I had to go back & make sure i wasn’t misinterpreting the trade suggestion

Can’t imagine Pitt would do anything other than hang up in laughter

Malkin might be struggling
But they aren’t gonna dump him for crap

MAYBE if they like Nylander or Guhle,
then one (or both) with Sam & a 1st
But even then i doubt they’d do it

Malkin has the ability to be a top5 player in the game

U think they’d move him?
That would be pretty surprising to me

I highly doubt it myself. More smoke and mirrors then anything. That team isn’t going anywhere anytime soon though. Would be at least worth a phone call.

Ducks lose by a combined score of 15-4 over the last two games. Matthews, Marner, Laine, Scheif, Wheeler had a combined one point between the 5 of them 😂

I think the guys they should be trying to move are Getzlaf, Perry & Kesler
Getlaf is the only one that would get a decent return
But they just need to dump these guys & rebuild around the young talent they have

If they don’t,
they’re just gonna turn into the Kings in a couple years

From what I’ve been told,
the 80s crushed that part of town pretty badly

Nice to see a lot of these Buffalo neighborhoods that have declined start getting better

A combined $7.5M for 2 goals in the last 67 games combined between Sobotka and Sheary. Could make it $10M if you add Hunwick.

It’s taken way too long to put Sheary back with Eichel and try Skinner with Mitts

I know that top line was playing great,
but we could’ve always gone back to it if the switch didn’t work

Ducks gave up 15 goals in 2 games

Worst goal differential in the NHL and 3 points out of a playoff spot 🤦‍♂️

With quite possibly the best goalie in the NHL this season, apart from the last couple of games. Ducks give up what seems like 45+ shots a game though. Bound to catch up to any goalie at some point.

Everyone got burnt out. The writing and show were creative and spontaneous. Clattenberg gave into the cliche wants and not creative expression so Mike was burnt out on playing a broken record over and over

Thanks for the scoop. I always thought that scene wher Cory and Trevor tried to scam ellen Paige’s bike off of her was genius. “You should do it... it’s a good deal...”

Reminded me of so many older dudes who used to hang outside of macs milk and try to bum quarters for the popeye arcade machine.

The early seasons were so good. The only thing that gave it away as a mockumentary was the fake guns and the actor who played that Richard Cyrus... totally bad acting.

Yes.
My wife's parents long ago lived a half of a block in from Grant street on Potomac.

Back in the day, that was the Cavern Tavern.
My wife's parents pretty much opened and closed that place from the stories that she tells me.

I miss the old west side.
I go down there now and it makes me wanna cry really.
My home that I grew up in at 176 Hampshire is still standing.
So is our old family owned store JP's (which is still a store to this day) on the corner of Hampshire and Plymouth.

I miss those days...

I googled your old place... which window did those girls yell up to you at?

Lol. Just giving you a hard time. I appreciate your new attitude.

Maybe we could arrange a three team trade involving the Pens and Malkin.
