Oilers trade RNH + 4th overall pick to CBJ for 3rd overall pick and Savard
Oilers draft Puljujärvi
Jackets draft DuBois
>>67277366
The Donald is my everything
Question for Finns:
Would rather Pulju be developed by the Oilers, or be coached under Tortorella?
>>67277364
how many goalies are on the ice at one time finncuck
>>67277351
Some are, but not to the same extent as in America. It's becoming more and more frequent though
>trading the better player and drafting the worse prospect
seems like an Oilers sort of trade
4th overall + a D prospect no one outside Edmonton has heard of for Hamonic
Friendly reminder that Scott Stevens was a talentless goon faggot
No one is dumb enough to trade away the 2nd pick especially a pure goal scorer.
Bladet kan variera i storlek från det mikroskopiskt lilla till det jättelikt stora. Bladen hos den vita näckrosen och hos den vanliga örnbräken når ibland en längd av 1,73 meter. De mest storbladiga av alla växter tillhör näckros-, banan- och palm-familjerna. Den cirkelrunda bladskivan hos den sydamerikanska jättenäckrosen (Victoria reginae) kan ha en diameter av närmare tre meter. Etiopisk banan (Ensete ventricosum) har blad av 5,9 meter längd. Enbart bladskivan är 8,57 meter lång. Vissa palmer, till exempel den ostindiska sockerpalmen (Arenga pinnata) har blad av ända upp till 7,5 meters längd.
Will the Shorks sweep the Perds ?

More than any other sport, I think refs give in to when hockey fans moan about a hit, even when it's clean.
When is the actual draft? June?
>>67277433
round 1 is june 24th, rest june 25th
I actually woke up and felt really sad when I realized that Puiju is going to have to put up with under Torts
Everybody knows why they keep fucking it up. Kesler said as much in the post exit interview, Bruce knew and I sure as fuck hope Murray knows now, too. His announcement that the core's gotta give make me hopeful.
>>67277396
lol observe the silly primate
LA cup window has officially closed
They are winning the cup next year when Lombardi packs the roster with some good defenseman and signs Lucic
lifes a bitch and then you get die, thats why we get high, cause you never know when ya gonna go
Reminder that the Oilers were one number away from Number 1 and we missed out on what would have been one of the greatest meltdowns in hockey history.
>>67277367
nice, but he will probably use it for TP when hes at the beach
now we have to deal with toronto fans for several months until they inevitably hit the bottom of the standings and disappear again
>>67277467
What the fuck have we done? We knew we were going to be shit and we were. The leafs have had nothing but bad luck for decades. God forbid something positive actually happens to them for once.
>>67277476
>guys Babcock will fix everything!
With competent management (>implying) and prospects who pan out the Leafs will probably be playoff viable in around 5 or 6 seasons
>>67277466
I'm sayin, that's what this is all about right?
Clothes, bankrolls, and hoes you know what I'm sayin?
>>67277486
>5 to 6 seasons
I don't think it will take that long. If what you said happens it'll be 2 to 3 years and they'll be a playoff team. More than likely a first round exit but that will depend on how well their prospects pan out.
>>67277467
>bad luck
thats an interesting way to put it, i would call it bad management resulting in some of the worst personnel decisions in nhl history
>>67277497
I won't argue the incompetence of previous management but there was also bad luck involved in it as well. Ferguson and Burke were fucking retards that had the organization stagnant and in no man's land.
Finns are literally subhuman. Just look at Pulju.
Fucking send them to special olympics already

Which is more likely, that Nill is a GM of the Year finalist despite paying 10.4M for >Finnish goaltending, or that Boudreau is a Coach of the Year nominee even though he was fired? I could honestly see both happening.
>tfw your GM drafts >>>Finnish goaltending
Fuck Finns. They suck cock.
>>67277550
>coach fired before winning coach of the year
Has this ever happened?
Trotz should win the Jack Adams but the Boudreau situation would be funny.
But honestly the Ducks finished the regular season about where expected. I don't think he should get credit for the team suckling until Christmas and then turning it around. Whereas the Caps far exceeded expectations.
Hakstol could have a shot as well.
>>67277558
I'm pretty sure Trotz will win it but the Ducks had an impressive season between the horrible start and their game 7 choke, Boudreau might make the top3
>finnish """"goaltending""""
>that look on Maatta's face after he got hit
looks like he doesn't even know where he is. Iv'e never seen such a confused face
Sullivan should be nominated as well imo. he completely turned around the Pens' season and forged a new identity and style in so little time. After the coaching chance, Pittsburgh's been among the league's top 3 teams imo
>finnish goaltending
Kari Lehtonen is a 2nd overall pick in an NHL Entry Draft.
Don't worry, your golden boy Klingberg might win the Norris some day like Stars fans and Swedes predicted after last season, you don't really need to know how to defend to win the trophy
and literally another 3on1 when periods started :D dallas defense :D
yeah he got knocked out. had trouble standing up. dirty dirty hit. Thats all orpik is good at anymore is trying injure people, because he's a fucking pylon out there. See: Hagelin goal.
Why can't dullass play defense
Since the leafs will most likely draft autism matthews, do they move Nylander to the wing or keep him at center? Bozak/kadri will probably be up against other teams top centers and in the defensive zone. Nylander in my opinion never looked like a center. He seems like he would flourish more as a winger.
Trade Marner + Gardiner for Ekblad
>>67277613
This is pure fantasy. There's no fucking way they trade ekblad especially for these 2.
>>67277613
Cats would never do that when they're so close to contending.
>>67277621

