But man can Shea Weber sock some dingers.

Also he is going to receive a non-zero number of first place Norris Trophy votes.
I kind of doubt it at this point. Or he'll get 1 rogue one or whatever.

Not a bad return but am I crazy to think he could easily get a 1st at the deadline?
Yes

Hockeys players around the world are waging war against the oppressive referee system.

I would be so loving mad if we lose Methot but I don't see a scenario where that doesn't happen
I mean I realize they still really like Cody Ceci for some asinine reason but if they were a sensible team it still wouldn't be an issue.

And that Cody Ceci was apparently too big a price to pay for Jonathan Drouin.
It's cool that they have a really established pattern of liking iffy prospects, sticking through them through several disappointing seasons despite getting good offers and then watching their value drop to 0 and below. Cowen was once worth quite a bit even after disappointing expectations pretty majorly, until such point that everyone figured out he was awful and he became a salary dump who no longer plays hockey. Lazar is the exact same deal and I think they're going to keep him.

I don't even really doubt that, but it's such a non-sense way to evaluate that kind of move. None of them have met Dahlen, players aren't going to be too upset that they traded a guy who might not be on the roster soon is gone in favour of a playoff push and the players are just going off what they heard of Burrows and saw from whenever. Like we don't have any former Canucks on the team as far as I can tell, which means at most you got guys like Methot and Ryan who played against him a few times (but not in the same division) many years ago, or Phaneuf who hasn't been in the West since 2009.

We've also added like 20 million "character" guys throughout the year and apparently we still really need another one. Half our loving team is supposed to be character guys at this point.

Although I'm not banking on it, what are the odds both Columbus and Minnesota get bounced in the first round?
I'd say both are 50/50 so 25%
