Nothing concrete, but most indications are that he will sign this summer It would be nice if he can bring LHD Jimmy Schuldt with him.

Ranked 30th by who? He's been very good in the QMJHL last year and now this year. I don't think he'll ever be a top 6 forward, but could he develop into a 3rd or 4th liner? Sure. Lets see where it goes after he hits the AHL next year.

Pull him, Even if its just to rest for California.

Ylonen 1 assist Houde 4 assists in afternoon games

It was a close game so they didn't use the 4th pair much He's been around 8-9 minutes in the other two playoffs were CSKA had a bigger lead They are shortening the bench now

This is why a backup was needed at the deadline. You can't play the same goalie in 2 back-to-backs in less than a week and expect results. If they have no confidence in Niemi, they needed to find a backup goalie who they had enough confidence in to play against New Jersey, Detroit or the New York Rangers. 3 bottom feeders and we were forced to use Price in all 3???

Columbus losing 4-0 to Edmonton is good news.

Sure I expect a number of teams to be interested. He'll get to choose where he goes and might want an Org with less RHD depth. On the other hand we have a lot of Finns so that can be attractive. His offence is very good. His defensive game needs some work with Joel Bouchard if he signs with us though. He used to be a forward and converted to D so he's still a bit lost in his own end

Tyszka and Walford had 1a each

FTFY

Hes 23 He would be subject to an ELC

Scotty Bowman in his prime couldnt have coached this sens roster.

Huge win 5-4 Vejdemo (2), Verbeek (2), and Evans with the goals. Lindgren was pulled after 3 goals on 10 shots... and with Laval down 3-1. McNiven came in and stopped 13/14 as the Rocket made the comeback.

He's looked awful in his time in Montreal. He's also looked awful in Philly. last time was 3 years ago now.... He was never the best player. If he's lost even half a step, or is just half a second slower on moving the puck quickly, he wouldn't be an NHL player. I have serious doubts that he can reach the level he was at between the ages of 25-27 now that he's 30. He's no longer in his prime, and even in his prime he wasn't a star player. Any drop off makes him an AHLer, not an NHLer. He was absolute prime age last time he was here, now he's past that prime... and even a small drop off is huge when the player was a 3rd/4th liner in his prime.

Weather is likely a factor. Its got the most mild climate of any of the Canadian cities.

One play doesnt change the fact that Weise is not an NHL player right now. He was bad in Philly and hes bad in Montreal. At least we gave up nothing to get him... as Schlemko and Froese also arent nhl players and Folin is better than Alzner (and with Juulsen's injury the extra RHD is nice to have). That said... it might be a feel.good story but id much rather see Weal or Peca than Weise. Heck Id rather see Deslauriers than Weise and im not a big fan of Deslauriers either.

Hell Blackhawks fans called for Quennevilles head this season and many now want Bowman fired. Even the team that went all in and succeeded and won 3 cups... that team's fanbase is calling for coaches and GMs to be fired.

Chara throws a check to the head. No supplemental discipline from.the NHL. SHOCKING
