West gets stronger. Fantastic. Now 8 x 12M extension signed with the Stars. At least the Canes got some nice picks out of it all, but maybe they would rather just have Necas back for a playoff run. Necas is about to pass Rantanen in league scoring. Mmm I wonder why Smart management from Carolina. Not to trade for him in the first place but to realize the sunk cost and trade him rather than sewer their cap for a mackinnon-less rantanen. Ideally the contract with Dallas would have been a bit higher but this is still good news for oilers fans. Dallas is not a major threat. Now Colorado... They are a massive concern. Have to give sakic credit. Realized who the drivers were and dumped Rantenans ass at peak value before the rest of the league realized. It's got nothing to do with Rantanen. It's all about the other loser they traded for. Guy is a hockey cooler. Just drags the team down wherever he goes. Just a massive loser. Rantanen with his league leading (tied Ovechkin) 8th(!) empty net goal last night! EN's shouldn't count for the Rocket

Dang, I haven't looked at the rocket race in a while. Drai is 11 up on the 2nd place guy (46 vs 35) while not being able to hit an empty net to save his life. So impressive, but also kinda unimpressive at the same time :)
