I'm so nervous.

 

[Smiley90]

Remember the funny hockey rink picture I posted a while back? Here's an updated version:

:lol at the Shea Weber part :lol

 

[Parch]

More people crappin' on Tortorella as it seems Gaborik wanted out of there real bad.
Rangers have to be a big disappointment this year, and Torts being a fucking asshole is probably the biggest reason.

 

[Merguson]

Something like that did cross my mind lol

Could be that Captials prospect.. Kuznetsov.. plays in Russia.. i can see him being hard to get a hold of.. might delay this trade

 

[KernelPanic]

Heatley is possibly going to be amnesty bought out this summer.

How the mighty F*cking All Stars have fallen ....

i wonder if it's a multi-team trade

 

[BigJonsson]

i wonder if it's a multi-team trade

It's hard enough keeping 1 team quiet, let alone 3

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

Columbus is giving all three of their 1st rounders this season to Washington for Ovechkin.

BELIEVE

 

[Vman]

Heatley is possibly going to be amnesty bought out this summer. He's been a decent player for us, and won't hurt us much next season on the 3rd line, but yes he is overpaid.

Not sure why you guys immediately jump on the Heatley Hater bandwagon but it's cool I guess.

Doubt Heatley will be bought out. Everyone on the team loves him. He still scores big goals and is really great defensively.

He only makes 5 mil next year too.

One of theories floated....Wash has trades Filip Forsberg. If that's the case...return must be huge. #tradecentre

A clue?

 

[DopeyFish]

not unless it's kept to GMs and NHL only because of how impactful it could be

 

[Merguson]

From Dreger. Just a theory but if Nashville is involved, it has to involve Pekka Rinne. Only way I can see it being significant. Assuming Washington is getting the "player" in the deal.. and not Nashville.

Shea Weber can't be traded too.

 

[CrankyJay]

i’d laugh if the sabres ended up making the playoffs now

 

[Cake Boss]

I am guessing something around Forsberg or Kuznewtoff for Josi or Ellis.

 

[Alucard]

Jokinen? Okay, really not sure what to think of the Pens' lineup at this point. Just seems like far too much messing with team chemistry late in the season. Whatever...as long as they get Martin, Letang, and Crosby back, things should be okay. Just worried about these new guys having to learn a new system in a short amount of time.

forsberg (to nash)

for

rinne (to leafs)

for

gardiner and pick? (to washington)

mix and match! bah who am i kidding we haven't done fuck all in years

 

[FUBAR McDangles]

A clue?

Something dumb like Blum or Ellis + 1st/2nd for Forsberg or something.

That wouldn't even be that big of a trade.

 

[Simon Belmont]

i’d laugh if the sabres ended up making the playoffs now

Is such a thing even possible?

 

[demosthenes]

We have enough picks to trade into a good spot with our horde?

Thanks for your patience. Waiting for trade call to take place and for involved players to be notified before making an announcement.

Possible, sure. Improbable though.

We have 2 firsts and 2 '13 seconds and 2 '14 seconds

LOL, I'm wrong..

We have THREE seconds in 2014

“We played (Monday) and there wasn’t (Henrik) Zetterberg, Samuelsson, Bertuzzi, Helm, (Kyle) Quincey,'' Holland said. “If we can get those five guys in the lineup (within) two weeks, I couldn’t do any better moves than (that). And if they don’t come back, it probably doesn’t matter what moves you make.''

Might as well etch this statement into your memory because we hear it exactly the same every year.

Fuck we"ll have to convert him

Informed speculation: Erat for Forsberg, with some other things involved. Erat has a no-trade clause but wants out.

 

[Cagey]

Devils come in last minute and take random superstar, a la Kovalchuk. Lou trolls again. Status quo maintained.

Spoiler

I'll take Steve Sullivan and a 43 defenseman roster and like it

Washington fucking held the deadline hostage for Martin Erat??

 

[lamaroo]

Bahahaha Caps, better be way more to the deal than that if you're going to hype it up like that.

That's.. extremely significant.. yes.... yes it is.. no not really

 

[DopeyFish]

forsberg for erat seems like a ridiculous overpayment

 

[equippedwithtowel]

Well that was disappointing.

 

[ZeroGravity]

forsberg for erat seems like a ridiculous overpayment

I hope this is true to save Tampa the embarrassment for making the worst trade today.

 

[sefskillz]

I HOPE THIS IS TRUE

Martin Erat in NSH has a NTC but belief is he was prepared to waive it to go to the Washington Capitals. #tradecentre

If this is the trade then McPhee truly needs to be fired too. :lol

Erat/Latta for Forsberg. Confirmed

My dick has never been so hard.

THANK YOU POILE!

 

[BigJonsson]

Forsberg for Erat and Lada?
