Fair point. All of it. I still think TK has good value this summer. An entire year with the ability to resign him should be enticing for a team looking to get that final offensive piece. I agree that as the season goes on his value diminishes and the only hope is for a bidding war at the TDL.

TK seems like the perfect Red Wing. I think he would mix well with Larkin, and fits their age group.

They have a bunch of young players and prospects and they have lots of picks too.

Nate Danielson would be a nice return:

Shocking. Who would’ve predicted that? And amazingly it’s just in time for the playoffs.

They learned that from the Lightning but it's just a coincidence.

Hearing Arizona and Atlanta...still no Quebec...be a 40 team league by 2033, and 26 teams will make the 4 month playoffs season.

Thanks, Bill! I did not know that. I (mis-)remembered that Jay Greenberg was the writer who reported Sanguinetti was the pick, but Jay would not have gotten that wrong.

As I remember the Flyers wanting to pick Sanguinettti was talked about during the TV draft show commentators. That’s just my memory but I do remember hearing that story but as Richie Asburn said “never let the facts get in the way of a good story”
Not that is such a good story

Yeah I really wanted him moved at draft last year. Thought value highest and help them bottom out. This draft will be telling. He gets extended even more telling unfortunately. Really hoping they do the right thing

It’s insane. Some franchises losing money. All the broadcast chaos and a watered down product. The NHL being sued. Bettman is in over his head and won’t be able to navigate what’s ahead.

Tiny media market, non-English, Canadian.... triple kiss of death.

Quebec didn't work before when the Canadian dollar was strong, salaries were still pretty low and there wasn't a cap floor to reach. It ain't gonna work now.

The Sens just sold for almost $1B. The Yotes are about to go for $1.3B. So Melnyk and Meruelo not only soaked up revenue sharing all these years, they're also gonna reap huge returns on sale.

And if those weak sister teams are getting sold for that much... what do you think that does for the value of teams like the Leafs, Rangers, Wings and Habs?

The owners couldn't be happier with Gary right now.

This is ridiculous! Why the EFF would the NHL go back to Atlanta? They have already failed in that $hit town twice. Someone has played in too many scrimmages without a helmet.

Not at all...it just means that perhaps Torts isn't the total buffoon that some folks make him out to be on here.

Hyperbole. He's definitely not what you think he is.

Just heard that O.J. passed away yesterday. Guess he never did find the murderer? Shame on him.

He’s a great steward/stooge for the owners.
