Trade Deadline Thread

[Preston]

It's changed quite a bit and caused him to reevaluate his team building/depth building philosophy. Which is fine. GM's evolving is good. I just hope he's right.

Maybe next time he won't acquire the Kerfoot's of the world to fill out his roster. Might be a positive.

Nick Petan, Tyler Ennis, Pontus Aberg, Pierre Engvall, Alex Kerfoot (soon?), Mikheyev, Kase, or even Spezza types filling out rosters seems to be a thing of the past. He's tripling down on Acciari's and Lafferty's of the world. It wasn't long ago when Kyle was gushing over Engvall's metrics and called him a key "core" piece of their depth. But this has shifted. And maybe that's okay. Nothing else has worked.

Even every year they lose the offseason presser is always the same. "We need to get tougher to play against."

 

[Preston]

Yup, it's good to see him evolve.

Nylander Kampf Engvall
Spezza Blackwell Kase

had to refresh my memory of what the bottom 6 looked like last year. I can see why they wanted a makeover really.

 

[Preston]

Let’s not kid ourselves. Jacobs probably wrote that memo.

Rules for thee, not for me.

Sportsnet is free today. I hope whatever is keeping you in a waiting room is not serious

I've got TSN on in the background, and pretty sure I just heard a Home Hardware commercial that started with "dust off your hammer" and I've been laughing for 5mins.

So much is always made of cap space but every year contenders just add and add and add whoever they want regardless. There’s always ways.

Probably looking for defenseman (remember Luke Schenn was probably the 2nd or 3rd best blueliner on that team this season).

We have a couple of those.

Vancouver born and plays the position you need I think, based on hockeydb.
