Clifton is 2 more years and could move. I don't think he should be factored in to their long term plans. They can afford that for the next 2 years and it's easy to argue that it's a good place to spend.

You really can't see KA seeing the problems his durability issues have caused? or analytics saying he just hasn't been that good?

Donnie's gone. Unthinkable changes are now possible.

Donnie's gone and poof, good things can now happen?

Adams has been a problem too.

I have a difficult time acting like Donnie was the source of most of their issues.

Easy to argue the 3rd pair is a good place to spend $$$?

Thought you've posted multipe times that it's a waste of money to overspend on the 3rd pair.

Sunk costs. Overpaying is a terrible reason to play someone up in the lineup.

Can one good thing, or even just a change, happen with Donnie gone? Call me an optimist.

Adams does the knights of the round table approach.

He asks his top front off guys what they think and they make a group decision.

Two years in a row now, that Bobrovsky contract is killing Florida. It has clearly proven that paying a top goalie doesn’t yield results of any kind.

Well I am sure someone will come and explain to you why it has. One has bet all his Hockeybuzz creds and the other eats Count Chocula and likes Wedding Crashers.

He has been great no doubt. Has stood tall in the net.

I'd rather have and pay Shesterkin $5.67 than Bob $10 though.
Rangers are facing that dilemma soon enough though.

Adin Hill, Darcy Kuemper, Jordan Binnington, Braden Holtby and Matt Murray agree with this statement.

Lightning won the first cup with Vasy making $3.5M in 2019/2020. They did win the second cup in the first year of his big extension with him making $9.5M before the dam burst at the seams.

Is it possible to win a cup with a goaltender making big money ? Yeah.

Has it happened more than once in the past decade ? Not as of today.

When Florida wins 4 more games, I’ll give you credit.

If they don’t and half the roster walks out the door afterwards, make sure you keep that same energy

But the point is, the team with a $10 million dollar goalie has been the best team in the Eastern Conference for 3 years now, has gone to the finals two years in a row, and will be the favorite against Edmonton or Dallas.

I had NYR and Dallas as my finals picks. I was two teams off. Florida beats Edmonton in 6.

I don’t see Rangers fans calculating Adam Fox’s buyout costs this morning though

Sit back and enjoy the show. It’s a marathon not a sprint.

Oilers had one token playoff appearance in a 13 year span from 2007-2020. And were the butt of all jokes for a long time.

RNH, Leon, McDavid, Bouchard, Nurse, heck even Broberg is getting in on the fun now and they are one win away from a Cup Final

Yeah one's 26 and hitting his prime and one is 30 and the Rangers need cap space.
