Sportsnet described him as a 4th line LW, honey badger, PKer. Might actually be a solid pickup
- Whipper


I liked the description but the proof is in the pudding (as long as Bill Cosby didn’t open said pudding).

Wonder what went the other way?

He has 10 goals and 4 assists in 57 games this year so I am guessing he is going to get a shot to play.

So gamble non stop as a new GM? Essentially begging for Shanny’s approvals?
- Dozzer

I mean Vegas is doing it. Seems to be working out.

I’m not saying trade the future but trade a roster piece is you have to. It doesn’t have to be picks and prospects. Leafs just don’t go for the home run ever. Play it safe to often.

Fast

Excellent PK and defensive forward

Much better than Gregor

Minny fans are sad to see him go

Everybody's sewn up with NMCs and nobody in their right mind has Vegas on their NMC: low taxes, fun in the sun, head back to Ontario when it gets too hot, just in time for late spring/summer. FML.

This cap circumvention loophole poop has to be closed up though; can't have teams pulling a Kucherov every year like VGK is doing now with Stone, etc. so they can land Mantha, Hertl, and Hanafin.

They'll be overwhelming favourites, like Boston last year.
- Zezel


Similar ....except for Vegas being the champs and Boston being (frank)tards.

I'd post a pic of Tie Domi skating across the ice showing off his "belt" if I could.

4th round pick.
Natural fit is 3rd line center.

Maybe start on the 4th line?

Who do you trade? Rebuilding teams that aren’t playoff bound aren’t interested in current players.

Treeliving paid a 4th for Connor Dewar??????
- Archaic


He’s a third round pick that has proven he’s NHL capable and is only 24. Why would it be a problem giving up a pick with only a 10.9% chance of being a guy that plays 100 games in the NHL for that?
