On another note, Matt Tkachuk is an engaging kid with a great personality. Loved the interview with him just now. Wish the Hawks drafted 4th.

If they did I'd take that Frenchy with 3 names. Beast, mean and might be a centerman. A young BackAss?

Why do I get the feeling that there will be ZERO action for the Chicago Blackhawks tonight?

Because Stan has freaked out and is staring into space. Just walking around talking to himself, shaking his head.

Don't be stupid Blues. BackAss is probably gone they'll need a top 6 centerman.

Why is that so easy to believe?

I need another GUINNESS.

All this talk about trading Bishop, Fleury, Crawford and we all know the reasons are financial. What is overlooked is how physically tough the position is and how easy to get injured with the crashing and banging in the crease that is permitted now.

What happens if Darling goes down after 10 games or Vasiliewsky gets injured long term in December. If a team doesn't have a major league backup who can carry the mail it won't matter much how good the rest of the squad is, they don't go very far.

So seller beware.

I hear you, goaltending isn't everything but you have zero shot without it...

I think a lot of GM's are rethinking a bit. Off the top of my head with guys like Griess, Nuevirth, Montoya, Pickard, and even Darling to an extent, coming up solid as career backups and add what Murray did they may take more chances moving a PROVEN #1.

I went with Sam Adams Nitro Coffee Stout for tonight.

We need a trade....

Gin Lime and Cranberry very little calories!

It warms my heart to hear Bettman booed. You are content with this league's slow decline from clear cut #4 in the USA to now behind freakin College Football+Basketball and even Soccer.

4 hours of Pierre McGuire! YES!

Agreed, but this is one time where is idiotic minutiae can be helpful.

I love that one too.

However, if you can get your hands on it, I suggest Desthil's 1920 Stout Imperiale. It's a stout aged in cognac barrels.

Hawks can add McNeill

Got hooked on that ever since BBQ King had it in tap. Guinness is my all time favourite; enough to build the nitrogen tank into my bar.

I'd thrown in the rights to McNeill too, just to be nice.
