Cootes will do this year in the W and maybe get in a few AHL/NHL games depending on his season goes. Next season I can see him 100% in the AHL with more time in NHL. I think this is reasonable with my rose coloured glasses on. at worse he spends 1 more year in the W and then comes up but I see the ...

Really hope Chytil rebounds this year, Raty is not close to a #2 C.

Small Euro scorer who thrived on big ice with lots of room but isn't seeing it translate over to the North American rink at the pro level for all of the reasons that UW listed while I was typing . It's not a stretch to say he won't pan out as a top-6 NHL forward. Happens all the time. In fact it is ...

At some point we have to see what we have in Raty. This is the year to let him prove himself. A centre may come free into the season. Maybe not. But lets not rush it. HW, if you listen to the media 2/3 of league are looking for a #2 C. A trade will be damn expensive and any UFA will damn expensive ...

I can’t keep up with nicknames, who is sushi again. I know who scooter is.

So the only change is Kane and no drama?

And hoping like hell the EP returns to form.

The more I read about the more excited about the pick. Not just his hockey skills but he seems to be a natural leader.

Canucks better not trade him.

Good post Mëds, exactly.

There is little to show in his history that he can go a full season without a significant injury. Just say no and trade for some good assets to a GM that is desperate for a injury free Demko.

I am still shocked they actually picked and a Canadian and a Centre.

With no trade announced I see the Canucks actually picking.

AMAZING

We really don’t know how this draft class or any draft class turns out until a few years later. The 2017 class was supposed to be a shitty class but a lot of gems came out of that one. The 2016 class was supposed to a great class but a lot of busts and clunkers came out of that one. There will a ...

Ha ha, what a bunch of complete dumb fucks we have as management. I have no hope for this team ever.

So word out of Edmonton is that they will work with Viktor Arvidsson on a trade. He makes 4 million per and has one more year left in his deal. Now the Oilers were said to be in on Drew O'Connor. How about a one for one swap? O'Connor makes 2 million so it would add only 2 million to our cap. We ...

This is fantastic and really builds up confidence for the players which I hope translates to NHL.

Does this mean bye be Demko?

Sedins never said that. Indeed To be honest this board has become a joke with non-stop speculation of speculation of speculation, and plus all the deliberate self-manifested heresay Amen brother. This usually happens every year but I find it even worse than normal now. I just usually scroll through ...
