i give it a B. He misread the market but he still got something out of it and avoided a potentially bad contract. Hopefully he re-signs with the Sharks and Benoit re-signs here.

Kane and Eichel were very friendly, often going out with each other around Buffalo. Don't believe everything you read on the site.....

This is true.
Doesn't change the fact that he was not a good team mate in the room and on the ice.
His dedication to the game is not 100% .
I can GUARANTEE you that!

Spot on.

Only way they resign him is if he plays really well and looks really good to the GM and loves SJ and wants to play at a value price. So basically he'll be hitting Free Agency. But we got a small chance of value that it'll be a first, which apparently is really important, so we should be happy.

I saw Kane & Eichel were out together on his 21st bday
Couldn’t have been too much hate going on between them

I just can't believe people are mad. For all the times we celebrated ourselves for trade deadline, FA signing day, draft day and it ultimately meant jack poop, now we're mad?

Apparently 30 other GMs and the Three Eyed Raven agree GMTM got a raw deal. Relationships don't matter in business and should not be used to factor in how good a GM is. I'm not always right, but aint ever been wrong. Still undefeated on this board.

Man, so disappointing. I know I did not hear the offers, but I am done with this team this year. Not so sure about the GM either.

So the only thing I have to root for right now is Sharks resigning Kane. So fun!

Watch this team over achieve and have a miss a great chance at a lottery pick.

Eichel OReagan ERod were leading scorers together at Boston. Plus OReagan played with Erod for USA. Not that it means anything great, but at least some chemistry

I think its funny cause people were pumping Smith's tires here like he was the next guentzel but oregan is some hack? Reality is both could be decent bottom 6 options. Even if kane doesnt re-sign, O Regan, 2nd, 4th is fine for a an overrated top 6 ufa with negative reputation league wide.

The Rangers were fighting for a playoff spot when they announced they were gonna be “sellers”

I don’t remember another team ever doing this

VERY BALLSY

And they got good returns for the guys they shipped out

Pretty impressive job by them


Making room to go after Tavares?!

Not saying it has to mean much, but at least some kind of story I guess. I would say ERod is better than expected, no?

I think people thought we had more than we did. This is not the 2014 Sabres offloading Miller and Vanek. The only player of value that we were looking to get rid of was Kane, who had a history, who was a good scorer, who is a free agent, who another GM bought high on and gambled on and failed with. We weren't sitting on a gold mine. The other names we could have traded are all average to below average players. Girgensons and Larsson have 9 goals between them, no one's trading for that. Gorges can't even hold a spot on the 30th place team in the league, who is giving up value for that? Where are people seeing this missed opportunity? The only one with any potential value was Pouliot and we can sit here and debate whether he was worth a 4th or a 5th but that shouldn't be enough for people to be ready to burn their jerseys.

So Tatar gets trade to VGN for a 1st, 2nd & 3rd, last three years including this year Reinhart has better total point numbers...
