Especially the guys who aren't top prospects when drafted. If they are going to Harvard, they may also really want that degree. That puts them very close to free agency. It would just always make me nervous. Honestly, I think one of the big reasons Walsh signed was just fitzy's relationship to Walsh's family Thrun was like 65 on Bob's list his draft year. I think he went more than a full round later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beekay414 Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 LOL of course the Leafs would have a player who's last name means struggle in German. He needs to be in the press box when the playoffs come around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This reeks of a playoff move. They needed bottom line help badly and Gauthier's game isn't a fit there. It's a really nice upgrade for them in that regard. Hopefully Ottawa gives Gauthier the opportunities. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sad when the Rangers got him and we had to "settle" for Kuokkanen a little while later lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GW21 Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 That Avs vs Oilers game was fun. Hopefully the Avs get Landeskog back soon and Makar isn’t out long. This team could very well be getting scary again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
