I'd gladly take Larsson on the Flyers.

Not if it meant you traded Giroux for him.

Nope. But a minutes-eating RH defenseman has value, too. Larsson isn't garbage.
- bmeltzer



Never said he was garbage. But he isn't a Norris candidate either. He is just ok.

I don't know how many of you watched the awards last night but if you didn't you need to go watch the Humboldt tribute and speech from the late Coach's wife. It was very emotional to say the least.

Make sure you have a box of tissues next to you.

Sixers should trade for Kawhi then flip him to the Lakers for some kids who can shoot some freakin basketballs.

Yes, as were Andrew Herr and Dylan Playfair.

Based on the show last night I can only conclude that Canadian television is really bad.

You mean to tell me you wouldn't trade the ginger Fraud Giroux for that right-handed average Swedish defenseman?

Balderdash!

I think it's on par with British television, with the only difference being that Canadian television is more about hockey and logging as opposed to British television being more about drinking tea and being proper.

Simmonds++ for ROR+

This could be exciting for the both of us...

Be curious of what your value is on what you'd be willing to give for ROR. Of course, Sabres thread is above my expectations but curious of yours.

It has gone downhill ever since Robin Sparkles made the jump to American television

I really have to question whether or not Buffalo is even on Simmonds no trade trade list. I just don't see how an aging power forward fits in there.

After looking at the Sixers roster, and NBA rosters overall, I don't get why people associate weird/foreign names with hockey. I don't think that Ersan Ilyasova, Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot, and Furkan Korkmaz are common US names.

I can agree with that. The market is really in our favor with him. As soon as JT announces he is resigning with NYI... ROR's stock will go up that much more.

I find it really hard to believe but guys like Dreger, Nichols, etc are saying that MTL's 3OA is on the table for ROR.


I personally don't see Philly being as good of a fit but... thought I'd see.

If you can get Montreal's 1st this year...take it and don't look back.
