Simmonds is missing from NJD practice. He's about as washed up as washed up gets, but I could see Lou taking a shot on him if he's cheap.

Hmm. Maybe take a chance to see if he can snap out of his funk. Potentially better than Kuhnackl or Johnston...

I don't know what else we can deal, unless he's either moving only minor leaguers/prospects or someone off the roster. Saw some speculation that another random 1 game callup for Ladd may have been a showcase to prove he can still play in the NHL? No idea, but can't trade anymore picks now that we don't have a 1st or 2nd this year or a 2nd next year.

Also:

#Isles are running out of futures to make any other moves, also at 49 contracts with Pageau addition. Still have cap space to add (depth winger?), but would likely need a contract going out.

Context was he hated the trade but did not want to say why

He thought we should have added the zamboni driver to the deal as an ebug

They've been playing real well lately. I think they've taken 5 of the last 6 and they're only 6pts back of the playoffs. Not really much of an addition....but that's probably the answer as to "why"

Probably not, no. Still can't believe FLA is 2pts back of a playoff spot with a game in hand and they traded Trocheck for poop

They have a ton of holes in their line up and their goaltending is pretty terrible.

This makes me super happy yet a little nervous. Hopefully it’s not absurd.

Well the rumor was that his camp was looking for around 5x5. I can live with that, but that tells you that someone is going bye-bye this offseason then.
