Schenn, Couturier, and picks?

Our GM said the phones are already ringing a lot and at there could be a lot of trades.
Not a reference to that, no. Just a joke since plenty of players have gotten injured while cooking, but none during an All-Star game (actually, DiPietro got injured during the skills comp but that's DiPietro).
What'd she do?

Always know shit has gone down when I wake up to 8+ new pages on NHLgaf...
You're always welcome back at Anaheim, Burkie! We've had it with Barstool Bob.
AND THANK FUCK FOR NO MORE DUCKS FLEECINGS
Knew it was Manics/Forza since day three... Way too inconsistent and cares way too much about what his dad thinks.
The name "Beez" even sounds like an account name that a 60 year old pedo would use in a kids chatroom to try and sound "young" and "hip"... Ohhh I'll stick a Z at the end instead of an S, that's cool!
... And then I'll just use a picture of a bee from Microsoft Clipart! Genius!

She was actually cooking, since the timing was so good I figured that you found it on the web somewhere.

Keep hitting the button rapidly. That's how I feel about the pending Luongo fleecing by the Canucks.

Between the AHL trades, teams with 6 or 8 d-men, too many centers etc etc... We'll see a lot of that stuff. Considering camp for most teams will start Sunday or Monday I expect them to happen fast.

Pshaw, they were practically brothers once.
Nonis isn't stupid. And multiple times during the press conference he indicated that he wouldn't be emptying the pool for a shot at fast success.
But given Nonis' opinion of Luongo, the possibility that he's being pressured by MLSE to win now and with Philly maybe driving up the price... I'm a bit more optimistic that Bozak+4th won't be a reality.

At this point, I just want the gong show over. Let's see the damage either way.

lol, fuck off. He's Potsie to Fonzy. Burke was the main instigator. He's the reason anything happened.

Luongo trade reaction will be just like the lockout ending. Both sides will claim victory while most will just be glad the drama's over.
That's what I get for being absolute.
I just think it's so unlikely that no team would prevent their players from participating. There are worse dangers that aren't stipulated in contracts.

"Is this the first time Bell/Rogers have let someone out of their contract early?"

I wish they would buy me out or fire me *grumble* I'm stuck with them for another 10 months then it's Mobilicity or Wind for me.

I racked up a 1k phone bill with Rogers and left the country.
I don't think I'm allowed back in anymore.

I agree for the most part. I just hate the ASG and I think my opinion of it was cemented when that happened.. so meh I'm just bitter.
I do actually like the skills competition, but the ASG? Worthless.

Use Brzygalov and Luongo this year and buyout the underperforming one in the offseason?
Philly wants everyone.
Acquire all players, win cup by default.
Late-90s Rangers all over again!

Hey Heretic...
Why does Smith-Pelly play terrible hockey lately? Is it because the Admirals are playing terribly or what? Have any idea? Thoughts? Favourite position to be massaged in? Anything more comfortable you can slip on?

You're too good to me, Red_Man! :'(Flyers might get Luongo and buy out Bryz?
Leafs sign Bryz to long term deal 5 million for 5 years.
I would cry so many tears of joy if this happened.
I'm listening to a segment from TSN raido with Pierre Mccguire from yesterday, and he had some interesting / funny things to say:
- On Subban he said from his time during the GM interview process he knows that Habs management knows how valuable Subban is and he is their highest priority, and also says that he talks to Subban regularly and he knows that there is no other place he wants to play. Good news there
- on Lou, he said the Canucks want to move him more for a cap dump rather then focusing on getting picks / prospects coming back, not that surprising
- Radio guy asked him about Brian Burke and he said "There's a lot of pressure for him to get a #1 center and a #1 goalie, and he's running out of time to get it done" :lol

#1 centers don't grow on trees, there's no one he could realistically get. Besides Burke had a #1 centre, his name is Tyler Seguin.
I think any team that has a #1 center, drafted them not traded them.
Burke seemed out of touch with the current NHL, he thought you could trade or sign any missing pieces you need. Don't work that way anymore.
Or you can pick Rielly over Grigorenko.

they best just rename it
BECAUSE I WANT TO EAT MORE PIZZA PIZZA HOT DOGS THEYRE SO DELICIOUS AHHHH
Jordan Staal, Brad Richards (was a free agent), and Mike Richards are the recent ones, but for the most part you're definitely right.
the question you should ask
should you potentially compromise the quality of a pick you're getting for the sake of filling a hole in which may or may not be open in 4 years when said pick may or may not be ready?
getting the best player available is usually a better proposition

Exactly. The Flyers put in due diligence on everybody.
That said, there's no way he's coming here this season.
Solo offers a similar deal for a better price.
they may do a 3-way trade
luongo to philly for whoever
bryzgalov to toronto for a 7th rounder

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
Might as well post this in the "pics that give you feels" thread. Truly a dark day for our sport.

Really though... Double-B was instrumental in building this current Bruins team, and for that, I will always respect him.
Mmmmmm

True, but I have high hopes for Hamilton.

J.Staal and M.Richards were drafted by their respective clubs. Brad Richards was the only FA.
Yes the other two were on the market and Burke failed in getting them (although Staal would only play with his brother and wouldn't resign anywhere else).
Oh no I agree, you always draft the best player available.
