The Fantastically Beautiful Joyously Superfun 22-23 Season Celebration Thread

Dubas with his trade board right now

 

[leafman101]

The 4th line is way better. They are missing a goal scoring winger on the 3rd line, but they already were and they have 9 NHL d and $1 mill in cap space so it’s coming

Also Knies.

 

[MindzEye]

I like the idea of Crouse

If Dubas pulls off Boston's 1st for Crouse with 50% retention, I would be pretty impressed.

Crouse-ROR-Acciardi would be a motherfucker of a "playoff hockey" line to play against

whoever we get using Boston’s first must score the series winning goal against boston. That’s the rule

 

[mbow30]

Maybe they wanted guts w bigger d energy. @soco22 is your cuz having a pool party any time soon so we can compare?

 

[Volcanologist]

whatever you think of Dubas, he has rolled out his cock this deadline. this is the definition of going for it.

 

[hockeylover]

I saw someone say (not here, Twitter) before all this that Dubas was "really conservative" and it kinda surprised me. I think the opposite.

There's a whole bunch of big risks he's taken.

 

[MindzEye]

So currently, until further notice...we're this?

Bunting-Matthews-Nylander
Tavares-O'Reilly-Marner
Kerfoot-Kampf-Jarnkrok
ZAR-Acciari-Lafferty

Rielly-Lilly
McCabe-Brodie
Gio-Holl

Sammy
Murray

Liked it better when Lafferty was a ZAR replacement and not linemate, and thinking about that 3rd line together in a playoff series makes me want to hurl.

Guys on overdrive pumping their chests and saying this is proving the eye testers right. The guys that drove the fans crazy are either traded (engvall) or are likely to be sat (Holl). They all think Schenn is 100% a regular and Holl (who was a placeholder for Schenn in practice today paired with Mo) is the odd man out.

Is it just me or does the usage tell a totally different story on Holl?

 

[hockeylover]

So we have a 2023 first, 2024 first, Knies, Niemela and the rest of our top 10 prospects as currency, and 9 defenseman and some smoke around Kerf.

 

[trujaysfan]

I'm entirely on side with the idea that our bottom 6 have been epic playoff failures so far and something had to be done.

I'm just not sure that

Kerfoot-Kampf-Jarnkrok
ZAR-Acciari-Lafferty

is what I had in mind

Kneis-Kampf- yarn
Foot-acciari-taffy

 

[hockeylover]

 

[hockeylover]

this is imo, fairly obvious, but chris johnston also says more moves likely coming.

also discussed:
winnipeg, calgary jvr
edmonton bjugstad, bertuzzi
red wings likely sellers - bertuzzi, vrana, zadina

 

[Aberdeen]

trades are crack

 

[Preston]

And tbh I'm getting the shakes waiting for LOFs fresh reaction

 

[MindzEye]

Burying his sorrows in a pile of dry chicken burgers at the moment

 

[Aberdeen]

Does anyone worry about team chemistry and all these new faces? I don't know that I do, but I don't know, could be a thing. We haven't lost any "main characters" at least.
