and I don't even know who Nate Thompson is and he has a 10 team NTC
- Giroux_Is_God


Ditto. But somehow, the dude has been around the NHL for 12 years. Maybe his NTC is CBA driven? (i.e.-- player in the league x number of years gets a form of NMC)

I guess I can see Hoffman making a decent number, if you look at his numbers. They are sneaky good.

I've never cared for Brassard and good for him, I guess, for cashing in on that one year when his SP was about 15%.

Yeah, my bud is a Sens fan and he's been saying Hoffman is one of the best in the game that no one knows about. He's a player, responsible on D too.

I'm not mad that Patrick isn't performing I'm mad whenever we trade someone they always do much better elsewhere. The most recent being Schenn. Why couldn't he (frank)ing play like this here.

All movement and trade clauses are individually negotiated.

Seems Ottawa is considering firing Boucher?

Berube, Hak and then Boucher. I might as well pop a cyanide.

I agree with what you are saying with Patrick Bill 100%. My only concern is that I would like to see Patrick generate more scoring chances. Seems when you watch him play he gets very little to no scoring chances in a game and seems to play perimiter hockey more then getting in front of the net or in the slot.

A lot of regular Sens watchers did not like that trade. They really liked Turris. The bottom has really fallen out and expectations were high after last year. Much higher than here in Philly. Hahahahahahaha!

Hopefully, some other East Conference teams can have the bottom fall out as we move through the season.

Following up on Eks thread..

What package from the Flyers gets Karlsson?
Im not saying I would do it just seeing what people would be willing to give up.

A gross over payment. I wouldn't even entertain the idea.

Rather have Provorov. What Karlsson does offensively is freakish, but call me old fashioned I'd rather let my forwards do the scoring.

Total bust; trade him for a 7th while he still has a shred of value.

Bad news for the Blues, but it improves our chances of that 1st maybe being a little higher.

If they win this one what does it accomplish?
Locks them in to the playoffs with a division win right?
