What's his cap hit again?
Compliance buyout, so nothing.

Interesting trades by the Lightning. Gudas, a 1st, and a 3rd for Coburn seem like overpayment, but maybe Coburn will do better on a stronger team. Connolly for two 2nds seem like a lot for Boston to pay but I guess they needed scoring and Connolly was redundant on a team with talented forwards. Drouin will probably get more ice time as a result.
I have a feeling the Canucks will stand pat today. They might offload a forward for a pick.

Burnt your bridge Leafs, now you have to live with it. This sets us up for getting Phaneuf at the draft or Green.

Leafs retain 99% of his salary and trade him for Roszival!
Zidlicky for just a third with all these d-men prices? Good trade for the Wings.

Haaaaaaaaaah.
Liking this trade. Yes, Zidlicky is old, but for a third, I'll bite.

So we keep Celine another 19 games, he can do a leaving town tour and waive after every game.

I wish the Panthers, Oilers, Stars or Sabres would take Phil and/or Dion.

Well we got an old guy which is a "go figure" type move, the difference is that this one is actually pretty good and fits what we need.
Ah, yes. The get out of jail card

I'd love it if they could work something out with the Oilers. The Leafs have two number one goaltenders, too, after all ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°
I like the addition of Zidlicky a lot. We're not old on defense, we can actually really use a veteran and he fits the bill for what we need.
Kronwall-Ericsson
Dekeyser-Zidlicky
Quincey-Marchenko
Would be a really nice lineup. The addition of Cole up front and we've had a good day without giving up a ton. Much prefer this over some big Phaneuf deal that handcuffs our options for 6 years.

Exactly better to wait till the right offer comes along. We have cap room now, there's no massive rush to unload the contract.

Sounds good to me. Neither goalie is a championship tender anyways.
Yeah, hopefully those guys are moved at the very least.
That's true. I'm just impatient and sick of Dion and Phil.

Yandle trade is bonkers. Rangers gave up a lot, but their defence looks scary. McDonagh, Girardi, Klein, Staal, Yandle, Boyle.
When Lundqvist comes back they'll be a contender for sure.

Fuck that, why do I have to accept garbage analysts on a shit broadcast?
The ratings have been bad for a reason. I ignore them whenever possible as I've said. I don't follow them on twitter, I don't read any of their articles unless it's linked here and not referenced it's from one of them.
They don't have to have the same opinion as me but when you as an analyst or reporter write articles where you personally attack a player you don't deserve to be up there.
It's fine if you like them and listen to them but get off your high horse looking down on us as if we're wrong for wanting something different.

Didn't Dreger have Lupul and Bozak at 60-70% chance of moving today like a week ago? Now he's saying they're probably not going anywhere :lol
Preach brother
That is a scary defence.
Gudas is such a shit disturber, so he's going to fit in nicely with the Flyers.
Coburn is some nice depth for the Tampa defence, but I don't know if he's going to be a major impact on the team. It's a pretty big overpayment IMO.
Forgot about Jokinen and Booth, where the hell are our 5th and 6th round picks?
There's still time. Hope they can unload Niemi and pick up another goalie.
Wings need somebody with a spine who will help out their Captain when he's getting punched in the head off a face off and then misses the following several games.
To be fair Cole might help alleviate this.

zidlicky for a 3rd rounder? not bad.
Blech on Kessel, but I'd take Phaneuf on the Oilers just to piss off the Flames.
Big emphasis on "take". As in primarily a salary dump. If they're expecting one of the top young forwards for that ridiculous contract, dream on.

Not really. Ericsson is still on the first pairing. That's what needed to be fixed.
Habs have definitely bucked a LOT of their historical trends this season, so anything could happen, but I will say that the California road swing usually goes in on the Habs with no lube.
My bad! Perds for sure
