31 Farts.

Obviously GMs with extra players on 1-way contracts are offering them up around the league.

They owe it to the players and the owner.

Also Jimmy basically alluded to this the other day...

I am not sure ole chef is entirely accurate with this statement...




Teams trying to move bodies include Carolina and Vancouver
.

True statement.
Both are tight to the cap and roster limits.

True statement.
The Canucks have made four or five players available, but I’m not sure Jake Virtanen is one of them.
opinion, not stated as fact.
Head coach Travis Green was frustrated with Nikolay Goldobin last season, but GM Jim Benning opted for a longer view.

true statement.
Could be the same here.
Opinion.
Calgary may have to manoeuvre something once Matthew Tkachuk is signed.
True statement.


"Compulsive" might not be the adjective your looking for.

I wonder what TB and Colorado will do...both of these free agents are critical pieces on the top lines of contenders. Lapointe was critical in feeding Kucherov those 128 points same goes for Rantanen with McKinnon. Both want huge coin in line with Bitch Marner. What the fuck can they do?

Calgary and Winnipeg arent legit contenders IMO.

Both Point and Rantanen will sign 3-year deals at around $8M-per, book it!

Avs are apparently trying to sign him long @ 8.4-8.75 and are telling him hes not getting Marners dumbass payday. They have an eye on next summer where they have 6 RFAs coming up for new deals and a Marner sized hit would absolutely destroy their future...much like it did for the laughs

One day soon we'll all be laughing at Tuna when hes posthumously blaming the long departed dumbass for all his problems

LeBrun:
Lightning have re-signed Brayden Point to a three-year deal paying $6.75 M AAV. The Lightning came up more than a million a year from their last offer.
Well SL you got the 3 years right!
Can the Canucks just win a Cup within the next 5 years.

That’s a nice contract for the Lightning. You also have to take taxes into consideration wren comparing it to Boeser’s contract. It’s probably closer to 7.5 or 8 million per year.
