As a GM??? Please... he inherited a ducks team that was close to the cup already... In TO what exactly has he done that would make people think he is in high demand??? Maintained status quo and depleted the farm doing it??? Outside of fleecing the flames - most would say not much

As a GM BB is D Sutter 2.0.

Pleks had a bad yr, If he had Kessel on his wing he would have had 70+/- a few points
- habs&islesfan


You're right the drop from the 57 points the year before to the 52 points last year obviously showed he was having A bad year. Time to hang up the turtle neck Pleks.

Adding the finishing touches to a competative team is a skill. Burke has done that with ANA.

Building up a team's prospects to get them competative is another skill. Burke did that with VAN (Sedins + Kesler)

Teams looking to reach the cap floor looking at dealing for Thomas......which for me doesn't make much sense right now since there's no set cap floor and no collective bargaining agreement in place yet.

I just dont understand why a team would not overpay a FA whos looking for a 1-2 year deal instead of acquiring Thomas. I dont get the concept of acquiring a player strictly for their cap hit who you know isn't going to play.

Rumour has it... Penguins wanted to sign Staal because they had intentions of trading Malkin for a boatload to Toronto.

Trade would include... the 5th this year, their first next year, Gardiner++++

What do you guys think of this???

- jimmc7722


I highly doubt that's true....but if it were, for argument's sake......I hate the idea of trading Gardiner and the 1sts, but the thought of Malkin's #71 in the blue and white, damn......that kinda makes the libido twitch a little bit.

Maybe so they don't have to use a roster spot on him?

Bobrovsky for 3 picks? With a second rounder being the highest?

Man, I still can't believe Poile got 2 second rounders for Lindback!

- wings-suck



Should be the other way around. Lindback is much greater of a prospect than Bobrovski yet only went for an additional 2nd and a 3rd next year. Bobrovski was out in Philly and everyone knew that. Lindback did not HAVE to move from Nashvile. Big difference there

Difference here bob has games under his belt and a full season as a starter. Good trade for both teams, Columbus has someone to challenge mason, and Philly gets picks to deal away...
