Columbus- likely in that "buyer, but also selling stuff" mode. The next two games (@PHI, CHI) will be telling. Both conceivably should be winnable. In-season acquisitions to this point- Jussi Jokinen (waivers), Nathan Gerbe (UFA), Jeff Zatkoff (trade), Taylor Chorney (waivers) Incoming Mail: CBJ are said to be in on Derick Brassard (Friedman says the asking price may be too high), Artem Anisimov (NMC), and Mark Letestu, who are...all centers and former Jackets, huh, that's fun. TSN says they could be in the Rick Nash Sweepstakes, but I don't see that happening unless it's a bargain. Larry Brooks says they might be after Ryan McDonagh, too. Outbox: Jack Johnson/JMFJ/  requested a trade which has nothing to do with him not liking Columbus/Torts, but rather setting himself up for his next contract because of that one time his parents decided to reward themselves for their son being a millionaire and left him with less than $50,000 in assets and a $246,000 "allowance" on a $5M contract because of settlements related to predatory loans they took out. Apparently, somebody's offering a late 1st, so that'd have to be somebody like Tampa/Boston/Washington (all rumored). CBJ asking price is apparently that first or a couple of picks, but nothing less than a single 2nd.Matt Calvert (useful bottom six forward who can play in most situations) and Boone Jenner (one-time 30 goal scorer; that time is not now) could also be available. (Please, Jarmo, trade Ryan Murray before he gets hurt again.) Jarmo Kekalainen's Mystery Box: Jarmo has a penchant for "where the hell did that come from?" trades in his time here which, on the surface, make you kind of want to service him out of appreciation...and most of them have worked. The aforementioned Brassard+Derek Dorsett+John Moore+pick for Marian Gaborik, RJ Umberger for Scott Hartnell, the aforementioned Anisimov+stuff for Brandon Saad, the aforementioned Saad+Anton Forsberg+pick for Artemi Panarin+Tyler Motte+pick. I wouldn't be surprised to see a Jarmo Special at all. CBJSprague24 fucked around with this message at 16:55 on Feb 22, 2018 |

i am the bird posted:I want a weird longshot deal where an upcoming team or bubble team that’s not quite a top tier contender makes a play for EK. Maybe you get EK for a push this year while knowing you get another playoffs and a full year to convince him to stay. I know he has to waive his NTC, which is the big wrinkle, but it might be the only way that Ottawa gets the package they’re looking for because the top teams might not have the prospect assets to give up and won’t want to lose a roster player for the upcoming run.

i am the bird posted:That’d be a dope defense. I’d have to pull my CBJ jersey out of the closet. Karlsson-McDonagh Jones-Werenski Savard-Kukan or Nutsack or somebody like that. Jarmo's gonna do the reverse of what they thought would work in 2015-16 in that "we're cool with our D, our forwards will score all the goals and Bob will stop all the goals". e- ThinkTank posted:What happened to Boone Jenner? He was a player I kinda liked a few years ago (although I'm always wary of guys who get way more goals than assists), but he seems to have just fallen off the table. Is he just lost in the shuffle in Columbus or what that 30 goal season a fluke? I think everybody thought the 30 goal season was a fluke, but that he'd be good for 15-20 on average. He's just sort of disappeared this year; maybe not playing poorly, but just sort of there. CBJSprague24 fucked around with this message at 17:12 on Feb 22, 2018 |

Wh--...how...why WHY WOULD YOU BAIL ONE OF THE BEST TEAMS IN THE LEAGUE OUT? WHY WOULD YOU SAVE THE PENGUINS FROM THEMSELVES?  The Penguins are the rich kids at school who get everything they want while the plebes scrape to get by and other people apologize for their mistakes and I've never wanted to see them lose more and yes, I'm bitter, why do you ask?

Doesn't have the style points of JR's deal, but the full deal is Nashville trades Pontus Aberg to Edmonton for Mark Letestu. Nashville then trades Letestu to Columbus for a 4th.
