LeBrun reporting it's going to be Verbeek.
I'm kinda surprised it's not an internal hire but I'm ok with getting an Yzerman protege.
Looks like the job is his for sure. I guess the other 2 candidates were AGM Botterill in Seattle and the AGM for the Rangers Ryan Martin.

Even then, though, you're talking about one year. Cam's deal is up after the next season. Unless it's dire, I'm sure they'll find a way to manage for one season. And if it is dire, you can always go the buyout route with Fowler as a last resort.
I think this is moot anyway. I don't think Chychrun is worth the assets the Coyotes are asking for, but even if he were, it makes the most sense if Lindholm is out the door. And then the salary is of no issue.
He’s signed through 2025 isn’t he ?

Terry not being selected to the ASG this year is a complete sham .

First in the pacific yes, but everyone else seems to have 2-3 games in hand on us atm. This season so far has been refreshing to say the least.I’ll be pretty happy with whatever the outcome this season.

Was just listening to the new spittin chiclets podcast today. Ryan Whitney was talking about Bob Murray and how mean and vindictive he was to certain people. The hockey gods fired him for us. Hoping this doesn’t effect the good hockey we’ve been playing this year.

That’s actually a semi disappointing return compared to the rumored Calgary deal. Krebs is highly overrated imo.
That rumoured deal was exactly that, a rumour. If it was true and they passed on that , then they are even dumber then we all thought.

After all this Jack Eichel drama, that is the package Buffalo got?!😂
The Calgary package must have been hear-say I guess. There’s no way the Sabres said no to Tkachuk plus everything else. I feel bad for Tuch, the guy has been nails for the Knights .-

rumor is it's down to Calgary or Vegas....I think we may be officially out
(of course, no one is ever out, but this is the first time we've basically not been considered in the sweepstakes)
I wonder if us looking a bit better this season made Bob want to hold on to some more pieces...
We all know that he’s a master at holding on to things until they expire. I was in the trade for Eichel camp since the beginning , but with the teams play so far , I’ve happily slipped out in the middle of the night to the other camp.

I was obviously commenting on the ESPN coverage.
Not sure how you could have such a difficult time understanding that. Perhaps next time, hire someone to help you comprehend posts? or perhaps read slower.
They have people who you can hire as well. They’ll teach you how to be less condescending .

If we do move on from Gibson, I’m confident that Stolarz can hold down the starting job until Dostal is ready. Albeit he hasn’t played a ton of games In his career , he’s still posted no lower than a .920 SV% in 2 seasons with us , and we suck. No one shows him any love . He’s solid .

It’s definitely a risk though. I’d put Volkov in a similar category as Djoos. I’m not going to be surprised if he’s claimed.
Kids a good hockey player , had some strong games last year at the end of the season. Why would we even risk waivers with him? Head scratcher for sure. Apparently if you show any type of offensive output you’re going to get sent down.

Why? He's been in the league since 2010 and in that time observed plenty. With the Eichel debacle he's deciding to speak out on what he's seen. His first tweet was today and already the NHL wants to meet with him to discuss his statement. Good for him.
According to him , Buffalo ruined his ankle surgery and the follow up rehab. I like seeing the league and others being held accountable. This league has been notorious when it comes to transparency. Good on him .

Check out Eric Stephens at The Athletic. He's been prolific since camp has begun.
It’s definitely worth the small subscription price . It also feeds his Twitter posts there as well, for those of you who don’t dabble in the Twitter world .

Anyway read that Gibson article in the athletic? Saying he wants to win, everyone wants to win...while we are rebuilding....just...obviously everyone wants to win, but you can't do both. If you want to rebuild, you're not gonna win.... if you're winning...you're probably not rebuilding (unless you're just super lucky!) I think we need to trade him. Honestly, he was an untouchable for me or a while...and I'd still hate to lose him...but he can do more good somewhere else and we'd get a good amount back...and we probably are just wasting away some of his best years. I think he'll be great for a while, but right now he needs to be on a competitive team.
get him over to Edmonton and then we get Draisitle lol
I couldn’t agree more. Guys fed up. Trade him to Dallas along with Manson for Robinson and Hintz . Money doesn’t add up, but we all know we could retrieve a great package for him . Help the rebuilding process.

Jesus 😳 that pass from Zegras to Mctavish for the goal was a heat seeking missile . I could get used to that for years to come . Wow

I believe we got hockey tonight! Young guys take the ice at 5 and will be streamed online
It’s about time, right!?!?
Looks like Zegras is on a line with Perrault and Tschergel tonight. power play 1 was Zegras, Drysdale, Perrault, Mctavish, and Groulx. Sounds deadly ! -

Well there goes my plan of acquiring Dvorak. I wonder if BM has blisters on his behind from all that sitting around.
Pretty brutal . Is it weird that I don’t even sigh anymore when this stuff happens . All jokes aside, what is this guy doing (not doing) ? It’s past laughable , now it’s just painful.

Carolina is already loaded , now they get Kotkaniemi, sheesh. If only they had some really solid goaltending, they’d be ridiculous.

So, the guy had 5 months off and didn't even bother to have a surgery to fix his neck. And whoever obtains Eichel, have to place him on IR for 3 or 4 months until he recovers. And even when he's ready to go, is he going to be the same player? As much as I am skeptical about BM, I have to give him a credit for not going after this player.
The surgery Eichel wants has a much quicker recovery time. It is nowhere near the 3-4 month range . If he had the surgery when he wanted he would have been cleared before training camp this season.

Because guys who are in the same ballpark as he is - Nurse, Jones, etc. - are getting those deals. The offensive numbers are low enough that he might not get quite that much, but I'd be very surprised if he's not offered at least $8 million over 6 years, and that's probably conservative.
He’s not even close to the ballpark though imho. That’s what I’m trying to say! I understand that The market was annihilated when those two signed contracts. If you could give Hampus a contract for what you believe he is worth, what would it be ?

The idea is if you can get a Boqvist + in a package for Lindholm, that’s so much better for the rebuild. That then allows you to add veterans and sign people when you’re ready to compete instead of being stuck with guys you have. I wouldn’t hate keeping Lindholm, although he’s had trouble staying healthy. But having to sign a 9x9 or something in that park really turns me off. If you can add another 1st round pick and a top end prospect, you absolutely HAVE to do it. We can’t commit to current roster pieces when that roster has been the worst in the league.
Exactly this … Why does everyone believe he will ask for that kind of money? The guy hasn’t played a full season, yet alone been able to stay healthy. His offensive numbers are nowhere near anyone making that sort of AAV . Besides his +/- , offensive stats don’t do him any favors.
Anyone who thinks he’s worth ,or deserves money like Nurse are out of their minds . Trade him to the Islanders if he asks for that kind of money.-

Gibson -> NJ for Blackwood, Holtz.... yeah? too much? too little??? maybe include PK? NJ looks pretty tight right now...but i dunno about their goaltending...especially since they just got Berniers lol
That 9mil cap hit ? Hellllll no. I actually like Blackwood a lot tbh, Holtz is a shiny new toy to play with as well. Maybe add a 2nd or something and I could live with that , maybe.

Love this hire. In his interview he seemed to have a vision and a strong will to eliminate the weak links.
