This is assuming he doesn't **** the bed the beginning of the season.
Haha, perfect thank you!

Knowing the Devils, today's roster deadline will come and go very very quietly.

Elias is easy money in fantasy. Dunno how much longer it will be that way, but he's flown so low under the radar that I'm always able to get him in the later rounds. He was key for me last season.
Don't like to take any other Devils though.

Kovy puts up points, SOG, ATOI, and I think that's it. I'll take em and plug in +/- elsewhere

Should be 8pm. West coast teams have to rush to practice this morning and make decisions.

Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie
Only players on waivers today: McElhinney (CBJ), Butler (NJD), C Porter (STL).
Uhhhh what?

I swear, if we lose Butler AND have both goons on our roster AND eight D, then I don't know what the **** the logic is there.

There's no way Bobby Butler clears waivers. Someone will pick him up.

If he clears, he is still retained by the team
Probably means they plan to start with Matteau
Zubrus/Zajac/Kovy
Tedenby/Elias/Clarkson
Darche/Josefson/Matteau
Gionta/Carter/Bernier
....or they have other plans

Maybe it's to play in the AHL all star game? Not sure the point of waiving him if he has to be on the roster anyway.

Wow, did not see that coming. I thought for sure he was going to challenge for a 2nd or 3rd line spot. I guess that means Tedenby is going to stay for the foreseeable future?

Why would they risk someone else picking him up just to let him play in the AHL all star game? Makes NO sense.
I wonder if something else is up.
Next step is to see the tweets from practice start.... if someone is missing...

This is such a joke. This isnt the 90s anymore, we arent going to win every game without scoring.

Maybe this means Matteau made the team?

Unlikely, its 10 days away and if he was needed on the NHL roster, the AHL ASG would be more than an afterthought

Yes, Bobby Butler not being on this team will destroy our offensive hopes
Unless they have plans to bring somebody else in, it probably means Matteau and Darche are in their plans to be on tomorrows roster

Tom Gulitti @TGfireandice
Butler wouldn't clear waivers til noon tomorrow, so he'll have to be on Devils' 23-man roster today when it's set before 5 p.m.
Edit : In my opinion this is either a trade in the making, or Lou has seen Butler and decided Sykora is better for the job

It kinda does destroy our offensive hopes. You need secondary scoring, and we just dont have much of it. No Butler and now we have even less.
