Wow. Mumps?! That's insane. Scary stuff

Exactly....many bubble teams won't be making a playoff pitch. Ottawa and Montreal are probably the exception. Teams like TO won't be adding.

The expansion draft has a bit of an affect as well

25 buyers? Give your head a shake
- CanuckDon

Only 16 teams can make the playoffs but there are 25 buyers?!?...
- Flamin_Irishmin

Right, but the deadline is not on the last day of the season.

Who are the sellers at this point in time?

Colorado.
Arizona.
Dallas.
Vancouver (hopefully).
Carolina.
Detroit.
Possibly N.J.

That's 7.
Take a look at the standings you lazy bastards.
Pulling teeth around here for christ sakes.

im very thankful I added the fact that I was not a doctor lol. Obviously not all immunizations are 100% full proof. I personally just don't know anyone who has ever had it, so its weird to hear that is has become so rampant in the NHL the last few years.

Yeah we were totally shocked when he got it. There were a few other teams that had it so games were moved and anyone with the symptoms were told to not exercise for 5 days just in case. It kinda makes sense though, if anyone picks it up its bound to spread. The teams spend so much time together in close quarters, share bottles, towels, etc. lots of exposure

100%. Teams don't want to trade for players with term and they certainly don't want to give up protectable assets.

didn't joe thornton film a movie when he had the mumps? i think it was called mask.

What's stopping it at 7 ? Why not every team that's out of the playoffs right now ?

You think the other 23 teams are buyers for sure ?

I have had season tickets for 20 years I deserve better. I am smart and rich with a hot wife Why does Benning hate my family I am done with the team as they have ruined my life

Sincerely,

Striker

Because the vast majority of those teams are within a few (frank)ing points of the playoffs. They might not be buying, but they very likely will not be selling.

(frank) me

Part of me wants anything for Hansen and Burrows...like two 3rd round picks. Part of me wants nothing so I can revel in the chaos and tears on this site

The trolling will be horrendous!

So the Canucks then. ....

Benning is on the radio right now. Per Omar A on Twitter, he says Grenier and McEneny are being recalled, not Subban.
- Carol Schram

Thanks for the info.
McEneny has had a really good season and all of a sudden is a legit prospect, I'm looking forward to getting to see him.

So the Canucks then. ....
- Redmile247

I wouldn't put it past Benning.

He hates draft picks.

I just hope he gets any picks.... i don't care if it's a 2nd or 7th.... get any picks because he does well in all rounds!!!

Including the first ?

How many teams annually are active buyers and then they don't make the playoffs? None? The bubble teams probably won't buy or sell. This should be common sense?

I wouldn't put it past Benning.

Will you avoid the site or enjoy the tears from the drama queens? I am not sure at the moment.

that's not nice of you to say.... sure Mumps can cause some deformities, but to call the Canucks Trolls is a bit too much.

popeye hated spinach.

it was all that nagging from olive oil. "eat your greens." "you're anemic and you need spinach." blah blah blah.
