It was rumored a long time ago. Better have my parking spot in the plans.
:lol
Fuck that.
You're paying to see the next Kane and Toews in Marner and Matthews. Whatever the prices they should be higher.

Tanev is 26 and on a very good deal. The Hall deal changes things, but Edmonton was desperate and overpaid. You won't see a Hall-like return even though Tanev is better than Larsson.
It's something to think about though. Will the team be competitive in the next 5 years, when Tanev will be over 30? I think they'll need him (or Edler) as the veteran presence, as Juolevi will be coming up. Edler seems like the easier guy to trade, anyway.

I ended up getting a few tickets this morning for the Laffs-Snes preseason game in Halifax in late Sept.
Hope to catch a regular season game in Toronto sometime this season as well.
You bring it on yourself man, you're the classic shit disturber.

Sad!

I believe he was a big fan of them getting Mark Fayne who...hasn't exactly had an all star career there.
Yeah, but to trade to a divisional rival though...
I really do think Ol Petey was looking for a team in the East. Hall isn't a player you want to face a bunch.
Tanev for JVR plz

Looks like Leivo is joining the big club. One-way deal.

lmao, continue to get fucked toronto sports media
For two years even. I'm a little sceptical if he can be a legit NHLer but there's no harm in it.
I'm really enjoying this front office. Media has no clue but hurls shit anyways, most of the fanbase lap it up and freak out until it's proven wrong once again.
Today is Lou's contract announcing day.

Well, if we're talking about nationally televised games...
Three out four against the Eastern conference, two against the Bruins.

By the way, Tyler Dellow was let go by the Oilers
interesting that the two teams with the most controversial trades from an analytics standpoint this off-season both parted ways with their analytics consultants
anyway, I hope he comes back to twitter, I enjoy his Toronto FC rants

So did Pat Brisson. No reason for him to lie. If he got bonuses out of Lou that Lou didn't want to give that's a feather in his cap.
People talk about what he did in New Jersey like he didn't have owners to deal with there.
At least we're not stuck with Stars vs Wild anymore.
When's our outdoor game happening tho?
Yeah, it's almost as if some (most?) teams actually don't want dissenting opinions in the room they just want guys who'll agree with the GM. Especially teams that make terrible trades.
Also, if analytics were actually useful a stats guy that no one apparently listens to anyway should be able to single handedly turn a horrible, 30th place team around in no more than 2 years I'm sure.

Y'all ready for that Florida/San Jose rivalry night?
Truly the bitterest of rivals.

Whenever Austin/Corpus Christi/El Paso/Fort Worth/Houston/Lubbock/Rio Grand Valley/San Antonio/Waco all finally get their teams.
Which is probably never.
Galveston has a shot though.

Hey Jhonny. Nier's OST is pretty good.
It's too bad I can't buy it on the square enix store anymore

Hey you anime JRPG nerds, what's the story on Tokyo Mirage Sessions? Just picked it up.
I thought you hated anime
No cat, It's not just good, it's the best soundtrack in the history of video games

Hall for Tanev would never have happened. I highly doubt Tanev was being shopped, and Edmonton was rumoured to not be offering Hall until Shero asked.
And yes there was the divisional factor.
Don't the Leafs already have enough #1 defencemen?

There's a reason why Arizona canned Maloney for Chayka. A lot of GMs are old school and rate players on their own instincts and scouting (aka "Can't teach size!")
Some analyst coming in with a bunch of graphs and spreadsheets they don't understand to begin with and then telling them they're wrong probably pisses them off to no end.
As for analytics turning a team around in two years that really depends on their roster and what moves are available etc. I doubt it's that straightforward for the basement dwelling teams.

I've heard good things about it, plays like Persona.
15 Rangers broadcasts, showcasing the leagues top stars like Rick Nash and Dan Girardi!
But for real, Bruins are on national TV 17 times next season. Not surprising, but still boring.
I suspect that last paragraph was sarcasm due to Pierre McGuire's dumb ass stating analytics didn't help Edmonton.

It's good.
Nier definitely has the best OST of any game last gen
OK, who hacked Queso's account?
