The Canucks are just a Brian Dumolin away from acquiring Pittsburgh's entire return in the Jordan Staal trade.

Just got notice that the venue formerly known as Sharks Ice (you don't want to know what it's known as presently), the Sharks' practice facility, will be hosting an Olympic exhibition game between Teams USA and Canada shortly before they depart for Korea. Sure, the talent level just isn't the same, but it'll still be fun as poo poo to watch in a venue that small. Curious how much tickets end up being.

I guess Nashville signed Hairy Z for some reason to a 2-way and put him on waivers for MKE. Also Sam Girard is starting the season in the NHL and sounds like Aberg will be one of the late cuts.

looks like Rangers lines are: Kreider-Zibanejad-Buchnevich Nash-Chytil-Zuccarello Miller-Hayes-Grabner Vesey-Desharnais-Carey IR: Fast Tryout still: Desjardins McDonagh-Shattenkirk Skjei-Smith Staal-TONY D BABY ex: Holden-Kampfer Hank Pavelec i really like that forward group. i doubt chytil stays the whole season, but it'll be interesting to see what he has getting carried by our two best forwards. it would be great if we had another solid top 9 center to slot there if chytil doesn't work out--hopefully desharnais can fill that role--and it'd also be good to have a 4th-line C who can win faceoffs. that would be an incredibly deep group if health over four lines. that defense looks great as long as they're used properly

grack posted:The Canucks traded a useless player and a fourth for a slightly less useless player. I dunno about that Pouliot is pretty terrible. A decidedly slow puck moving defenceman is not a useful player. Also the Canucks have first waiver priority after Colorado picked up a guy so they could've a) claimed Ville Pokka or b) waited until Pouliot was inevitably waived or c) done nothing and stuck with the replacement level defencemen they already had in Pedan, Biega and Wiercioch. None of those scenarios necessitated sacrificing yet another draft pick, but now once again the Canucks no longer have a full complement of picks despite being a rebuilding team going into one of the deepest drafts of the last decade.

nothing official for Florida yet but this looks close to what you would expect for the starting night lines: Huberdeau-Barkov-Dadonov McGinn-Trocheck-Vrbata Brickley-McCann-Bjugstad Haley-MacKenzie-Sceviour Malgin-Tippett Tippett will get at least 9 games, I hope not more. this does not look good. poor Trocheck is gonna be doing some heavy lifting as the season goes on. Dadonov on the top unit is cool and interesting and I hope Malgin gets an extended shot in the top 9 preferrably with Trocheck eventually. full season of Huberdeau-Barkov is gonna be cool regardless of Daddy's presence. that's where my hope for the forwards end Matheson-Ekblad Yandle-Petrovic McCoshen?-Pysyk Weegar they tried a lot of guys with Yandle to figure out what works there, the guy who was cool and good with him sadly got traded to Arizona. Matheson with Ekblad seems pretty firm, McCoshen looks like he is staying which only makes sense if he is also playing. not as good or as deep as they were 2 years ago, not as good or as deep as they were when fully healthy last year. I hope Michael Haley is gone asap. go Lu and Reimer

This season's one of the more interesting rookie classes we've had in a long time. Boeser, Keller, Kyle Connor, Hischier, Patrick, among others, all have a convincing case for why they'll win the Calder this year.

Boeser, Keller, Kyle Connor, Hischier, Patrick, DeBrincat and McAvoy are the only credible pre-season candidates. Obviously that could change and somebody like Mete or Yamamoto could come in and blow us all away, but it's far more likely the rookie scoring leader this year is in that 50-60 points range. Could be the worst class since 11/12.

Aphrodite posted:College guys never win the Calder. Anders Bjork is going to. I actually think he's a dark horse to win it but no one outside of Bruins fans has really paid attention to him at all. They've already said he's cemented a top-6 role through a strong preseason/camp and my man is currently playing on a line with Marchand and Bergeron, and if that experiment doesn't work they're slotting him with Krejci and Pastrnak. He's gonna score some points.

I agree that it's a pretty terrible rookie class this year though. It doesn't help that the top two picks are among the most underwhelming players selected in those positions in league history.

In pre-season he was very obviously overmatched against not-NHL caliber opponents. I don't think he's going to play 60-70 games. The biggest issue is if they're trying to get him to change sides. If he needs to play on the offside to make the NHL with the Sens, his transition is going to take longer.

its fine the Bruins famously do better in the later rounds of the draft anyway!!! 2005 - Sobotka (4th) 2006 - Lucic, Marchand (2nd, 3rd) 2007 - ok not this one, at least Tommy Cross is still with the team I guess 2008 - nevermind 2009 - ok nevermind 2010 - Ryan Spooner and Zane McIntyre...errrr 2011 - nevermind 2012 - nevermind 2013 - Cehlarik is cool I guess

Porty still hasn't posted lines so I'm gonna take a shot at opening night lines: Atkinson-Wennberg-Panarin PLD-Dubinsky-Bjorkstrand Calvert-Foligno-Anderson Milano-Sedlak-Dalpe Extra: Hannikainen IR: Jenner, Schroeder, Vigneault Werenski-Jones JMFJ-Savard Murray-Carlsson Extras: Harrington, Nutivaara  Korpisalo drat, and I thought Columbus did a good job dumping first rounders for a while.

I'll even include the second pick to show how badly Lou hosed up: 2005: Bergfors/Frazee 2006: Corrente/Vasunyov 2007: Hoeffel/N.Palmieri 2008: Tedenby/Burlon 2009: Josefson/Gelinas 2010: Merrill/Wedgewood 2011: Larsson/Coleman 2012: Matteau/Severson 2013: Santini/Kujawanski So like two good d-men, one of which is still with the team. Granted, Tedenby became Kovalchuk, and Larsson became Hall. a false posted:barzal is going to win the calder. peter chiarelli is a real idiot T-Bone fucked around with this message at 22:54 on Oct 3, 2017 |

Au revoir, Pouliot - you were never good. 2 goals in 67 career NHL games, the same number of goals that Martin Erat scored for the Capitals after being traded for Filip Forsberg who is the player Shero should have picked instead of Derrick Pouliot.
