What a difference a year makes. That all star game with 5-6 Canucks was more or less the peak for those 2 then their own vanity and weirdness consumed them

Speaking of Craig Coxe and tough guys a little draft blast from the past for y'all.

In 1983 the Red Wings drafted:

Bob Probert 46th o/a
Joey Kocur 88th o/a
Stu Grimson 186th o/a

....the game, she has changed.

Rumours all over 'X' that McJesus is about to re-sign with the oil. It will be a short term deal (2-3 years) with an average salary less than 15 mil per. He is for sure leaving money on the table to try to win that cup.

Apparently two years. That’s their window. $12.5 million. He can’t say he hasn’t given them every chance to build around him.

They have this season and next to win. I can’t see McDavid sticking around if they don’t.

Why do I see a comedown coming?!
Love the Sport. Love the Team.

Hate the League.

Not a fan of him or the oil - but it's nice to see a player give a hometown discount to help the franchise compete. At least they know what their timeline is.

Agreed.

PA probably doesn't like it much but kudos to McDavid for having the gonads and commitment to do it.

And soon the Connor to Toronto in 2 years conversations will ramp up.

That's a shocker.$4.5 per season less than Kaprizov.

This is close to what I predicted (3-4 years with hometown discount) and I also predict he will leave for free at the end of it.

Doesn't make sense to move to a team that is decimated in trying to acquire you, if you want to win the Cup.
