Rutherford says Quinn Hughes wants to play with his bros LOL. Crazy press conference

That would surely make for one strong blueline 👍

Well, I cant say that Im surprised. Hughes/Hamilton as a top pairing is crazy. If it were to happen, whatever Canucks get back will not be equal value.

Typical Jim Rutherford press conference. Fires at the hip, says what he wants to say.

If the Canucks were smart, they'd trade Quinn to the Devils this summer and do a quick retool/rebuild.

And based on Dubas's comments today, I dont see a scenario where Sullivan leaves Pittsburgh this summer.

Idk man, feels like Gallant and Lavy 3.0.

Crazy he’s the same age as Gallant and a year older than Lavy. Would’ve guessed he was a few years younger.

Nemec, Casey, Mercer, picks. Problem is Nemec and Casey are RD. I would do anything i could to keep him

many picks i guess. Seems crazy but I don't think NJD trades Hischier

Every coach has flaws or else they would be coaching somewhere

I really like Vancouver of last season. It was a real good team that kind of had goaltending issues. They had a few games where I thought they were winning the west. EP 40, like the Trouba situation, derailed their season imo. I think miller and Tocchet work well together, he had 100 pts season. It’s a recency bias I guess, but it worked fairly well out there and we know Miller is the man for the Rangers now

Still say the craziest thing the last 10 years is Jeff Skinner playing his first ever playoff game. 1078 career games, first playoff game tonight. That’s wild

You can have him!

Puckpedia GM has gone wild with Devils trades

That's insane!

Doesn't matter who the coach is unless there are major changes and hopefully a (frank)ing captain. Preferably Miller

Caufield just saw his life flash before his eyes 😂

Laf and Miller for Xhekaj and Slafkovsky, who’s doing that?

had a feeling ovi would score after that stat they showed

Nobody.

WiFi has been scratched a lot. Miller doesn’t play the game we all want but is better than him. Still have hope for Laf

Yeah, that one's not even close.
Does it matter at this point, though? I swear, it's getting harder and harder to deny the "we can't develop prospects" gripe these days. 2 more playoff goals for the galactically useless Brett Howden to start that series.

It's not so much the lack of development, its more about how NYR misidentifies where a prospect will fall when it comes to NHL depth/lineup. Over value way too many.

I think Laf just had a bad year like everyone else and will bounce back next year.

I would say they draft worse than scout. The e kakko and Laf blunders are more development issues

I think Laf gets 62 next year. Not ideal but a big step. If he puts up under 60 they will look to trade him

Laf gets a pass for this past season IMO. Whatever was going on in the locker room, we can't expect Laf to not be affected.
