Yeah i added afterwards.. if he was claimed. I think that would count, right?
- CoHo_to_B-Lo


I'm just relying on CapFriendly. Based on that, it wouldn't count.

Conditions: If Sheary scores 20 goals or totals 40 points or if Hunwick is traded before the 2019 draft, Pittsburgh upgrades to a 2019 3rd round pick.

Comes down to waive/send down

Hunwick
Pilut
Elie
Smith

unless they have a trade in the works or someone else is hurt enough to IR

- Lunaion


I'd waive Elie, also I would see if I could find a trade partner for Beaulieu.
Off topic but two years from now $17.9 off the cap with Sobotka, Sheary, Bogosian, Scandella, Hunwick contracts expiring, we're in a good spot

If the cost is a pick (even a third), I think you definitely waive Ellie and hope. Maybe they can send Hunwick down on conditioning assignment or something like that...other teams do it, why not us?
- ChicmjBuffalo



The trade with Pitt is that if he is traded they get a 3rd round pick instead of a 4th.

Was unsure about a waiver claim.

I don't think that's true though. They can send Hunwick down, they just can't trade him.
- Lunaion


Botts is in a tough position. Last year this is a no brainer. One of the waiver exempt two-way contract go down to Roch. With us being a playoff contender and the youngins playing well... waive Elie.

I've been tooting the Tage Thompson horn since I went to the Avalanche game October 11th.

Ya'll were hating on the kid but I told you to lay off.

Now everyone blowing their pants off in excitement.

I don't always get to say this: Told ya

Yeah if that terminology is exact... then it doesn't matter. Just wasn't sure if it was a "he has to be on the team" type thing.

I blew it in my pants. Not my pants off. I was never a hater, but after last night...

Someone pointed out the bottom 3 stripes in the white jersey are wrong (should be 2 yellow with a blue on the inside but meh, NBD). As long as the pants have the white/yellow/white stripe down them I'm happy.

Does Ellie need to go through waivers?

He does need to go back down to the farm. Its not his time yet.

Keep CJ, Keep Pilut, both are playing well enough to get the opportunity.

I want to see Tage keep growing an working hard here also. He needs to make a new best friend and join Risto for his off season workout. Could you imagine Tage with about 10 to 15 pounds of muscle and that little bit of extra snarl Risto came into this year with?

I like what's going on with the youngins, must be patient. I know the 10 game win streak did not help the patience factor around here...but they are progressing. The original outlook for this year was to watch the team develop and fight for a playoff spot. I'm still trying to hold that as the goal. Do I want more? Abso-freaking-lutely! But I'm trying to keep myself in check too.

Time for Skinner to go back to Carolina and get a hattie!!

Erod played very well last night. Generated a lot of odd man chances. Not sure what buttons Housley pushed during the 1st intermission, but clearly they were the right ones.
- HonkFortheGoose


I agree with erod.

He looked fast, especially short handed.

Definitely an nhl player last night.

96-2005 was like the prime years of me becoming a fan. I was 9 in 96 so i was really getting into it at that time. It was my first ever jersey, I still love them til this day.

"The only players that didn't were forwards Jason Pominville, Remi Elie and Zemgus Girgensons (who played in only one game) along with defenseman Marco Scandella."

This name will not be found in this blog again after Friday when Jack is re-activated.

What’s the future going to be for Okposo? Really? He still has three or four more years on the contract. He’s looking old and slow, like a Moulson type situation, perhaps even worse in terms of term and salary. Does he get bought up, is there a way to move him, or is he suffering on the third line for another four years?

Maybe Elie is a good team guy?

Maybe he fits in better then wilson?

Age, personality and he fits what the coaching style is looking for.

Speed and defensive awareness
