So Sass was sent down yesterday to accrue, but recalled today along with Lekk and McWard.

I wonder what the thought process is with this?

Sounds like Miller Demko and Forbort are all close to returning.

I hope so. The media tards seem hell bent on trading JT before he gets back. I hope that when he gives his presser once he returns that he thanks the fans for their support, and tells the media to fuck off.
The Cup is soooooo ours!!!!!!!

I hope he doesn't say anything. I'm not interested in his personal problems.

I just hope he's back to being his old self on the ice again.

Hopefully Miller has a colonoscopy to renew his asshole

Which media tards want JT traded?

Yeah, it's hard to tell what they're up to with these moves.

They've finally stopped accruing cap space... for today at least.

But when Miller + Demko return... and Silovs + someone else are sent down... they will be accruing again.

(Hronek would technically still be on LTIR, but if they're not using that cap space, they would accrue)

They could theoretically send a player or two back down right away and start accruing again.

(only $599K over cap right now).

So they are temporarily using LTIR to have the flexibility to make all these moves?

But again, I don't get why they're making these moves.

Using LTIR also triggers performance bonuses calculations in ways in which I'm fuzzy.

Maybe a trade is incoming, who knows...

A trade on the forefront seems the most likely scenario, particularly given Allvin’s penchant for proactive management

EP's elevated play post Miller departure is an uncomfortable coincidence.

Hopefully he's not truthfully that much of a pussy.

As AP said in an offline conversation the other day with rat-a-tat-tat and I, neither is winning without the other.

There is mutual need in place.

If there is indeed an issue figure it the fuck out.

Are you suggesting that an elite athlete can be scared by a teamate to the point that it impacts his performance?

If that was the case, then wouldn't it be Pettersson who needed a break and not the bully?

Take care..

That's been niggling away in the back of my melon as well. I am pretty sure it's a coincidence but what if...

As I've noted, Scooter's skating style has changed coincidental to his slightly better play.

His knees are no longer touching one another.

More like he is getting his confidence back after a niggling sever bout of tendonitis. That shit can take 10-12 months sometimes if it keeps getting reaggravated.
