would you trade edvinsson straight up for necas? that's the equivalent of the mittlestadt trade to colorado.

given the other potential teams in pursuit and the assets they have, i'm not sure i want the wings in a bidding war. mittelstadt went for a top young defenseman who was drafted top 10. sam reinhart went for a first round pick and a top goalie prospect. would you trade #15 and cossa for necas? and then sign him for 7 years $7.5 million?

you guys are nuts. you'd rather have goff than the best player in the league in his prime and a certified hall of famer. you dont think mahomes can hit st brown in stride? or laporta on schedule? this is the kind of thing we argue about in the offseason. lol.

that's quite the homer take. mahomes is the best player in the league at the most important position in football. goff is good. i like him. but to take him over mahomes is lunacy.

Pistons hired a new coach today! an assistant coach. fred vinson. sure seems like monty isnt going anywhere.

wait until private equity ends up owning the florida state seminoles football program. that will be interesting.

RIP to the logo.

markstrom likely to get moved too. but i dont want the wings to pay for it.

do not trade meaningful assets for a goalie. goalies are volatile.

not at $4m per. equivalent of spending big money on copp based on his stint with the rangers in the playoffs.

lots of variation from the consensus. lindstrom at 2? levshunov at 10? hage at 40?

water finds its level.

as "mid" as the tigers are, take a moment and laugh at how historically bad the chicago white sox are right now. theyre down 13-1 and about to lose their 14th straight game.

cant imagine he'll het past calgary at 9. wings lack elite skill players in their system. its the one thing they lack and also the one thing that's hardest to find. not sure if iginla fits that bill, eiserman has elite scoring skill, but lacks drive and defensive responsibilty. i doubt either of them are there. michael hage was brought up on wwp today. nygard screams yzerman pick. jack of all trades, elite master of none, hard worker, responsible, plays in sweden.

eiserman might be mantha 2.0.

i dont see any big push for an nhl team in milwaukee.

football will break off. form their own group. the ratings this year are going to be bonkers. michigan texas? usc michigan? ohio state oregon? texas texas am? oklahoma alabama? theyre going to want a full slate of that. no more clemson north carolina bull****. two 20 team divisions, just like the nfl.

i dont think the wings should give up the farm for him. i would trade kasper. i wouldnt trade danielson. and if they are stocked at center, they probably want sandin pelikka and picks.

yeah, why would the ship off a young player like that just coming into his prime? they have no cap concerns. he's young enough to be on their timeline for success. sounds fishy to me.

probably, but then you have to pay him, raymond, and seider. he'd be on the same "time line" as those other two. that's your core (plus debrincat, i guess). can you win with that core? the wings are going to be a little short on space this year, but things open up nicely next year.

SLC is a fast growing market and the only other competition is the Jazz. no football and no baseball. these are the types of markets where hockey will thrive. places like raleigh. that being said, i cant see how they avoid going back to houston or atlanta. houston is massive and is soon to be the 3rd largest market in the country when i passes chicago. atlanta has changed demographically with so many transplants from the north. soccer is thriving there now. there will likely be the same appetite for hockey. just depends on whether the league wants to take a risk to get burned 3 times.

salary cap go whrrrrrrrrrrr

the way the courts are moving, a guy will be able to play one half for one team, then get a better offer and go over and play for the other team in the second half. they need binding contracts. theyve allowed it to become professional sports so it needs professional rules. and a body/commissioner who will actually look out for the interests of the game.

utah already has 34k people making deposits for season tickets. meanwhile winnipeg struggles to get 10k.

then take him at 5.
