Talk about booing too. Bettman never received a boo like he did in Philly. Much different than the STH's cute booing every time Chara has the puck in the KBC. Philly fans are the best. They take pride in their home no matter how poopty it is.

In hindsight how many points would Leon have with Lockport and Okposo?
- hubie


I was told those players are good enough to play with Eichel so, probably a lot.

Well, he did pass on Cole. And he probably won't take Lucas either.

looks like Montreal just parlayed Scandella into a 4th and 2nd to St Louis.

Now Botts looks dumb but St Louis needs a d-man

- hehateme


Circumstances dictate need and therefore, compensation.

Everyone wanted Scandella gone and for Botts to do something - nondescript in the want.

But now, he is a dumba$$ as he should have figure in Bouwmeister's heart ailment.

It’s not done yet, but VGK and LA are working to try to finalize a deal that would send defenceman Alec Martinez to the Golden Knights. Most telling sign will be if Martinez is in or out of the Kings’ lineup tonight vs. WPG.

Frustrating seeing how incompetent Botts has been. Can’t believe we are gonna give him a 4th draft.

Seeing him blunder another trade return after maybe the worst trade in recent history unloading Oreilly is inexcusable

if you sit on your hands too long, the girl passes you by

he didn't move scandella for a 4th

he moved scandella so he would have the cap space for frolik


it's like going all in on 9/jack with different suits


trading scandella wasn't the problem, the net gain frolik is/was

Everyone wanted Botterill to do something useful with his pegulacopter full of premium murrancy in the form of defensemen. What we got was Frolik.

And what he got is played

Really? Because they got Tim (frank)ing Schaller and a 2nd round pick for a guy that'll hit close to 25 this year. I don't care that he's a rental.

Advantage how? Everyone on this board wanted him to do SOMETHING. He did something. No one wanted Scandella here so he traded him. I am not sure anyone lamented the move.

Now, because there is a need in St Louis due to a defenseman going down to an unknown heart ailment, St Louis looked to Montreal.

Over and done.

Now, let's go draft Draisatl.

Jeff Skinner for Cliff Pu and a 2nd.

Still one of the biggest W's in GM history.

Did you conveniently leave out Tyler Madden, who is one of the NHLs top 100 prospects
