I would be surprised if he's not with the big club. His age, size, and has nothing left to prove or gain in the minors.

He's the most NHL ready prospect after Barkov, aka most likely playing next year.
Best part of the day.
Destiny starts anew...in 5 years.
To be honest, it could happen, he would be a rarity in that respect. You happy with always coming second to the Avalanche?

This poster pulses with an appeal so broad the typical restraints of our societies fall by the wayside.
For the next few years, you should be more concerned with winning 16 games in the regular season.

The Broncos are still coached by John Fox, too.

All things said and done, it's been a good day for the team. Gillis completely lucked out on Shinkaruk though. No question about it. That might've just saved his job.

Oh man. Entertainment galore. You guys really had a blast in here.
Whoever your 2nd favourite NHL team is, they are now your all time favourite.

I wanted Horvat for the Wings so there would be a player on my favorite team with a last name similar to mine. Now I have to hate him because he is on the Canucks. 
Gillis won't have his job long enough to see them play. Horvat will get the same treatment and scrutiny Eller received when he first came here.

Not going to lie. I'm indifferent about Gillis at this point. I'm absolutely convinced Gilman is the mastermind behind the organization now. I don't disagree with you about Horvat though. I feel sorry for him to some extent. I wouldn't it's an absolute majority, but there's a lot of very vocal bandwagonners here that are absolutely brutal. Hell, they're ripping on the kid already. It's disgusting.
That said, I think he'd be a good Torts kind of player. Hard working, very good defensively and plays in the gritty areas.
You probably won't notice him. Can't remember him being a liability or making any dumb defensive zone plays...but he does have a tendency to make snap decisions without fully assessing his options. Again, he's a really hard worker, has speed, and goes to the dirty areas, but sometimes it feels like he forgets that there are 4 other guys on the ice with him. I'll still miss him.
Hope you guys like him.
Yeah I'm excited to see how he fits. He's a legit third liner which is great. We potentially have an actual third line now instead of maybe one part of one with fourth liners plugged in.You probably won't notice him.

He is a good coach my friend.

Except when he can try to win a playoff game but decides to sit on the ball.

@cmorganfoxaz Did Smith get clear confirmation it's going to be Phoenix or Seattle ? Or was he going on same info everyone has ?
Craig Morgan ‏@cmorganfoxaz 1m
@SteveRousseauQC That is unclear to me. He would not elaborate.

We're totally getting Lecavalier and not going to use MoJo or Perreault as a 2C :<
oh they're dead, alright.
CoG vote on Tuesday is entirely dependent on RSE accepting the CoG proposal.
So if RSE does not agree by 5 PM EST on Tuesday, there will be no vote held.
I was more :|'ing at seattle being the only possible destination
Well, to be fair Mcgahee was injured, and so was Knowshawn Moreno. Leaving only Hillman, the third string running back. Eat a bag of dicks and go back to the NFL thread. lol

How can you not be excited? Unless you're trolling...
Brodeur is either done or done next year. If nothing was done, you guys would have no reliable goalie to step in. Schneider already has some seasoning on him and seemed ok for stretches. With the defensive system in front of him and his ability to rob the occasional game, goaltending isn't as huge a concern now.
The biggest need for NJD was goaltending, and Lou solved it...so...easily...?

Overall not the best outcome but I'm really excited with Barkov, gold tooth and all. Great we got a future 1C. Amazing enough at his age he has far more accomplished the Jokinen before he came over. If he can pull out good Joker season of 80+ points I'll be ecstatic. Got some nice project prospects and some solid picks. Now to FA.
I still don't buy that Seattle is the only destination.
So I heard this Emile Poireir is LeCavalier's nephew or something? Cant find this anywhere.
Damn this kid is fast.. sick.

Severely disappointed in the complete lack of meltdown from you. Tabris is outdoing you by miles. Step your game up.

I Was hoping he'd be there at 34. Rose quickly the last few weeks.

So I assume we're out of the Vinny race at this point?
And
Something has to be done with Grabovski now that we have Bolland?
Unless we buy out Grabovski and Komi, let Bozak walk and possibly get Lecavalier?
And our defense needs work. There's a good system in place now, but we can't rely on Phaneuf and he makes mistakes at the worst times...though I blame that partially on fatigue.

My buddy always claimed his brother was friends with Bolland, now we will see if he was shitting us or not
