Why? Legit question. What does he bring, seems fringe to me.

What do you do with Bollig, he's untradable, no?

Byron replacement. We need a guy to come in and not bring the team down on that bottom 6.

There are 6 guys in the AHL that can be a Byron replacement. This team doesn't need Oiler castaways.

Not just Oilers. Coyotes and Leafs too. If he can't stick with those teams, then he's not an NHL player.

Wait, maybe he is a Byron replacement.

Why would we take a cast-off from Toronto?

We have better options in Stockton, and don't need to clutter up our roster with any more below average forwards.

If it was me, I'd waive him with the assumption that our team in California gets a new former child star and chew the money.

That said, Hartley is in love with Bollig's gorgeous beard, so it won't happen. Hartley loves Bollig's beard so much he won't even put it in the press box.

This team doesn't need a replacement for Byron. The team was willing to lose Byron for nothing because he was replaceable. We don't need a replacement player for someone the team didn't need.

This team needs offense and someone who can score, there are enough guys who play "gritty" and can't score on the team already.

Be nice. He didn't say 5th draft pick, he said 5th. That could be anything.

A 5th of Vodka, for instance.

Not only is the value not enough but the Ducks problem is lack of offense, why in the hell would they consider it? Defensively they are fine.

Nothing really new here. Big takeaway is how a team like the Kings were hot and heavy for d earlier have cooled their pursuit after they shuffled their mix and found pairings that worked. Will have to be some injuries or teams finishing evaluating their teams before we see anything.

Chris Nichols @NicholsOnHockey:

LeBrun: #CBJ, #Flames, #NHLDucks have been "very active, talking to other teams." #Sabres, to some degree, because they'd like to add a D.

And then you have dreger.

@NicholsOnHockey: Dreger: "The direction I got from Brad Treliving is they're not going to do anything." 1/2 #Flames

@NicholsOnHockey: Dreger on Treliving: "He's not burning the phone lines looking for a trade, looking for an upgrade." #Flames 2/2

These guys both work for tsn. Do they not talk?

OH they talk. It's just that Dregger only talks to himself and the voices in his head.

I'd believe Nichols.

Treliving is not about to get fleeced. He won't make a trade unless it makes sense for the team
