Gotta love the instant shit talking that happens once a young player is moved

The nerve of that hot shot diva!

 

[ShadowSoldier89]

I think I've been too busy celebrating to start posting in here.

so how is everyone's offseason going

That stuff has been floating around about him since last year at least. Even Kimmo Timonen called him out on it last summer.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

I think it was an ESPN writer that said last week part of why Chicago moved Saad was because Bergevin was going to offer sheet him, which I found surprising, doesn't seem like something he would do.

Man I wish Montreal got Hockey Seth Rollins

Auston Matthews was just on the Fan 590 in Toronto, he sounds like a hockey player

Not dumb, full of cliches, boring tone

I swear to god Hockey Stars must be the most boring people to interview.Same monotone voice, most plain answers if they are asked a hard question. Except for PK and Burns of course.

Good old Canadian boy not like that commie Laine.

 

[Cake Boss]

Everyone knows only North America has gyms. They can't workout elsewhere.

 

[Smiley90]

Wales winning makes me happy, they could actually finish 1st in the group :lol

And Laine!

North American hockey culture is so annoyingly restrictive.

 

[Red_Man]

Shattenkirk watch is on. Seems unlikely Blues will be able to extend him. Boston among those most interested in trade, but interest is high.

Now that is a high profile trade target, really hope the Bruins don't get their hands on him.

I don't wanna see Shattenkirk in a Bruins Jersey

And PK gets ravaged for it despite literally building hospitals for kids.

 

[zroid]

Vesey to Buffalo?! lmao

 

[Red_Man]

My favourite thing is how much the media, especially Montreal media will shit on him for all the stuff he does outside of hockey and claim he's not focused enough about playing.

 

[DopeyFish]

Vesey to Buffalo?! lmao

Such a dumb trade if he doesn't sign

 

[Yawnier]

Vesey to Buffalo?! lmao

Damn

I thought Poile said he wasn't going to trade his rights... must have changed his mind when Buffalo dangled a decent pick in front of him.

 

[Fata1moose]

Now that is a high profile trade target, really hope the Bruins don't get their hands on him.

Avs trade vindicated.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

Vesey to Buffalo?! lmao

Whoa

What if Vesey doesn't sign with Buffalo? Lol

 

[zroid]

The pick traded for Vesey is actually Minnesota's

it has had a long journey

Minnesota -> Florida -> New Jersey -> Anaheim -> Buffalo -> Nashville

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

WTF, Vesey?! Buffalo?!

 

[DopeyFish]

Yeah, buffalo hasn't spoken to vesey yet lol

They're just trying to get in between toronto and boston on this

 

[MetatronM]

Whoa

What if Vesey doesn't sign with Buffalo? Lol

He is signing.

Michael Russo Verified account @Russostrib
@DanJFriedman @PLeonardNYDN @AdamVingan he's signing with them. He's been skating with Eichel for a month

 

[Yawnier]

Whoa

What if Vesey doesn't sign with Buffalo? Lol

It's probably not the end of the world if he doesn't.

Looks like they still have like 11 picks for this draft, just 1 less than the leafs.

 

[zroid]

GM Eichel making trades!

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

He is signing.

I guess the pick would also help tide things over in case of a collision claim.

 

[Smiley90]

Wales!

England! :lol

 

[DopeyFish]

He is signing.

No guarantee of anything.

People forget hockey is tight knit and summer workouts are usually done in company of players on other teams.

 

[Cake Boss]

They got more for Vessey than we got for Spezza :/

 

[demosthenes]

They got more for Vessey than we got for Spezza :/

We had 4 3rd's, so it's not too much to us, haha. This is great, we need wingers.

 

[eyeless]

He is signing.

so why'd they waste a third

 

[Socreges]

Wales!

England! :lol

So happy.

England is tragic. Such a weak group and they still don't win it.

 

[Smiley90]

So happy.

I hope they get Portugal and just lose in usual fashion.

Pretty sure he's not saying that just because he was skating with Eichel. You can let go of this one.

 

[Cake Boss]

so why'd they waste a third

Timmay Murray and Poile are tight nit like Dopey says. He did him a solid.

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

so why'd they waste a third

Maybe a sign of good will? Plus they have a crapload of picks too.

 

[DopeyFish]

so why'd they waste a third

Maybe this is all a song and dance to avoid tampering charge

[Yawnier]

I'm scared

The last two times that the leafs traded pick(s) for a goalie out of California it didn't work (Toskala and Bernier).
