So, nobody likes my idea to get Carter.
That’s cool. Apparently the Leafs have an offer on the table for Grabovski which is a 2nd and prospect. Would that be a more managable price to pay if the offer was from Chevy?

Without Iron Mason standing on his head
there is no way we earn a point. We made the Minnesota ‘Mild’ look like the Red Wings at times tonight. Great 2 points, but we get slaughtered by the Bruins tomorrow if we give up chances like these.
Oh well, finally there are some positives! Kane with 2+1 plus SO winner!

I thought it was Stone Mason
No matter…but that in mind, perhaps the Red Wings might be interested in his services? Don’t get me wrong, i like the guy, but if we have tradeable assets that won’t hurt us too significantly…

If he’s deemed valuable, and as an upcoming UFA: why not?