JVR for Shattenkirk makes the most sense.
>97 posts
>4 posters
Nice "sport" you got here
>that booty bothered islels fan
Most likely put him on LW, unless he takes to centre far better than Kadri but Kadri as a 2C is perfect for now and moving forward. Makes top 6 look like:
JVR - Kadri - xxx
Nylander - Matthews - Marner
For next year, with Marner drifting around 2/3rd line RW.

>yfw torts and poopoopeepee lift the cup together
Wouldn't do that as the leafs. Better to draft and develop a D than trade for injury prone guy. Plus JVR is on great contract too
Fuck shattenkirk. He's a 2nd pairing defenseman whereas JVR is a top 3 forward. Not to mention JVR is on a team friendly contract.
>>67277667
I posted this last thread
Soshnikov + Percy for Leddy + Griess
I was impressed....with his luck. His points were from (not exclusively) EN goals and secondary assists. He has incredible work ethic and is definitely better than I think he is but I would hesitate to put him on top line. Maybe PAP if he comes back.
The only player the Cats would be interested in trading Ekblad for would be Mathews.
Wouldn't hate, I love Leddy he's one of the most underrated D in the game when it comes I defensive ability. But I also love the heart and work ethic of sosh I'd be sad to part with him
Everyone is forgetting about lupul. Granted he will probably only play 40% of the season but still.
>>67277711
Lou said that he is unsure if Lupul plays another game
Lupul is going to end up on Robidas Island most likely.
Bjs are winning the cup senpai
2nd/3rd line RW on the leafs. However Lou said he doesn't believe that he's ready for the NHL in terms of size and defensive ability. What I think would be interesting is if Marner can't make the club he goes to Europe and play Swiss like Matthews. Playing children in th OHL for another year would only hurt his developmen, maybe playing somewhere against older people might be better.

There's literally NOTHING on the Oilels worth trading Hamonic for other than McDoobie and Hall.
>>67278036
I enjoy the segzy women
They can trade down and get one or they can trade the pick for an established defenceman. Taking Chychrun/Sergachev at 4 is foolish because they'll be there at 6/7.
Also, fuck left handed defencemen. Good for nothing pieces of shit.

was at the bears game tonight they won 2-1 so they advanced to the next round. what's pretty cool is the next round is bears/pens so they are playing at the same time as their NHL teams
also they have already played each other 11 times this year and have the potential to play each other 18 times which is crazy

>vlasic just went down
oh god this is how it started last time
>Marner, Matthews, and Nylander
yfw leafs are the next dynasty
If they get eliminated in 5 it will be because the top two lines didn't get their shit together and produce. Most blame would probably be heaped on second line as Williams and to a lesser extent Kuznetsov have been shit.
Orpik probably gets more blame if he plays. He has been pylon-tier.

As a Caps fan,even I know it was a bad call. Playing devil's advocate, Letang's stick was reached around and in front of the players body when he fell.
As someone watching from tv, it was a clean hit.

why don't the panthers just chain a live panther to the goal for their goalie?
>people thinking the Laffs are trading JVR
the next LW we have after JVR is fucking Soshnikov. We literally only have rookies at the LW spot. Even if we re-sign Boyes or someone similar, JVR has to occupy the top spot. Bozak is all but gone by this and Nylander played way too well in his stint at Center to be moved to wing.
Yeah Babcock prefers to put rookies on the wings, but Nylander survived his trial by fire and looked very good at a top six center role so going into next year he's probably pencilled in. Bozak will most likely be jettisoned and the Leafs are most likely going to go after a guy like Hamhuis who can sit on the 2nd pairing to help be a solid anchor.
Next years lines are most likely:
JVR - Kadri - Marner
Lupul - Nylander - Parenteau (>implying he's going to FA)
Soshnikov - Matthews - Komarov
no-one-cares
>thinking Babcock is going to put Matthews against top line competition immediately
>Thinking Komarov will reprise his top line role

Defense will just be Hamhuis - Rielly/Gardiner - Hunwick/some marlies assholes
