Hartman 10 games for his cheap shot on Stützle.

I’ve been pumping for Marner for a few days. Plays in all situations & an elite playmaker something we really need.

Rantanen no probs my 1st choice just like Marner too difficult to guess he’d sign here. Both will get paid Rantanen with the Canes my best guess.

As for a C Tavares for a stop gap?

Willander likely to ready & paying for Ekblad will block him for a long time. I think the D is done tbh.

I don't think I'd pay marner or raantanen. I'm ok with a JT stop gap forsure and I do agree on de. Amazing what one top 4 dman can do. I think it's just time to let the kids start to play use the cap space for short term deals and asset collection

He’s a POS a total loose cannon. No place in the NHL for players like him. Minny should put him on waivers if they have any respect for the game.

It’s been so long since we had a good top 4 it was overdue & wasn’t easy. Big misses on 1st picks really started it all. Picking Willander & RePetey was a big step forward & sorely needed. Still have Mynio & Kudryatsev & Mancini to develop. Adding MP made the long term outlook much better for many years.

On paying either Marner or Rantanen I hearya but with 11.6m for EP & Hughes gigantic deal to come I think it can be fit in under the cap. Debrusk is locked up MP should be soon enough. Plenty of cap space to use & will come down to allocation. I’m luvin all that cap & more is to come these next 3 years. Very important time to get it right.

The retool might have many fans looking optimistic. Next dominos will define this regime & the long time future. For once we are sitting in the cat bird seat with so many ways to choose which way to go from here.

The media should be talking this up much more & stop the digging for dirt on the players etc.

A massive change that I believe is going to occur is teams no longer spending to the cap or even close to it because they can't afford it. Some Canadian teams will be in massive trouble forsure. Some American teams just won't be able to afford it as it slowly creeps back to the way it was pre hard cap with the haves and the have nots

If I saw this sooner coulda spared y’all my 4217 earlier posts lol

Some teams that don’t spend to the ceiling will likely continue that. With the cap catching up from being smothered from the covid effect the revenues are getting back in line towards normalcy. Growth was inevitable & teams adjust to it. It’s not charity out there it’s spend to win or don’t spend.

I agree. That would be a Canucks first moment for the Captain. He needs some mending and rest. They will play the (frank) out of him in the tourney and give him back completely broken.
