I can see this team taking a big step up the standings, but another year out of the playoffs is a real possibility. All the big talent are rookies. A couple of key injuries and bottom feeding again is not out of the question at all. Another wave of good picks would do nicely. I can take another year of pain. I can take it, I can take it, I can (frank)ing take it.

better keep Bernier now... in case Andersen is too good.

cant wait for all your Taveras to Toronto articles Mike, I love wasting time

I can't for the life of me figure out the Hall - Larson deal... I thought the Weber - Subban deal was way off....

its like Chiarelli decided to want to steal the attention by doing the stupidest thing possible... guy makes no moves at the draft, still has Yakopov and RNH...

baffling.

Can anyone tell me the last time chiarelli traded a star player and got good value?

Clearly

There is no way in (frank) ShannyLouCock would be fine with finishing bottom 5.

If we don't upgrade our defense that is where we will be

Nobodys waiting long enough for Tavares to be a free agent, here'll be big ones at the end of this year.

What's it like having no hope of ever signing a top 200 ufa?

Stamkos was a legit UFA target. Don't see how this was a waste of time. I'm sure the Winnipeg blogger has a few lined up for the players who would pick Winnipeg over any other city.

Prices seem a bit high right now.

I read it somewhere, might have been here so it might not count.
But I think i read it in the Star.

I think kinggilmour said, so take that for what it's worth.

Yeah he's a spare tank tread.

Not going to fall for it again.

Hall sucks anyways.

Yeah, we didn't finish bottom 5 last year and we endured Bernier, Defense will be middle of the pack.
Maybe better with Andersen.
All depends on if we can get enough offense.

How pissed are you?

Yeah

How pissed are you?

Not angry.


Little sad.


However. I tell myself. If they get Lucic (seems like a good chance), they are clearly a better team after this.

Honestly RNH for Larsson would've been crazy to me. Hall is just overkill.
