McDavid was hungover from partying too much after putting Crosby in his place.

Oilers need a goalie, Dallas has too many goalies, both have cap issues, Adams should see an opportunity there.

Also call the owner of The canucks not Benning, see what’s out there.

So of you aren’t taking a goalie from Dallas, what are you taking form the oilers?

Might also need scraps from Dallas to help with cap room…

Blackhawks aren’t sending Reichel either.

That would have been such a fun German team to watch.

Oh well.

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.

Jack Eichel has been cleared to do everything but contact, according to @Buccigross.

Eichel is skating and rehabbing in North Carolina. Expected to join the Golden Knights in Vegas in around 3 weeks, per @emilymkaplan.

Prediction -

He plays starting in January and ends up with more points in the last 40-ish games than any Sabre does for the entire season

Yeah probably, the Sabres were never winning the trade. It is what it is is the mantra for this team.

People are knocking Dahlin but he is 1 point of leading the team in scoring and helps drive the offense. Sure defensively he needs to improve but he is only 21.

When he is 23, 24, 25 he will be getting 60-80 points a season

Here is the translated quote from the article about Peterka and Reichel:


“John-Jason Peterka (Rochester Americans) and Lukas Reichel (Rockford IceHogs) do not join the U20 national team after consultation with the DEB. Both strikers are currently convincing with strong performances in the AHL and thus hope for the leap into the NHL.”

he has 2 less points 5 on 5 this year then all of last year
on pace for 53 points this year

playing more minutes against top lines

on a really bad team

he has improved as much as tage or asplund this year if not more

They're better off playing against men in the AHL IMO

Its clear he hasn't physically matured yet. We all hoped he would have but he hasn't. Sooner or later his body will fill out.

I have no experience in physical training so when I say I hope he gets stronger its only from the eye test that he is getting muscled off the puck. He plays the puck more than he should play the body.

Dahlin puts things together he could easy score 20 and get 80 points in this league.

Its tough to gauge where Dahlin will land when he reaches his peak. He could be the best in the NHL or could turn out to be like Carlsson, Gonchar or Karlsson a top point producer with defensive flaws but I am hoping more like Lidstrom or Neidermayer.

I am not taking sides but I read that she lied about still being pregnant to Kane and carried it on for months even though she had an abortion.

She also lied about betting on Sharks games since the NHL found no evidence of that happening.

They both seem like nut jobs both, I don't think its one sided. You have to have some serious issues to carry on a pregnancy for months even though you had an abortion.

Not to beat E. Kane knowing who he is for child custody when the mother usually wins must mean the courts do not see her as a stable person. It definitely gives credence to Kane if the judge sides with him.


(No I don't hate women, I am not against women, Kane has a lot of issues so its surprising she didn't get awarded so she must have some serious mental health issues)

Ehlers and Bjorkstrand didn’t suffer by going for one more run with Denmark back in the day.
