Thanks buddy. How are the Flyers doing? Sitting on that number two overall pick? well - it's obvious you're nuts - so i just felt the need to make you feel special and maybe we can keep this in a thread you feel like you know what you're talking about since you've bumped your own thread 20,000,000 times. do you need somebody to talk to? i'll be your friend big daddy. we're all here for a reason. no reason to be hostile fella. if you want to talk offline so i can calm you down and if you need somebody to talk to - let me know go hockey!

You got "hostile" out of that? Are you going to tell me about the Flyers or not, buddy?

You got "hostile" out of that? Are you going to tell me about the Flyers or not, buddy? what would you like to know? i'm highly disappointed in Hextall as a GM. i thought it was great pairing the Schenn Brothers together but it flopped and what was need was to tear them down. thought Girioux who was once considered Top 5 in the World has highly disappointed and isn't a true leader. i don't think Steve Mason is one that can lead one to a Stanley Cup - and all i hear about is - 'all you need is a hot goaltender'. nonsense. i think it's all around play and i'll start with defensemen. all i hear about is the flyers have young steady defenseman and a ton of prospects in the minors. like Ghost. he was supposed to the be the next 'mark howe' . sophomore slump? you tell me? im tired of hearing about prospects in the minors (same goes for the phillies) hextall coming off his run with the Kings has shown Squat. zip. there's 'NOTHING" to get excited over them about despite he Stepford Wives and Cult that continues to fill that rink while they miss the playoffs when every team finishes .500. it's a disgrace how anybody in my eyes can support that team - i'm disgusted with the Phillies rebuild - who's even more putrid? the flyers - Know why it doesn't get any recognition? ?? nobody cares accept the 17,000 zombies that still wear their bobby clarke jerseys on a nightly basis accepting that crap and bowing to Ed Snider's grave thanking him for a Stanley Cup in 1975! disgraceful fanbase.

The Flames, determined to finally get a goalie to solve their annual problems at the position, have aggressively attained Mike Smith.

I get that he's an RFA, but a 3rd is all the Habs could get for Beaulieu? That's a good deal for Buffalo.

Thoughts on the just-released lists of players protected from Vegas?
Some guys are all but guaranteed to be heading to LV - like Vatanen and Fleury. Kinda shocked that Florida left Marchessault exposed. Also weird that the Isles chose to protect 5D, 3F - and didn't include De Haan as one of those D. And it's not like they have the Preds defense there.

Hossa will miss the entire 17-18 season. Suddenly developed allergies to the equipment.

Penguins won the Stanley Cup. What about 2017?

Offseason off to a bang with that TB/MTL swap. I like Drouin as much as the next guy, and if nothing else he's a more known commodity than Sergachev at this point. The Habs are getting an exciting, super talented guy who could still get better....but...Sergachev has a chance to be really damn good, and is this a precursor to a Galchenyuk deal? I'm not sure I like Drouin much better than Galchenyuk, so I'm curious to see if the return for Galchenyuk is as good as Sergachev/2nd if he indeed gets dealt, which seems likely. A little more risk here from Tampa, but that's a very fair return for Drouin, one that has the upside to win this deal outright. You gain some cap flexibility since Drouin is an RFA, and Drouin would have to be protected from Vegas, so that opens a spot. Interesting deal. I was really hoping to see Drouin end up on Colorado, reunited with Nathan Mackinnon.

No alarms and no surprises on the awards.
Hart: McDavid Lindsay: McDavid Vezina: Bobrovsky Norris: Burns Calder: Matthews Selke: Bergeron Adams: Tortorella GM: Poile NHL 18 Cover: McDavid
Vegas selections - fine as far as expansion drafts go. The defense is decent enough. I like the Marchessault/Perron pickups. Forward core still needs lots of work but the whole roster will look different after the draft and July 1st. How do Penguins fans feel about the era of Fleury coming to an end?

Jordan Eberle to Islanders for Ryan Strome. Never been an Eberle fan.

Arizona got better today. + Stepan, Hjalmarsson, Raanta.
On top of Hjalmarsson, why'd Chicago trade Panarin just to get Saad back? Also, the whole buildup to their pick was embarrassing.
Nico Hischier will be a good player but I can't help but think the Devils may come to regret letting Patrick go to Philly one day.
I like Vancouver's Pettersson pick. Maybe Benning's first good draft pick. LA got a steal in Vilardi, while the Rangers hopefully got another Hugh Jessiman.

HOF inductees: Andreychuk, Selanne, Kariya, Goyette, Recchi, Drake, Jacobs.
Thoughts? Fitting for Kariya and Selanne to get in together.

Hockey HOF has a lower bar, I'm fine with that because they've always been consistent about that. Kariya had 989 points in 989 games. Won Olympic gold in 2002, won silver before the NHL arrived in 1994. I would say that Daniel Alfredsson was a finer player than Andreychuk & maybe even Recchi, yet he'll get in - the other guys had to wait themselves yes?

Yes - they're known for having had to wait a while.

Dallas are looking real strong. They've fixed their goaltending and added a top talent in Radulov to an already great offense. Add Hanzal, Methot, Oettinger, Heiskanen, that's a great summer. Unless Hitchcock completely stifles them in the worst way, I've got them heading to the Western finals at least.
