    The Edmonton frigging Oilers, where first round draft picks go to die? Now Bettman just be trolling.

    LOOOOOOOOOOOL. Sorry McDavid, you're going to the superstar graveyard. He looked absolutely devastated too.

    Seriously unreal. Guess this means they trade RNH or Draisaitl.

    They have to do something, their cap situation is going to be an absolute nightmare very soon. They don't need anymore forwards, they need defence and a goalie. After they won the lottery, MacTavish is quoted saying, "Offence wins hockey games, and we have plenty of it now." HA. Really? I thought it was defence you god damn idiot.

    That was terrible. He looked like he was about to serve a life sentence in hell.

    Meanwhile CBC is all like, "Crosby hasn't scored in 85 million playoff games, when will he ever show up."

    Boom.

    I was about to trash our PP, but then Brassard just potted one. Crosby's eaten our lunch tonight.

    Sharks and Todd McLellan have "mutually" agreed to part ways. I forsee an even worse season next year in San Jose than this one..

    Watch the Leafs go after him. They have a thing for former west coast coaches.

    He'd be better for them than Ron Wilson was.

    Pretty much anyone would be better than Wilson. He lost the room as soon as he opened his mouth. The leafs have to hire a henchmen for Shanahan first and then hire the coach. Let's go in the right direction this time around. As for McDavid, well that was difficult. Because after three balls were drawn the Leafs had the best chance and then Edmonton won it. McDavid is classy, we know he wanted Toronto or Buffalo because it was close to home, but he's pro. He'll be fine. I'd like to see the Leafs get Strome but I fear Arizona might take him. That would leave us with Mitch Marner or Noah Hanafin which aren't bad options either.

    Rangers games stress me out so much. Why can't we just take care of business early?

    Selfish play by Byfuglien after that Perry goal. He's got to be smarter.

    He is a massive liability with a bloated contract. I am intrigued to see if Frank disagrees.

    There are alot of bloated contracts. I don't know how much Buff is making. I didn't see the play. I do think he is a very valuable player. I do have a soft spot and bias for him.
