Think the Stevie love is strong enough for him? Copp ios doing alright as the 2C..but Stamkos would be an upgrade and his right handedness would give us a hedge against Danielson not advancing as a prospect main drawback is his contract..runs through 27/28 with an $8 million per cap hit Is that contract even a drawback though? I think it's perfect length for a 35 year old. He's still an offensive upgrade over Kane, with whom we could cut bait after this season, and 15 months older. Sure, $8mm is much higher than Kane's $3mm, but shouldn't handcuff the Wings. Offer the Preds this year's #1 plus a middling prospect if the Preds retain 25%? 1 Quote
buddha Posted February 4 Posted February 4 i'm not worried about the contract, i'm worried about the age. he's got a lot of goals this year, but jis shooting percentage is higher than its ever been in his career. yzerman has always liked him, so he may deal for him. i'd rather spend a first on defense this year. i wouldnt be too upset by stamkos, but by golly i wouldnt be overjoyed! better than elias petersson...

slothfacekilla Posted February 4 Posted February 4 Stamkos kinda scares me, feels like more of a power play guy at this point in his career so I'm not sure he moves the needle a ton with how this roster is constructed. But I also I haven't watched the Predators play in a while maybe I'm wrong. I know that Trotz is "stepping down" so I'm not sure if that means the Predators will do a fire sale or hold onto guys for a new GM Quote
Sports_Freak Posted February 5 Posted February 5 How lomg is Edvinsson out for? The dreaded "lower body injury?" Quote
lordstanley Posted February 7 Author Posted February 7 (edited) Some of these were neat to hear, but was it my imagination or were some of the -sson names pronounced shon and the couple near the end pronounced son. Actually, on Instagram she just answered someone’s question about that: an r before the s makes it sh Edited February 7 by lordstanley Quote
Shinzaki Posted February 7 Posted February 7 Rumor has it the Wings are interested in Vinnie Trocheck from NY...that would be preferable to a Stamkos or Petersson Quote

I much rather that over rentals even though the prices will be higher of course Quote

slothfacekilla Posted February 9 Posted February 9 I'm excited for the games! USA might have the most punchable first line in the history of the sport! Quote
Hongbit Posted February 9 Posted February 9 I’m not sure how it’s going to work with Tom Wilson playing in a format where fighting is absolutely forbidden. Quote
slothfacekilla Posted February 9 Posted February 9 The IIHF refs might faint when they see Wilson absolutely knock a French dudes head off from behind Quote
lordstanley Posted February 9 Author Posted February 9 (edited) Seider is Germany's alternate captain. I don't know if that means he wears an A on his jersey or something weird like Ä or ß. Edited February 9 by lordstanley 1 1 Quote

Shame Klima had...issues,,,that forced him out of town you almost wonder if the game isn't played so fast on average now that you see less bursts of all out speed because players don't have enough left in the tank by half-way through a shift, or they worry more they'll end up out of gas when the play reverses before they can get off.

lordstanley Posted February 10 Author Posted February 10 (edited) Most of you won’t be familiar with this legendary Canucks broadcaster who died today. He did do late night games on Hockey Night in Canada and called Bobby Nystrom’s overtime goal on CBS for their first Stanley Cup. But the final minute of this game is one of hockey’s great calls. It was our 2nd year in Vancouver and I got wrapped up in that run even though I’m not a Canucks fan. Edited February 10 by lordstanley Quote
lordstanley Posted February 11 Author Posted February 11 (edited) Dalibor Dvorsky has scored the go-ahead goal and now Slovakia has a 3-1 lead over Finland. Davorsky was picked 10th overall in the 2023 draft, just behind Danielson. He is 9G 6A 15Pts in 47 games for St. Louis this season. Slafkosky of the Habs, who was picked #1 overall in 2022, had the 3rd goal. He has 45 points in 57 games this season for Montreal. Scored 50 and 51 points the two seasons before this.
