I’d love it if the day after the Chicago fire sale is over the NHL announces they are losing their first 2023 draft pick for covering up abuse.

Actually cancel their pick on the way to the podium to pick Bedard.

Glad the Devils are doing the obvious and trading Zacha. I'm pumped about what they do. I'm not really feeling the Vanecek deal but they have so much money to spend on the forwards. I'm pretty sure they'll throw money at Gaudreau.

Nice to see some former Sens joining the team now that Melnyk is in hell, hopefully Alfie gets a position in the front office somewhere

so many former sens are still around the team orbit but melnyk really poisoned the well. hopefully this is a sign things will be changing.

I'm down on the Vanecek deal too. They have soooo much money to spend, they should've overpaid for a better goalie.

His ex-wife has accused him of domestice violence and sexual assault. There's also the gambling (possibly on games), fake vax card and his teammates in San Jose and Winnipeg hating him (but the Jets are a shitshow in the locker room so)

Yeah unless Toronto is also hiring Mitch Korn to fix whatever went wrong with Murray, I don't get it

I know he had concussion issues and his dad died, and that's awful on both counts, but he's had 3 trash seasons in a row

Does Toronto just not have the picks because I don’t understand how you don’t go for someone like Georgiev instead of putting your money on Matt loving Murray. Well I mean besides incompetence.

Sooo my recollection is that the claim was that there was a woman who Evander Kane had impregnated in the past (out of wedlock) and had paid a large sum of money (in the hundreds of thousands of dollars range) to have an abortion and to keep quiet about the matter. Apparently this happened two or three times, but the last time Kane welched on paying her (possibly because he lost all his money to gambling, who knows) after she had the abortion.

Evander Kane seems like a bad dude, and I remember being pissed off at Dustin Byfuglien for reportedly being an rear end in a top hat and bullying Kane when they were in Winnipeg but now I've been fully brought around to thinking that Byfuglien is actually the best.

Kinda seems like it. Krejci publicly said he wanted to spend some time in Czechia so his kids would get to experience that part of their heritage but the timing is odd that now he's suddenly willing to come back. Krejci in particular was vocal about wanting to play with Pastrnak, the two of them play together internationally and have a lot of chemistry, but Cassidy refused to break up Bergeron's line for any reason. He didn't break up that line until halfway through this season really, and, surprise, it turns out the Bruins have two really good lines if you put Pastrnak with other good players. Everything that's been said post-Cassidy makes it sound like the players really did appreciate the results they got under his coaching, but that he was inflexible and played favorites with the veterans, and that was starting to grate on them. When you add in stuff like Debrusk rescinding his trade request (which had been out there for over a year) less than a month after Cassidy was let go, it really does seem like he just lost the room due to being a hardass.

The goalie market kinda sucks. Toronto seemed like a good destination for Kuemper since he just won the cup, not sure why they would be going for Matt Murray instead (unless they are going for both of them?)

Edit: gonna die laughing if Kuemper somehow ends up in Buffalo. It’d probably be a good long-term move for the Sabres but maybe not for Kuemper unless he dreams of taking a young Finnish goalie under his wing.

It makes sense once you realize that Dubas makes moves to show that he’s smarter than everyone instead of just making room for actual good players.

It’s pretty similar to why they acquired Campbell, find someone who played under Dubas in the Soo who had a good reputation then fell on hard times and assume they’ll magically become their best self once they put on a Leafs jersey. Dubas is betting that he’s got better chances of Cup-era Matt Murray returning than one of Campbell or Kuemper being worth their contracts, and everyone who thought Murray was washed will look dumb.
