Once Virtanen gets out of legal trouble and gets back to the NHL he should only need a couple more years to reach his potential and thrive as power forwards always take longer to develop.

Put the space back in the name and change the crest to a literal black hawk. The issue has always been the Native American imagery.

Their logo doesn't even look anything like Blackhawk or his people. Their style was (and is) totally different.

Let's be honest with ourselves, we loved Brass Bonanza and the jerseys, but Hartford was by and wide fuckin terrible, and they've been gone almost 25 years now. Quebec's been gone even longer. I loved some of hockey's heyday myself but that's gotta be let go at some point.

ImplicitAssembler posted:I guess there's a small chance the OEL trade wont be terrible, but it's a huge gamble. He's going to count 7.25m against the cap at age 30-35, it's going to be terrible. The question is how terrible and how soon. Like with the Myers deal, it was obviously going to be terrible from the beginning, but you hoped to get at least a few years of near-even value out of it (even though all evidence said it was going to be a tire fire from day one and it was)

heehee posted:your a fuckin idiiot dude. theyre not trading hughes It's not a terrible plan (ok it is terrible), but the biggest problem is assuming Benning can use cap space effectively.

also, like I've said, there's nothing wrong with the idea of "reclamation projects", it's reasonable in some cases to think a poorly-performing player can be improved and that's what your pro scouting department is for but you should be getting a discount! You should be paying for what the player IS, not what he potentially could be. It's never worth gambling that a deal could be fair value at BEST.

Friedmans predictions on where some of the bigger names wind up - Free agency… Dougie Hamilton: New Jersey David Savard: Montreal Gabriel Landeskog: not hugely confident in this prediction, but he and Colorado find a way Blake Coleman: the prediction is, he gets 6×5 Jaden Schwartz: Seattle, basically done during the Kraken’s exclusive window Brandon Saad: St. Louis, Islanders, Pittsburgh or Los Angeles Kyle Palmieri: haven’t heard a thing, which means the Islanders probably have him locked up Phillip Danault: Los Angeles takes a surprise look Alec Martinez: stays in Vegas Alex Goligoski: Minnesota Derek Forbort: Boston Zach Hyman: Edmonton. Makes me feel I’m getting one right Alexander Ovechkin: 3×10 to stay in Washington Ryan Suter: Dallas Florida: locks up Sam Bennett, Sam Reinhart and Carter Verhaeghe. Trades… Ryan Strome: Seattle, Vegas or Ottawa. Vladimir Tarasenko: Islanders or New Jersey. I think both those teams add something

I think at this point it's fairly clear the Avs have decided to move on from Landeskog unless he gives them a steep discount.

Love that the Canucks are likely about to buy out Brayden Holtby, a guy they signed 9 months ago. Maybe they didn't need a big name and spending $5m on a backup was stupid? Who could've see this coming?

The Reinhart return was underwhelming. But I think a lot of people are overlooking the cap space gained as an asset in the trade. Late 1st Young goalie prospect 7?mil in cap space. A good GM could get a lot out of that cap space in a flat cap world. We’ll see what Adams does with it. I’d hope they get paid another 1st rounder to take on a 1-2 year cap dump.

If Holtby‘s getting bought out, could the Caps resign him on the cheap? 100% would love him to backup Samsonov. Also, any word on Lundquist? He gonna retire or give it another shot?
