No, not what I'm saying.
There are those on this board who advocated for Matt friggin Murray here with his .890 Sv% and $5.1m contract to win a couple games more...then female dog for 2 more seasons

That's completely different than trading for Theordore; a very good RhD on an absolutely great contract for 4 years who will lead a young D Corp during that time.

You're smart enough to know the difference

Would be very unusual for that type of player to be available to us during the season.

They lost 7 quality vets from last season, all for futures or nothing (+Tuch). If they wanted to acquire NHL players, they had their opportunity. They also passed on the opportunity to simply extend their own guys. Their plan here is obvious.

Yes it would, but they are gonna have to clear some money at some point to bring players of LTIR and Theodore has no clauses and they have defenseman that can take his spot.

I don't know, it was already said that Hutton was signed and Whitecloud was extended at the time of the Eichel trade for a reason but then Whitecloud and Martinez got hurt.

I look forward to the days when we hope other teams take an L and we move up in the standings instead of hoping the teams below us win

What a year so far for him. Be funny if he turns out to be the better piece in the Rhino deal.

this was before the shutout tonight


Sophomore goalie Devon Levi earned his
NCAA-leading five shutout in just his 13th career
game on Nov. 19 at Boston University. He was
named the Pro Ambitions Rookie of the Week for
the third time this season on Monday and the Pro
Ambitions Rookie of the Month for the second time
this year on Thursday.
• He is now tied for the team record for shutouts
in a season with former Huskies goaltenders Chris
Rawlings (2010-11) and Keni Gibson (2003-04). Levi
is also tied for fifth on the all-time Northeastern leaderboard for shutouts in a career.
• Levi is the first Northeastern goalie to have backto-back shutouts to start a career. His 1.43 GAA is
good for sixth in the country and second in Hockey
East, while his .950 save percentage is second in
the nation.
• The last NU goaltender to have five or more shutouts was Cayden Primeau, who finished with eight
in his 70-game career. It took him 34 starts to reach
five, while Levi achieved the feat in just 13 games.

The only Canadian studies in high school down here was the girl from Quebec that used to come visit her grandparents for Christmas and summertime.

Well, fwiw, Luongo was the voice in Zito’s ear that he should pick Levi. Seems the kid has his head on right, to go along with his skills.
