Latest rumors on Sirius/XM radio yesterday had Giroux replacing Kadri in Colorado once Kadri signs on with the Flyers. That's right, they think the Flyers are going after Kadri cause he is a Torts kind of guy! I like it, they might not win, but Torts will want a team full of pissssss and vinegar! Thanks!

Going to have to do some serious cap dumping for that and to fill out the roster.

I expect tk or provy maybe sanheim moved before free agency starts. Possibly at draft. To make room for jg contract.

No one probably touching poopty Jvr deal now. Move him at deadline for peanuts

Unless he has a plan to divert the Ambulance over the border.
Dude should just go over to Ukraine in his goalie gear and then just surrender.

IMO, the only way I could see any of them dealt is for DeBrincat. Outside of that, I just don't see it. Ellis's career could really be over. York is unproven. Take away Sanheim or Provy and the top 4 gets really thin. Farabee is on the shelf, may be TK makes a little more sense in a trade then a Dman to make room for DeBrincat or Johnny Hockey.

With the Kings feeling pressure now to deal some of its future assets for current players, I really wouldn’t mind a trade involving TK or Sandheim or Provy where Brandt Clarke comes back. LA needs top 4 LHD. I read some stuff out of LA last summer that they had interest in Sandheim. Maybe this could happen.

JVR is on his final year. We can eat money and move him for value or someone will trade for him knowing they can eat money and move him for value at the deadline lol.

LA has a bright future with all of their prospects. They should just be patient imo.

I would love Sanheim in Detroit but he would have to be extended to be worth it and not sure what the Wings would be willing to give up. Wings could use a LHD and the only one on the UFA market worth anything to me is Zadorov but i would pair him with Hronek not Seider. Sanheim would make a good partner for Seider.

Sanheim - Seider
Zadorov - Hronek
Edvinsson - Lindstrom

Now that would be the best defense the Wings have iced since Lidstrom retired.

I really have no idea what to expect from this draft. Cutter is such a CF/Flyers pick tho. Be annoying if they passed on more talented players to take what amounts to a "safe" winger.

Oh and the vid was Brad Lambert. Guy just flies. Nazar is a good skater too tho.

- Tomahawk


Gotcha on Lambert vid. Seems like this draft is more of a crapshoot than they usually are. Sometimes I think it's akin to throwing darts at a listing of players (save for the top superstars that are obvious) and getting lucky to see who turns out in a few years. I also think that a player's draft position gets them more opportunities to prove themselves in the NHL than those who were late drafts may get. Consider if Patrick had been drafted 43rd OA he probably never would have seen the ice at the NHL level the way he played. But, they were extremely patient with him more so than any other players would have gotten with the team.

Davidson wants 1st round picks and younger prospects on their ELC's. The word around Chicago is that 24 year old Debrincat will be 29 or 30 by the time the team is relevant. Don't think a 25 year old Konecny fits the time frame either.

Honestly, this team cannot catch a break, not at all! They draft a guy that could be the next big goalie in the NHL and the pipeline is cut off. Can't say I didn't see this coming though.

He won't be sent there for the very reason that it'll be easier for him to defect and seek asylum from there than it would if he's forcibly kept in Russia.

They are going into a rebuild. Why does a 25 year old winger interest them? All while giving up a younger better winger. Doesn’t seem like a move a team rebuilding would make. Excluding the Flyers of course.

Amazing you cant see the diff why his value would be diff now vs 7 months from now. Actually it isn't amazing
- hello it's me 2050

You could tell me but you won’t because you have no idea how a conversation works. I’m not an NHL general manager, so if you know how the market of swapping NHL players works, I’m all ears.

How brave does one have to be to call someone Shemp? No clock back into work. The line is getting bigger at the deli counter.
- hello it's me 2050

If you called me anything in person, you’re not walking away the same way you walked up to me, that’s if you’d be able to walk at all. Plus it’s a holiday weekend, it’s a little strange you know how the hockey market works but no idea how the work world works.

Shemp you are a dope.

Figured even a simpleton like yourself can figure out why his value now compared to 6 month from now would be different. No need to explain as you probably wouldn't comprehend it.

You would do absolutely nothing. Next time I am in Flint I will give you a shout. Now back to work and finish your shift. Do you get time and a half for a holiday weekend?

What makes you so sure exactly as to what I would or wouldn’t do? This is interesting to me.

Would his value go up or down? Please explain, I’d love to hear this.

Edvinsson looks like a future top 4 and likely 1st pair dman. I’ve read that he bulked up this year. But do you really think he’ll be up this year?

Since you don’t have a blogger yet, do you have any info on Cossa’s progress?
