I gave up on this thread weeks ago.
If this was a horse race we are entering the final turn and it's Detroit by a nose over Dallas, SJ is coming on strong while Vegas has lost steam and Boston is fading fast.

Islanders have come into the conversation.

I'd like to imagine Craig is still spending all his time on flights playing Age of Empires.

Have to wonder if Verbeek slyly crawls into this as a last second disruptor. They need an Andersson as much as SJ does and they have some interesting things.

Is this deal done and we are waiting for them to land or is there time for another to come in a land this thing.

That sounds very much not resolved and still up in the air.

Why is there an air of something imminent happening then?

If there are several teams in it and new ones entering the conversation, it seems like CC and company will continue weighing offers. Unless one is clearly sticking out for them over the others.

Royale posted this morning Conroy's doing his last call to all interested parties. So whomever had the deal done to get Conroy to wrap things up has it. But we know little outside of Boston is out of it. Vegas is out of it, don't know about Dallas but some big wig insider said they're still in it.


Oilfan said today that SJ made their offer and haven't been told ras isn't interested so they're now in it.

Almost everyone seems to think Detroit is the leader.

Sec last night we can thank Detroit for kicking things into this final stage

Not trying to call you out specifically, but I see this almost as much as I see people misspelling Parekh and Jarome on here, could be auto-correct on a phone but just to clarify:

Royle9 = Calgarypuck user that leaks us trade info
Royale = Toilet paper brand with cute kittens on their packaging

Thank you for paying attention to this important matter.

I don't know if this is true.

Murphy said that this morning but the way the tides were shifting last night it seemed like Boston was the front runner.

We’re waiting for the plane to Rasmus Landersson. If he isn’t traded by then, we’ll wait for him to get in his Rasmus Vandersson. IF nothing has been announced at that point the next milestone is after he plays a cover of Detroit Rock City in his Rasmus Bandersson.

I am fine if he's a throw in, I just don't want him as the "top" prospect. For example, sending Andersson and an AHL/ECHL contract for 1st + roster player + top prospect + Poitras.

He might have to walk in his house and ask his wife who is the Rasmus Mandersson, and consult with his Rasmun Clandersson. Maybe he wants to play one more game so his kid can be his biggest Rasmus Fansersson.

That was fun. Thanks for that
