Blech.

I still wonder if any of the Oshie talks materialize. Even Shatty's name came up. His agent shot it down, but I really don't know.

Blech? Too high for Lehtera? Not arguing. Honestly curious.

I think so, yes. Perhaps this time he'll be more prepared for the rigors of an NHL season, but he was pretty useless for the last half.

I also think his numbers were more a product of being on a line with Tank and Schwartz than anything else.

Possibly a favor to Tank to encourage him to ink a good deal???

Jeremy Rutheford was on 101 ESPN a while ago and insinuated the Shattdueces rumor may have legs, to the point that he and a big name forward (Oshie, etc) could be involved in a blockbuster trade. He was reluctant to reveal details but it seemed like he was pretty sure that talks were ongoing.

Oshie traded to the Caps for Troy Brouwer, goalie Pheonix Copley, and a 3rd.
