Is Ferraro, Musty, Cags and Edm 1st enough for Fox???
Rooting for sharks playoffs. Rooting for Vegas collapse ofc always and Edm collapse.
Best case scenario two top 7 picks 😂
Oilers’ next 4 games could be enough to put them into a tailspin: Carolina, Vegas, Colorado, and Dallas. The Sharks are 4 points back and have 3(!) games in hand so yeah there could be some movement.
Eklund plus a 2nd tier prospect for Nemec all day long. Then a 1st plus prospects for Owen Power in the offseason.
there is absolutely no way I can ever route for Vegas , hell no !!!!
Fox has played 82 games once in seven seasons – given his size, this isn’t likely to improve going forward. I think there’s a huge risk of paying a ton for a guy who’s gonna be less and less reliable. The fact that US hockey didn’t want him for the Olympics should be a clue on where things are heading with him. Also don’t think he wants to play on the west coast, so it likely doesn’t matter anyway – he has full control where he goes if he opts to leave.
