Of course it's Neon Dion! His first of the (frank)ing year.

Oh, no longer Dion's. So there's that.

Trade him for Pietrangelo
- Steven_Seagull

Sell high, buy low.

This is either the 2nd or 3rd time I have watched the Kings and they (frank)ing suck. Sorry, I was typing this before that goal, but it still stands. The whole pacific is junk.

even kovalchuk is slow now. he's still good but it's weird seeing him be all old and stuff

Kempe deflection. (frank) Phaneuf.

Nope! Kempe with the tip. Suck it Celine!

Rielly > Pietrangelo

- Unholy_Goalie

Yep.

Nylander for montour and Ritchie is horrible for the leafs
- Fakepartofme

that's putting it lightly

Trade them Hainsey and Marincin for Muzzin and done
- Roadrunner75

Hainsey is sticking around. I’m sure they wish he was lower in the lineup but by the sounds of it he’s a good guy to have around the room. Need guys like that.

He just can’t be playing a top 4 role.

Rielly > Pietrangelo
- Steven_Seagull

Defensively? Nah.

Rielly > Pietrangelo
- Steven_Seagull

at the very least it's close

I wouldn't get lost in that. Washington assembled a fantastic team and spent years tweaking it, and finally won. The Leafs are younger, and have several good pieces. I don't think this is the year. But they need to see some actual playoff success this year.

Wash didnt have a potential 3 players making 30 million
All forwards.

Kempe is about the only one I would want off LA really

Yep.
- Thecakeisalie

Christ. Even still.

Who flicks a no-look backhand pass in front of their own net with no pressure on them? If he's trying to make Gardiner look smarter, there's too much history there for it to work!

Plus one is younger...and cheaper....

- Santo_44

Yeah I know and wouldn't mind him sticking about as a PK and 5-6 guy really.

Aaaaaand another PP.... we just have to skate on these guys really.

Nazem Kadri Bob Ross drawing them penalties.

The cap was also a lot lower though so their sub-10 million dollar cap hits were technically lower but as a percentage they weren't that far off compared to what 10 million is today.

kadri is actually drawing penalties again this year. how many calls did he get last year? 2?

true

Well, it was a blatant trip.

- Steven_Seagull

But one is substantially better all around and plays a position of need.

Also, Nylander for a LHD to replace Rielly.

Teams better.
