Dreger and other hockey talking heads are saying that "surprising" players could be put on waivers because of the cap, we'll see what happens...

the thing is, Habs have no cap space. if they claim a dman, they'll have to waive a forward to make room.
so waive Armia or Byron to claim a RD?
seems unlikely.

this management team seems to be creative and likes to think outside the box, they might find ways to create space if needed.

good afternoon, canada.

trading a forward (or 2!) for a dman seems way more likely. they still have some time.

I guess, although they don't have a ton of interesting forwards to trade way, most are either keepers or are just making too much money for what they bring. but again, they could always get creative...

well, they could always trade a crap forward for a crap dman. that's certainly the most likely scenario lol

'Murica, good afternoon.

apparently Jeff Petry was saying the difference in PIT is that they're going for the cup, they don't want to just make the playoffs.

I get that, but it kind of (frank)ing helps when you have guys like Crosby, Malkin and Letang on the roster lol.

oh I don't mind the fall either, the foliage is nice, and the weather isn't all that bad. but it's also a precursor to a poop ton of snow, and -20F temperatures...

i get it. it's been quite a few years since we've had a winter where it snowed a lot but i do remember the snow fatigue when storms would come before the old one melted over and over. snow on the ground for 6 weeks straight does suck. it definitely gets old after a while.
