Lot of coin for PK
- Nighthawk

In your post that I was responding to, you said he could score and not much else; I added that he can also play PK, so yeah he's getting a lot of coin from a contract he signed almost 9 years ago, but he isnt one dimensional as you alluded

I have butchered the Canucks lineup with trades and still made playoffs in NHL 18. The coding in that games GM is (frank)ed up.

Ha! I did the same. GM'd season 1 about 10x already and no matter what I do...still finish .500 or better. Go figure.

In one of my GM modes the Leafs screwed themselves in cap space and i was able to offer sheet Matthews. Between him, Pettersson, Boeser, Demko all being elite level and Juolevi turning out as a 92 OA top pairing Dman i won several cups

I also traded for Bufs 1st round pick and they finished 8th but won the lottery so i got 1st overall despite being a playoff team

I never noticed you can turn off scouting notification. how do you do that?
It is so hard to get a top 5 pick in that game sometimes.

It's in the quick settings. Forgot to mention I even made player ratings more realistic. Lowered some of them.

I don't really like the changes they made to OVR. Makes it more of a "you're either good, or you're trash" kind of feel for the most part.

Vanek not playing

What's the bet on return, prospect?, Draft pick? Both?

Guess it depends who the buyer is... so if it's a top team... I say a 1st isn't out of reach.

Source thinks this is a precautionary move and not because they are close to a trade

Not sure about formality, but believe Erik Karlsson has made it known to Ottawa in recent days that he would prefer to see expedited resolution to the current situation.


Not sure how legit Yost is, but man Karlsson is basically just one step below of demanding a trade

Entirely because the circle around the number goes yellow if they're below 80 imo

sounds like Max PAc is in the same boat.

I'm real curious to see where Karlsson lands, and if he can make a difference on a contender this year.

I think he needs a full healthy off-season to recover from that injury. He doesn’t look as explosive. Maybe he has mentally checked out though.

Patches is Kessel 2.0

Really good player who’s being asked to do too much on a bad team and needs to get out of the spotlight.

seems like it.
i like the idea of SJS picking him up.

He'll never be as explosive.

He had a surgery no other player in the NHL has ever had. His calcaneus bone and ligament or something like that is completely artificial

In terms of entertainment, he’d be fun to watch on Tampa.

That PP would just be unfair

Stamkos, Kucherov, Hedman, Karlsson

Jesus...

Really? Damn.

Maybe that’s why we’re hearing more about Tampa chasing McDonagh instead.

Yeah Ray Ferraro brought up the ankle thing during a broadcast as he knows the surgeon.

and said he watches most game at ice level and he isnt the same player.

That would be quite the powerplay

That's really too bad. Hopefully in the offseason he can train enough to get some of it back/find a way around it.

Vanek healthy scratched.

I smell a 2nd or good prospect comin

Curious to see what JB can get when he mention a player with size and skill is what they are seeking.

I still don’t think it’s fair to judge him on this season. Almost every pro player that suffers a major injury like that always says that they feel closer to 100% after a full healthy off-season.

Yes i over did it but i maintain he’s overrated
