That Canadiens team was the best ever. No question in my mind.BillP. wrote: Mon Feb 24, 2020 8:57 amYeah, they only won 8 games that year. And then 2 years later the Canadiens did the opposite and only lost 8 that year - haBluesSK wrote: Mon Feb 24, 2020 12:36 amThat was a historically awful team.

Had to look it up.
Bill Mikkelson of the 74-75 Washington Capitals has the all time single season record for worst plus/minus at a negative 82. He played defense, or at least tried to - ha

77If you don't already, today is a great day to follow Mike Commodore on twitter. He is usually ahead of many of the trades and he's kind of funny.
KA-KAW!

He obviously knows people from his playing career, but I think he's just kind of fucking around.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!

81Between him and Kovalchuk, it's a big day for old guys that were UFAs at certain points in the season.

Re: NHL Trade Deadline News and Rumor Thread
83Think of all the talent that's passed thru there recently. I'd be beyond disgusted if I were a Sens fan.

Re: NHL Trade Deadline News and Rumor Thread
86They are always looking for wingers that can play with Crosby/Malkin. He's smart and can still skate. I think it's fine for a team that really has to win now.

90Kinda bummed he's not comin to St. Louis, but didn't wanna them to pay the going rate, & reeeaaallyy glad Colorado doesn't get him.

Re: NHL Trade Deadline News and Rumor Thread
93I didn't want him here. He's big and fast but doesn't play smart. "Yakupov, but tall" is a bit of an exaggeration, but has the right idea. Acquisition cost was going to be stupid. Rangers should've flipped him and re-signed in the summer.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!
Re: NHL Trade Deadline News and Rumor Thread
94Well, by no means is he a superstar, but I think he'd have fit very nicely along side Perron & O'Reilly. He's likes to be physical w/ speed, & that's what the Blues like.Dave's a mess wrote: Mon Feb 24, 2020 10:19 amI didn't want him here. He's big and fast but doesn't play smart.

That said, yes, the cost would have been enormous & likely not worth the player, so it all turned out ok in the end
Re: NHL Trade Deadline News and Rumor Thread
95Damn. Here's why they called the press conference. Not to announce the extension.
So, Lundqvist won't be traded either, it seems.
Re: NHL Trade Deadline News and Rumor Thread
96Aha! I called Kreider staying with NY.
Pretty slim pickings out there now. Blues should just stand pat.
