Bobby margarita hahahahaha

 

Devils have named Ryane Clowe an assistant coach, even though he still has 2 years left on his contract as a player lmao

 

Cam Ward wrote a really lovely article for The Players' Tribune about his son and I'm sharing it here because goddammit MY EMOTIONS The Bravest Guy I Know | Cam Ward

 

yea, I read that today. that was really great.

 

Being reported that George McPhee will be GM of the Las Vegas... team.

 

NHL Rankings - ESPN

I just did a quick glance but I agree with Tampa at 1 but seeing Panthers at 2 just doesn't feel right.

I'd probably move Nashville up more also over Habs for pre season ranking.

 

I didn't even hesitate to go straight to the bottom of that list. Who's slated to go number one next year?

 

Edmonton: 14th

No.

 

Nolan Patrick, another C, or some Finnish d-man whose name I can neither spell nor remember. If we do bottom out again and don't draft a d-man I'mma be cheesed as fuck.

 

I'd move rangers down from #12 and Nashville up into top 5. didn't look at anything else, really.

 

edmonton kinda high

 

ESPN sucks when it comes to hockey. Wouldn't even look at the list.

 

a little high don't ya think?

Victor Rask

 

taking #9

I have an old Parise which I theoretically COULD get stripped. but it has the Reebok logo on the neck and not the word Reebok that they use now. I am a stickler for jerseys so it'll bother me lol

 

Nah. It's just about right. Maybe slightly below market value. He's a top 6 guy.

 

Bobby Mac's wager was correct.

Las Vegas NHL team picks George McPhee as general manager

 

Listened to an islanders podcast this morning and they pretty much were spot on. Garth snow is either a complete moron or he has a plan in place next year or after so hes scrapping all his dimes together.

 

Isn't his only bad move this offseason was the Ladd deal?

 

$1.4 AAV

 

More of letting all those guys go for less than anyone anticipated than anything. He didn't negotiate or even look into what they might get from their agents, he was just like peace guys I'm not gonna even bother keeping any of you.

 

unreal deal

 

Is this considered a good hire? From what I've read it seems like they could've done worse.

 

McPhee traded Filip Forsberg for Martin Erat so he will forever go down in infamy

 

Forsberg is easily the best transaction in Predators history thus far.
