Anyone have an extra goaltender lying around? Asking for a friend.

Malcolm Subban is still lying around on the ice in Minnesota, pick him up.

You can have Freddy Andersen

Actually shit, no. I remember the last time the Leafs traded a goalie to the Bruins.

 

[Socreges]

Mcllrath is going to be claimed for sure

...Benning?

Please wait until February and give us your 1st rounder for Miller

 

[Red_Man]

Any news on the line up tonight? I'm assuming the top line will start as normal, and hopefully Beaulieu is with Weber again, he had a fantastic game last night and will be needed against Tampa's speed.

 

[Razorskin]

Mcllrath is going to be claimed for sure

Lou is going to claim and waive one of Corrado or Carrick.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Does a team's waiver priority stay intact for the duration of a season, regardless of whether or not it has claimed a player?

Same lineup as last night

Beaulieu fucked up one game, so he's in purgatory for the next 5 months. Michel. Therrien.

 

[Red_Man]

Same lineup as last night

Same lineup =/= same line matchups

I hope Byron isn't starting on that top line to start the game

 

[Solo]

At this stage, Byron > Casperetty

Radu should be playing with the Gallys, though. Pleky is killing him.

Leafs were sent to the bottom of the list when they claimed whatshisface

I just looked this up, and that's not necessarily the case. Unless things have changed since the 2012 lockout, this is a pretty detailed article.

If more than one team puts in a claim on a player during the waiver period, then the team with the higher waiver priority's claim is accepted.

If the claim is before November 1, waiver priority is based on the previous year's standings, with the team with the worst record having first priority and the team with the best record having last priority.

If the claim is after November 1, waiver priority is based on the current year's standings, defined as the lowest percentage of possible points.

I just took a quick look at the CBA and if 2+ teams claim 1 player the first tiebreaker is standings, then ROW, then H2H, then goal differential. It doesn't say anything about priority like yahoo or restricting the number of claims, as far as I can see.

13.19 on page 81, it's a pretty nasty block of text lol.

[MetatronM]

Pavel Buchnevich will return to the lineup tomorrow night. Chris Kreider is skating on his own and getting closer. Henrik Lundqvist gets the start again tomorrow. I thought the idea was to use him less this year?

Josh Jooris will be out 3-4 weeks.

When McIlrath clears or gets claimed, the Rangers should have somewhere in the ballpark of $3m of cap space. Very unusual for this team.

Lou should claim McIlrath then. Just make a team full of waiver pickups.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Maybe Anaheim has to move Vatanen...

*bites knuckle*

 

[Cake Boss]

Claim MCcock, send Chabotsson down to the Q.

 

[Socreges]

Damn once again it really does pay to be the shittiest. I could have sworn after claiming a player you lose priority, but it looks like there's no limit (until Nov 1 of course)

 

[zroid]

Maybe Anaheim has to move Vatanen...

*bites knuckle*

a lot will depend on whether they can convince Bieksa to waive his NMC

btw I'm pretty sure Corrado is better than McIlrath. If Leafs claim him that's just dumb.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Or Despres stays on the LTIR forever.

☹️ Poor dude.

 

[zroid]

so Friedge went on a Sports Illustrated podcast and talked about his famous gaffe from the Olympics

if anyone's interested https://soundcloud.com/si-media-podcast-with-richard-deitsch/elliotte-friedman

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

I hope the Canucks put in a claim on Paajarvi. They could've claimed Etem and sent him to Utica...

 

[Red_Man]

How many times does Paajarvi have to be waived until it's accepted he's not a NHLer?

 

[iLLmAtlc]

I remember the days when my oilers friends were bragging about Sam gagner, Andrew cogliano and MPS running the league, good times.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

Can't claim and send them down.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Jussi out at least another 2 weeks. Fuck man. To many injuries early on. May get Bjugstad back next week tho.

 

[Lone_Prodigy]

Can't claim and send them down.

Actually they can since they were the original team that waived him:

13.22 When a Club claims a Player on Regular or Unconditional Waivers, and, subsequently, in the same season it requests Waivers on the same Player and the original owning Club is the successful and only Club making a Waiver claim, then the original owning Club shall be entitled to Loan such Player to a club in another league within thirty days without further Waivers being asked; provided that such Player has not participated in ten or more NHL Games (cumulative) and remained on an NHL roster more than thirty days (cumulative) following such successful claim

Hope it's nothing too serious

 

[imBask]

Freddy And-It's-In

nice

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

Maybe Anaheim has to move Vatanen...

*bites knuckle*

Not anytime soon. We're under the cap now with Thompson put on LTIR. Question is what happens in March when he's active again.

However, Bieksa and Stoner are available if you want them!

When's Despres coming back?

 

[zroid]

hey buddy Leafs have a Canucks Army guy too!

Freddy and it's in is savage af goddamn

 

[Gunstar Ikari]

hahaha

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

When's Despres coming back?

He's probably going to take the year off. When he saw multiple specialists and got put on LTIR afterwards, seems like he's going to take a long time off if not retire.

edit: Just read that Despres still had symptoms but told the doctors that he felt fine so he can play in the playoffs.

Bob Murray just quoted as saying it's a sensitive subject and he hopes Despres can live a happy healthy life.

I think his career may be in jeopardy

 

[Socreges]

And no thanks to MPS

? Makes perfect sense

 

[JCV]
