander to the Sens.

Chabbot, Pinto, and I think they have Boston's 1st rounder in next years draft.

In many cases yes. The Fenway group is loyal to the dollar, end of list. Like everything they own, the Penguins are a line item on a budget sheet. It may seem that they're engaged but it's like a child with a new toy. They will become bored of you, and maintain status quo. Prepare for an internal below salary cap budget in the near future. It is coming. You will learn to hate them as we have in Boston.
