    Oilers leaking again tonight, looks like they could use GusBus to STOP and SCORE goals for them… Billy’s phone gotta be ringing off the hook tonight…. )

    If you think edm has it bad in net…. I wonder what the avs would be willing to give up for gus. Georgiev can’t stop a beach ball right now

    The sh!t might be hitting the fan in Boston.. apparently Swayman is considering putting in a trade request. For a team that is lacking at center to really be a threat, paying a goalie 10mil a year is going to make it tough to bolster the team. As good as he is, paying a goalie who has played more than half a season once $10mil is demanding.

    I think Neely’s comments have really muddied the water between Swayman and the organization regardless if he signs or not.

    My gosh this is uncharted waters for basically the whole franchise for 20 years and they are absolutley dummying the defending champs with arguably the best player on the planet.

    Is it weird that I’m kind of pulling for the Leafs now? Boston has come back on them a few teams down 3-1 so would make for one hell of a story. Maybe Toronto win the next 2 and then blow a lead in game 7 would be the perfect ending

    haha I am in the same boat as you Joe. I don’t like the bruins, but I love seeing the leafs falter in the playoffs every year. The same thing happened in 2013. Bruins led 3-1 in series, blew the lead, went back home for game 7 where the infamous 3rd period leafs meltdown happened. I honestly have no idea how Toronto has blown so many chances in the playoffs. up 3-1 against MTL, took Boston to 7 games three times and lost all, up 3-2 against tampa… being a suffering MN sports fan, I enjoy watching other fanbases suffer on a level like us as well

    looking back at past seasons I the 15-16 stuck out to me. This year’s team had 88 points. 15-16 team had 87 points. the 15-16 team made the playoffs. weird how he west pans out sometimes

    Apparently in 2021 Meruelo declined an offer from Gila River Arena for a 20 year lease. He declined and they kicked them out. I understand the glendale isn’t the best place for the team in phx (downtown or scottsdale would be much better), but dear god I didn’t think there could be anymore ridiculousness in the yotes. Cant make this stuff up.

    I do not see how a hockey team will be successful in Utah. My opinion.

    I also think it would be a bad move to have Winnipeg go back to Atlanta.

    Did a little research on the relocation and it seems that smith (owner of jazz-new owner of yotes) will build a whole new building with his own wallet.

    I was skeptical about Utah at first, but it seems that they have what all successful non- traditional market teams have and what the coyotes and thrashers didn’t have: ownership that actually cares about the team. Utah is a lot more hockey-like than a lot of the other markets there are even now. If any market has good ownership, it will succeed.

    Will they be able to fit 17,000+ fans in the Utah Jazz arena? Or will they build a brand new arena for the team?

    You can’t honestly say you’d rather see your team tank and finish at or near the bottom of the league for years on end, would you? I’m not really sure where that strategy ever came from because even though it “can” work (Penguins, Blackhawks), most of the time it fails. Then you end up with a crappy team for a decade followed by an over rated team with over paid players.

    Put me in the camp of being competitive on a consistent basis over being terrible for a decade with the remote chance of improving.

    I completely disagree with this. Since the turn of the century lockout more teams that have tanked have succeeded than not. Tampa, chicago, Pitt, Colorado, Washington, LA, all gained their stars from being at the basement of the league for a handful of seasons that won them their cups. Being a decent team every year hasn’t got anyone anywhere in recent history.

    Anyone else pick up on ben Meyers being sent to Anaheim? Obviously some people were losing their minds when they didn’t sign him thinking he was a future 1-2C. I do think it could be different in Anaheim if he is given more playing time on a non-playoff team. but he also has played 9 NHL games this year and isn’t exactly super-young anymore at 25

    Most likely scenario might be coming back with the exact same goalie situation next year. Fans will riot. Lots of people wayyyy to certain on plugging Wallstedt in. He’s still 21 at the beginning of next season. Who’s the last really good 21 year old goalie? Who’s the last good 23 or 24 year old goalie? Maybe otterberger last year… don’t go look at his current season. How about Spencer Knight in Florida or Carter Hart?

    i agree. You can have one young goalie in a tandem, but 2 young goalies is dangerous.

    just like tswboda said, predicting goalie production is smoke in mirrors. for example, look at the career of Carey Price. When he was a prospect, habs fans were calling him “jesus price”. He was so good for some seasons, but for a few playoff runs Halak took his spot. Price is a hero in montreal now. I mean seriously, how well can we predict the career of a guy who is willing to step in front vulcanized rubber going 90+ mph. I do like what we have with Gustavsson and Wallstedt, but I think people really need to understand that goalies are going to have bad games, months or even seasons. Goalie voodoo is puzzling.

    My experience with both piscifun and kastking are generally positive. They work really well for about the first 12 months for a $40-$70 reel. But they wont last as long as a more expensive, bigger name brand reel.

    i see your point but they didnt bring in jeannot to score goals. they have plenty of guys who can do that. tampa was trying to recreate their bottom 6 which just wore teams down in 20′ 21′ an 22′. teams are now willing to pay more for a guy who is just no fun to play against because of how playoff hockey works. And this isnt like greenway because the wild wanted to rid him and a playoff hopeful buffalo was willing to give up a little to give him a shot in their young core. It wont be a jeannot-like return, but its worth seeing whats out there, and like joeMX said, it might be more than you think. just my 2 cents

    Frank Seravelli mentioned today that Vancouver and a few other teams have called GMBG on Duhaime…

    Lets see what GMBG can get for him… I think he’ll get alot more than most believe….

    I agree with this. they could get a haul for him. we all saw what tampa gave up for jeannot last year

    There’s a newer generation of pro anglers that have mastered FFS/live sonar as their primary tactic. One particular angler, Kyoyo Fujita, on the Bassmaster Elites, is a real “scoper.” In events where it shines, he mops up. In events where it doesn’t help as much, he does poorly. The outcome of his placing is solely dependent on how effective live sonar is in any single event.

    I believe the record has been broken for smallmouth already but the fish was never entered and released. ML has been kicking out some absolute tanks. Look at Seth Feiders bassmasters bags he was turning in. I think every fish was over 5 pounds.

    I am truly shocked by how some of the bass records still stand. I have heard multiple stories of 9-10 lb largemouth, obviously a little bit longer ago rather than recently. but I find it hardly out of the question someone could pull an 8+ lb smallie this summer out of mille lacs or vermillion.

    And now holding. Possibly two of the worst calls of seen this season both on boldy. Goose gets tripped no call and boldy gets called for playing defense

    Boldy is just broken mentally… couldn’t hit water if he fell out of a boat right now…

    Could have said it better. Just can’t catch a break. That was a great play he made to force a breakaway and of course he gets callled for hooking. Hockey gods are out for him no too apparently
