Hutton is Canadian

So is Scott Wilson but they both college hockey in the US, side note I don't care about the whole CHL thing. But if he does hate the CHL might be nice targeting Zucker today

Can the St Louis or SJ first rounder be traded.

They both have conditions tied to them?

No, we got a 1st, 2nd, and two prospects. They got two decent seasons out of Pommer before he turned into a bag of chit. We won that deal.
- sskkoo1


We got Guhle out of that deal, and ROR, which got us Thompson and a 1st and a 2nd.

End of the day, if 3/4 of those assets work out, I think we're fine here.

Gross. Mittelstadt should be learning how to play center. I don't want him to play well with Eichel and get a huge deal like Draisaitl. Let's see what he can do down the middle
- jcragcrumple

you have asplund and davidsson to fill in the lower centers down the road

Can somebody who has Twitter please nail down the rules for trading conditional picks? Idk, ask somebody in the know I guess? I have done some cursory research, and what I have found is that I believe you can trade them, but there would be further conditions added on top. For example, buff trades the St. Louis first for Skinner. If the pick is moved to 2020, Carolina also receives a 3rd

I believe this is how it works

Sobotka's career high in goals is 11, set this year at age 30. Please keep him away from the second line

What I wanna know is why people here are ecstatic that we didn't have to pay ROR his bonus . Why? It helps literally no one but Pegula. Why should we give a damn about what money our billionaire owner is saving, especially when potentially it lowers the potential return we could get.
- Tsyolin


I don't think anyone actually cares. Based upon the information spilled onto twatter, the price was already high, and it was going to be higher once we paid the bonus. Based on what Botts wanted all along (1st, 2nd, prospect), he was already making it hard for teams to pay that price. Center-needy teams are typically bad, so giving up a 1st is not quite easy. It was Buffalo's worst kept secret that ROR needed to GTFO. So, here we are.

The leafs were terrible for 20 years. They haven't won a cup in 50 years.

Yes lets compare...

Nope. Zero Canadians on the roster or in the pipeline.

I understand his position on players from the CHL having a smaller window to make a contract decision, but it does disturb me a little bit. It's one thing to prefer the college/European route for that reason. It's another thing to avoid the CHL altogether, which Botterill seems to be doing. The CHL is still the best developmental league out there. That should offset at least some of the concern.

how many blues games did you watch?


it's great to figure out where a player slots based on the back of a hockey card or their draft selection

What's the deal with what Fitz wrote about Botts admitting return would've been better if they paid the bonus? I guess Botts didn't realize how terrible that sounds? Thanks for saving the 7.5 mil for the good of the team and their fans. FML
