I'm afraid to say Schultz might even be better than Larsson. Chiarelli screwed you guys. So sorry. Edmonton is my 2nd team

You could've had Määttä + for Taylor Hall from us, no doubt. Määttä is better than Larsson.

anyone see 30 thoughts? Elliott was touching on some rumour of 3 way deal with Barrie goign to Edmonton, Shattenkirk going to Avs, and Hall or Eberle going to St Louis.

I am not sure how I feel about this sort of talk

- DDM-Coga



Please God yes!! I want Eberle gone... His half assed efforts the past few seasons should all but secure him a ticket out of town... TBH- wouldnt surprise me one bit if Chia ships all 3 out of town... I will miss Hall but Nuge and Eberle were my wish tradebaits for this offseason...

Fleshlights have a model out now where you add a sensor thing on the top of the fleshlight and it creates an interactive experience with select videos...

I'm thinking about Popsicle sticks, tape and a pic of RC will create a superior experience

I don't see Eberle leaving now. I'd actually be surprised if anyone else gets traded before the start of season (except perhaps Yak).
Chia will probably look to free agency to fill in the remaining gaps. Tomorrow should be interesting.

Gotta say that was a pretty poor sales pitch. You'd better let Laughs do the talking with future investors.

This

After yesterday, probably a little more susceptible to believing rumours than I was before.
But while they're out there, doesn't make a ton of sense to keep going unless he's got more reasonable replacements up his sleeve

Moving hall for the needed defender created a hole. But it looks as though lucic might be up his sleeve.
If in fact demers is signing, there's no obvious holes left to warrant another trade.

Not to say that more cant be done/fixed. Just that forcing puju into top 6 by moving ebs etc, might not be wise. Or moving nuge for another high priced defender after signing demers AND having nurse/Davidson in the system

Lucic and now Seidenberg coming in hot!

A Yak for Chara deal still in the works too.

I disagree- there will be at least 1 more trade... Is Demers a sure thing tho?

No idea what's sure and what isn't

I've heard lucic is done (which makes a ton of sense now) and demers is pretty much too. But who knows ?

I like larsson and arent as down on this deal as most. but as of yesterday, I'd be pretty sure we wouldn't deal hall for him straight up


Needs and the market trump value every time I guess

I already know how it's going to pan out. We are going to sign Lucic and maybe Demers to long overpaid contracts. We will see improvement and make the playoffs next year. Everyone will be excited and happy to be improved. Then we will be stuck with overpaid guys long term trying to resign McDavid, Nurse and Drai and Puljuju but we'll be up against the cap. We will be a 15-10 place team in the league for a decade and nothing more.

If they snag Demers I will be satisfied with the D acquisitions for the year.

If Yak gets moved I'm hoping its for more center depth. Someone like Girgensons. In my perfect world Drai and Eberle would be the top 6 RW with Pulj slotting in on the 3rd line and Kassian on the 4th. Then McDavid, Nuge, Letestu and the recent center pick up could fill in the middle.

I get stacking lines, but I've always liked Leon at center way more.

Lucic, Leon, eberle
Maroon, Connor, yaks
Poo, nuge, puju
Hendricks, letestu, kassian


Klefbom, larsson
Sekera, demers,
Davidson, nurse
Fayne


Interesting to say the least

Could be real good depending. But I say with no certainty whatsoever

Bob Stauffer says the likelihood of Demers being signed diminishes with Larsson.

I think there'll be a trade for a solid RHD that can play powerplay minutes.

Bob Stauffer: "Some people say you can't get Tyson Barrie for Nugent-Hopkins. Yes you can. Colorado has to be willing to move him though."

I have a question, if we get Barrie, what do we pay him?

I do to. And as soon as Nuge or McDavid get injured he certainly will be.
