  1. Yeah that’s not that much of an accomplishment.
  2. Why would the Bears have interest in Mike Evans?
  3. He can’t run block for horsefeathers and he played in a garbage division so it wasn’t that hard to not give up sacks against that schedule. But then he did in the playoffs once he faced decent opponents he’s a bad starting center you can try to hide between quality guards, or hopefully replace with a younger guy and use him for depth
  4. I would like to see the wild flame out in the first round of the playoffs to spoil Quinn Hughes’ impression of the team
  5. Not really interested in Crosby for two firsts but if they get something like third round picks in return I wouldn’t hate it. 3rd rounders should still be contributors even if they have very little chance of being difference makers. This team is gonna need picks to replace older players once Caleb gets paid. And Crosby probably only has 2-3 years of being an impact player. Sweat only has 2 years left on his deal. You’d have to draft their replacements in 2026/27/28.
  6. Foligno to Minnesota where he’ll play with his brother, and against the Blackhawks twice this month. Bedard and bertuzzi will wear the A. nobody gets a C until Connor gets it next year, imo.
  7. Kind of makes you wonder what the guy who signed them in the first place was thinking
  8. Make it 5 firsts and 7 seconds in the next three drafts. if Florida ends up top ten this years that’s 3 firsts in 2027, just begging to trade two of them for some established scoring threats but they’ll be happy to take some guys that won’t go pro until 29/30
  9. Another frustrating come from ahead loss last night. It helps their lottery status but not their “let’s see these young guys take a step forward” status. Florida also lost in a scrappy affair at the devils. Florida, NJ, Winnipeg and Chicago are all bunch together in the bottom half of the top ten area for the draft lottery. Florida keeps their pick if it’s top ten, with chicago then taking an unprotected 2027 1st. Everybody expects Florida to improve next year with Barkov back from knee surgery, but that roster is old and becoming perpetually banged up. So who knows where they’ll next next April. Ben Pope wrote that Boisvert is expected to sign soon with BU season winding down. Not exactly breaking news but he and Frondell could he playing in the NHL this month. Boisvert is a maybe a top 6 guy at best, but probably not a huge difference maker. I think he can be a valuable guy if he makes it to a second nhl contract, but I don’t see home being a longterm contributor with several other forwards ahead of him in the pecking order.
  10. If you’re solid at both guards I’d think it makes sense to be working in the more affordable range for C now.
  11. They made it official so before any additional trades, likely at least one, the hawks have in the next three drafts: 4 firsts 7 seconds Plus an extra fourth. as they bring in more and more of their prospects they will need to make contract decisions sooner rather than later and by 29/30 they may need to make some rough decisions. These 11 picks can be very helpful for backfill once they move on from a bunch of this current batch of prospects. but more likely than not they will be looking to make trades of draft picks for players at least by the lead up to the 2028’draft, if not sooner. I would not be surprised if they get another ‘27 or ‘28 pick from whoever they trade next. And other GMs are probably going to be fine dealing picks further out on the time horizon.
  12. Make that a 2028 2nd rounder, which gives them more than two picks in the first two rounds each of the next 3 years. By 2028 Edmonton could be a lottery team, potentially making that pick more valuable, despite the cost of time
  13. That would be 4 2nd rounders this year, which makes me think we’ll have another trade up situation like when they made the move with the islanders
  14. Hug watch update on an off day. Murphy is headed to Edmonton for a 2nd rounder. They retained half his salary and have one retention spot left.
  15. People are upset when the bulls lose now?
  16. Wyatt Kaiser is going to be skating soon. Rinzel and Korchinski are up practicing with the team now and both could potentially play in the first game back. But you have to assume at least one gets sent down if/when Kaiser is back unless Grzelcyk/Murphy gets traded soon.
  17. Finnish them!
  18. Attending NFL football games in person sucks anyway so let the freaking Hoosiers have their tartar sauce.
  19. I’d prefer 4v4. It’s gonna be fast but less individually focused. even if you go for 10 minutes then 3v3 first whistle after 10.
  20. The bears rent accounts for a smaller portion of revenue than people think. There’s 8 dates you’d have to fill and now no conflicts with bears insisting it stays unused in the fall. It’s also an incredibly unique venue from a national perspective that people want to see. I would also like to see it turned into public parkland, but they are going to try and bleed revenue from it.
  21. Chicagoans will learn to pronounce and spell it correctly and it will continue to host concerts and other events, like college football and soccer.
  22. I’d be shocked if the got as good as a 4th
  23. Wasn’t it largely based on two bad starts to end the season? Fans half jokingly were thankful that Darnold turned into a pumpkin at the end to prevent them from making the mistake of signing him. if they win one playoff game they probably sign him
