Many good questions. I will answer as many as I can over the next few days...Lets start with a few now...
arichardson22 asks... What the EK are your expectations for Nico and Patrick? Who finishes with more points?
Ek: It is a great question. At this point I feel there is a great chance both make their squads and because the Flyers have more offense at this point, I feel Patrick will have a better chance at making a bigger early impact..The fact the Flyers moved Schenn was a huge tell that they see Nolan stepping right into the lineup...
15 Helberg asks... What the Ek will happen to Alex Chiasson and Daniel Winnik? Will they get PTO's? Are their NHL careers over?
Ek: Don't believe that either's career is done...I expect Winnik to get a PTO, and there are teams who may move on Chiasson once the Duchene trade goes down...
TongaPhaneuf asks... What the Ek happened to Julie? Is she still blogging?
Ek: Julie hasn't worked for us for a few years now. Last year she worked on the NJ Devils website...you can follow her on @julierobenhymer on twitter...she is a talented person who we always like to see succeed.
PensWin87 asks... What the Ek happened to Richard Park? One day he was an NHL rising star and the next "poof", he was gone....
Ek: So true...so true...;)
gergeswillems asks What the Ek happened to the Habs getting 2 high end defense prospects from Nashville for Paul Byron?
Ek: Nick Bonino became available as a UFA...
Fawkes asks... What the Ek is going on with Trouba's extension?
Ek: You hit the nail on the head...this will be a big story as the year goes...I don't see him staying in Winnipeg..
GCHonda asks.. What the EK am the only lonely person in all of Toronto?
Ek... Nope..I know quite a few..
more to come tonight...
