Nice, I'm on there all the time and somehow I never noticed the picks part.
Also that Methot may go to Dallas.

Yeah just saw it. Solid point. Not much to add from my pov. Guess it's just wait and see.
Not really impressed with their roster but whatever

Mcnabb
Emelin
Garrison
Engelland
TVR
Reinhart

I expected to lose Methot. Sucks it's for nothing though. We needed the $$ freed up and we keep Claesson so hopefully will be good in the long run.
Methot is gonna decline soon I think.

She is like "why is he more pretty than me?"
Chabot may step right into the lineup tho

It's going to be a clusterfuck headed into the draft

Clayton Stoner and Shea Theodore. I guess it wasn't that bad. We had too many defensemen anyway and good for Shea to get a shot for more minutes with the Vegas Knights
Will Creeper trades happen tho?

I didnt realize Engelland was a UFA. That pick is nowhere near as garbage as Emelin now.
As long as this rumored signing isnt another shit contract.

Knowing Boucher he will get 5-10 minutes ice time every few games, unless he kills it off the bat.
We've rushed every top D prospect last few years. I wouldn't be opposed to it.
I think he's gonna become a lot slower the next few seasons, he's already not that great of a skater. Still, sucks to lose him, he's the definition of heart and soul, would love to have him back on the Sens in the near future.
Hopefully he does get traded to Dallas. I doubt the VGK are gonna be making any noise in the NHL anytime soon and with Dallas he gets a chance to win.

Takes on some of your takes...
Bellemare isn't an enforcer.
Engelland was a UFA, he has signed with Vegas for 1 year, 1 mill. So no, not a terrible contract.
Methot is highly speculated to be trade bait.
Lindberg is a good pick, especially from what they had to choose from NYR.
Emelin, while overpaid, is a mean physical SOB, and they have to reach the cap floor...bad contracts are nothing to them, hence why they are taking on ones of players who can't even play: Clarkson, Grabovski. But man, your takes were so hot.
Offensive guys are usually pretty good out of the gate.
The big lumbering guys usually need to transition to the speed.
Yes, there will be at least two Creeper trades tomorrow
Chabotsson is legit good, he ain't no Ceci or Cowen

Obviously we dont know exactly what happened pre trade freeze, but some of these moves are completely stupid from McPhee...that Minnesota trade for example. It's like McPhee decided to play hard ass on some teams and Mr Nice Guy on others (with really good players available). Not surprising though for a GM who traded Forsberg for Erat.

Always thought he's very decent, certainly better than Phaneuf(who skates like he's going through mud).
They're not gonna pair Chabot with EK so assuming no acquisitions I can see them trying Claesson.
I'm so happy. He deserved it.

Maybe three Creeper Trades 👀
I honestly think there's more at work here than face value
i'm starting to get the impression now with mcphee getting shipachev, gusev and trying to lure dadonov that the next logical step is kovalchuk
he's going hard after the SKA teams offense

Yeah I know I just keep my expectations really low for prospects. Less pain that way.

Claesson will certainly pair up with Norrisson, they were pretty good together in the playoffs. Ceci really needs to step it up...they should have just traded him for Drouin when they had the chance. Losing Methot is definitely not good in the short term, but it does free up cap space for offense and give the younger D some much needed experience.
It was more entertaining than the NBA playoffs.
