Congrats to the old warrior; he went through a lot here and I'm happy he got his ring

Seemed like they flooded their engine and had to wait for it to clear out

Ottawa bent us over with the Lehner deal based on Lehner's issues and us taking back a cap dump. Ironically though, the cap dump ended up being very useful as a solid 4th line center and vet presence

Boston only gained 2 mil in cap space and downgraded their 2nd goalie but did get a late 1st for it.

Hamilton should be back, he had a 3 to 4 month recovery from Dec 6th of last year. With Hamilton and Pesce they would have RHDs Hamilton, Pesce, Marino, and Nemec LHDs Hughes, Seigenthaler and technically McDermond Hence the reason we’d offer them Ryan Johnson as he’s a LHD.

Booooooo

😕

That would be a terrible contract for this team. 4.5mil is my sweet spot

I like the two bolded moves, dislike the other two. Farabee doesn't impress me in the slightest Foegele strikes me as a playoff darling this year that will be overpaid

Except if Tavares waives to go elsewhere, he only is owed 1 mil cash after July 1st Link for this Hockey buzz commenter please

I don’t trust McGroaty to sign and I have zero interest in promising him an NHL spot

Trading 11 for Laughton and Deslauries should get their staff fired instantly

That honestly would be hilarious just to see Toronto fans wring their hands in outrage

I wish I could both roll my eyes at your comment and the idiocy of not editing the video. Its one of those annoyed and exasperated eye rolls both at the need to make jabs and at the team for making it far too easy.

They can't they used up all 3 slots

Here’s a question Skinner & Krebs for Rakell and Accari We save cap and replace both players Rakell, we can use for a year or two then buy him out.

I do remember for a fact that part of our reason for being able to get him was location

Neither have great analytics; Jensen being worse

Goodrow was picked up by the Sharks so we never even had a shot in this case

Oddly tame to what we were expecting.

The main reason is because Kane wouldn’t be 9mil and has tons of playoff experience. If Skinner were making 6 mil you wouldn’t hear anything. If Kane makes 4mil, he ends up better bang for the buck. Still a one way player but it’s far less troublesome when said player isn’t your 2nd highest cap hit on the team.

My one “fear” is that Minnesota wants to build around Boldy, Rossi and Faber and they want Jack Quinn to reunite him with Rossi. That would be an extremely tough pill to swallow

That’s what confuses me besides the fact their offense is effectively 2 lines which includes Johansson and 36 year old Mats Zuccarelo. Rossi is their lone offensive threat beyond the Top 6 and his wingers are Hartman and Foligno. Great for grit, not so much for scoring. Their 4th line are 3 dudes that are just happy to be there
