Am I wrong that we should have gotten a third for Podz since we would be helping them out of the bind? We should have at least gotten equal treatment for Holloway

never wrong for a higher pick.

4th better than possibly losing for free.

at this point, he's had chances to crack this line up and never delivered. Sad thing is, he's gonna hve to go through waivers where he's lost for nothing

i'll take the 4th.

well, they cleared out room to match, but ultimately decided not to. Blues sent them another 3rd round pick for it. ultimately, it was too much $ to hand out for the 2 players, especially when Drai and Bouchard are up for new contracts.

I wish they matched.

Yah Broberg has quite a bit of potential... but Halloway has been a bit of a disappointment at the NHL level

-looks like the Canucks need a goalie. Demko is still not 100 percent.

What is the deal with local boy, Ryan Johansen? Has he dropped off that much, at one time, he was quite a sought after player.

Philly basically accusing him and the AVs for underplaying the extent of his injury.

But in reality we all know it's because he doesn't want to play for Torts.

... isn't being on the cover of EA NHL the kiss of death?

I think that this curse thing for players being on EA NHL covers is hit and miss.

Ovechkin was on the cover of EA NHL twice for NHL 07 and NHL 21.

Ovie has had a Hall of Fame career and a Stanley Cup. One of the best snipers ever to play in the NHL.

I would think it is fair to say that some NHL players are superstitious?

Nice signing, 2 seasons ago had 20 points in 31 games... guy can score.

He's also childhood friends with Daniel Sprong apparently... super high level replacement player for any forward injury.

Also had 0 goals over 54 games with the Rangers. Perfect signing for depth, but I wouldn't want to rely on him for anything more than 4th line minutes when someone goes down.

He had a lot of bad injury problems that hampered him... wrist surgery... ACL... those stints were not representative of his toolbox/tools

TD Bank got lucky by having their logo on the Canucks skate jersey, and now on the cover of NHL25

So unless you get the Deluxe Edition, ours will only have Quinn

God that jersey looks great; black, gold red. Classic but not outdated. Just use it full time. So tired of the corporate logo whale
