Harding got injured again. Kuemper is still being a jackass.
Wild goaltending situation is a mess.
Markstrom and Jensen for Granlund.

I've been listening to TSN radio this afternoon, and it is insane how many Leafs fans are calling in to defend Carlyle and blame the goaltending down the stretch last season. I swear the fans are the reason this team is terrible year after year.
Who the hell is Hope Smoke?

Really looking forward to the 8yr/72m contract Nonis gives Johansen after they trade for his rights.
Nonis ain't in charge anymore brah
Too bad we don't have any regular Columbus fans that post here. I'd like to hear what they have to say about this Johansen stuff, looks like it's getting really dirty.

@TSNBobMcKenzie: Sounds like OTT doesn't want to go any higher than $4.5M AAV on long-term deal for Marc Methot, who is asking for $5M per
@TSNBobMcKenzie: Regarding reports Bobby Ryan turned down 7 x $7M from OTT, my understanding is not only did Ryan NOT turn it down, it was never offered.
@TSNBobMcKenzie: OTT did present multiple proposals - from 2 to 7 yrs - to Ryan but Ryan's reps didn't reject anything. Said they would re-visit talks later.
@BonksMullet: I tried to weigh Bob McKenzie's reports against Don Brennan's reports and the scale laughed at me.
Fuck off Forza.
Dun dun dun#CBJ Ryan Johansen has packed his bags and is flying to Vancouver.
Dun dun dun
This is in regards to the Jackets not letting him train at their facilities if he's unsigned so he has to go home or elsewhere to train.
Bourque, Emelin + 3rd and that's my final offer.
I still see him getting signed, hard to imagine Columbus letting him walk. The package needed for him would probably be stupid pricey.I'm thinking Nashville will be thinking long and hard about it.
Wish we still had Forsberg, could probably put up a package for him.
Decent two way forward, never got why we let him go, but his ceiling is a 3rd line forward. Doubt the Leafs hang onto him.Unsigned #Habs draft pick, Brady Vail (who just attended Carolina's prospect camp), is heading to #Leafs main camp. Plays with Windsor
I still see him getting signed, hard to imagine Columbus letting him walk. The package needed for him would probably be stupid pricey.
Preds, Leafs, Jets? Every other team has one, or has young players coming up. Still a lot of other teams would go for him. He'd be a pretty sick pick up for the Leafs, but you know those discussions start with Rielly +.Josi+Forsberg.
Who else needs a potential franchise centre?
As for Harding, Yeo and Fletcher said they plan to meet today.
Details are murky right now, but there was apparently some kind of incident or altercation with a teammate.
I still dont know all the details and most likely whatever the details are, Im not sure Ill discuss them publicly, Fletcher said. Whatever happened we have to figure out. Clearly, its bad for Josh, its bad for our team. We just have to figure out what happened. But Im not sure I want to get into a whole public expose of what happened. Weve got to speak to the players and figure out what happened.
Harding is in the final year of a contract worth $2.1 million. The Wild once suspended forward James Sheppard for an off-ice ATV accident days before camp that resulted in season-ruining knee surgery. Asked if the Wild conceivably could do the same thing with Harding, Fletcher said, I dont want to get into hypotheticals. I just want to hear what happened and figure it out. The bottom line is Josh was arguably our No. 1 goalie going into camp with how he played last year and he was feeling healthy. The bottom line is right now hes not available to us and that diminishes our depth at that position and it hurts our team. Thats the bottom line right now. However it happened, its important to get the answers, but at the end of the day, its not going to change the situation. Weve got to certainly figure out what happened, but now we have to figure out the best way to proceed going forward. That has to be the priority. Our division got better and we have a lot of work ahead of us and this is not the ideal way to start your season.
If they put logos on the jerseys, I'll be disappointed. They ruin the look of the jerseys they're put on in international play and I hate them.
I wouldn't want to buy a jersey with a company's logo ruining it.
Sorry, It's Budaj / Tokarski going to Minnesota.Lets begin the Reimer to Minny rumours!
Time for Kuemper to cash in.
Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
MIN G Josh Harding's off-ice injury is significant, likely to be out months as opposed to weeks. On crutches/in a boot. Tough break.
Too bad we don't have any regular Columbus fans that post here. I'd like to hear what they have to say about this Johansen stuff, looks like it's getting really dirty.
Yea, seems similar to the situation with Subban when he wanted a long term contract. Sounds like they want to see how committed he is, and they're showing everyone the team comes first. Hard to imagine an offer sheet coming their way, that shit doesn't happen anymore and like you said everyone knows they'd match.JD and Jarmo are straight up cold-blooded, but I kind of like it. It feels like everyone has been super cagey about Joey's work ethic in the past and $12 million for two years is approaching crazy town so it sounds like playing hardball is the way to go. Here's to hoping he's got a good head on his shoulders and recognizes this play for what it is.
I'd be stunned if an offer sheet went out anyway, because Jarmo has been steadfast in saying he'll match it. Don't see why any team would want to do Johansen a favor. Position-wise they can pull Boone Jenner of the wing and put him at center. Production-wise, Hartnell and healthy(ha!) Horton could dull the impact, but shit, people would be fooling themselves if they don't think losing Johansen would make the offense suffer.
I'VE ALREADY OFFERED ELLIS. PEDDLE YO SHIT ELSEWHERE.Avs to part with starter Berra free of charge to Minnesota.
I'VE ALREADY OFFERED ELLIS. PEDDLE YO SHIT ELSEWHERE.
I still don't know why Roy went for Berra.

Come on down Budaj!Goaltender Josh Harding has a fractured right foot and is out indefinitely, #mnwild announce.
:lol :lol Been a while since I've seen that proposal, used for pretty much any and every trade back in the day.I'll give you Ballard, Raymond + 2nd,
Or,
Ryder, Halak + 2nd.
I'll give you Ballard, Raymond + 2nd,
@Russostrib: Sources: Ilya Bryzgalov has agreed to a pro tryout with #mnwild. Will arrive tomorrow. 7-1-3, 2.12 GAA down stretch with Wild last season
Sharks player went to Tahoe for afuck partybonding session to address any issues players were having in the locker room.
Basically the players said to DW that they felt more like coworkers than teammates after the season ended.
Cheap too.Welp Chronecast is amazing why the fuck did I wait so long
Y'all can have Dan "the Wall" Eliis for free!
Asking for $850,000 guaranteed for one year is hardly being a jackass. He's earned at least that much.
Sharks re-sign Justin Braun to a 5 year deal, no $$$ yet. Super happy we locked him up, he's fucking great. With that our right side D is taken care of for years to come, just need that whole fucking awful left side thing figured out.
Edit: 19m, 3.8 per. Really really good deal. Where you at Fubar, he's a Minnesota boi.
Markstrom and Jensen for Granlund.
Honestly surprised about that report, because literally every other single thing that has come out was saying he wanted multiple millions of dollars with only a one or two year term. Fletcher wants to sign him to a two year deal, with the first year being two way and the second being one way. Don't understand how Kuemper can't do that.
I just realized I'm gonna miss the Sharks opener (New Pornographers are in town), which is probably good. Don't have to watch the banner raising.
will never buy another jersey when this happens
I don't think it would work quite as well on NHL jerseys though since the logos are drastically different than football emblems.
Think they'll put them on the pants when it's all said and done.
2K is developing a NHL game!
For mobile.
Beachside fuck fests, however...
Aren't there things like monsters and serial killers in the woods, though? No thanks.
