June 15, 20178 yr comment_268669 well he must have been part of the 1.0 era.  yeah I'm giving Maurice one more chance, but who could possibly be available if he gets canned? I wonder if Arniel is available, I mean he did get the Moose to the Calder finals in 09 Edited June 16, 20178 yr by iHeart

I wonder if Arniel is available, I mean he did get the Moose to the Calder finals in 09 Obviously @iHeart Arniel sucks. Id probably look at a possibly soon to be fired coach depending on what happens this year... barry trotz types of look for a young up and comer. Who? No idea.  Perhaps an NCAA coach would work. Think id prefer someone who can relate more to a younger roster and someone who uses the talent to the best of their abilities. Puts them in position to succeed Edited June 15, 20178 yr by Goalie
June 15, 20178 yr comment_268679 Housley will have his work cut out for him, but what rookie HC doesn't...? I'll be rooting for him - except against the Jets.

June 15, 20178 yr comment_268690 Seems about right for players of his potential coming off their elcÂ
June 15, 20178 yr comment_268703 The kid is good...he was my favourite player from that draft class. Honestly thought I'd take him at #1 that year, if I were a GM. Despise the Habs with every fibre of my being, so it'll be tough to cheer for him...

June 16, 20178 yr comment_268885 Bob Mac reprting Wild's Jonas Brodin likely to be traded. Hope Jets are in on that. 23 years old. 6'1, 194lbs. LHD.

June 17, 20178 yr Author comment_269154 http://www.sportsnet.ca/hockey/nhl/report-blue-jackets-reach-deal-vegas-protect-players/ Quote The Columbus Blue Jackets have a trade in place with the Vegas Golden Knights that will be announced at the NHL Expansion Draft on Wednesday, according to Aaron Portzline of The Columbus Dispatch. The Blue Jackets are expected to give Vegas the 24th-overall pick in this year’s NHL Draft, and a prospect in return for Golden Knights GM George McPhee selecting one of Ryan Murray, Matt Calvert, or William Karlsson.

Â I wonder how many other teams they can bully into deals like this.

June 17, 20178 yr comment_269214  Arizona to trade goalie Mike Smith to the Calgary Flames in short time. That pretty much frees up both CAL goalies now. Official: Mike Smith to Flames for G Chad Johnson, D Brandon Hickey & conditional 3rd rounder. Trade freeze now in place.  Edited June 17, 20178 yr by FrostyWinnipeg
June 18, 20178 yr comment_269441 A player refusing to waive his NMC falls 100% on the GM, not the player. It's shocking that people expect players to waive their NMC. That's not how business works. Don't want to have a problem with NMC's? don't hand them out like chiclets. Edited June 18, 20178 yr by Judd
