NHL October 2017 [OT]- Kneelin' and dealin'

Duchene for Bozak + season tickets to Canada's Wonderland and African Lion Safari is the best deal for Burnaby Joe I think.

The daily Trump/hockey coverage is kind of turning my stomach. I'm not even excited for the season now, though I am curious to see how many players take a knee during the anthems on opening night.

Kneeling is disrespectful to a musical composition and some cloth.
 
Very Interesting. Why give up a pick instead of just Duchene straight up for a little less? Or even a 1-for-1 for a guy like Carlsson?

🙅
That'd be fine too, but more pieces mean more flexibility in the future for us. Also, we need wingers at the moment more than we need one defenseman.

Oh, okay. I don't know a lot about the Avs so this is good info. Keep hearing it repeated that the Avs are almost exclusively looking for defensemen.

I absolutely think that's where Sakic is still starting all deals, or if not now, that's where it was being started. But our defense situation changed a lot over the off-season and while we do need help there it's not nearly as much of a need as it was last year. Nail Yakupov is playing on a line with Matt Duchene. That's where our wing situation is right now.
 
I was just watching Dermott's goal against Detroit from last night and saw a dude in the crowd wearing a Paul Ranger Leafs jersey.

Fucking Paul Ranger.

Who would buy that?

Very true, can't wait to see what Mr. Intellectual Max Domi has to say about this.

I'm not sure I can take too many more dumbass comments from NHL players on current events. Sellout Subban has already soured my anticipation of this season.

I've only had food poisoning once, and yeah it fucking sucks. Hope it doesn't last too long.

Worst mass shooting in the history of the country. Only good news is that my friend and his wife and child had already left Vegas before the carnage began. Was concerned as they were staying right next to Mandalay Bay.

If this doesn't budge gun control one bit then I don't know what will. I'm talking sensible measures not the fear mongering "they taking all my guns away". There are multiple countries where you can own guns that do not constantly have tradgedies of such high numbers. Stating the obvious, I know.

most people aren't even against sensible gun control...its just fear mongering people (Alex Jones) and groups (NRA) have the general populace so convinced that any gun control is "taking mah guns away"

Sandy Hook didn't cause any change:(

Nothing will at this point I think:(

Profits of gun manufacturers are more important:(

Absolutely nothing is going to change in regards to gun control. It should. This country doesnt have the balls to do it though.

We decided years ago as a country that killing 6 year old kids in their schools is something we can live with. The only reason there's even the slightest glimmer of hope that something could happen this time is because of the sheer volume of first hand video footage from many many angles from right in the heart of this attack. All of the footage of this incident comes completely from the victims' perspectives, not from some outside view looking in.

We'll see if that fact moves the needle at all.
It won't.


Sounds like Jagr signed with Calgary
Do the Traveling Jagrs become the Stay-at-Home Jagrs now?
 
Good to see Jagr still in it, though I wonder if he can get the same chemistry as with Hubey and Barkov. Those three could play some pretty hockey.

Meanwhile, the Rangers are currently having a semi-public practice in Lake Placid, and it looks like Brandon Crawley did enough in training camp to get people's attention, as the team just announced they've signed him to an ELC. So, that's nice.
