Just an FYI. Minnesota's window is closing, with Parise, Suter, Koivu etc.

They are not moving a center this season on the projection that a prospect (Erickson Ek) is going to make the team.

Just on the topic of Eriksson Ek, he could be a Calder candidate. Might force his way into the top 6 quickly.

If I've made a mistake on what he used to play before becoming a LW I apologize. I could have sworn he was a C before hitting the NHL. My bad.
- Brandon Smillie

No worries.
He may have been...90% forwards in the NHL likely played some center before making the NHL, but in 6 seasons he's won 4 face-offs.

Yes. I like him.

Just saying the Wild's window is now. Parise, Staal, Cullen, Koivu, Suter and Dubnyk all over 30. I'm going to guess they are going to go all in this year.

They should. They still have a 2-3 years with this group though and got very good deals for Granlund and Niederatter that will help offset that terrible looking Parise contract.

No doubt he has. I went searching for evidence to back up my claim and found all his junior/AHL listings as "F" Dammit. Maybe I should've looked that up first before commenting.

As Duchense? They are not as good...no.

Patches will be on your first line and will be playing with either Chucky or Drouin (or both). Someone to give him the puck.

The ALT-RIGHT was CLEARLY provoked by the "alt-left"/ dirty hippies.

WTF you expect if you provoked armed militias with water balloons and batons?

Probably expected them to change their minds and realize they were wrong.

Everything can be stopped with the "CTRL-ALT-DELETE" movement. They're shutting everyone down.
