The Nashville Predators have traded goaltender Yaroslav Askarov, centre Nolan Burke and a third-round pick in 2025 to the San Jose Sharks in exchange for a 2025 first-round selection, centre David Edstrom and goaltender Magnus Chrona.

Hearing same re Leafs/Pacioretty. This would be a SPC, not a PTO, if they agree to terms.

Reports are that Jonny Gaudreau and his brother Matthew were killed by a drunk driver tonite. Please pray that this is not true! #CBJ #NHL

Sorry, I gotta stop right here, just too much to handle!!

The only time I watched the Bruins lose to the Flames in Calgary was a 5-4 OTL - Gaudreau scored a hat trick with the OT winner (assisted by Dougie Hamilton). That was back on December 4th, 2015. It was a wild game! I'll never forget the place exploding when Johnny Hockey got the winner.

Seth Jarvis 8 years 63.3 mil Jarvis, 22 years old and essentially get 8 x 8. There’s definitely an argument for the goalie union and getting their salaries caught up to the other positions in the league. Sway is going to be 26 in November and he wants his big contract now which is not unreasonable. Sway was probably our most important player in our short playoff while I doubt Seth Jarvis was. The other side of the argument which I am on the side of is goalies are less easy to evaluate. The difference between a good goalie and a bad goalie is between the ears and less about athleticism. Also whether he plays on a strong team or not. If the Bruins were a shit team Sway’s numbers would be average at best. If the Canes were a shit team Jarvis would still most likely put up points. Take it a step further and we could say Jarvis has to depend on two line mates for a good measure of success and Sway has to depend on 18 other players for his shot at success. It’s not really fair but it’s life.

I like Swayman but if the contract is higher than seven I would move on .

Players generally stink after signing huge contracts they put to much pressure on themselves, there is usually an adjustment period year or so .

Players generally stink after signing huge contracts they put to much pressure on themselves, there is usually an adjustment period year or so . 100% and a goalie could be a hundred times worse. A player (skate) can just go out there and play hard and hopefully he works his way out of it. A goalie can’t do anything but stand in there and try to stay out of his own head. Much worse, especially if fans turn on him when he’s losing games.

We have two good goalies behind him and camp’s starting with or without him. Wondering at what point is he an UFA.
