The roller coaster that is the the Jack Eichel saga continues to twist and turn. Trade talks heated up and cooled this week. Seems like talks have reheated today. Stay tuned.

Discussions about whether or not to trade Jack Eichel may or may not have taken place. I've also heard that more conversations may or may not be taking place right now, as well as in either the near or the distant future. Stay tuned.

A couple of weeks ago it sounded like it was Anaheim or Calgary
This week it sounded like Vegas or Calgary

Calgary’s been a constant so I’m just gonna assume we got this lol

This is probably an apt description for every Darren Dreger tweet.

I doubt there’s a webmaster continually manually updating roster pages. Surely the database is interlinked to a league transaction system.

We're talking about a league that still thinks fax machines are a pretty cool idea. I wouldn't trust them to do tech right.

It sure feels like Buffalo has misplayed their hand at this point. We will never know but I wonder if the actual return winds up being less than the best offer they had on the table.

That means the website would be the best source of official trades and signings on Trade Deadline and Free Agent days…. which isn’t the case

Not with some type of propagation delay, but I only play a software developer on TV.

Nothing like being in your thirties and getting asked where you plan to go to school.

As for the body becoming less invincible, its just more of an excuse to be active and get in shape.

But yes.. there is that threshold where it is no longer a fun thing.

Dreger must not be getting many retweets these days.

It's probably just Sutter wanting to give Zadorov game time. But Valimaki did play pretty well last game, it does makes you wonder a little.

Wouldn't they have scratched Monahan too though? Especially with Richardson no longer on IR.
