People who think gym pics r sus are the ones that don’t go to the gym

Bold predictions for the rest of the off-season:

- Gaudreau signs with the Oilers
- Canucks extend, not trade Miller
- Kane and Toews stay in Chicago
- Seattle goes ham in FA
- A big name RFA will be moved

So Kubel is a better Clifford then as he was basically a guy who played well then took stupid penalties

I think Kane is moved at the TDL when 3 team trades become more common

pretty much

I don’t know man the last one doesn’t seem too bold to me

no one thinks that?

Dorions coming for Russia after he takes over NA as the first Canadian Cup team that returns being the OTTAWA FRICKING SENATORS.

What’s Joe Biden’s plan to stop the Ottawa Senators ????

Who I’d be ok with the isles signing:
Gaudreau
Burakovsky
Marchment
Perron (only on a 2 year deal @ less than 6 mill per)
Giroux

If Lou signs any of these players I might have to find a new team

Chiarot
Leddy
Kadri

Sens bandwagon is open for business

Miller wont come as he would be the #7. Still aint a bad option

Cousins doesnt fit the system but at 800k would be nice, Senyshyn for the Marlies sure

why is San Jose sign Calvin?

Only if they get rid of Zaitsev

Beats me. Maybe Grier thinks they need to bolster up their defense or something. Especially if they deal Burns.

Suffice to say that they plan to add someone after the Balcers buyout.

Honestly it's a shot in the dark.

Wayne Gretzky is a former Soo Greyhound
Wouldn't suprise me if Dubas tries to get Gretzky out of retirement

If Boss says Gaudreau is coming to NJ, he's coming

It's either Devils or Penguins imo. The former just have more money to offer.

Caps won’t have the Cap Space for all 3 of those guys, they likely only get Kuemper. They expect Wilson and Backstrom to return mid-season so can’t take advantage of that cap.

It's been rumoured to happen. I think there's a possibility. If Chychrun ends up being the D we acquire, I wouldn't be surprised if Zaitsev goes the other way. If we get Weegar or Marino though, we'll have to pay to dump him separately, which I'm willing to do

backstrom is coming back? i thought he was done.

Yeah this was mostly done under the impression that Bäckström is not returning.
