“Let me talk about Högs,” Bruce Boudreau says, “He looks like the best player on the ice right now.”

Crazy how people legit thought that Boudreau hates Hoglander






Höglander for Chiarot. I heard Vancouver needs defense.

laugh Chiarot played ultimate frisbee with Boudreau's nephew on a scholarship a few years ago while attending University of Manitoba. His fiancee is from British Columbia. Too bad Yzerman doesn't deal his 6'2 + defensemen laugh

Ya I think someone should scoop him up but I don’t see a fit on the leafs.


Quoting: capsfan2121
The reason I say that is because he is a great 4c not that you need more of those lol and he isn’t afraid to fight. Remember the zegras thing.


Philly seems like the perfect fit; especially with their identity and center depth due to Couts injury

Elliotte Friedman said on 32 thoughts that Dallas wanted Nils Lundkvist at the 2018 draft and that they’ve been trying to trade for him for last 8 months


Could’ve just drafted Lundkvist over Dellandrea.

Thats literally what I was thinking

Heck trade their 44th OA, 75th and 100th OA pick to move up to 28th OA and get him without sacrificing the 13 OA pick

Now the good news is with Ottinger that 1st probs late but still to me it just seemed so odd to pay that much for a guy like that.

Maybe a bit of a reach at 13th overall, since Lundkvist wasn't even a lock for a first round pick iirc

Then again, neither was Dellandrea lol

Or you could have taken one of the only two actually good players still available (Farabee or Miller). Man that 2018 draft was horrendous. I know it was only 4 years ago, but there are like 7 good players and only a handful more that even look like surefire NHLers.

Hindsight is a fickle thing indeed.

Well, considering how big W the 2017 draft was I think failing in 2018 was the only "right" thing to do.

Great: Svechnikov, Tkachuk, Hughes
Good: Dahlin, Kotkaniemi, Boqvist, Bouchard, Wahlstrom, Dobson, Farabee, Miller, Sandin, Romanov, Perunovich, Fehérváry, Sharangovich
NHLers: Hayton, Zadina, Smith, Kupari, Merkley, McLeod, Kurashev.

it was 4 years ago and this is only all the guys who have (imo) become full time NHLers, there will probably be more after camp though.

Keith Yandle said on Spitten chiclets that Huberdeau told Bill Zito to “f**k off” after Zito told him he was being traded.

Between that and some of Weegars comments, it seems like there were locker room issues in Florida and Zito wanted to shake things up

Ngl I'd probably be salty about being traded from Florida to Calgary too lol

That's pretty much literally being traded to the complete opposite part of the whole continent.

Yeah I get that lol - he obviously loved the lifestyle in south Florida. It’s a great place to live , especially when you have money. I know he was always seen driving around in his Ferraris, mclaren lol.

It did seem like the panthers were just comfortable with hitting individual milestones and living the life in Florida. They needed a culture change. I think the strip club aopearance during the lightning series was further proof of that 😂

Quite true.

They had a problem in terms of lack of established winning culture. Reminds me of Buffalo in a sense.

Difference being that the team was of way too high quality to choke in the regular season, and as well for the first round of the playoffs.

Going against a team with winning culture and a roster to match, and they got absolutely annihilated.
