NHL Transactions, Injuries & Rumours

[Robin Hood]

Dale Tallon was on Prime Time Sports yesterday. It was a pretty amazing interview. Never seen a GM be this frustrated and straight up. Watch it if you can, it will be worth your time:

Dave Tallon is a good GM, however he has some work to do. That dressing room sounds like it's Toxic in Florida, he needs to address some of those issues, especially with all the young talent on that roster.

Watch the interview, he was asked point blank if he would be firing his coach and he pretty much said he was going to. So this was no surprise to me.

He's living proff a guy like Patrick Roy is good with young teams. They need someonw who's not affraid to stick up for the players and take the heat.

Yep - Dallon is wicked furious. Sounds like coach is DONE, quiet direct shorts at Steeg/Campbell/Kopy/Fliech though -> high paid veterans who aren't showing up prepared to play, following the rookies instead of leading them...


I think Markstrom's slow start is giving him fits as well - the development path of goalies is impossible to track. Touted as ready to start for years, clearly goalies is one position where waiting an extra couple of years is a sound call. Bernier was said to be ready to start since he was a rookie, and although he looks it now, this could veyr much be a product of the prolonged time as a backup - Fleury despite his physical abilities still having trouble ... always a tough discussion when it comes to player development.

Not a chance, we have far too many dmen. We need to make space for Tinordi and Beaulieu as is...

[Sensfanjosh]

How has he looked? If his mobility is coming back I might not mind the Sens taking a shot on him.

[kimmer]

lol tinordis done bro he'll never have another nhl shot
why do u think i let him go so easily

[Bruyns]

Awesome, I'm happy I traded him the same day after I got him. Didn't realize he would never have another shot in the NHL so dodged a bullet there.

Damn if Paul says so it must be true...

[Nick]

I love Beaulieu, hate that he's a hab though.

[Shoalzie]

Not a huge blow to my team if he (Whitney) doesn't get claimed...he's my 7th/8th D anyway with along Komisarek. Pardy getting regular playing time with the Jets with all their injuries and Murray is back to being solid periph D with Montreal.

[kimmer]

whatever shoazlie, who cares

pardys a joke anyway

Oilers-Bryzgalov discussions escalating. Edmonton had to move Smid money to make room for goalie.

[Robin Hood]

Yup just heard on TSN. This should be fun.

[Robin Hood]

Btw, Shoalzie just got screwed.
