Hockey Trash Talk & BS thread

Kings put Ehrhoff on waivers ?

 

Canucks' Brandon Sutter fractured his jaw last night and The Pylon fractured his leg

 

He has been that bad?

 

Only like $500K for a team to pick him up for the rest of the season

 

A sharp contrast in cost to that contract Buffalo gifted him a few years back

 

3 or 4 , something like that

 

Pre game just starting , Biega , McCann and Cracknell in

Sutter may not play the rest of the season

 

Nice goal Virtanen

 

Dead silence in Glendale as always, nice to see the passionate fan base.

 

Nashville Predators Fan here. We actually put up pretty good attendance numbers considering its a southern team.

 

Ok

Welcome to TW

Apparently the Jets offered him 6 million for 6 years(way more than his worth) and he refused. He would be a good rental guy, no doubt.

Kadri fined for throat slashing gesture. That used to be a suspension. So I guess that standard has been changed.

 

Pierre LaBrun was the tie stretcher who wrote the article IIRC. You were the just the guy who apparently didn't read it but took the time to make a meme

 

I only view the fly's posts when it suits me.

Actually I did go on general fanager and the kings only have 2.2 million of effective room, or 70 K of space by seasons end, however you want to look at it to bring on another body. That includes moving one of the bottom guys into the AHL to clear space. Ladd is worth somewhere in the mid 4's, IIRC, right now. Quite simply, in order to make that sort of move, LA would need to dump 2.2 million dollars worth of salary. So, just going off the general trends in the NHL, I would say the Jet's are not really interested unless the Kings make it worth while for them to take on an additional 2.2 million this year. The Jet's don't like eating money. So what sort of prospect is worth eating that sort of money to the Jet's. I'm guessing the type that LA won't part with. Not unless they like burning up a high prospect and a high pick on a player.

Plus do the Kings even have a player worth that sort of money to trade to the Jets without hurting themselves as much as helping themselves?

The only way the Jet's get rid of Ladd to the Kings would be in a last minute, no other partners at the dance, kind of move. I could see that because then the Jet's have to take what they can get, but it's not really worth while speculating on that 2 weeks out from the deadline.

I don't disagree within anything you say other than to point out that the Jets aren't necessarilyattempting to "get rid of Ladd". I think they are, in fact, attempting to keep him.
The article is just another 'insider' attempt to attract attention, sell his insight and advertising space for his employer.
The Kings may very well not have room for Ladd in their salary structure. I rarely look at team's cap space. I would also point out that their draft picks will be weak given their high place in the standings, something that could make them less desireable as a trade partner.

I suspect if nothing of sufficient value is offered in return, Chevedayoff will likely just keep him through the season.
