We do need picks for sure, but it is 2 years from now the 1st, the funny part is this is what we get for Marner at the end of the day.

Looks like you need more than picks. Watching the Leafs is painful right now. Sorry.

This just looks absurd. Should be fun, though.

So pulling your goalie down 3 with 8 minutes left is a thing now? Saw it twice tonight.

did anyone leak what the trade was? curious what parayko's value is
I read Radim Mrtka (last year's 12th overall or so) and a 1st

I'm not convinced Parayko is all that good anymore, but the Sabres just turned around and traded for two poor defensemen

Certainly makes sense. Analytics show 5-7 minutes is the correct range for down 2, so it wouldn't surprise me to learn that being more aggressive than that is necessary when down 3. Situational, as most things are, of course.

Probably another 30-60 mins for trades to roll in, but wow what a quiet deadline. Let's hope some last min blockbusters were filed on time.

Avs @ Stars tonight 7:00 CST. First game in Dallas since game 7 of last year's playoffs.

Hosting a watching party and making Chicken Alfredo. Y'all are all invited. See you soon.

If Stars can win in regulation, should have a shot at catching them for first in the Central, even though the Avs have a game in hand.

GO STARS!

Making playoff teams needing to be cap compliant and removing double retention deals really hampered the deadline.

Just did a quick search for best/worst farm systems in the NHL. At or near the bottom of every list. Sorry Phil. I'll stop twisting the knife after you've already been stabbed.

hehe, I am already rock bottom, but yes, mostly, it is slim, but we have a few promising ones in the AHL, which are probably on their way up, I guess now with the fire sale and rebuild.

Good thing is spring is opened up as no playoffs so more time! Without sounding like Matthews or Nylander or few others who are joyful they can go to their mansions and cottages.

I know news of deals always break after the deadline, but has it ever been as late as this Kadri one?

Anyway, good on Calgary for tearing it down. Question is will ownership let them stick to it for a couple of years.

So Winnipeg first overall miss playoffs
Toronto no playoffs

Oilers need a decent goalie. Backups in the league are better than what they've got. Of course anyone can get hot if they make the playoffs.

And the Oilers did not acquire a decent goalie

Well they stuck with him after his awful start as I advocated here but my point was see if he really lost it. They changed goalie coaches...he looked ok for a bit, but the last several games have been terrible... it seems clear the dude has lost it. Nobody wanted him at the deadline. Habs didn't make any moves. I think just gamble with Fowler. The kid is .935 his last 3 games, .915 overall in Laval. .902 in first ten NHL games. idk what the plan is.

Monty is crap and as I said a month or 2 ago, if his surname was Miller, he would've run out of chances long ago.

His age doesn't even work with our core, so even if he magically re-found some form to top out at a top 15 or 20 goalie in the league (his ceiling), who cares? He'll be on his way down for the middle and end portion of our Cup competing window anyway.

To be fair, he did make some nice saves, but my god, he'll let in some absolute stinkers. Take a look at Anaheim's goals and there were 3-4 of them from near the blueline that weren't even tipped. Also got scored on on the first 2 shots of the game (1 called back for being 1mm offside).
