  1. The NMC is with the franchise, not the city.
  2. This will never be a thing. It's much more likely that either teams are forced to protect guys with NMCs, or they'll rule it doesn't apply to expansion drafts. IMO there's a 0% chance these guys will just be exempted from the draft.
  3. Why would an expansion team move Stuart to forward? Based on our roster now, if we could only protect 3 dmen we'd probably lose Enstrom. That's a pretty solid player for them.
  4. 3 of 4 spots on the DL look pretty solid to me.
  5. I agree with all of this. There are two things about Enstrom that stick out like a sore thumb; he makes a lot of money and he doesn't shoot enough. Those are two major issues for a casual hockey fan. He's certainly not a perfect player, but he does a lot of the little things well. I will fully admit though that he drives me crazy when he passes on good shot opportunities.
  6. I don't know about everything, but I think our team looks pretty good personnel-wise right now.
  7. Can the expansion team take players who aren't in the NHL? I find it hard to believe the other GMs would allow prospects to be up for grabs. Also, what happens to guys with no movement clauses? Is their team forced to protect them?

    Another episode of "last word" with TUP.
  9. Melchiori's game was fine, with that one exception. I think his ceiling is a solid AHLer with brief stints in the NHL.

    The guy who runs that twitter account is a Riders fan and a regular on their fan site. His seat is near the front on the Chris Jones bandwagon.
  11. He's got 61 points in 34 games.
  12. We will. We have.
  13. Maata's contract hurt Trouba contract demands. Tough for them to appear reasonable when a pretty comparable player in the same situation signed for just North of $4.
  14. Forgetting what he saw and just wandering off is a real concern for a man his age.
  15. UFC

    That's quite a lineup...
  16. UFC

    Interesting rumour has GSP coming back to fight Nate Diaz. Unless GSP comes back out of shape, or gets caught in a choke while ground and pounding him, I can't see him losing this fight. He dominated Nick, and he's a better fighter than Nate is. I really think his plan was to fight McGregor, but his loss ruined that idea.
  17. Similar to how Ehlers was only racking up points in Junior b/c he was playing with Drouin.
  18. Reinhart is still young, but his career seems to be going in the wrong direction. If the Oilers end up with Matthews in the draft, I don't think there's any question RNH would be traded. It would be McDavid, Matthews, Draisaitl up the middle for the Oilers.
  19. Ovie pretty clearly let up on the hit. Reaves drove the guys head into the glass. Imo there's a big difference between the two plays.
  20. No thank you to $600. Watching on tv will be good enough for nostalgia purposes.
  21. The USA roster has an older average age than Canada...
  22. UFC

    McGregor was kicking his ass in the first round. The problem was that Diaz was big enough and had a good enough chin to take it. I don't think anybody in the featherweight division would have survived that round. He gassed in the 2nd and Diaz took over on him.
  23. Jim Kyte has to be there. Dave Ellett to. He had one of the biggest goals in Jets history.
  24. I think the value of that pick is closer to what you're saying than Goalie, except for Karlsson, who I don't think I'd trade for anybody in the league other than McDavid. Morgan Reilly or Jacob Trouba aren't going to get you the 1st overall pick.
