Around the league (signings, RFAs injuries)

Tavares, Hall and Mackinnon are all scrubs when you’re lit up on blow most of the week

HNiC reported after the Canucks/Oilers game that Alain Vigneault is now unemployed.

Police have said semi westbound on 335, bus northbound on 35. Took a look on Street View, 335 has stop signs at that intersection and interestingly, a few of white crosses kitty corner to where this wreck came to a stop. Not the first rodeo for that spot.

Radim Vrbata announces retirement. Wants to go back to the Czech Repepublic with his wife and three sons. Says it’s time to get his sons home permanently so they can settle in, learn the language and culture, as well he’ll be 37 this summer.

Talked about lack of speed and time to let the younger guys take over.

Only Zetterberg left of the 1999 draft.

McKinnon is nothing special. Fast skater. He's just another meh Taylor Hall type. I'd take quite a few players from his draft class ahead of him.

You bit on the April Fools joke...

And Tavares is washed up too right ? Is that part of the same joke ?

lol it’s nice of you to defend your gimp. But he’s on record numerous times tossing busting his nuts in McKinnon’s (sic) direction.

Sam Bennett - 11 goals 15 assists 82 games (a Blob Favourite)

Nick Ritchie - 10 goals 17 assists 76 games (another Blob 2014 draft favourite)

Jared McCann - 9 goals 17 assists 67 games (Part of Blobs reasons for hating the Gudbranson trade)

[Blob Mckenzie]

lol my favourites . You meant to say I haven’t called them garbage yet like you did shout Hall, Tavar s and Mackinnon.? You are going to get Ekblad thrown in your face constantly down the road too

Meh, last summer the Dude noted (correctly) that Tavares was trending downwards the previous couple of seasons.

He didn't say "washed up" (I checked the archives).

He may have used similar language... who knows... like you, he enjoys colourful language.

Bubbles thinks Hamonic is a "stud"

Bubbles thinks Hamonic is a "stud"

At the time of the post he was. He is another guy who has gone downhill. Still a decent # 4 but no longer a top pairing guy like he was earlier in his career. I also said Calgary overpaid in the trade but that doesn’t fit your narrative

Irony is lost on Bubbles.

It's fine for him to call Dude out on something he said last summer, but you can't call Blob out for the same...

I think Tanev is a better player but Hamonic is definitely a solid defenceman. That is a hell of a top 4 in Calgary

... because "things change".

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD BLOB STOP DRINKING!!!

Has Bubbles destroyed enough livers to be MS
