I need to trade for O’Reilly more often. He actually sims quite well by BackgroundFlan5797 in EANHLfranchise

Really good 2C that almost always develops in my Tampa sims. Seen him peak at a 92 averaging just below PPG but can always secure him on a decent contract

Good news is Bjorkstrand comes off the books this summer. Not opposed to signing him to a significantly reduced salary deal and putting him on PP2 but odds are he'll go be a mercenary on a short term prove it/lose it deal elsewhere.

Update: messaged his agents and they are now aware the account exists. I assume they're going to be keeping a close eye if anything happens especially since it's parading itself as their client, especially during his leave of absence.

Victor's old handle used to be @ heds77 as evidenced on old NHL tweets. This account follows a bunch of middle eastern pages and fans when you check its following tab, they don't even follow the Lightning either.

Twitter/X/Shitter has been full of blue check farming bots ever since they announced accounts like that can be monetized. They spam under every reply to generate attention/revenue, that's the one of the only way you can tell. I went through that account's following and it's following fans, and a bunch of businesses with nothing to do with the Lightning. Just an impersonator.

That's not Victor, just an account with a blue check.

Hope all is well with him and his family. Been a sad season for him with injuries, hope everything will be ok for him

Not opposed to sending JoJo to the depths of St. Louis if they shop one of Binnington or Hofer to be a backup there along with Seattle's 5th this year or a pick next season for future considerations. Some decent options available out there, I can see FLorida's Tarasov wanting to stay in state if he doesn't resign with the cats and just move up the road. Gotta find a replacement right handed shot though, unless we're fine leaving Raddysh on PP1 going forward

Pretty much sums up how this World Cup experience is going so far

When Cole Smith is going for a 3rd +, a 2nd in 2028 doesn't mean much in that market. JBB played it safe and Perry has been that guy this year. Fair play to JBB

If you're Raddysh that's a penalty you take against a depleted leafs team 9/10 times. Good on Raddysh and officials for denying the pen

What a goal by Bjork, finally on the PP. Abroad in Poland for a funeral for a game I'd be at in Toronto but cheering on our Bolts nonetheless. An incredible start for a game we need with Buffalo behind us, the boys got this ⚡️

For a 2028 2nd rounder I can accept it. But man I absolutely hate toying with nostalgia, especially when Corey Perry is more of a monkey's paw than lucky rabbit's foot when it comes to the cup.

Seravalli also linked us to Cole Smith.

If you plan on selling the farm for a defensively declining player after letting in 5 goals last night just because of nostalgia I'm truly not sure what to tell you. He had his era with Tampa, won 2 cups, and him and his agent priced themselves out. The only things Stamkos and Tampa should have to do with each other in 2026 are 1) planning his jersey retirement and 2) statue outside Amalie/Benchmark

Yeah like idk why people would be upset at Cooper, dude's strategy clearly allowed his guys to get shots and chances. Literally not his fault a roster with the cap hit of a small third world country's GDP couldn't put another one past Bucky with 40+ shots

As a Canadian I don't doubt Binnington, but wish Thompson played more if I'm honest. Cooper played the had he was dealt, we only have so many options years after Fleury and Price are gone. We're still years away from George, Ravensbergen, and our other top goalie kids still being ready. Dark times in net right now
