    you only need 2 for a bidding war. I'm not seeing some monster return, but I could easily see CBJ getting a few A tier propsects for PLD

    If his agent were smart he’d tell him to keep his mouth shut and just play. He may want out but the BJ’s hold all the power here. They will likely trade him at the draft. Would Rangers make a move for him?

    I think they absolutely would, but apparently the Jackets want Kakko in the deal. That may be a non-starter.

    NYR have done a great job of accumulating young talent over the last few years. To me that is an acceptable piece to give up.

    Yeah, you give up Kakko for PLD unless the other pieces are too much imo.

    Dubois needs a fucking reality check, be a pro. That organization showed faith in him when nobody else did. They’re a solid team & now his teammates are in an awful spot, just an all time selfish move.

    I would say he’s being a pro with how he’s handling the situation. I would argue that the biggest travesty in the sport right now is Florida’s handling of Yandle. PLD hasn’t done anything nearly on their level.

    I’d agree, especially considering Kakko hasn’t looked like a #2 overall pick at any point so far. But our management is apparently dedicated to him, despite our coach sending him down to the 3rd line and taking him off the PP.

    In short, I’m not sure NYR even knows what to do with Kakko at this point.

    what? Nobody showed faith in him? Wtf are you talking about teelsy

    if you want to blast a player for being selfish look at puujarlvi or laine. Dubois is not the first to not want to play for a shitty organisation with a fucking nutjob of a coach

    and Lol at all time selfish move. This doesn’t even crack the top 50 for nhl players

    That’s the point of benching him. Force him to waive his NMC. I agree that the panthers don’t have 6 defensemen better than him but this is a play to get him to waive his NMC

    The Chicago Blackhawks are a banged up and not so talented team. The Lighting are a very talented and deep team. The Lighting have pounded the Hawks over the last 4.5 periods by the score of 8-1. The Hawks 1 goal was basically a fluke.

    Its gonna be a long season.

    i will never understand why they take the bait. What voracek did there is the equivalent of someone here getting into an argument with dblplay1212 .

    trying to fight the media covering your team is never a good move

    Whatever that guy wrote about Voracek is probably accurate. No coincidence that team finally looks ready to take the next step when winning players like Konecny start taking his ice time.

    His ability to turn a team who won back to back cups and retained their 2 star players into whatever this team is right now is truly impressive. So many deals that we all criticized at the time and made no sense at all.

    The interviewer in question is a guy named Mike Sielski. For whatever reason the guy has it out for Voracek.

    This is being pointed to as a pretty big hit piece that he wrote on Voracek in October 2019.

    They’ve been in “win now” mode for like a decade and repeatedly leveraged the future to do so. It was eventually catch up to them but some of Rutherford’s FA moves have certainly sped up that process and will hinder the next regime’s rebuild.

    I don’t mind that attitude with Crosby and Malkin getting older. It’s the dumb FA moves that are problematic
