I think because he was conceived on a Monday, born on a Thursday and is left nut is bigger and left handed he’s good to go.

Don’t know if I’m correct but Chiefs can confirm.

Correct. His left nut is (frank)ing HUGE.

Caps are playing well and hitting Kucherov every chance they get. With the fire power Tampa has you can’t really ever count them out.

Lightning have been doing what we usually do...too much passing looking for the perfect goal instead of just letting it rip. Lots of game left and they’re playing Carolina tomorrow.

Sure doesn’t take Tampa long to turn things around.

That Cirelli/Joseph line, (frank) me I wish they were Islanders/Oilers.

But Tampa just gave one back. I think it was Killorn who blew an easy opportunity to get the puck out of the zone, turned it over, and now it's 3 - 2.

Now 4 - 3, and the game is turning nasty.

Just wait until my suggestion of taking Callahan if they send Cirelli comes true.

By the way, good job with Tanner. He's such a tool.

#Isles announce signing of D Grant Hutton out of Miami (Ohio). One-year ELC for 2019-20.

Hutton, 23, was Miami's captain this season, 7-14-21 in 37 games. Right-shot D, 6-foot-3, 209.


Corey Pronman had Hutton ranked as the 22nd best available undrafted UFA.

Here's his write-up on Hutton:

22. Grant Hutton, D, Univ. of Miami (Ohio)-NCHC

July 25, 1995 | 6-foot-3 | 205 pounds

Hutton is an interesting prospect because he’s a 6-foot-3 defenseman who skates well for a big man and has a cannon of a shot. He can help a pro power play with his trigger man abilities. His puck game is so-so. His hands and vision are not his selling point, but his feet allow him to bring pucks up the ice and dish it off to someone off an entry.

I'd still would like MDC and JHS to get a shot. Isles getting very little from Bailey and Eberle.

Not that I'd turn any away, but no undrafted UFA they sign is going to matter for this year. They have time to do that.

In other words, a slightly bigger version of Nick Leddy.

- JohnScammo

Not sure I'd qualify any of Leddy's limp-wristed glorified dump-ins to the goaltenders chest as "a cannon"

Organizationally-speaking, however, it does make Leddy incrementally more expendable. I think he's a goner this offseason and, honestly, I encourage it. He's got grade-A wheels and grade-F hockey IQ.
