Probably but it shouldn’t be.

Trade Krebs, Joker, prospect and number 1 for Ehlers and Iaffolo and sign Henrique and I’ll be happier then if I was a Predator fan!

That’s funny because I just thought the same thing.

Decent depth signings

I really like Ottawa’s signing of Amadio. Could end up being best signing of today.

Best thing that has happened today for Buffalo is Stamkos and Marchessault signing out west and Boston spending like drunken sailors for a third line center and a 4/5 defenseman.

San Jose

Demand is less then we believe. None of our prospects that are not currently in the NHL are considered star quality. Every NHL team has someone like them, Buffalo just has more of them. If KA was willing to package three or four of them he'd likely get a taker from a team ready to go full rebuild. He isn't. He could also easily trade Benson, Quinn, JJP or Owen but he rightfully will not do it.

Probably 3 X $12. Supposedly "fake years" are league scrutinized but we know we can't rely on that.

Once again it’s Andrew Peters being full of crap.

yes

Have no idea about him as a person but there is a reason Edmonton basically relieved him of his duties a year ago. He was pretty much a figure head after Jackson was hired. Detroit couldn't get rid of him fast enough. He was great when there was no cap and money hid his mistakes.

Ken Holland is awful.

If he waives to a team he wants to go to he guarantees himself full value of his contract. If goes the buy out route he might earn less. It might not be a huge difference but it’ll likely be less.

He can get the deal then but it won’t kick in till 2025/2026 and by then it will be at least $95.9M and likely higher.

And the cap will be approaching $100M by the time Benson needs avdeal

It’s how the league works now. The key is gambling on the right guys.

That would be my assessment as well. Strome is weird in that he has put up numbers but I’m not sure he brings anything else if that makes any sense.

For what its worth I have heard a few people mention that Washington and Buffalo have had some serious talks which brings up the same names as in past, Dylan Strome, Nic Dowd and Tom Wilson whom I had heard talk about last year but that was before the contract extention.

I was thinking besides Shrader's original post but yes, that's correct and I think they may again after this year.

Also, the Jazz from New Orleans to Utah and the Stars kinda kept the name from the North Stars. I can’t think of anyone that rebranded and stayed in the same city.

Technically you can add a player but he wouldn’t be eligible to play. Like you said, it’s never going to happen. Even a cut throat team like Vegas wouldn’t take the chance.

Three more years at $3.6M, no thanks

I really like the interview as well.
