Couturier, Simmonds, Read and a 1st for Nash
 
Thiessen starting today in his first NHL game, I'm excited. He looked good in the preseason games he played, I'm hoping he plays his way into being our new backup. Or he could be a disaster and cost us a win against an easy team like CBJ.

I'm hoping that even if he sucks, we'll have enough scoring like yesterday to make it over the hump.

The Rangers will get most of their stuff done today, they play tomorrow night. Whether that be Nash or depth defenseman who knows, but I expect this is their shopping day.

Some teams have interest in Colby Armstrong according to Sportsnet's Daren Millard. We must as well trade him if there's an offer. He's healthy but he's a healthy scratch. Up until Saturday's game but I just get the idea that was a showcase.

Oh didn't even know that.

Yeah definitely if another team is offering something pretty good deal him. It'd suck to see him go though (I'm saying that more for how awesome he'd probably be on 24/7)

Oh thank god, Ericsson broke his wrist tonight, out a month. Now Kindl/Commodore can get in the line up like they should've been in the first place. But now Holland will waste a trade for another stupid D-Man instead of getting a scoring forward.
Click to expand...

I'm slowly starting to get extremely pissed off at this team for not caring when Datsyuk is out, I don't care if we play great when he is in, with all of the talent we have, you don't just keel over when your top guy is out, you should buckle down harder and actually play hockey. We need another top 6 guy who can provide that energy or spark to the team that Datsyuk brings, and we need it now or our playoffs will be short again this year and we will fall to 4th or 5th place with the way we are playing. Unbelievable this team can be with him out of the lineup.

You're in luck my friend, we have a certain Tomas Kaberle available to trade.

What do they need to get over the hump? A legit superstar forward?

Like Razor said, we haven't had a proper #1 centre in YEARS. I love Plekanec, but he is a #2 centre forced to play at #1 on a team with shitty centre depth.

Grigorenko would be that guy we've been looking for.
 
Kave_Man said:
Disagree. As of now Florida/Washington/Toronto have played like complete crap the last few weeks. Doesn't look like any of these teams may even get to 90 points as it is now.

Winnipeg has been playing great, but they are at home. Looks like their last 18/19 games are split home and away equally so what will decide the playoffs for them will be how they do in the away games.



Wow.

Really? Fire Burke for not making the playoffs this year? That's some delusional thinking right there man. Didn't know just squeaking into 8th is the standard here to decide on his job.



I think you forget how terrible Gustavsson was during that stretch as well and why they even put Scrivens out there.



Jeff Finger.

I notice how you didn't say anything about saving Wilson here... :D

Yeah Grigorenko is a good prospect with true #1 centre potential, any prospects in our system now have potential to be 3rd line centres. (Leblanc, Bournival, Geoffrion, White).
Eller and Desharnais are pretty good but they seem like 2nd line centres.
 
Urghhh a fucking 2nd rounder?

How many fucking 2nd rounders do you have to give up Murray? Jesus christ.

I hope Lehner doesnt get too pissed off about this and jets to Sweden.

Cause even I can see he needs to go. But again he's not going to leave until the end of the season. So I don't even see a point of calling for it until after the season is over anyways.

But unlike a lot of people I don't know if you just put Dallas Eakins in the position. I don't know how well a rookie head coach would do in this market to be honest.
 
How many NHL games has Bishop played so far this year? Has to play 17 or else he's a UFA this summer. Would Sens intend on giving him those games this year?

I don't think he has any does he? Wasn't it just Halak and Elliot playing this year?

He was apparently signed to an extension for next year before being traded:
Bob McKenzie ‏ @TSNBobMcKenzie
Before trading G Ben Bishop to OTT for a 2013 2nd rd pick, STL signed him to a one-year, one-way contract. #TradeCentre #tsn

St. Louis signed him to a 1-year, 1-way extension before they traded him to us.

He may play that much, Auld fucking sucks and Lehner is only 20 years old, he's not ready.

Really depends on how long Anderson is out for, if he was coming back anytime soon I doubt we'd have made this trade.

We need depth in goal, look at the shitstorm that erupted after Anderson went down. Lehner needs more games in the AHL, he'll play 15-20 games in goal behind Andesron as a backup, not enough to develop him.

We have the worst depth in goaltending in the NHL, not anymore.
 
Cake Boss said:
Oh hes signed an extention, thats not bad. Good deal for both teams.

Yay goaltending depth, never had that in this organization ever.
Click to expand...

Exactly.

We'd probably need to use a 2nd rounder to draft someone like Bishop, except he's ready for NHL action right now, not 5 years from now.
 
Nucks/Stars in a couple hours. Hoping we can keep the domination going.

Funniest thing about it is that he's constantly acting like a lifelong Avs fan, which is weird but whatever, but refuses to admit that he's got two teams.

When have I ever acted like a lifelong? If I really wanted two teams so bad like you're suggesting, don't you think I could pick someone better than the avs?

Wonder if Sherman has any plans today, we've still got some dead weight to ship off. Mainly McLeod. Anyone have needs for a mediocre 4th line energy guy?
Click to expand...

Apprently the sens scouted the Avs team 4 times in the past week and have scouted their AHL team. The Avs also scouted the sens team last night and a couple of times last week.

Rumors maybe it has to do with David Jones and maybe one of the Avs D prospects since we are little on it since the Rundblad trade.
 
Oooh nvm, should be a blowout.
