Around The NHL 2012-13

[Paul Allen]

On the subject of still unsigned RFA's, any thoughts on the Ryan O'Rielly situation in Denver?

He'd look good out there with our forwards.

[Cullksinikers]

I think ROR would be more likely to get his OS matched than Subban. Each guy, if given an OS, would be signed for around a $5 million AAV.

O'Reilly wanted to be paid #2 C money (Last I heard).. Not worth it with his injury in KHL and his limited (Though intriging) NHL sample size

No one should be ready to pay him based off his season last year big $$$

1st + 3rd + that Cap Hit? Don't you think we should use this to get a goalie?

Dale's team is getting humiliated at home

7-1 Flyers midway thru 3rd

Panthers will be 1-4 after tonight

[puterwiz53]

The Panthers are really hurting with Weiss and Versteeg out with injuries. Theodore is atrocious. Maybe Uncle Dale should make a trade with the Hawks for Emery.

[puterwiz53]

The Hawks won't make any offer sheets, they will wait to see if O'Reilly goes on the shopping block and he might come cheap due to his injury and maybe not. Subban is the more likely one to be traded but the Canadians will be asking far too much for him. The Hawks can't afford to give up any more draft picks and probably don't even have the draft picks to do an offer sheet.

Offer sheets are pointless

Lead to overpayment league wide and just leave animosity between GM's

And O'Reilly isn't worth the $$$ he wants

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

The Panthers are seriously dinged up.

Darn the Blues win 4-3

Whitney hit post with a minute left ,, Stars were an inch away from tying game

[Blackhawkswincup]

he's horrible to watch. i don't like him to begin with...so tend not to give him the benefit of the doubt - but it can't be denied his play has been awful.

kessel has yet to score a goal.

[Bubba88]

Sharks are on fire... Marleau has 8 goals in 4 games

First round pick should be a very late one, and not worried about a 3rd rounder. Would absolutely be fine with his cap hit. Would be the PP QB we are dying for.

[Bubba88]

would make no sense with our D.

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Subban will be a franchise defenseman. Yes please.

[No Fun Shogun]

Blues just tied it up with Minnesota with about 8 to go in the third.

[Blackhawkswincup]

Wild blowing it

3-2 Wild lead now 4-3 Blues lead

[No Fun Shogun]

Yup, Wild fell apart all of a sudden.

[Sevanston]

Vancouver is hilarious.

Marleau is ridiculous.

[DisgruntledHawkFan]

Heatley is revitalized with Parise.

[No Fun Shogun]

But Wild tie it up after the closest you can get to high sticking without high sticking.
