He's all they can afford MJ,the Habs pay Price 10.5M for six more years after this one and Weber 7.85M for six more too...…..with full recapture in Weber's case. |

There's no doubt that Weber's still a better player than Seabs but he missed a lot of games over the last two years and he's signed for two years longer. He has stayed healthy and he's played well so far this year but SIX more with full recapture is dam scary! Doughty gets 11M for seven more after this year and Karlsson gets 11.5M for seven more too and both turn 30 this year so we're not alone...….misery loves company!LOL! |

How in the hell do the Jets lose their top four D-men and stay competitive?
Organization wide confidence?
System?
Coaching?

I have talked with some fans from other teams and been told their team system is from top to bottom the same. From the parent club through the AHL and even the ECHL. The same philosophy in all 3 leagues. Bruins and Pens is speed and aggressive play. Now I had the silly notion the Hawks were trying the same thing. The 3 coaches and staff would work from the same page so when the younger guys moved up it would be smooth transitions for the players. But apparently I was mistaken. Hawks philosophy is to confuse young players. |

Looks like the NHL is going to introduce a "Code of Conduct" rule for the league.
I guess this is needed unfortunately.

How the hell do the Penguins beat the Blues and Binnington, 3-0, without Crosby and the Hawks get shutout 4-0 against the Blues and Allen. Man, that Hawk team must really be more awful than I thought. |

I'm on the phone and too incapable/lazy to check contract/term of Hall and the av's cap space but if the avs did this i think it'd put them over the top. (If they aren't already there)
So if i was sakic i'd pull the trigger.

Cheers.
I saw miles wood's name mentioned as a possible throw in with hall on an unrelated tweet a couple days back.
Not a lot of offense but he can fly. He'd fit in well with the avs.

I kinda think they need a dman worse, though.... |

5 years after jean beliveau dies (his funeral service was in the Bell Centre in '14), they have a memorial service for him at a boxing arena in montreal. now, i have a long rooted deep hatred for the habs, but there's no denying that beliveau could make a case for the classiest guy in the NHL. or maybe right up there in many pro sports. apparently he replied to every piece of fan mail he recieved. anyways, whether you've heard of him or not, have a read of this well written article if you can. beliveau was the epitome of class. that's the bar that all players/people should strive for. www.nhl.com/news/jean-beliveau-100-greatest-nhl-hockey-players/c-284179630 |

I am sure they'll add a piece or two. and, tbh, I hope they do. short of a miracle run by our boys (carried by a 'tender into and through the playoffs), I don't see me having anyone to root for this spring save whomever is playing the blows. the Avs might be the best team to knock those guys out this year (and in the next few years). so I am all for it. |

I love Byram, but t this point he still just a prospect. Hall is a proven scorer who’s always been on a horrible team. I make that trade if Hall has one year left on his deal. Not an expiring deal. That’s way too expensive to not have him for more than a rental. No one gives up a 4th overall pick for a rental. More pieces would have to be added to make that work.
However, Hall would literally make the Avs the favourites. They’d be unstoppable and either go to a Cup, or win the thing outright. Halls being dealt, where to is the next question. I’d love to see him wear #4 for the Indian head, he’s a hell of a player!!!

Don't know if any of us noticed but the Wild have flown past us in the standings. They have 32 pts, we at 29.
They have gone 7-0-3 the last 10 and we have 4-5-1
Only good news is we are tied with Trashville.

They have gone 7-0-3 the last 10 and we have 4-5-1 Only good news is we are tied with Trashville. We are the 7th worst team in the league. I just don’t think it will get much better. I not see the Hawks as total door mats, but they’re a team that’s definitely on the down swing. The worst part is this Hawks org really can’t even turn to youth too much as they don’t have much. This Hawks org has literally 2-3 kids worthy of a spot. So we’re still a few years away from turning a corner. We need 10 kids battling for 6-7 spots. So I still think it’s best to shed salary and walk away from retreads like Saad and Shaw, collect a few more higher picks and start the rebuild. I wouldn’t even attempt to “go for it” at this point. I’d have to think Stan has the reigns till seasons end, if no playoffs, no more Stan!!! |

Oh, do you mean facts like the Blues having Steen and Tarasenko missing? Yes, you can tell me that they had all their dmen so the Hawks are excused from scoring, but then how did the Blues score without Steen and Tarasenko? C'mon, GT, there is something very wrong with this version of the Hawks' team. It is obvious when one just watches the games and observes the two sides and how each controls the game and responds to the other. I'd like to see them do better, but when they don't, I am not going to hesitate pointing out that they suck. I know you are the constant optimist and that is great, but if it is unfair for me to point out that they are not playing well, then what is the point of a board where all opinions are welcome. Do I criticize you for being the unstoppable optimist? No, and that is fine with me, if you are, so chill a little about my posts. |

avs took a hit tonight. grubauer left with a LBI....it's presumed he's re-injured his groin, an injury he just returned from. even worse, cale makar got knocked out of the game by a hard hit from marchand. (clean, imho) this is the best replay i can find. kudos to makar, if you watch it far enough into the video you'll see he saw that marchand was coming but he didn't bail out. hard to tell what the injury is.i'd guess neck or shoulder. www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/cale-makar-leaves-game-hit-brad-marchand/ |
