    I'm kinda thinking about the same thing. And I have to wonder about dropping the PTO on Halak. He could be kinda useful about now.

    I was in AP English for three years but I can no longer remember all the parts of speech by name and couldn't diagram a sentence if I had to.

    I'LL TAKE IT YOU MEANT OLDER THAN DIRT Which I have said a few times m'self. At 81 I've had a lot of years, miles and experiences and have a had a wonderful time at it. More than most ever will: raced sports cars (won SCCA SEDIV class championship and every race in 1978), have a commercial...

    Seems kinda overdone. At our coast (river) - house for years I raised oysters in cages but it wasn't easy being in Raleigh most of the time. As we are likely going to be here more I may get back into it. Mighty nice having fresh oysters for th' pluckin'. Clams didn't work out but lots of...

    I was NOT preferring Tarasenko over Nylander, no way. It's just that if Nylander comes to naught then Vlad might be better than zero - and yes there some other forwards who could..., could be better than zero or... busts. My post was after midnight and I musta been tired. The reference...

    Sens sign Tarasenko for $5 mil. Donnie Waddle says we couldn't afford him. OK, not without moving somebody out and that is different for trading for forward power scoring, but I don't have high confidence on Nylander. I'd be delighted beyond anything but... Lindholm???

    Are we at a place to really, truly contend for the CUP this season, not just soon? We can expect Bunting w/20-25 goals, Svech & Aho with 30-35, maybe Jarvis & Necas w/20+, KK, Staal, Fast, M'nook, Noesen, Turbo, Burns, Skjei, TDA: 10-15+..., add it up... yet we here don't make decisions just...

    I suspect: Slavin - Burns Orlov - DeAngelo Skjei - Chatfield I'm kinda pleased with the TDA signing at a really reasonable $$$ figure. Would EK65 have been much more productive for around $9 millions? Now figure out how to get Nylander for less than that $9 mil. and make it so. And if so...

    YES on an extension. It looks like we may lose Pesce as it is, so... And there's a lot of noise about going after Karlsson at high cost - would we rather have an 80 point 'defenseman' at $8-9 mil who adds nothing to D or the same $$$ on needed forward. And he might consider it more likely...

    We don't know what it would take to get W. Nylander but it looks like Leafs may not be able to keep him but he is what we really need!

    OH CRAP! Isn't that wat we got Bunting for without the certainty of waayyy too many penalties against. This guy couldn't score in a whore house with a roll of hundreds. We need some serious offensive production and Waddell wastes $$$$ on detrius.

    My 'understanding' is that Grier wanted (the rights to) Nishukin and that killed the deal! Jeez, he is gonna be in the KHL for another, what 2...3 years. To me that was a dumb-ass thing, if accurate! (Freidman, Shanya???) Horvat was the one that would have pushed us up!!! Trading Kotkiniemi...

    Elias Lindholm, part_duh? What's his $$$??? Last season he potted 42 goals, 40 A's - 80 pts. This to date 17G, 34A. He left under difficulties but under a different coach, many players and even staff. He wouldn't be my first (or 2nd?) choice but depending on how things shake with the trades...?
