Good to know.

How about my fidget spinner for your car, 10K and your girlfriend?

The gf will be a thrown in, will be glad to get it off my hands. Sounds good, I'm looking for new wheels anyway.

who didn't think that Draisaitl was good?

I'll say it for the billionth time, the Oilers weren't trading both Taylor hall and Draisaitl last summer

I suggested hum prior to Hall being traded and everyone jumped down my throat when I said McD for him. Everyone said McD was to much, no way blah blah blah.

Unfortunately, nothing will change until Lundqvist goes. Now, before the I'm a Hank hater crowd jumps in, I have nothing against him. He's been the face of the franchise, and as accomplished a great deal. But, he's unlucky. And I'm happy for him that he's won gold medals and alike, but it don't mean squat. When your the highest paid player on the team, and at the position in the league, you're expected to rise above the shortcomings and deliver the team to the promise land.

And there inlies the rub. No goalie, in today's game can be expected to the be all, that ends all. It's a flawed philosophy, and once again it's reared its ugly head.

It's sad in a way, because I'm quite certain Lunndqvist wants to win a cup badly, it would round out his trophy case nicely. But, it's not gonna happen here, never was, never will. Until he goes, nothing will change.

I will not agree with this. He plays in the crease. He does not control pucks deflecting off players or scoring goals for his team. Did he let in some goals? Yes. Didn't the other goalie? Are you not watching other playoff games? No lead is safe in the playoffs...go ask Cammer in Edmonton.

The playoffs are when your best need to be their best. This includes your coaches. If they fail to show up, you are going to lose. Piss poor power(less) play...no changes? Bad coaching. Your 20+ goal scorers don't score and you need to rely on the likes of Tanner Glass, Oscar Lindberg, and Jasper Fast? You are going to lose. No Stepan, Krieder, Miller, Hayes, Zucc, Nash, McD, Staal...you are going to lose. The only players that were noticable nearly every shift was Smith (positive), Fast (positive), Lindberg (positive), Glass (positive), Grabner (positive), Staal (very negative), Holder (a bit of both positive and negative), Skjei (positive), Vesey (positive). Notice the issue? Your "top-two" lines were crap. You are going to lose. You think Mike Hartman, Greg Gilbert, and a Joey Kocur line were winning the Rangers the Cup in 94?

Hank had an up-and-down season. He will admit that. He still held his own for many games, though. If I told you he'd outplay Carey Price in the playoffs, you would tell me I was nuts.

I agree with most of this, but Zib and zucc were tremendous. Pretty much all the way through both rds

Its funny the dramatic change from when I was younger. The only way our parents let us be in the house was
1: We had to be very sick.

Some of those guys might go top-10, but I don't think it's out of the question to see them go 15th or a little later.
- eichiefs9



Rasmussen and Glass will be top 10, the others can go anywhere. Comtois is a guy to watch, came into the season projected between 5-10 and now he will probably be around late 1st.

Offer sheet Draisaitl 8.5 for 7 years. Give up two 1sts 2nd and 3rd. Trade Stepan for picks. Maybe a 1st and 2nd? No idea what Stepan would bring back in terms of picks.

No offer sheets are coming from the Rangers against the Oilers. There's just no way that is happening. Trade for his rights.

I am all for trading Stepan, though. The return should be pretty good. Perhaps to the Oilers...for someone's rights? Add a player to sweeten the deal?

I remember Gloria and me and my brother bugging my mom to let us go out and ride our bikes. She finally let us. Now that I think about it she was probably hoping for 2 less kids.

I don't see the Oilers interested in Stepan, they need to clear $$$ to sign Draisaitl and then McDavid to new deals

I(according to my mom) almost got thrown out of preschool for clothes lining a kid off a tricycle and inciting a brawl. I have no recollection of this, but wish I did.
