Hayes was pretty good during the playoffs.

Hayes scored 4 goals in his last 50+ games

Slow day again? I hate this time of year.

I like Drouin better, but Duchene plays a bigger position of need.

Drouin. But I think Tampa is going to want a lot.

yep, makes you think why so many people are in such a rush to get to this time of year when the season is still going on

It's mostly just rumor & absolute speculation, nothing really doing until late June.

That Proteau blog at the top suggests a possible Duchene deal with the Rangers of Stepan and Graves going to the Avs for Duchene (close on money), and then Rangers sign Shattenkirk.

The deal is an interesting proposal, Shattenkirk aside.

Yeah, don't know what the (frank) happened there. Its almost like he put all his effort into defence and faceoffs and completely forgot about offense.

Not nearly as much as Sakic was (is?) asking for Duchene. Duchene deal probably starts at Skjei, Miller, 1st and I'm not even sure that gets it done.

McD and Stepan for Zadarov and Mackinnon

Dude, Duchene is not that good. Not even close. And he has a bit of a reputation for being a female dog. The shine is off him.

Duchene had two more points this past season than Skjei did as a defenseman in his rookie season

I can't imagine how slow Stepan would be up in that thin air 42 games a season

Truthfully, they really need to shy away from players like Duchesne, Shattenkirk, etc. imo. Leaders they are not

what if Tampa bought out Callahan, would you want him back cheap?

No, he is approaching Brown territory. His body is breaking down.

Just throwing it out there for discussion.


And honestly, there are realistic scenarios, and poop that will never happen ever. Better to discuss the pros/cons of stuff that could potentially happen.

By the way, I don't think its impossible that the Kings may ultimately look to see what they can get for Doughty.

I doubty he can have him.

That ship sailed, I mean even if it was for cheap, like mdw said, he's very injury prone now & getting more into his 30s every yr.

I'm the only one that sees the same issues creep up every year, I get it.

Washington could get him and we're (frank)ed

A lot of people thought when the Caps got Shatty that everyone else was (frank)ed, but 2nd round & out again for them.

Says more about shatty then anything else. You clearly see every year the teams that lack leadership, Caps are at the top of the list

Yea I don't know what they do to fix that & I don't care.
