At 22 years old, i wouldn't say he's any further off than someone out of the NCAA

https://www.tsn.ca/montreal-canadiens-sign-defenceman-otto-leskinen-to-entry-level-deal-1.1301904 He's a lefty, and looks to be offensive. Not sure if this is 100% guaranteed Laval assignment or if Otto has some legit chance of making the top 4. His numbers are good.

@dlbalr - FYI, Nate is still listed as a UFA on the Free Agent Lists and not includes in the Recent Transaction section on the main homepage.

That's ridiculous. What an implosion.

CBJ is really throwing around picks this week. 2x 1sts, 2x 2nds, a 4th and a 7th.

Dutch Gretzky should offset SOME of the offense lost from Froese going the other way.

I think many are stating that they'll keep his 1000th game in Montreal for a proper celebration. BUT it could also be a hockey decision, too.

Dorion learned from his previous mistakes. LOL.

Well, except goal tending. I'd tag their D as overrated and under-experienced. But you can't argue about their Forwards and Coaching team.

Jesus, Brian. You're churning out the signing write-ups faster than TSN can put names in their tracker. Still not seeing a single Habs signing. EDIT:Well, until 30 seconds ago.

LOL @ Minnesota Wild. Pateryn for 2.25m AAV? Yikes.

Completely wrong? I doubt that, as much as i doubt your capacity to speak authoritatively on the subject because you "now" rub elbows with victims of domestic abuse. I should have used the term many instead of any. Self-esteem and self-respect issues are as commonplace, if not more prevalent, than symptoms of Stockholm syndrome, as well as a litany of others psychological issues. So there is a strong degree of truth even if i framed it incorrectly.

The complete cynic in me thinks that's despite being regularly assaulted by her partner and father of her recent child, this woman is probably willing to tolerate quite a bit to live the lifestyle that being with a millionaire sports star provides her with. Any woman with an iota of self-respect would have been gone long ago. Hockey player wives are 4 times out of 5 just eye-candy and arm trophies. Neither of them would be there, in most cases, if there wasn't the $$$.

Time to get your Redenbachers into the microwave peeps!

Like ESPN, i'm sure they will require some kind of subscription service - if they even offering it at all to Canadian locations. Alas, nothing is free in this world! I guess i'll be tuning into Habsworld for the transcripts
