Could Ovechkin lite score more than 9 goals in 32 games? Is that too much to ask?
- kingcong39

Everyone has down seasons. Right now he has John Tortellini breathing down his neck trying to make him a power forward

This is most ideal.
- DirtyDan


Ideal for me is good/great Ullmark backing up excellent UPL. And soon.

If only we drafted Lundell
- gerbe75pts


Lundell was the guy I wanted at 8.

However, I didn’t think Rossi would be there so I would have taken Rossi over both.

I’d be more then happy to eat crow though if Quinn ends up being better than both.

He's not having a down season. He had two good seasons that were aberrations due to a ridiculous shooting percentage of 18%

Since then he's shot 12%

Ship him yesterday.
- DirtyDan


I have a feeling he's going to be Scandella, where he leaves and plays significantly better elsewhere.

Ship him for sure, but I think the team that acquires him will get a better player than we've seen.

I like him a lot but we can't give him a 10m a year contract.

Right now VO is the cheapest option

IMO the only way you trade Ullmark is if he told you he plans on testing FA and you know you have another goalie you can get

Florida just cleared cap space. Maybe a run at Hall?


Lundell or Tippett please and yes we would add

Maybe we can trick Florida into thinking Olofsson is good.

You think Laine would command 10 mil?

I am thinking GMs have an agreement this year not to claim players.

Lots of good players making it through waivers.

Yes .. It's pretty clear that the NHL has an agreement going on because that's ridiculous that he didn't get claimed

Maybe they package Hall with one of Montour/Miller if Florida is indeed the front runner.

Florida has a need at RHD due to Ekblad being out.

If that’s what it takes to pry a 1st rounder + I’m all for it

I dont think you're appreciating how improbable 2 seasons of 18% is

Even at 12% the guy is a 30 goal scorer.

I want him big time

Why on earth would the nhl risk a collusion accusation over mediocre players being claimed?
