Rundblad will play the remaining of the season with the ZSC Lions (LNA), vice Swiss Champions and the favorite team for this season (also Auston Matthews plays in that team).

From what I've read on Twitter, his cap hit will now be $100k

Blackhawks made a trade: Jeremy Morin to Toronto for Richard Panik

Morin was totally useless for Coach Q...Panik may add depth in 4th line?

Drouin's name is being floated out there quite a bit and it is certainly evident at this point that the Blackhawks have indeed contacted the Lightning in regards to him. However, many teams have. He could certainly be a possibility for that 1LW spot but he still has a lot to prove. Question is, will the risk be worth the reward? I would fully expect that a team overpays for where he currently is...but where will he be in a year or two from now? Could be one hell of a player and certainly has a high skill set.

How in the hell do Rinne & Dubnyk get in the ASG before Crow?

Have to have each team represented... and the Rinne thing is because it's in Nashville.

Really, Toews shouldn't be there over Parise or Koivu this year and for that it should of knocked off an undeserving Dubnyk for Crow.

I thought Rinne was the #1 issue with Nashville?

How many goalies in NHL have six shut outs?

How the hell is a 2 time Norris, 3 time Stanley, reigning conn smithe not on it? I'll let it go just this year because he missed a month but he would make the team better in 3 vs 3.

Which can be an argument for Toews making it, because he might be one of the best two way 3 vs 3 players in the league. Too bad Hawks aren't sending Keith, Kane, Toews, Panarin, Crawford. As tight as the central division spots are, I still think those 5 make the team better at 3 vs 3. Seguin, Benn obviously due. It's just hard to knock any Hawk out other than Panarin based on resume.

I think we are seeing a little Yankee hate here, and fans shouldn't get to vote outside their division without some kind of player and coach weighted system

Sounds like many teams interested in Druin. Surely they want to trade into western conference, but I doubt highly they trade to Blackhawks of western conference. Also 6 goals in 90 games is no 1LW. And he seems like a malcontent in a great organization, with a play style like us so if he doesn't fit there?

Also both teams are looking for play NOW as opposed to waiting for devolopement. We will have to look elsewhere.

Coach Q extended another 3 years, through 2019-2020
I don't like it one bit. They'll never win a Cup with him behind the bench and Crawford in net.

I wish Car Bomb would come out of retirement so that the Hawks could sign him.
That sound?
Pez exploded.

I'd be sick too. Who wants to go to French Canadia in January? I don't.
