Kadri 3rd star of the week 
Looks like they are going for another stanley cup run.

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
EARTHSHAKING TRADE -- Eklund

Wonder what the Sharks got.
Hard to argue with the three stars but Schneider only went 4-0-0 with one shutout and a 1.25 GAA.

nooooooooooooooo
I always wanted him on the Sens.
I hope they gave up a good prospect for him.

So what'd Douglas Murray do exactly to earn a trade?
At least he won't be playing against us tonight.

Kyper think 2 2nds or a 2nd and 3rd

Trade deadline trades are expensive. Everyone is pretty much getting fleeced(unless you win the Cup that year).
Sounds about as bad as the Flyers trade for Kubina last year.

Pens are in Bust or Nope mode.
Sharks obviously aren't expecting much from this season. Shame.

Slow, can't pass, just not as good as he was before. Honestly this is addition by subtraction, now we can actually play Braun and Demers.
I hope Doug has success in Pitt though. Since we're not doing shit this year I'll be cheering for him in the playoffs.
Holy shit, TWO second round picks? Way more than I expected.
I hope Montreal destroys them again in the second round.

So that means San Jose is throwing in the towel this year if they are selling ?
The 2nd round?
Pretty much. I expect Clowe and Boyle to go as well.
I could see them trying to get some depth on defense. Getting someone that is at least good enough to be paired with Dion instead of the Holzers and Kostkas of the world.
They sold nothing of value

If anything, hopefully somebody has an injured defensemen and needs to pick up someone like Liles or Kostka. That's the most I can see happening before the draft.
Does this mean Briere is worth a first to some team? God I hope so.

Even better. Even better.

Paul Gaustad went for a first, so you'd have to think so.

So are Flyers fans just overreacting about how bad Briere is? I mean, he's having a shitty year but does it call for getting rid of him? Again, haven't been paying as much attention to the rest of the league as I wish I could so I'm a little in the dark

I hope we stop winning so badly. Making it into the playoffs for an early round exit would be dumb when we could sell Ribeiro and get a great return.
Paul Gaustad wasnt a 35 year old regressing player with a 6.5M cap hit next year in a league where the cap is going down and with a NTC.
Nash, Stralman, and Miller all did not take part in practice today. It was not an optional practice. Hopefully there's nothing to it.
Kreider was still with Richards and Gaborik was still with Boyle during practice, though, so Gaborik's demotion to the third line might be permanent for the time being.

Briere's untradeable. If he was a pending UFA he'd make a decent rental but he has two more years at $6.5M, plus his best days are behind him. If a team needed him to reach the cap floor they'd give up a fourth at best.
I find it hard to believe the Caps would trade Ribeiro after they traded Eakin and a 2nd to get him. Random tidbit: his middle name is Tavares.

There's no room for him at center and he's terrible on the wing, (Schenn & Simmonds did MUCH better last night playing with Gagne) and if he's not bought out this summer he will take up 10% of the Flyers cap in the 13-14 season.
The Flyers may as well try and get him to waive his NMC and get something for him, especially if a week from now they're still 13th or worst in the East. They just need an interested contender who either has plenty of cap room, or is prepared to buy Briere out after the season.

That's a shame. Briere is one of my more favorite Flyers player too. Dude's clutchness in the yoffs is on the next level too.
Speaking of the Flyers, I watched This Is 40 last night (it was not that great) and some Flyers randomly appeared in it. It was fucking random as shit
He has more 5 on 5 shots against than any of our dmen too for this season.
Sharks Facebook is good for some laughs right now. I swear these dummies don't even watch games.
