Hockey Trash Talk & BS thread

I heard from an employee at a Tim Hortons that McDavid is being shopped to Toronto for some blueberry donut holes!

 

Some of the rumors out there are just crazy. Subban for Fowler is one that came up this morning. I still can't see the Habs dealing him for anything less than something insane.

 

Subban will remain a Hab

Stamkos will remain a Bolt

You heard it here first

 

With that thought.....I hope PC remains sane. I like Subban and all, but if the Oilers dish out too much.....I'm gonna throat punch a kitten!!!

Let's hope Oz is correct.
(ewww......did I just say that out loud??)

 

Agreed

50/50 odds that will tilt towards he's not a bolt if he goes unsigned into the weekend. That's when he is allowed to talk to other teams and if it gets there both himself and Yzerman will likely move on.

More like repetitively, but thanks for playing.

 

I hope Oilers management aren't stupid enough to deal away something great for just an okay Dman. BTW I'm not talking Subban there. I think Subban is staying home. I could see the Oilers though going for someone like Fowler or another underachieving mid 20's Dman and spending the world to get him.

 

Subban will remain a Hab

Stamkos will remain s Bolt

You heard it here first

 

This is my greatest fear. I know they're actively searching for some quality D. And with some trade bait like Eberle and RNH (and to a lesser extent, Yak)......I hope they can pick up something decent.
But a shake up is drastically needed. The current Oilers roster isn't going to get anything done next season.

 

If you believe the media the Oilers are offering all three of those things together for a top Dman. One of the core pieces (example Eberle), Yak, and their first round pick. That's a lot of assets for one player no matter who they are.

 

Want to make a friendly bet? Maybe someone changes their pic for a week to the Leafs (you) or Canucks (me) if they lose.

 

I will certainly be sad to see an Ebs, or a RNH go. But I understand that it's needed - to make the Oilers a team that can actually do something.

I'm hoping against all hope that Yak goes down the road. He needs to go away......now!!!! But who the hell would want him??

 

He's young. This will sound bad but I wouldn't mind seeing him with another Russian or maybe even someone from the same Religious background to see if that could translate into him adjusting his game better for his skill set. It seems to me like his adjustment to North America has been poor and that could be why coaching isn't working for him. He has the skills but he needs to play within them rather than try to do everything when he is on the ice.

 

Fuck no. You source better be your dog.

Just looked it up.

Fuck. Buffalo is in on it?

 

Here's the only version I can find of it now but earlier TSN was saying it on there TV feed.

EDIT: Found it on TSN now. They changed the wording lol. Read a few paragraphs down and they mention it in a tweet and conversation.

Anaheim signed Vatanen through his prime so I can let Fowler go.
With Shea Theadore in the works...it'll work out.

 

Have you seen what they have done in the last 2 decades? It wouldnt surprise me one bit

 

Vatanen under 5 mil is just ridiculous IMO

 

Yup.

 

Makes Pylon seem cheap.
