I guess this is where “ misery loves company” comes from

Why does it feel like we always have to be the helper and not the winner. We’re the DUFF (designated ugly fat friend) to the slamming blonde piece of ass.

although we do deserve him, we’ve been in pain around here long enough at this point. Hockey gods, please send an answer

He’s a damn bum I tell you! A bum of this doesn’t get done! Not even his own nephew likes him!

Yes his uncle, which makes this rumor seem even more possible that there is a connection. Have to wonder what is going on behind the scenes right now if anything at all

I like bratt, but I think I’d rather move him, a prospect and pick(s) over both severson and Mercer. I think Mercer has a lot of potential, but he may also fit there timeline better if they are looking to go through a full rebuild. We shall see.

Who is taking those two rocks off our hands??? Highly doubt this happens. Although, if we’re able to use severson ina. Trade scenario over bratt I’d love it, just don’t think it’s the likely scenario.

If we get tkachuk we better not be in the running for bedard… if we are, than I just don’t know.

I could most definitely see bratt or severson going the other way.. it’s going to take one of them. They can’t afford both bratt and tkachuk. Plus it will be a top end prospect and I’d have to imagine a first round pick. If it looks something like bratt(who I like but just broke out last year as opposed to a sure thing year after year with tkachuk), holtz, and the 2024 1st round pick(I’d hate to move the 2023 pick with it being a deep draft).. sign me right up.. as long as he comes with an extension obviously.. nothing gets done without an extension.

The more and more I think about it and read up the more and more I truly am starting to think we have a serious chance to grab tkachuk. Everything happens for a reason, maybe this johnny Ohio business was a blessing having him go elsewhere, I think the majority of us here all agree tkachuk would be a much better fit that JG. Now I’m just realizing that Tom Fitzgerald is this guys uncle?! Well, that can only be positive things I have to imagine.

There’s a dream, unfortunately probably a pipe dream. If he and Calgary decide they’re going to move on from one another and it’s going to be a trade, I’d have to think that whoever is trading for him is going to want him to commit to a new deal as soon as the transaction is on paper. He and Calgary will compile a list of destinations he’d be happy with im sure, or he will be traded and bounce at the end of the season. This, leaving Calgary not getting as large a return and some team that’s not the devils using him as a last minute pushed to the next step of the post season

There seems to be less and less filtering here, feel free to say whatever you want

I like the palat signing, is it a slight over payment, yea but that’s the deal in these situations. Really hope there can still be a deal made for an impact player somewhere.

With these things i do agree, however, when the surrounding teams are making moves in an already very tough and talented division to continuously improve, we cant sit on our hand and sign a couple guys that make 1mm that nearly no one has heard of.. see Damien Brunner. Amongst other bums in the past handful of years.

The truth hurts.
