Yankees get Cole

9 years 324 mill

- SABRES 89


I hope he develops a very specific shoulder injury where he can't throw, but it otherwise has no effect on his life, and the Yankees are on the hook for the entire deal.

Basically, (frank) the Yankees.

Why, why god do I have to be right all the time. Be very afraid of my other prediction


Ristolainen plus-4 tonight -- and plus-13 over the last seven games.

I am curious:

Is everyone for real?
Has anyone who posts played hockey?
Other than video games?
Is everyone beyond reproach?
Do people who post know what reproach means?
Do any of you enjoy anything?
In your families, are you the only one who knows all?
Are any of you having ANY enjoyable experiences?

Tonight: good game played by a team that has been terrible for a long time. They got back from a tough western road trip and f’n won! Trap game to disappear and they won.

Take a deep breath and enjoy! Tonight was good stuff!

If they are hell bent on keeping 55, then a top 6 of

26/10
62/55
24/33

Should be the goal.

Quick glance around the show, Eichel is the hottest player in the league during his point streak...and the GOL might be the best 4th line in the league!

Trade market Imo:

Sheary
Mitts
Skunk
Erod
McCabe
Scandella
Hutton

Thinking of moving Risto or Skunk to find a complimentary player for Eichel isnt as valuable as filling the middle 6 with competent talent.

That should give Botts 2 packages to find a fit for the middle 6. Riding the waves so far, its been more enjoyable to watch this team this season than the last 5.

That Murphy guy down in ROchachcchcha is on pace to be the power forward this roster is lacking.

Reinhart with a goal and an assist.
- sbroads24


I'm trying to determine whether it's the goal or the assist that actually doesn't matter and why he's not scoring more than 2 goals per game.

Charts, please and thank you.

Would you move Skunk before Risto?

I wouldn't move either without knowing the return for each or both. But I'd be more inclined to move Risto first, all things considered. Our forward core is like 4 guys and Reinhart is one of them.

It's not everything, but it's interesting. Risto and Montour seems to be a real thing, simply because Montour is a better version of Pilut.

Going on this theory, you gotta wonder if Pilut would make McCabe or Scandella better as well. Unfortunately they're all LDs and I'm unsure if any of them are capable of switching.

I was just reading that


"It’s also interesting to note that Ralph Krueger is sheltering this pairing with offensive zone starts. Natural Stat Trick has them at an 87.05% offensive zone start rate. He’s putting this pairing in a position that helps reduce how often they’re forced to defend."


Imagine that. Using Ristolainen as an offensive defenseman is a good idea
