So the option to buyout Bryz is still on the table it seems.

This won't be finalized until they acquire Bernier, obviously.

Spurs: finish it. End the NBA season tonight. Please.

I'm not watching this shit, just following online. Although I'll tune in to see Chris Bosh cry again.

 

[wsoxfan1214]

Make sure to play your best player with some scrubs and switch up the lines whenever you feel like.

Fuck Q.

Make your PP pass and never shoot.

I'll also make sure my defensemen never move on the point on the PP so the defenseman can just stick to the guy on the boards.

Watch the Mighty Ducks.

Done like 500 times.

Make sure they do at least 30 minutes of jumping exercises every day.

They wanna give the #1 spot to Enroth? Really?

Enroth took Sweden to a gold medal at the World Championships... He's not THAT bad.

Enroth is alright.

He went over a calendar year without a win, he can be pretty good or really bad. I haven't seen enough consistency to give him that position, Buffalo is just getting a head start on the McDavid sweepstakes.

So Brodiziak sucked this year aswell as Gilbert, heres why. LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

"Former Oilers Tom Gilbert and Kyle Brodziak both had pneumonia early this season. During the lockout, they golfed 45 holes one day in late November in Minnesota when it was only four degrees. Gilbert ended up with viral and bacterial pneumonia and spent four days in hospital. Brodziak didn’t get sick until January, but he lost 15 pounds and it zapped his strength. He said he is finally back to feeling better. When I asked them what they were thinking golfing on that cold of a day Gilbert said: “We weren’t thinking. I have no idea why we kept playing. It definitely wasn’t our best decision.”

Golfed 18 today. Zero interest in even one more hole. I've never golfed 18 and felt 'I'd like to do that again... right now!'

He went over a calendar year without a win, he can be pretty good or really bad. I haven't seen enough consistency to give him that position, Buffalo is just getting a head start on the McDavid sweepstakes.

If they're actually planning to tank they'll need to also trade Vanek. He'll get a great return.

FUCK YEAH GOLF

Last I recall, they were planning on trading one of Miller / Vanek but not both, I could be wrong though. Any team that traded for Vanek would absolutely gut their prospect / picks pool, so they'd have to hope to win a cup in 2-3 years.

Why IS golf such a huge tradition after a postseason end anyway?

 

[Smiley90]

Why IS golf such a huge tradition after a postseason end anyway?

It's a rich people's sport that's nowhere near as physically taxing as hockey, and the season for it starts around the time the season ends for most hockey players. You get to show off your fancy cars and equipment to your friends, too. That'd be my guess, at least.

 

[Acid08]

Why IS golf such a huge tradition after a postseason end anyway?

If it's not for charity then it's a sport you can play while drinking A LOT while just fucking around and not really caring about playing.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Low impact sport. Not many options for physical recreation.

After a week of internal meetings, Avalanche brass came to a conclusion: Jones won't be their pick. Instead, it could be any one of three forwards: Nathan MacKinnon, Jonathan Drouin or Alexander Barkov.
"If we do pick first, we're leaning more toward one of those three forwards," Avalanche executive vice president of hockey operations Joe Sakic told The Denver Post.

POST IF YOU ARE OKAY DUB!

That's really surprising unless Sakic is doing some hard fishing, I think that's it, he could trade down and get one of those forwards plus more if he really wanted too.

 

[ZeroGravity]

Holy shit, please let Jones somehow fall to #3.

 

[ShaneB]

GOLF IS AWESOME. The US Open had a hell of a finish. I miss playing golf I'm poor and golf is expensive here in Toronto. Fuck.

Also, basketball OT just doesn't have the same flare.

 

[Red_Man]

Holy shit, please let Jones somehow fall to #3.

There's no way I ever see that happening. Plus fuck a team with both Stamkos and Jones, or Druin, or Mackinnon.....Fuck....

No waaaaaaaaay. Maybe putting out rumours to get some trade-talk going. No idea. But damn.

(Also wait, why Dub? The only Avs fan I can think of is 19&21... Dubbed's a panthers fan?)

They'll still be shit without a goaltender

(Also wait, why Dub? The only Avs fan I can think of is 19&21... Dubbed's a panthers fan?)

He wants Mackinnon. If the Avs take a forward at #1, Mackinnon is the most logical choice.

Dub has been jerking off to Mac videos for 6 months now, I assume if the Avs take him 1st overall he'll hang himself.

There's this Luongo guy who I think likes the state of Florida available.

Ah, I see :rofl. Well he shouldn't complain about getting Jones.

I just saw this follow up tweet

"Sakic went on to say COL believes MacKinnon, Drouin and Barkov represent the best 3 players in the draft. AKA, Seth Jones not in their top 3"

That's rather shocking to me, this draft day could be legendary.

inb4 Calgary trades up to Nr 3 pick with Jones available and picks an unknown High Schooler.

I wonder if Jones' stock is maybe falling with other teams too?

Or Colorado is just crazy.

High Schoolers are so last year, time to go for pre school kids, find those prodigies early.

A scout on twitter said most people would be shocked by how different teams boards are this year. Should make for an interesting day.

Does anyone have that "War room" picture from last year at hand, where the one team's room was ridiculously small and old-fashioned? I remember a picture like that.

[Fata1moose]

I want the Avs to pick Jones, that being said picking a defense at #1 is risky business. Look no further than Johnson. I'd be fine with MacKinnon as well.That would be Stastny is probably gone and trading him isn't going to solve our defense problem as he can't fetch a #1 caliber defenseman. This could also just be a tactic to get Florida to pay up if they want MacKinnon, then we could get Jones and maybe a little bonus.

 

[Dubbedinenglish]

Jesus fuck Avs you had ONE JOB.

 

[Samyy]

Jesus fuck Avs you had ONE JOB.

Theres still a 2/3 chance they dont take Mackinnon :x

 

[Fata1moose]

Colorado, crushing Florida's dreams since 1996.

It was looking fucking good. Sakic, Roy, Foresberg...Once wasn't enough? They have to fuck us over again? Really.

So what team in the West will trade for Letang?

I'd say the Ducks would go for him.
