For me it is was the mid 80’s Euhlers when i was little, the early 90’s Pens when I was a little older, and the Hasek late 90’s Sabres when I was a teen but understood the game better. 

One of these things is not like the other...

He's gonna sign with Toronto just in time and for a mid range term and year deal. Their real issue is next year when they have to pay Marner and Matthews and Reily. Marner is going to cost them $8+

Marner already has 30 assists, that's nuts.

i was discussing the Leafs salary cap with a Leafs fan and his final guarantee was that Matthews, Marner, Nylander would not be over $25M of their yearly cap. seems a tad low IMO

The way Marner is playing it would be shocked if he takes less than Eichel.

The way the Leafs are playing they should trade Nylander.

Landeskog-MacK-Rantanen broke the 100 point barrier as a line faster than any NHL line has since Heatley-Alfie-Spezza in 2005. Not sure how interesting that is given the propensity for teams to change their lines a lot, but those guys are ridiculous. 

For comparison, how close are Skinner-Eichel-Pommers (or Sam) to that mark?

Between just Jack and Jeff they're at 47. Sam has 17 points and Pommers has 18. Obviously thats just total points, not points as a line. At best they're at around 65.

Thanks. That's been our best line we've seen since the Drury/Briere days, and is still only at best 3/5ths as good as the MacKinnon line. It's tough to comprehend how good they have been.

Rielly deserves huge money too, the guy is over a point per game and playing very solid defensively. A legit top 15 1D, if not top 10. I just hope all of these guys wring every dollar out of them they can, and you're right that Nylander basically has to be traded.

Worth noting that Jack-Jeff-Pominville have probably only been a thing for ~17 of our games.

Carolina has waived G Scott Darling.

If I'm St Louis I might take a flyer on him.  He had save percentages of .936, .915, .924 over the past three seasons for Chicago prior to his current .888 this year.  Maybe with a change of scenery he could help the Blues.
