Around The League - 2024-25 Regular Season

McNopersonality has wasted his career by staying in Edmonton, he needs to come to Montreal where we have no expectation other than getting to the playoffs, he will fit it perfectly
He is done with Canada if he leaves , go to a USA team where the media doesnt shove it down your throat 24/7/365
 
Holland spent too much time listening to Leaf media tell him how good Campbell was. A GM has to account for that, apply correction, and offer less money or whatever.
 
If they trade for a goalie it will be for Hart or Ullmark, or someone of that caliber. Jake Allen won’t do much to address their goaltending issues as they need a legit. no. 1, and that’s not Allen at this point.

anyone ever tell you that you are a negative person counsellor?

Never ever give term to a goalie unless its the few freaks like Roy , stupid asset management
 
They could live with one bad contract, most teams figure out a way. Unfortunately, Campbell's not the only bad contract on that team. Darnell Nurse's contract is even worse and Deadmonton doesn't have the assets to ship him out, even if they wanted to. Those two combined for 17% of the cap, which is astounding.

Another issue: His contract's not the only bad thing. Campbell can't play. I don't even know if he's a backup in the NHL right now. It'd be one thing if he had a bad contract like Price, but Price was still a top tier goalie. You can't, however, live with that bad contract if he's the starting goaltender, he's playing like he's an AHLer and the backup's somehow even worse.

Deadmonton lost again to Vancouver - how the fuck is it November 7th and they've played three times already? And we don't play Toronto again until March? The NHL, man... not a serious league - and they're already running out of time. They'll probably fire the coach soon, which might give them a temporary boost. But in the end, Jack Campbell & Stuart Skinner are what they are·: Backup goalies at best.

I think Deadmonton only has one way out of this and that's my trade proposition. Get out of the Campbell contract and try your hand with Carter Hart, despite all the assets that will need to be given up. They might just be punting on the season otherwise.
We can trade them Allen for Bouchard.

Allen is an improvement on Campbell and Skinner. And he is affordable.

Late in tonight's game against the Dallas Stars, the Flames were down a goal and Jonathan Huberdeau wasn't on the ice in the final minute. Daily reminder that former Panther Jonathan Huberdeau is in the first year of an eight year, buyout proof contract where 75% of the money is paid out in signing bonuses.

After being benched in the final minute of a close game a week ago, Calgary Flames star forward Jonathan Huberdeau saw the next logical step of his regression: He was benched for the entire third & final period of last night's game.

I guess Sutter wasn’t the problem. No moving that contract at this point.
