Aaaaaand Rinaldo gets 8 lol. In other news WTF happened to Mike Richards? Dude, where's my career? Can't believe he doesn't have anything left at the age of 30. Crazy. He was a slow skater to begin with. Remember when people thought he was a better player than Bergeron and Kesler. and he might have been once. There are a few guys without good wheels that have had productive careers into their mid 30's Luc Robitaille comes to mind not many others |

Okay the trade I'm looking for the Flyers is everyone except Roo and Voracek! Let the youngsters era begin already!! The trade I wanna see the Av's make- Ryan O'Rielly for Ekman-Larssen and perhaps Vermette. No way in HELL the Coyotes trade Ekman-Larsson. 1st off O'Reilly is not a big enough return for a #1 D-man who is only 23 who is signed thru 2018-19 at a very reasonable 5.5 M. Are you Argo in a flyers jersey No I live in Colorado, second favorite team. |

There are a few guys without good wheels that have had productive careers into their mid 30's Luc Robitaille comes to mind not many others In the beginning of their careers Richards was way better. Why, because neither Bergy or Kesler were ever the complete player Richie was. Bergy to many injuries and Kesler had more of a Danny Briere flash. Just my opinion. But Lord look at him now huh. |

I loved Sakic and Forsberg's game hated they totally dominated the Canucks back then. I'm betting that although McKinnon was worth of the 1st pick that they had of swapped spots and taken Seth Jones in hindsight |

Hard to say just yet if it was bad although both are having good seasons with the exception Mckinnon has had a few struggles this year. The dominatin back then was due to the Nucks still growing and developing the young talent they had, but it got tilted the other way last few.years. |

Evolution of the game now we are the old veteran team and yours are the youts (My Cousin Vinny vocabulary reference) although it's a shame the Av's didn't claim O'Reilly on waivers when the Flames signed him having the Flames pay half his salary would have been hilarious |

jets supposedly "listening hard" for trades of kane.
flyers need d, and have it coming.
but a line of kane, giroux, voracek would be awesome
or even putting kane and simmonds on the second line would be awesome. im thinking philly makes a run at him. maybe offers up a coburn?

oh that would be nice for the Best team in Western Canada Half way there Best thing for the Jets is to cut ties; its obviously not working out for either party. It will be interesting to see if a trade is made at the deadline where a team would have to assume some risk with him still injured or if it ends up being a draft day deal. |

The list of kids that got ran out of town before they matured and became stars elsewhere is quite long. Most recent example Tyler Seguin Lamented ones, as a Canucks fan, Cam Neely Rick Vaive |

yea, sabres doing a helluva job tanking. For which I am appreciative... although I wish they had started a couple of games earlier although showcasing a goalie for us is OK I guess.

Looks like Detroit is content with what they have. They need a RH shooting D.
Could have probably pried Cody Franson from the Maple Leafs if they were still in the Western Conference,(and they could have really used him) . Unless they didn't even try. I have heard nothing.
