Can't wait to see what they do with Magnus Paajarvi after this season. He's actually been a decent producer at ES considering the lack of ice-time he's been getting, but I doubt Tambo even knows what that means.

Also kind of funny that they wanted Volpatti, didn't claim Sestito, and now they're giving up assets for Brown. Tambo logic.

Trades like this show Tambo clearly has no idea what he's doing. Better players than Brown have cleared waivers in the past month.

He'll have to change his name to Lifercanucker with how much time he spends on this board. Maybe a classic Harold Snepsts would fit him better.

The gift that keeps on giving.

And you know they'll scapegoat Tambo at the end of this season.

But as long as the Old Boys Network, with Lowe being the great Oz, we can continue to enjoy watching them ruin prospects and disgrace their franchise. No small wonder that Edmonton fans are feeling and feeding the anger.

Plus there's living in Edmonton...

Speaking of the Brown to Edmonton deal, Bobby Mac says the 4th is conditional, but moves up to a third rounder in 2014 if the Coilers make the playoffs this year. Marvelous asset management by a team in our division. Watching their fans try to rationalize this deal has been truly comical.

Now would be the ideal time to move Ballard to the Oilers for Paajarvi. Seriously. They have the dumbest manager/coach combo in the league.

In addition to NSH claiming Bobby Butler from NJD on waivers, PIT puts Zach Boychuk on waivers.
Remember when a bunch of Canucks fans wanted to claim him?

I obviously don't want to trade Ballard, but I have to admit it would be fun to have him troll AV on a division rival.

Tallas was a passable NHL backup for a short time. If there was any kind of emergency situation, he'd probably fare better than Chris Levesque.

For the same reason that PIT claimed him. He's a young player that has produced at every other level. Don't be surprised if somebody else claims him (although I think Carolina get first dibs?).

Im surprised more teams don't do that for emergency call ups instead of using local beer leaguer and local University goalies.

sounds like a montreal pickup they can use his size. actually if i was Florida i would pick him up since he can turn up to be their Grabner. Boychuk is fast like Raymond.

Well, combine the two and they finish two games under .500, which this year is enough to win the division by twenty points.

Where have you been living? Under a rock? Kunitz and Crosby have had some chemistry for quite some time already

The pucks has to move from Kesler to the other player or from the other player to Kesler for them to have chemistry. So we'd better get a passing winger.

well Schroeder would be good winger but he suited for center more and Kesler to the wing......either way it works

Someone like Alex Tanguay?

Never liked the guy much since he's played for our division rivals for the majority of his career though.

Crosby is the best player on the planet, no two-ways about it.

Yeah as much as I hate to say it, nobody is better than Crosby when he's healthy.

I'd be pretty surprised if Carolina didn't claim him again since they can send him back down to the AHL.
