@sportsrage 1 - Toronto: Ivar Stenberg 2 - San Jose: Chase Reid 3 - Vancouver: Gavin McKenna

i was thinking canucks get him 3rd but i doubt sharks pass on him with 2nd pick . or leafs take him 1st etc..

@Nucks1968 @ThomasDrance @TheAthleticNHL The Canucks have Malhotra ranked ahead of Stenberg

@ThomasDrance @TheAthleticNHL 🇨🇦🏒Canucks will not pass on Stenberg if he is there in the 3 hole.. It is that simple.. Let's move on now.

The thing about Ivar Stenberg is that he’s a legitimate top-flight prospect. Passing on him for McKenna is one thing, passing on him for anybody else is… very probably a bad bet. The case for Stenberg via @TheAthleticNHL: nytimes.com/athletic/73060…

I believe so. I know they do Montreal Canadiens viewing parties. It would be worth reaching out to them directly (their website has an email: info@ziggyspub.ca) I’ve been there a couple times and enjoyed the atmosphere. It isn’t a huge spot, but it has a lot of cool memorabilia on the walls (including some wrestling) and would make for an awesome spot for an event.

@ChrisKFilms Do they do events there? Seems like a good spot.

Anyone know of any solid pubs/bars/small venues near the arena in Montreal?

This would have been a suspension if a Canadian team did this

@KevinMcCurdy Yup. Should have been a penalty. But maybe this doesn’t happen if the refs call Carolina for tripping a few minutes earlier

Holy shit this isn't even close. If you're going to tell people to learn the rules, at least know them yourself.

Absolute joke officiating.

@zach_20007 @mathewjdp What’s funny is Montembeault’s xGSA isn’t bad at all. If they get him, UPL, Bobrovsky, or Gustavsson and a young goalie like Levi or Cossa I’d be happy.

@ChrisKFilms @mathewjdp What kind of goalies are available right now that the oilers could get. They will get a young goalie. And try and get a more experienced guy like Monty or upl.

Stan Bowman has been a ____ GM for Edmonton.

@zach_20007 @mathewjdp I’m not having this debate. If you both think Stuart Skinner is a good goalie then we aren’t on the same level of understanding the game. I want the Oilers to win a Cup with McDavid, but it’s this kind of thinking from their management that’s going to prevent that.

@ChrisKFilms @mathewjdp Goalies have good year and bad year . Ex swayaman has horrible last year. Based on this season oilers skinner has a better gsax/60 then gustavsson hellebuyck. Are those bad goalies.

@VancouverSun @SteveEwen I’d be looking at Dagenais, Preston, Villeneuve, or even Liam Ruck.

Canucks: Who could be in the mix with the No. 24 overall draft pick? vancouversun.com/sports/hockey/…

@mathewjdp @zach_20007 Between 23-26 Skinner ranks 38th in the NHL in xGSA/60 amongst goalies with a min 300 minutes played. So no, he’s not a good goalie.

Skinner saved 9 goals above expected in one of the worst goalie environments this season. He was anything but bad. Inconsistent? Sure, but he still had a 52% QS rating which is league avg. I would like Edm to get a better starter and I think Skinner is a good goalie. Two things can be true at once.

@mathewjdp @zach_20007 I give up lol. If you truly believe that, and if there aren’t any real goaltending upgrades coming, then you deserve what’s coming to this team.

@ChrisKFilms @zach_20007 Yes. Skinner is a good goalie. Ingram is a good backup.

@zach_20007 @mathewjdp Skinner is dog shit. Ingram cleared waivers this year for a reason. Guys, cmon. Get a fucking goalie or McDavid is gone

@ChrisKFilms @mathewjdp That actually would’ve been a good pair. Since skinner is better than Jarry. And we wouldn’t have overplayed Ingram this year.

@zach_20007 @mathewjdp And you think going with Ingram and Skinner is good too? Cmon man.

@ChrisKFilms @mathewjdp Jarry was not on bowman. He didn’t want to make the move wanted Ingram and skinner. Jackos overruled him and come in and made the trade since Katz and Jackson forced it to happen.

@zach_20007 @mathewjdp So you think Jarry is a good move?

is not mediocrity. He has made good moves, given the state the team was in when he arrived. With two negative players in Ceci and Kane, he got positive value for them. and got a top-6 player for a 4th, and a top-4 defender on a good contract. and only has two bad moves, Frederick and mangy.

@zach_20007 @mathewjdp If you guys are happy with mediocrity have at it. I would expect more than a 3C and a 4th liner for a 1st round pick (and cap dump on a contract that was signed 6 months prior).

@mathewjdp @ChrisKFilms And it’s was a second for them and a second to dump the contract. Which you have to consider in the deal.

@mathewjdp @zach_20007 I’m failing to see what’s good. Podkolzin was a steal, I’ll give you that. Dickinson/Dach when it costs you a 1 is dog shit.

@ChrisKFilms @zach_20007 lol • Ceci • Kane • Podkolzin • Walman • Stastney • Murphy • Dickinson/Dach • Emberson • Ingram

You got the best player in the league, and a top 5 player in the league, and you fuck it up. They desperately need a goalie, so what does he do after ignoring it since day 1? He trades an expiring contract for a goalie who cleared waivers last year and has 2 more years left on his contract. He trades a 1st round pick (in 27) for a pending UFA 3C and to dump the bad contract he signed a few months prior. Trading a 1st round pick for Walman and then locking him up long term at $7M AAV doesn’t look great either. The Trent Frederic contract is horrendous. Tell me, what good has he done?

@ChrisKFilms @mathewjdp Why has he been piss poor.
