What else are they going to show?
They just air Sportscentre or Sportsnet Connected all day anyway, unless darts or poker is on.

Then prevent this problem by doing what The Vertical did. Make the show two hours, and start an hour before the deadline. Then you completely stop this unnecessary crap and you can focus on breaking trades.
If they want to waste money paying all of these people to be there all day what difference does it make?
Just don't tune in until an hour before the deadline and you won't know any different.
I don't see why it's a problem unless there's some other sporting event you'd rather be watching that they have the rights to, or unless you want to watch Sportscentre all day.

Kypreos said the Leafs are looking at Sheahan?
Sheahan who's posted a whopping ZERO goals this year?

For real.....what was the appeal of Martin Hanzal anyway, size-aside? Granted, I'm coming from a place of ignorance as someone who never watches Arizona, but the stats show me a career 0.5 ppg player, a career high of 41 points, and a guy who hasn't played more than 65 games in a season since 2010. What am I missing? Is he a shutdown guy?
Yep. Glad I skipped it. It's also very pointless to have the Animation category in there if all it does is guaranteed to go to Disney.

McKegg claimed by Tampa

tampa called up 2 players with everyone healthy and then claimed mckegg
so they are currently 3 players heavy
could be more than boyle on the move
Good at faceoffs. Not good defensively.

So, by end tomorrow, these guys should be playing elsewhere:
- Radim Vrbata, UFA after the season, making only $1m, 46 points this year, should fit somewhere
- Shane Doan, UFA after the season, hasn't had a great season, but the only right thing the Coyotes could do is get him to a contender if one will have him, even if it's for a bag of chips in return.
- Take anything anyone would be willing to give for Connauton and Schenn. No one will want to give up anything for these guys.
After that's done, just wallow in despair as there's nothing else that can be done to save this train wreck of an organization.

So basically he got a king's ransom for Arizona for no other reason than the deadline. Goddamn. So fucking happy Bergevin didn't pull that trigger.
Likewise, back when trades actually happened on the deadline. When it started to die off I eventually knew better and just went to work.
I also don't get the hate. Really what else would be going on during that time? Reruns of the morning recap shows, darts and maybe some pool? Makes sense for them to try to fill the time with hockey "discussion" that people will more tune in to.

I wonder how many prospects Benning will give up for Vrbata.
Over/Under - 2.5
Over/Under - 2.5
If he wasn't injured all the time, he'd probably be a 4- or 5-time 20 goal scorer. But yeah, faceoffs, size, net presence, goals. Great depth player for a cup run, but not worth 1/2/4 picks.

$70-90?
H&M has easy-iron shirts for $19, if you're willing to compromise.
Otherwise, check out Mark's.

Forsberg rightfully claiming his place as 1st star of the week. He's been on fire in February.
Wish he were a bit more consistent and less streaky, but I can't complain too much.

this bishop trade just reminds me of burke's inability to acquire any sort of starting goaltender
he could make good trades but just sucked at evaluating goalies
like look at the return for bishop.. surely your tandem of elliott and johnson should get you to outbid that right?
edit: he's not the GM in Calgary but still the boss

Ewww, fuck being a Burger King S E L L O U T.
Ok, thanks. Those were the numbers I was running in to when I looked at a few retailers.
Marks has some on clearance...four for $100. Good price, but they have pockets, which I don't really like :'-(

How did Patrick O'Sullivan get on the radio?

I don't get it either. He has the personality of a moth. He is easily the worst person on the radio anywhere. By a huge margin.

I know the feels mane. Offering platonic bro hugs of dude brotherhood.
They usually spend several hours daily rambling on about hockey so making deadline day a multi-hour affair isn't really much of a stretch. I think them whining about sitting there talking about nothing is part of the schtick.
Arrooooooooooooo
