So?

I'm not sure the our chances are less than last year. The West is weaker this year. I think the issue is with finding someone for Laine. Little has been very good this year. Calgary confirmed they were out earlier. Price too high for them. We're not signing Stone because we won't have the big bucks available. Unless they can a hometown discount and that's not happening. I'm not sure why we would move an experienced defender that can play big minutes??

I expect Simmonds to land in TBay.

Not much out there for D. I would like to know what the nature of Morrissey's injury is and the prognosis.

I'm okay with the pay. Hayes is exactly what we need.

Good trade for the Jets. Hayes makes the Jets better up the middle. Very skilled playmaker and goal scorer. — Ezra Ginsburg (@ICEzzyG) February 25, 2019

Hayes for a 1st and Lemieux, plus conditional. Probably fair. We have our 2C now.

The replies are awesome. Although, some idiots predict Stone for Laine.

And, after they lose in the first or second round, they lose Duchene, Panarin, Dzingle, and Bobrovsky in the offseason, for nothing, and have no picks for the next couple of years.

Laine's going to score four. He's going to climb back into the top 10 in goal scoring before the end of the year and get that bonus.

As many times as he's deserved.

It's true love between Dano and the Jets. If you love something set it free. If it comes back it’s yours. If not, it was never meant to be.

Foucault is probably on a cheaper contract now then what he could get on the open market. Although, if he's released, it might set off a chain reaction. For the right price in a trade, I would certainly be interested.

Seems like yesterday...

I don't think they stand pat but the Caps did last year. I could see them saying the price it too high and getting a vet with leadership instead. Someone who can come in and out of the line-up.

From the article... Mike Reilly, Bo Levi Mitchell, Trevor Harris and Zach Collaros headed an elite class in 2019 as all four made it to free agency. One of these things ain't like the other. Dunk looking for those Rider clicks.

Depending on the contract situations and bonuses, a team could get a real steal here. I bet Hervey has some suitors. I'm thinking the Riders would have interest in Elimimian and Foucault.

I assumed Elimimian's deal included a big bonus that's already been paid? If so, a trade could work out well for a team close to the cap. But, how does it save BC? If no big bonus, why not?

I don't think the timing works on this one. No way the Secret Service clears a massage parlour.

Early reports say that these women were being held as slaves. Those poor women.

But they have room to re-sign him and they're probably in on Karlsson.

They could take on a few, expiring in a year or two, garbage contracts and get some extra picks.
