At this point I’m thinking a second with a condition, probably based around that teams playoff performance. Like get to the Conference Finals and it becomes a 1. I would also think a separate pick (maybe a future 3?).
The other option is trying to snag Fabbro from Nashville. There are rumblings he may not sign with Nashville this summer, which would put him on the Vesey route. There is a clearer path to PT in Detroit than Nashville. I would try to make that gamble.
Lol. I know you’re fucking around, but you know that flu shots normally don’t work right? Like it’s just a guess.
Howard probably got a flu shot and if he hadn't he'd be out a week instead of a weekend. I assume every winter sports team gives out flu shots as part of their conditioning program.
Drastically? I don’t know the stats. But isn’t it just a guess to know if they got the virus correct or not?
Zadina is going to struggle to hit double digit minutes today. I am not shocked. It’s frustrating as hell though.
3 points for Veleno today. Now leads QMJHL in points, despite playing at least 4 less games than anyone else in the top 30 in scoring.
On par, same level but different geographical region. I think it's usually a little bit higher scoring than the OHL.
The guy he is tied with in scoring is the future #1 overall pick in 2020. Our 2nd rounder from last year (Jared McIssac) is #1 in the Q for PPG by a defenseman as well.
Just as some context below is Mantha’s stat line in his draft + 1 year (same as Veleno right now) GP: 57 Goals: 57 Assists: 63
If Nyquist is asking for 5 years and 5.5 per, I'm not sure many contenders were going to get him and extend him. So he is a true rental to most teams. But for them, they are going for it this year. They need a goalie too, too bad we couldn't have thrown in Jimmy and gotten a 1st plus more from them for the 2.
I’m pretty sure that we will be quiet today. That’s fine. Ken did more than I expected. We got significantly worse short term to hopefully be better long term. That’s a win.
Trade Center says it sounds like we are done Makes sense. We have no replacement for Howard and will probably resign him. Kronwall probably wants to retire a wing. Vanek apparently wont waive his NTC.
