Plus, I think a lot of us think a certain "kind" of player should only be making X dollars. But, the league shifts and sometimes they're right in the ballpark of what they "should" be making relative to their peers.

The league hasn’t shifted enough with this revenue plight. The broadcast money seems to be in jeopardy yet they dole out guaranteed long term large contracts to players.

An unpopular choice here, but I'd like VAN to get Greenway.

Stillman for Greenway Minny 2nd.

The Canes helmets look great.

Maybe more teams stylize theirs.

Here ya go Vantel. Someone else did it for me.

Lol

If Mantha was 1/5.7m not 2/5.7m he’d be ideal to get from the Caps for a cap dump.

The cap would’ve gone up more but the escrow from covid holds it back.

Dog fight in the east for the WC spots. Caps are in tough & helping them helps us bump NYI out of the WC potentially.

So they aren't free agents?

6 teams in the east are in the thick of it for the 2 spots. Lots of opportunity there to be had if all of em are pushing for the PO’s

Pens
NYI
Caps
Fla
Sabres
Wings

That seems to be driving the new JTM trade rumors. Boeser further down the list behind other sellers. Like Sharks, Yotes, Ducks, Hawks and CBJ.

WA/FLA are 2 teams that need to get some wins quick.

NYI started the arms race & now it’s hard to gauge how the others will react. The wait & see will end soon as teams decide on if pushing or not. Sabres & Wings are trending up & might continue on their plan & not make a big splash. Older teams I suspect will while their window is still open. Pens & Caps namely.

Agree. FLA especially after last season. Cap space is the problem & our weapon. Caps are old & want Ovi to get another shot.

Trade announcement: The #Sens have acquired forward Julien Gauthier and a conditional seventh-round draft pick in 2023 from the
@NYRangers
in exchange for forward Tyler Motte.

Trade conditions: Should the Rangers advance past the First Round of the 2023 Stanley Cup Playoffs, the pick will improve to the lower of the Rangers’ or the @NHLJets 2023 sixth-round selection.

Dhaliwal:

Canucks are not shopping Hoglander, Teams are calling, Hoglander camp has not asked for a trade. No contract talks yet with Hoglander.

Good trade for the Sens. Rangers get Motte back. Just a tweak.

Small bump on his contract my guess. Patience needed for him. Tweener imo that hasn’t found how he fits into the NHL yet.

Tossing this out there…

Boeser stays to see if he gets back his scoring touch &/or to up his value.

So who to move between Garland or Beauvillier comes to mind.? Garland has more term. Beau looks like he has more game & cheaper & still under contract next year.

No I don't.

- boonerbuck

You are such a toxic liar 🤮

Like Bettman or not him starting up outdoor games is a stroke of genius.

Big attendance & helps promoting the game in many markets. NBA cannot touch it.

Sorry, been watching Nashville vs Minny. Minny is flying to start.

Familiarity from playing their last season. Reclamation project plus a pick still. Sens don't need more prospects.

Did he say if JTM is on the block?

The team that could be calling on him is the Jets. They have massive cap space and core ripe and ready to win the wide open West. The extension probably attractive for them too as having hard time signing players.

It wasn't mentioned but what I was listening to was from the 17th. Friedman wasn't trying to screw with Canucks fans until yesterday.


I had not thought of WPG but that could be interesting. PLD has pretty well said he isn't going to sign with Wpg. I doubt WPG wants to mess too much with how they are playing right now.

Maybe add Miller now and then re-coop the assets they trade for Miller with trading away PLD in the summer time.
