Gives Montreal much needed size..................Columbus is all about size and structure, but I guess this is a good deal for them if Domi can put up points. Still trying to make up for that loss of Panarin, not to mention Duchesne as well.Dave's a mess wrote: Tue Oct 06, 2020 2:59 pm Here we go, first of the day:
Anderson nearly scored 30 2 years ago, but was hurt most of last year. He's an RFA who will need to be signed. Domi had been on the block in Montreal for a long time.

78Damn......was hoping there was a chance the Blues would take a shot at him if Petro left. I would think he could have made more on the open market.

81Looks like they got an offer they liked. He's been dealt to Ottawa.Dave's a mess wrote: Sat Oct 03, 2020 2:42 pmThat, but also Murray has been pretty lousy 2 of the last 3 years. Your point about not starter money is a good one. I guess they could probably keep Murray if they don't like the offers out there.BluesSK wrote: Sat Oct 03, 2020 1:22 pmThat Jarry contract is kind of strange. It's not really starter money and Matt Murray is only a 26 year old RFA. Teams must really be tightening their belts.Dave's a mess wrote: Sat Oct 03, 2020 10:42 am What are you up to this Saturday morning? I got some munchkins at Dunks, but if you're an NHL free agent goalie chances are you were signing a contract:
Lehner is the big one, and it's nice to see Elliott sign in a place he likes. Jarry all but confirms Matt Murray is getting traded you'd think. Also supposedly San Jose is trading for Dubnyk. They just want all the bad goalies they can get!
Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
82Ouch:
That's also a lesson in the significance of bonuses. No bonuses for Turris kept this on the option for Nashville. Still hurts down the road, but a solid benefit for the next few years with a flat cap.

86Athanasiou and Duclair among RFAs that were not given a qualifying offer by their teams by the deadline yesterday. That means they're free agents as of tomorrow. Duclair is a surprise after scoring 27 last year with Ottawa, seemingly finally putting everything together. Will be very interesting to see what kind of a deal each of those two end up with.
...but whatever, the Blues won the Cup!!!!!
Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
87Duclair must be a total shithead or something. I think I read that Ottawa was his 5th team in 6 years? Jesus! I know he has also been acting as his own agent and he apparently pissed Ottawa off with his contract demands.Dave's a mess wrote: Thu Oct 08, 2020 10:13 am Athanasiou and Duclair among RFAs that were not given a qualifying offer by their teams by the deadline yesterday.

Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
88Yeah I know Tortorella had some comments after he left about Duclair basically saying he tried to do too much with the puck, relied too much on skill and whatnot. He seemed to harness that skill the right way. 5 teams in 6 years is a red flag, but I don't fault him for wanting to be paid like a 27 goal scorer.Matangama wrote: Thu Oct 08, 2020 10:20 amDuclair must be a total shithead or something.

Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
89Buyouts flying off the shelves today. Alexander Wennberg in a surprise move by the BJs, and Cory Schneider by the Devils. Possibly more to come. The next 30 hours or so are going to be weird. Lots of guys available, but how many teams have both cap-space and don't have an internal budget or spending constraints?

Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
90I know Wennberg has had some consistency issues but he's a guy I'd be interested in if I'm the Blues.

Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
91Yeah, he seems like a good fit. Great on the PK, had 59 points a few years ago (though I have to imagine that was heavily Panarin influenced).Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Thu Oct 08, 2020 10:59 amI know Wennberg has had some consistency issues but he's a guy I'd be interested in if I'm the Blues.

Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
97Last night CBJ traded Ryan Murray for a 5th round pick. Any time you feel bad about drafting EJ, just remember that CBJ just traded a guy they drafted second overall for a 5th rounder. Pay no attention to the fact that only one of the top 5 that year turned out to be any good at all, rather than 3/5 being bubble to slam dunk Hall of Famers.
Anyway I digress, Jarmo has opened up a truckload of cap space over the last week. Is he being forced to cut payroll, or are they going to make some moves today? He still has to sign Dubois.

98God damn Army fucked this up royally. Ah well we got the cup so I'm not too mad but this team isn't going to be that great going forward.
Re: NHL Offseason Trades and Signings
99Vague rumors suggest Columbus is going to make a run at Pietrangelo. Honestly, if he leaves, I’d kind of like to see him go there. I’ll root for him if he goes to the Blue Jackets. If he goes to Vegas, then fuck him and I hope he turns out to be a massive, expensive bust.
