I think he meant he heard about it from a source. Radio guys in Montreal are vouching for him and saying there's legit beef there.

Lol well he certainly didn't tone it down for that bench minor there.

 

[lamaroo]

Damn PK, tone it down.

 

[Quick]

TONE IT DOWN PK

 

[MultiJhonny]

Now do the other MacDonald

 

[Red_Man]

What other star in the NHL gets a bench minor for chirping?

Unreal

Leafs roster's going to get a massive overhaul this off-season. Lou's almost got a blank slate to work with.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

First time I'm hearing this, but a guy from Boston (Jimmy Murphy) reportedly got a hold of a text Patches sent to Subban after the recent Therrien - Subban incident telling him to "tone it down" and he's also reporting that that's a pretty large gap between the two in the room.

Time to trade Pacioretty to the Rangers then

McCarron looks like a stud.

Habs-GAF please be excited.

I'm very Excited

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Maximum power for the Leafs tank!

NO PITY POINT!

 

[Chris R]

Come on Avs, keep the lead

What a pass from the General

Time to trade Pacioretty to the Rangers then

Pacioretty and number one centre DD to the Isles for Tavares. I heard he always wanted to play for the LeafsHabs.

 

[Kave_Man]

Guys spell his name right.

Cox not Cocks or say Damien Cocks. I only say this because we have Babcock so hell if I know if you're giving him a nickname or not.

Now I doubt the rumour.

The #Sens have acquired forwards Jason Akeson and Phil Varone, defenceman Jerome Gauthier-Leduc and a conditional draft pick from Buffalo.

 

[TheExecutive]

Holy shit at this pp Avs...

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Pacioretty and number one centre DD to the Isles for Tavares. I heard he always wanted to play for the LeafsHabs.

I think Tavares would be a better captain than Pacioretty.

Just Saying

traaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaades

It's Prince and Weridcock isn't it?

 

[lamaroo]

Quick somebody analyse that celebration with PK/Max

 

[Yawnier]

traaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaades

All-bran Murray probably traded Weirddick for a 6th rounder

 

[ElephantShell]

When Montreal wins this game they will only be 5 points out of the playoffs.

 

[HadesGigas]

The Buffalo Sabres today announced the team has acquired forwards Alex Guptill, Eric O’Dell and Cole Schneider, as well as defenseman Michael Sdao, from the Ottawa Senators in exchange for forwards Jason Akeson and Phil Varone and defenseman Jerome Leduc.

Well that sure is a lot of names I don't know.

[Socreges]

Wouldn't mind an explanation of how this works myself, to be honest.

I actually edited it into my first post afterwards:

So apparently because of that CBA loophole Demko becomes a UFA after his last year of college hockey. Unless he chooses to leave school this summer and sign with the Canucks. But why wouldn't he just finish his degree at which point he goes from 1 option to 30.



Can someone explain this loophole and why it applies for some and not others? Same reason Oilers got Schultz and the Wild got Reilly, IIRC.

Edit - I guess it's because the Canucks have 3 years to sign him from the date of the draft, but with college players they don't need to sign in that time frame as they're still in school.... unless they felt waiting would be risky due to injury... But with college students they'd have a career waiting anyhow...

Would be nice if someone could confirm/correct, though. Not too sure how it works.

So, drafted players would normally be stupid to wait the 3 years until they become a UFA (ie, the draft team loses the player's rights at that point) because they wouldn't have a pro team to play for after junior. But of course college players CAN'T sign until they're done with their school (NCAA rules), which means they occasionally stay in school long enough to exhaust the 3-year 'rights' period and can go from college to whichever team they want.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

LOL CONDO.

That was Funny with Condon on the Bagpipes

 

[DopeyFish]

I don't know a single one of those players traded lol

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

MAXIMUM POWER FOR THE TANK!

WHO?

 

[lamaroo]

Now he shows up

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Patches is Berniers kryptonite

Nah. Shots on goal are his kryptonite.

 

[Quick]

Habs fans with the ole.

lol comeonson.gif

 

[dr.rocktopus]

Nah. Shots on goal are his kryptonite.

but the Reimer trade was supposed to give him the power of the yellow sun

 

[Red_Man]

That will be 4-1-1 without Desharnais now?

How weird. Who could have predicted the team playing better without their #1 center?

 

[zroid]

lol I like how this Sens trade is so inconsequential that their PR department is breaking it

 

[HadesGigas]

Should Schneider play three NHL games for the Sabres this season, the #Sens will receive Buffalo’s 7th-round pick in the 2016 draft.

How much of a scrub is this guy that the condition is THREE nhl games?

 

[cube444]

When Montreal wins this game they will only be 5 points out of the playoffs.

And earlier today I told you guys Rutherford would trade for Shultz. Now I'm telling you that the Habs are done and won't be making the playoffs.

The team is garbage.

 

[yyzjohn]

I knew Jonathan "Mandela" Bernier would pull through tonight.

 

[lamaroo]

lol I like how this Sens trade is so inconsequential that their PR department is breaking it

Wonder why this trade was made. Somebody do the math, is Melnyk saving money?

 

[Yawnier]

This is going to be a big loss for the tank. With all those games in hand the leafs have on the oilers, BJs, sabres, etc. and will put a 13 point gap between the laffs and habs.

 

[Red_Man]

I knew Jonathan "Mandela" Bernier would pull through tonight.

We really should have countered with Scrivens, at least the Leafs would be within a goal from tying by now

 

[Xeteh]

Comeau with the baseball slide save.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I can't wait for the future Habs and Leafs Games.


Big Mac vs Nylander

Scherbak vs Leipsic

Juulsen vs Zaitsev

Double check those numbers. #BadSource
