I could see them making a Mrazek for Rask type deal.

Maybe possibly with Dallas, if they wanna move Bishop? Idk if he's good anymore though.

He’s good when healthy. But 3 years and injury history is not good. Boston seemingly would like to move on from Rask. Mrazek would make a very competent pair with Halak. Boston would save cap for Hoffman. Carolina would add picks or prospects.

Ohh gotcha, when you said a Rask type deal I didn't realize Boston wanted to move on from Rask haha

- Rinosaur

TSN's Frank Seravalli reported last week that, "multiple sources indicate that Bruins GM Don Sweeney has initiated conversations with teams about Rask’s market value over the last number of weeks."

There’s been a lot of talk about them moving him.

JR talked about how they kept space open to resign Simon. Then he turns around and signs a 1 year/700k deal with the Flames.

Either JR was blowing smoke out of his ass, or Simon had absolutely no interest in coming back to Pittsburgh.

- drummer829

That wasn't what he actually said.

Heading into free agency, GMJR said they had an offer on the table for Simon, but they might give that to someone else if he didn't sign by free agency opening. After they signed Jankowski and ERod, he was specifically asked if that closed the door on Simon and he said yes.

0 playoff wins in 2 seasons. It’s a significant deficit.
- Feds91Stammer

Meaningless. The last 2 Stanley Cup champions didn't win a playoff game the year before.

How do you guys grill/cook your burgers?


- Feds91Stammer


I use gas grill on low temp. (300-350) Five minutes per side. I prefer medium doneness, and for thick patties it is spot on. I have been making brisket burgers, which I didn't know existed until last year. They are spectacular burgers!

I’m a pan fry kinda guy. While I do love the char you get on a grilled burger, I think pan frying gets you the juiciest burger.

I grill now. Go 2-2.5 mins on each side over direct 425ish heat. Then go indirect until around internal temp of 160.

I just think grilling in general dries out meat more than pan or oven roasting. I still love a good grilled burger, but pan burgers are so much more rich in flavor.

Maybe if you do it wrong. Imo.
1. Grill
2. Sous Vide with pan sear
3. Pan only

A lot of agents messed up. Duclair turned down 3 x 4.25m apparently.
- Feds91Stammer


I thought he didnt have an agent at all and was negotiating himself. Probably thinks of himself a 5 million dollar man... hard o'le times to be thinking that haha

He didn’t but his seems like the worst mistake so far. But I think lots of agents had the market interest and values wrong.

I think so too. Crazy offseason with still quite a few quality guys not signed yet.

No, trust me, I know how to grill. It's just the nature of grilling. You don't lose juices in a pan the way you do in grilling. Same with steaks.

Sous vide is a different story. You don't lose any moisture, but I've never tried a burger using sous vide, only steak. Actually my favorite thing to do sous vide is fried chicken. I learned it from some video. Cook the chicken first, then batter it, fry at a really high heat just to cook the crust. So good.

I think it’s also dependent on the thickness of the patty. Lately I’ve been doing smash burger thin patties on the cast iron. I love the crust that you get in them.

But I also like a big thick medium rare-medium burger too. Depends on the mood.

Yeah. I'm a smash burger fan. I'm not sure if you make your own blend, but I highly recommend a brisket, chuck, short-rib blend. The right amount of fat to get a great crust no matter the method. Those blends are also better for grills since there's more fat; they'll stay juicier.

Well imo there’s a big difference between a moist burger and a greasy burger. Grilling might not be as greasy but it’s definitely moist.

Burgers are solid Sous vide as long as you don’t vacuum seal too tight and make it like a meat loaf patty

Simon was a good little player to have unfortunately we couldn't get him signed.

Chara to the Pens sounds enticing....so many battles with Geno and Sid.

That’s by far my favorite blend for a burger. The problem around here is it’s hard to get grocery stores to grind that poop up for me. I need to get my own meat grinder but yeah that is the best blend of burger patty by far.
