@DaverNipz Isn't Brandon Carlo also 85 ?

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@willymackszn @DanteShuriken @cmasisak22 Kind of crazy that he may be asked to take a team friendly deal. Just so they can pay trouba and nurse?

@mndamico Please! Love bourque

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@BDangles19 @charlieo_conn Yea, ultimately he may only be a good 3/4c. Which not too many would be furious about at 13ovr. However, the buim, helenius comparisons are never going away. They traded down hoping jett would be a bit of a steal.. This will be a very interesting year for him hopefully.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@BDangles19 @charlieo_conn My thoughts too, everyone looking at this negativity of course. However, he got voted one of the best skaters in the OHL even still, looked fast for Canada and was maybe battling an injury all year.

@filthyfili @ADiMarco25 Yea imo it has to be for cozens. Great faceoff guy, 17+mins a night for Ottawa, couple 30 goal seasons. But why would Ottawa move a young center like cozens.

@JasonGregor Gavin McKenna is taking his spot

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@TreyPaulhus Why would flyers do this, seeler was a solid 3rd pair defensemen all playoffs. Tippett was an absolute force vs penguins even with a hernia and internal bleeding... And they are trading them for 9.25million 31year old Nurse?

@ameier6775 @NHLRumourReport The leafs were in a playoff race. Had three important games vs Florida, tampa and Ottawa I think. Was the decider on being a seller. Matthews arrived back like the day before. Not anti Olympics, Olympics were over, other teams players were already back with their teams.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@ameier6775 @NHLRumourReport One thing I saw was players touring/visiting with the president, teams not knowing when players would return, and teams like Toronto/Ottawa being in a playoff race with exteamly important games right away. The leafs and Matthews sucked on return resulting in seller at Deadline.

Rod yelling at his team after the empty netter. Looks like he was shouting to everyone, "there's a min left!". Crazy how determined he was to win again in Carolina.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@GinoHard_ Looks like a 2 mins penalty to Dobes for interference on that one.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@TageInASlug @JeffMarek he only tried to avoid contact when he was basically already making contact.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@HabsoluteDog @spittinchiclets yes, but NHL refs have no clue what to call in the playoffs ever. We saw majors called in the flyers series for players rolling around after a slash with no call on the ice. In this situation how is it not a 5 to review.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@chrismctavish @JLazzy23 @emanningwrites Flyers had a lot of injuries going into a fully rested Carolina. It didn't seem like a massive void between these teams either. Flyers had lots of chances.. other teams will make them pay. Ottawa and flyers struggled to finish chances.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@Shae_Nuge93 Seriously, if it's something he's thinking about then it's already decided in my opinion. Just start over, you have been gifted a rare opportunity to ship top players and develop a new all star in McKenna.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@jason_drolet @Pmfunder1 @BeeTEE15 It should be, It would hilarious if all goalies started crashing into every player that enters the crease. It's fine, I'm freely moving around my crease. Bam! bodycheck to unsuspecting player, followed up with a dive at the next guys ankles. WWE meets NHL in the crease.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@jason_drolet @Pmfunder1 @BeeTEE15 he's not trying to make the save, he's trying to make contact with the player. Same deal, same goalie, same silliness.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@jason_drolet @Pmfunder1 @BeeTEE15 refereeing to my first comment where there have been other examples of anderson body checking players. One was penalty, but Martone was about to barry the puck in an empty net, gets tackled/tripped by this goalie.

[7ThDef @7thDefender]

@TheFranklinMan @CanesStats Philly fan here, its been dog shit both ways. The hockey has been interrupted every 3 mins by the refs. Reviewing flops for majors, bench minors for coaches, no consistency... soft garbage calls everywhere.
