There is word today that Edler’s availability for the expansion draft — at one point a major issue — has been resolved. That’s a big reason for the optimism and sense an extension is gaining steam
Dhaliwal reporting talks have gone well over the last 24 hours and the major issue(s) seem resolved.

And an ocean between us!
Looks like a deal should get done then. I can accept increasing AAV a bit as long as there is no protection from the expansion draft.

Is Rick Dollywall the new pipeline for breaking news? Or shit-talker Sekeres and his cronies?

Rick made doom and gloom then Rick made the sun poke it's head out; Fluke or strategic planning?

Sounds like you made Mick sleep in the wet spot
Speaking of wet spots..... how many times do you think the Dude has soaked his bed in piss after a bender? I’m not talking about like how he soaks the boards with piss crying about something Mike Gillis did 11 years ago either. Dude has a massive gut propped up on razor thin stringy legs and a bladder like a gerbil. He does ridiculous amounts of cocaine and drinks until he vomits several times a week. How often does Mrs Dude end up covered in urine while she is trying to have a regular sleep? I’d wager three or four times per week.
