if we keep winning and montreal keeps winning...we will get Boston in the first round

Boston will catch them, toronto montreal in the first round

How so? It's a fact. Everyone has a price.
- honesthockey

Sure, but you don't just pay the price because that's what it is. If it's too much then you pass. Is it worth fixing a glaring weakness if it just creates a whole bunch of new weaknesses?

Wait he hit his own captain?
- AdamFrench

Ooops my bad!

-7 over last 6 games... wasn't too bad prior to that.
- Big_Lightnin

Probably what pushed them to a trade.

Yeah really, isn't it that simple? You decide what you need and then you just tell other teams to trade them to you. That's how it works, right?
- Jeffmt

I don't know if you've had the cheesy chicken fajitas at Moxie's, but if you have, you'd know that it makes any trade possible.

Gillis squirming right now. They're feeding him the Luongo quotes

I love that gillis runs the Canucks..

What a (frank)ing meathead.

Only way it could be better is if he was the habs GM.

apparently this washington trade is a monster ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Franson may be moving in to the top 4 where he should be.
- StanleyCupDreams

I'm not sure Franson belongs in the top 4 just yet.

I like that he's been playing well in his current role, but to see him as a 18-20 minute dman for a full 82 games might be too much.

His offensive side has picked up, but he's still way too soft for a guy that big.

Probably what pushed them to a trade.

he wanted out so he tanked it

reporter: Luongo said his contract sucks and if he could rip it up right now he would - what do you think about that?



EDIT: - some chick just asked if he actually can rip up his contract

Sure, but you don't just pay the price because that's what it is. If it's too much then you pass. Is it worth fixing a glaring weakness if it just creates a whole bunch of new weaknesses?
- Jeffmt

Of course. It's a balancing act. But been hearing for 3 years that we need a 1c, we need a 1c, we need a 1c. Such a glaring weakness that had to be addressed.

Gillis: "He was emotional"

I'll leave you all to your opinions....when I see O'Byrne, I see a pooptier almost as expensive version of Komisarek, and if I had a choice between them, I'd rather go with Komisarek. And I predict by Sunday, he'll be your new whipping boy, so much so that you'll be begging for Jake Gardiner to be back in the lineup. Rip away folks.

Chimera for a 3rd

I'd be okay falling to 6th and getting whichever loser stumbles across the finish line in the Southeast.

It will get ripped up come buyout time...

- Big_Lightnin

He's emotional.

It has nothing to do with being stuck in a hockey poophole that's pulling his career down the drain.

They (frank)ed this up from the start. Should have kept their 'franchise player' gave him all the confidence in the world, and traded the younger, unproven.. Much more tradeable goaltender instead.

how many Avs games have you watched this year?

Of course. It's a balancing act. But been hearing for 3 years that we need a 1c, we need a 1c, we need a 1c. Such a glaring weakness that had to be addressed.
- honesthockey

Yup, that's how difficult it is to get one. There are a lot of teams in the league who would love to get a true #1 center.
