You hear what you want to hear when you read their words.
This is the kind of player they really mean, though.

I mean prime Lucic would still be a force today… if you’re talking the Flames Lucic, well he sucked ass.

Broken down into pay per minutes played
Rempe probably is the highest paid player in the League

Should be. checks most of the boxes but christ do they need someone, (frank)ing anyone, to win a faceoff.

will gm's get fired over it?

Man, what has gotten into Bennett? He's a real Don Juan these days. Marchand Don Juan nothing to do with him. Neither did Kreider last night after scoring the empty netter. I'd be interested to see what a 2014 redraft looks like. Best draft in history of the league to go to in person and it's not even close. Bettman was never booed like he was booed that night. The no nonsense approach by GMTM to select Samsonite. Classic. Only in Philly.

yep

Who was the last trade or FA acquisition that was an immediate positive impact and stayed consistent?

yotes in 6

Your idea, huh? Crazy how your and Pegs’ ideas are always somehow posted after I say it first.
- Jet Jaguar BD

Now you are seeking approval feelings too?

Skinner for Tavares is certainly not a new idea.
U will probably notice it was posted many times over the past few months.
Calling out Ion for potential idea theft is a very super serious matter
Knowing what I know about their hometowns,
I think it would be a pretty good idea.
Toronto gets a 3 year winger to replace Mitch on half the celery
Buffalo gets a 1 year inflated middle 6 center.
Definitely worth a discussion regardless of the origination.
- TheSabresTaco

That's the line that makes me question the idea.

tell ya what. come gloat when jack roslovic and joe pavelski get their highest percentage contracts.
- TheSabresTaco

Who's gloating?

You suggested they need to fix their model because they based everything on the now rising cap.

What else are they supposed to -- artificially lower their projections by 10-20% because reasons...?

Max Domi took 452 faceoffs this year and won exactly half (226).

Also I would sign him
- Hank Balling

Would 3 years at $4.6M per still interest you for Domi?

since going to the rangers, he is producing at about a 47 point season pace counting the regular season and playoffs

probably come in on the cheap for his next contract

our savior cozens also put up 47 points last season

he consistently puts up middle 6 numbers 5 on 5 and has decent speed and can play pk if needed

if kicking skinner out, you need a more skilled winger than greenway in your middle 6 IMO
- homiedclown

Do you consider 3 years at $4.4M per coming on the cheap for Roslovic?

The tweak that makes the most sense is top line (or second line) younger players take like 75/80% of the increase, not a flat bump across the board imo.
* Idk how they implemented the increase, and they seem to do a pretty decent job and appreciate the drops from ya Cong. Just my thoughts on how it could/should play out.
- SDSabre

The prediction business is tough.

Their contract predictions are based on percent of cap limit.

Always have been, and it's why people that scream how can Dahlin make more then Makar don't understand anything other then salary.

Keeping the predictions based on what they have is the smart move for now, with how long it has been since the cap rose.

Will GM's be unable to resist handing out bloated contracts again?

One example is Konecny is looking for north of $10M per.

Is he really worth that?
