Why is MB so good at his job and Dave Nonis isn't?

What's up with that?

Nonis is dumbass

 

[Cake Boss]

Nonis is dumbass

So is Bran Murray.

Pierre Dorion and his scouting department have saved his job.

 

[Quick]

Welcome back, Creeper. Hope the surgery went well.

 

[Solo]

Seeing the insane returns for mediocre players teams of getting, if I were the Oilers I'd put RNH or Eberle's name out there just to see how much you could fleece someone.

 

[Red_Man]

Told teams have inquired about N.Beaulieu recently, and now J.Tinordi's name is out there. #Habs might not be done yet.

Stay the fuck away from Brolieu

 

[pringles]

where are they getting this footage of executives supposedly exchanging emails :lol

Stock footage of Kenny Holland kicking tires.

David Clarkson was traded. Nothing will ever top that.

For veteran presence Chris Philips.

I could see Tinordi (and maybe even Eller) + a pick or prospect going somewhere for a Top 6 winger, if he's got his eyes on one.

 

[Red_Man]

Cobourn doesn't sound excited at all to be going to Tampa :lol

I'll be really surprised if Tinordi is moved. Eller on the other hand I'm expecting.

Voynov to Philly?

Wut

It's fake.

@TSNBobMcKenzie · 6m 6 minutes ago

I usually hate reporting what's NOT happening, but LA has not traded Slava Voynov to PHI. #TradeCentre

I hate the salary cap. It nerfed the deadline, and made trades much more difficult to make.

Yup, before the Avs spent on whatever the hell they wanted. It also forced us to lose players and shortened our window to win. Maybe teams like Phoenix wouldn't have been able to stay afloat, but oh no... :|

 

[Parch]

The Coburn deal seems like another big overpayment. If Philly could get a 1st and 3rd for Coburn then a 2nd and 5th for Petry is the deal of the century. Montreal wins that deal big time. Ignore that +/- because Petry will help the Habs.

 

[User 479360]

I'd like to see Reimer go to Edmonton for a 2nd and a 4th.

 

[Parch]

I'd like to see Reimer go to Edmonton for a 2nd and a 4th.

I wouldn't. Gross overpayment for a backup.

 

[Plinko]

I find it hilarious that so many fake accounts have become so prominent that actual analysts have to now discredit a ton of stuff.

 

[User 479360]

He'd be their starter.

 

[Red_Man]

Reimer would get lit up like the 4th of July behind that Edmonton defence

 

[Zod the Bear]

Cobourn doesn't sound excited at all to be going to Tampa :lol

Understandable, if he found out like this.

 

[Quick]

A WILD RON WILSON APPEARS

 

[Parch]

He'd be their starter.

He'd be another goaltender for McTavish to throw under the bus. Toronto got Bernier because they had no confidence in Reimer as a starter. I think he's proven over and over again that he isn't a starter, but it wouldn't surprise me if McTavish would believe otherwise just because he wants somebody else to blame.

 

[yyzjohn]

I don't know about that, the Leafs defense would regularly give up 40+ shots and he seemed to fair ok. He's used to it.

[Coldnoodle]

Wilson has such terrible tv posture :lol

 

[Red_Man]

Bergevin trying to trade PAP according to MAG. Not surprised after he didn't play last game even though he was healthy.

I'm... Okay with this

Sorry PAP.

If MB gets Yakapov...

My God..

 

[ZeroGravity]

After sleeping on it, I'm pretty happy with the Coburn deal. Overpayment, but given the organization depth and picks the Lightning already had, it wasn't that steep a price. And I'm happy Yzerman is committed to actually winning a cup this year, which I now feel we have a legitimate shot at.

That may have been the only smart move Sakic made this year as Briere's contract is up after this season. That's valuable cap space that can be used elsewhere. Hopefully we can move Briere for a pick today, he has good playoff success after all.

I don't have any problem with PAP, he's a good possession player who's had a low PDO and been a victim to Therrien's constant line shuffling.

Just saw the Coburn trade. Great start to my day.

Talks are continuing between Toronto and Detroit on a Dion Phaneuf deal. #tradecentre

Who needs parity in the league? Having a trade deadline with more trades is way better.

Yup, before the Avs spent on whatever the hell they wanted. It also forced us to lose players and shortened our window to win. Maybe teams like Phoenix wouldn't have been able to stay afloat, but oh no... :|

Yep. It sure was cool watching the same 4 teams buy their playoff runs every year.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Looking forward to see what else goes down. Emelin or Tinordi gotta go i imagine.

 

[CreeperBlocks]

LOL

I love Luuuu <3

He's still one of my Favourite Vancouver Canucks

 

[User 479360]

I think this is going to be a slow day, which sucks.

More than four teams could "buy" playoff runs, it just deepened on what they had to build off, in that regard it's very similar now. LA and Chicago are always contenders.

 

[Red_Man]

"We know the Oilers top priority is goaltending. They either get it done now or in the offseason."

Thanks for showing up Dreger. Really stretching with that one.

It's probably gonna get busier after noon.

I have heard Phaneuf for Weiss and Kindl so far. That cannot be all of it.

I was going to refute this, but then I remembered that the NHL was created in 2004.

 

[Parch]

Yeah, probably. They're just cleaning up the leftovers now, and it sure seems like there isn't going to be anything close to a blockbuster happening.

 

[Yawnier]

Yep

I think two years ago there wasn't a trade on deadline day until 12 or 12:30 ET.

 

[Coldnoodle]

Why are all the avatars dead

 

[Samyy]

I think this is going to be a slow day, which sucks.

Is this your first deadline?
