Russell is a Left Shot D. Does anyone know what injury that Jesse Pool-Party is dealing with/contemplating season ending surgery? Meniscus? Shoulder? Hernia?

Frontal Lobe. I've seen him play and he looks like Duclair without the skill. Total bust, IMO.

Kind of funny how Torts trashes Duc in the media and then uses him as a key piece to acquire Dzingel. Maybe JC should do the same with Perlini to help get us a dman.

The only attraction Ottawa had for Duclair is that he is a free agent at the end of the year. Melnyk is shedding every penny he can in salary commitments.

Unfortunately Perlini has been so bad Bowman probably cant find any takers.

LOL and I agree when I watch the Oil he’s pretty much worthless. Yet another reason why you don’t Tank. All draft boards had Puljujärvi as a top 5 pick, Edmonton took him at #4 and look at what he’s done....

I heard it is Q's fault that Perlini is playing so bad....

Maybe he should go play in England like his Dad?

Wow Russell kid 31, a few weeks ago when I said the Hawks should try and get Alec Martinez (who has history playing with Murphy in the Worlds) who is the same age, I was told we shouldn’t be looking for 31 y.o. Defenseman

Kekolainen isnt a stupid Finn, he passed on his countryman and took P L Dubois instead. Wise move.

This would make A LOT of sense given the history between him and Murphy. Fits the bills of Stan's moves so far this year. Wonder what the asking price would be. Forsling and a prospect (Sikura or maybe Perlini) or a 2nd or 3rd? Interesting idea.

Is he a LHD or a RHD? Also does he fit the mold of a Defensive minded D-man?

Left handed, can play both sides

I remember his getting a TON of flack for that one too. Goes to show you scouting matters sometimes more often than not than your draft spot

He has played his entire career for the Kings, he knows how to play defense, but has enough offense that he has been used by the Kings on the second power play if Doughty ever comes off the ice.

Left handed, can play both sides

Perfect so he fits the need. He a defensive minded D-man as well?

Kinda like the idea of adding a veteran to help with the young guys

Keith-Joki
Martinez-Murphy
Gus-Seabrook
Double K or Dahlstrom

Well Col hammering NAS on second of back to back .To bad coach Q up drove Duclair value so far into the toilet over his hatred of Stan, that he had to be given away . Stan might just have been able to pick up Dzingel for him and a couple 2nd rounder's .. Alas water under the bridge

God you're a broken (frank)ing record.

$4 mil for another 2 years, he keeps things simple, very consistent.

Including mine, I’m sure.

Sage, there's a difference between a broken record and delusional. For the record, you're neither in my book.

Nothing official. Fell awkwardly during scrum wrestling with someone.

There might be something brewing with the St. Louis Blues.

#AHL All-Star forward Jordan Kyrou a late scratch for AHL San Antonio and not believed to be injury related, per @BrianJMcCormack

New name enters into the deadline???

I'm in. Makes a lot of sense for both sides especially if its a deal surrounding Forsling. I doubt it happens but this is something I think makes sense for the team short and long term
