Not earth shattering if its PEB going..
Also means more time for God I mean VdV maybe>?

I would expect it means more opportunity for Laughton and Vecchione.

Yeah, I thought it was weird that they leap frogged him for PEB. Watch them give it to Weise
- hereticpride

Couturier is home grown and takes on a lot of responsibilities. My vote goes to Coots.

Wouldn't have thrown myself off a cliff if Raffl had been chosen, but now that he and Laughton are both still around -- if Laughton can win a spot -- then this, to me, is already a good offseason

Raffl's better than Bellemare, to me. And removing that crutch from the coaching staff is maybe the best thing that could happen

Sometimes, the band-aid's gotta come off

PEB is a golden knight
No sides announced yet

- Marc D


This would be a great day if they took PEB without any side deal. Even if they included a side deal, it would likely be for very little like a mid round pick or something.

Give the A to Gudas
I'm serious

- Marc D

I have no problem with this but I'm really hoping for Coots the more I say it.

In the last hour or so I think it was Craig Custance reported that PEB seems to be going to Vegas.

Then lots of snark about VDV, lovechilds and Hak getting mad.

G and Simmer have letters. Put the other A on a defenseman.
- dragonoffrost


Morin has to earn the "A." And by "earn" I mean consistently lay out no less than 8 people per game and get in 2 fights per game over a span of about 4 months.

However, once he doesn't do that, he needs to be stripped of the letter immediately and labeled a bust.

You left off Flip.

I think they'd carry Leier as an extra forward over Vecchione due to waivers.

Apparently he'll be the center of their marketing plan.

Figures the "Face of the Franchise" will be the one guy whose face you can't see during the game.

On the top line, though the LWs seem pretty interchangeable.

He plays as hard as anybody on the team. Wouldn't bother me in the slightest
- AllInForFlyers


I want him to go a full season without getting suspended for a stupid/unnecessary hit first.

Not sure why Lindblom is a 4th liner but like it!

Just switch him in for Patrick since we're apparently trading the pick for some stupid reason.
