OMFG.  The Senators got Jacob Chychrun from the Coyotes for only a 1st round pick in 2023, a 2nd in 2024, and a 2nd in 2026.  WTF, Blake?  I would have loved the Kings to pay that.  He had term for two years.  The Sens don't even need to give up a prospect.

The Sens are on the come.

Jingle.son and I have the last two games of the season for Buffalo - vs Canes and Sens. We are salivating at the thought that BOTH games could have playoff implications, especially the last one possibly being a win-and-you're-in scenario.

I'm now seeing that the Kings picked up a Sabres prospect goalie, Erik Portillo, for a 3rd round pick.  I'm also seeing that Columbus may be flipping or already have flipped Quick to Vegas (which would add an additional level of suckitude to this).

On the other hand, as someone pointed out...

In both 2012 and 2014, the Kings made a deadline deal with Columbus and won the Cup.  It's destiny!  It's what they needed to do!

The first time the Devils and Avs played it was a 1-0 nailbiter, so naturally their game last night at a 5-4 score halfway through the second :lol Still, a win's a win and Timo will hopefully be healthy enough to join us soon :hat

That trade never would have happened under Melnyk's watch.  The Sens have entered the chat for sure.

Hate to see the Red Wings selling, but it's the right move, and the return for Hronek (1st and 2nd in upcoming draft) was massive. Pretty much every grade I've seen has Detroit winning that trade. Bertuzzi going is rough, but considering his package included a 1st as well, don't hate it.

Damn.  The East playoff path is just fucking brutal.

Pasta 8 years/$90M.  Seems about right for him.  Unsurprisingly, Hall on LTIR (until game 1 of the playoffs no doubt).

Bummed about Hall, though.

Looks like it's officially official.  Per sources, Quick has been traded to the Golden Knights.

People say Rob Blake makes conservatives moves.  He just made a big move with huge ripples.  Hope it's worth it.  Kings needs to perform well or he and Marc Bergevin should be out of here.

I hope Edmonton wins the division, so it's LA/LV in round 1.

Well...I don't think Quick will be starting for them, but I wouldn't mind avenging that embarrassment of a series from a few years ago.

I also hope Edmonton wins the division, but that has nothing to do with 1st round match ups lol

It's not going to get any easier from here regarding the RSN situation.  Half the league are having issues with their own regional sports network and there's no easy solution on how to get out of this.  There will be pain and the cap is at risk to not increase at a rate GMs would rather prefer.

It's good to be Canadian.  We don't get too many games of US-US teams, but then again, there aren't many of those that I care too much about.  Watched the first 2 periods of the Sabres/Bruins tonight - glad I didn't watch the 3rd.

Nice to see Pitt prevent TB from getting 2 points, and then the Leafs grab a W when they played like ass for 40 minutes.  I'd really like to see them curb-stomp the Canucks on Saturday.

Yo, Nick.  I'm reading that there was almost a deal made from the Red Wings getting James van Riemsdyk with the intention of the Wings flipping him elsewhere and the trade got nixed.  The deadline has passed and sources say that the Flyers couldn't trade JVR in time.  WTF?  Isn't he a UFA?

Chuck Fletcher GM'g like Chuck Fletcher.

What would've been an even bigger gaffe would've been if Anaheim didn't move Klingberg, and they almost didin't.

Now that the dust has settled on the trade deadline, how do you feel your team fared?

As for the Oil, they didn't do much but it'll have an impact. This is how it boils down as an Oilers fan:

Jesse Puljujärvi - Out
Nick Bjugstad - In

They weren't traded for each other, but that's essentially where Bjugstad will slot in. This is an upgrade given how inconsistent Puljurarvi has been....pretty much his entire career.

Tyson Barrie - Out
Mathias Eckholm - In

This is a huge win for the Oilers. Eckholm should provide some much needed defensive play, especially compared to Barrie. We're losing some offense in this deal, but as the league's top offensive team it can certainly be spared.

Lastly, while not a trade, having Evander Kane come back from injury will be like adding a 30-40 goal scorer at the deadline. It's unfortunate he's missed most of the season with his wrist slitting injury, and the more recent rib injury. Assuming he can return anywhere near his usual form, this is a big addition for the stretch.

I'm cool with the draft haul StL made by dealing their UFA's plus the pick up of Vrana and Kapanen. They still need to trade/dump one or two of these contracts they have on Defense though. I'd prefer it to be Krug but I can't see anyone touching that horrid contract. Paryako may be moveable this summer because for all his faults he can still be a good defensemen wheras Krug, Leddy and Scandella can't.

So...It'll be an interesting offseason for sure from a Blues fan perspective.

Well, the Kings got rid of Brendan Lemieux (which was fine because he was more of a healthy scratch and was basically useless this season) and sent him to the Flyers and got another guy from the Flyers that looks to fill the role of s***disturber.  Also made the usual AHL trades.

Other than that, they filled a needed void on LD and Gavrikov looked ok on yesterday's game despite not playing for two weeks since CBJ wanted to trade him earlier so they healthy scratched him for that long.  Then comes trading Quick for Korpisalo and it's going to be a very polarizing move for the years to come regardless of end result.  I will say this.  As callous as the team handled the Quick matter, I will say Rob Blake has given the team the best chance to do well in the rest of the way and they should be rewarded as such.  Four players on the Kings with 20+ goals and maybe two more gets added to the list at the end of the season.  When's the last time you see that?

jingle.boy

I'm surprised there wasn't anything more than an exchange of minor leaguers by Dubas. But they've got cap room to activate Murray, and have one league min contact on the roster as the 13th forward if any of the current 12 go down. But given their glut of defence men, and the fact they dressed 11-7 last night, I'm not concerned about where they are with the roster.

As Chad has already eluded to, the fact that JVR remains on the Flyers roster at this time is PEAK Chuck Fletcher, just unreal.

Flyers moved out Patrick Brown, Zack MacEwen, and Isaac Radcliffe (not NHL regular), for a 5th, 7th, and an expiring UFA with no expected impact in Lemieux.

Complete and utter incompetence from a team that should have been selling harder than half the other teams that did.

Interestingly, my son went to Vegas yesterday to hang with a friend, and they're going to the VGK game tonight.  I told him to say hi to Quick.  I hope his performance for Vegas is just what it was for the Kings this season.

One thing I'm also very happy about is that Tampa didn't (couldn't?) do anything more. There was a rumour they were trying to get Joel Edmundson.

Still Boston is going to be tough for anyone to get by. My only hope (if the Leafs get by Tampa) is that Boston has had everything go right for them for the past 60 games, and they flame out if anything starts to go sideways. It can happen. Just ask 2019 Tampa.

So this video from TSN has came up to my radar.  James Duthie from TSN composed a song about creating a bad team and why it's worth it to get a guy like Connor Bedard at the draft.  It's honestly a pretty catchy song.  Good satire.
