So CBJ vs. Det is next outdoor series

And its in the horseshoe stadium in Ohio

Idk about that one lul

Tyler Myers?!?!? Just scored an incredible goal

This Canucks-Jets game has been a great (albeit questionably officiated) game. Real playoff feel to it

Fun Fact: The Senators have scored almost 20 more goals then the Jets yet are 25 points behind them in the standings

Seriously! “The league rigged it for the Pens” is already stupid but I’m sure we weren’t the highest bidder in 2005!

Why is nobody talking about Duchene's rebound? He got bought out last year and now he's over a PPG, and a big reason why Dallas is so good.

Same with Bedard, Matthews, McDavid. No doubt someone would in the hundreds of millions for a player like that.

If I were to bet, I'd be spamming on that Colorado and Dallas numbers... And staying the freak away from the EDM and VAN numbers

New trade deadline prediction: this is not a sellers market or a buyers market, this is a deal brokers market. Teams like Chicago, Buffalo, Nashville, and Anaheim are positioned to “win” the deadline.



I’ve been trying to come up with common sense deals.

While there is nuance such as Sergachev giving some LTIR space, the contending teams just don’t have space and I’m finding it hard to even identify cap dumps from many teams. There are so few middle men and they will be in demand. I find it odd these mechanisms potentially would give the biggest reward to those who spent the least.

This will be the last, best opportunity for teams to broker deals and take on cap.
With the cap finally rising again, there will still be several teams in tight situations, but there will be more cap space in the league as a whole to mitigate it.
Should result in less dumps overall and lower prices for accomodating cap.

Is cap even an issue? Seems to me like it's a major sellers market. Very little supply and a lot of demand

Maybe magnified on the deals I was trying to guess at. Like Edmonton has its first, should be spending it I feel. I don’t see what the dollar out will be for them. Or like - some of these names on the sellers list, perhaps a Buchnevich even - his cap hit is kinda low - but even whatever deadline hit that ends up being - I’m struggling to find a way it could be traded that makes sense.

It depends on the bonus and the contract. For typical ELC schedule A bonuses, some are hit for team-related stats (top-6 in points per game). As assuming the player plays the minimum amount of games with both team, that would count for the team that ended up with player. If it’s a counting stat…like most SPC or 35+ deal that include bonuses, such as number of games player, it depends on where the played was when they reached that number.

For example, I believe both Florida and Philadelphia booked bonuses by Owen Tippett the year he was traded

I like both Colorado & Dallas plus Florida at their current odds. I agree that Edmonton & Vancouver are overrated, but I would add Boston as well. They always seem to underachieve in the postseason.

Matt Rempe 6'8" 240 Lbs playing his first NHL game today. First shift he fights Matt Martin, and wins!

Matt Rempe career so far:

0:01 TOI
5:00 PIM

First ever player to take rookie lap in stadium series, gets in fight one second into his career.

Horvat w/ Cookie #22; looks like he's keeping up his end of the trade thus far.

The Rangers are playing like absolute trash today. They won’t be making any noise in the playoffs if they are playing like this in April.

The department of player endangerment (DoPE) needs to be ****ing drug tested. They just hit Binnington with a max fine for "high sticking" Evangelista yesterday.

Uhhh small problem with that story, jacknuts...

Now watch them reduce Rielly's already laughably low suspension. The NHL front office can **** straight off.

It's $5k for being careless. You're making a mountain out of a molehill.

Seems like right call to me. This falls more into pest/annoyance bucket…hard to see any intent to injure…or any reason for suspension.

Pull Shesty w/ 5:34 to go!

RANGERS WIN 6-5!!!

curr-a-zee ending...
-mike drop-

If the isles scored that it would be called no goal. League needed the rangers to win this game

What on Earth are you two looking at? He was tapping his post. He didn't even know the player was behind him. The player skated toward him. And Binnington immediately went to check on him/apologize for the accident.

The motivated perception around here is surreal.

Those 2 outdoor games rocked!
