Can someone explain to me why bishop is apparently being shopped? Probably just a dumb rumor but if true it's baffling. He's having an off year and vasilevskiy is his usual meh 910.

Eh, I guess the down season is bad but the whole team is down. Like if I'm picking a goalie between the two I'm definitely going with the proven commodity over the three years of 910. Big man bang Stevie's daughter or something? Whatever, I'm no gm, but if Nill isn't blowing up Yzerman's phone, he should be canned.

Pornographic Memory posted:tampa's going to be hard pressed by the cap (which was just announced to be likely to not increase next season) and has to economize where they can - they've already got vasilevskiy locked up for the next few years at $3.5 million a year starting next season, paying ben bishop $6 million (or more) is going to be tough when you have hedman's extension kicking in and drouin, johnson, and palat up for new contracts. Yeah, that makes sense. For some reason I though big Ben was like 27, not 30.

I hope he gets claimed so he's forced to move against his will. Without his consent, if you will. Actually, don't. He'll just get send down to the minors and that probably exactly what he wants.

Nill used up all his mana on big trades and has none left to competently manage depth oh and also something about goaltending but I'm sure it isn't important. E: Oh, right, defence. Yeah, probably also not important.

Boo hoo, we only have Rask as a starter and several young guys with potential that have yet to hit their nhl stride behind a bad defence. Eat a dick, bruins. Also, hasn't Helly been like 910 all season? He's been average to decent every game I've seen him in. Is it just Pavelec love or what?

Yeah, must be really tough having a team so far down there in last place. Truly, we can all feel for Habs fans. Amazing they'll be a lottery team again this year. That's what, 3 years in a row? Just awful.

Suspicious posted:Also way to have no memory, thread. Remember last season? "lol you're undefeated and you're complaining!!" and then the Habs didn't make the playoff because without a .935+ Carey Price, this team is nothing. And two seasons ago when they were top if the east. Definitely worth complaining about all the time. I mean having the best goalie in the world is so horrible because he could get injured.

grack posted:Hey look, if Dallas stapled Lehtonen and Niemi together they might almost be as good as Price, if Price was on day four of a four day bender and had lost feeling in his catching hand. Such a procedure sounds like it would have a pretty decent chance of one or both of them dying on the operating table. So, yeah, worth a try! Or two! gently caress, sew Nill in there too for kicks.

Though I hear Rask is a bum now. Maybe a goalie swap, Sweeney? Hell, why don't we take the guy from king of the hill and you can have the sabres guy while we're at it.

I'm rooting for the caps to win the cup because I want them to set the trend of still trying to play hockey even though (and this is the crazy part) you have a 1 goal lead with 19 minutes left in the third. Or if you're a "defensive" team, at all.

I dunno, putting a huge dude next to EK and inflating his point total might not be a bad move for the sens. They ain't doing much this year, might as well swindle some nice picks out of an idiot gm for a giant with proximity points. Fake edit: I mean, yeah, they're probably going to make the playoffs because lolantic, but they getting bounded quick.

Schlesische posted:I definitely see the Sens beating the "THANK YOU SWEENEY" Bruins or Leafs. Fancy Cats or Bolts? Probably not (since they'll have to be on fire to make the playoffs), but they're a long shot at this stage. Well, that's what I mean. Yeah, I can see them beating any team in the Atlantic, but does that really matter in the end? Anderson could get playoff hot and price/hank could let in one goal a game and it would/could be a coin toss. Cats are a bit of an unknown because of the injuries and I don't know what to make of the bolts this year. In the end, it would take a whole lot to keep a metro team from taking the east. Though I guess all Ottawa really wants is some playoff revenue, so going two rounds, let alone making it to the ECF, would be a huge win. What I'm trying to say is that Nill is providing to be an idiot and at this point in the season I'd rather talk about other teams than watch the Stars poo poo up the ice for 60 mins.

I dunno, clearly offside and player launched a puck on an unready goalie. If that isn't a penalty there should at least be a 4 or 5 minute scrum about it.
