  1. anything short of SJS eating the full cap hit is a joke.
  2. JR/PA are going to have to get aggressive in shedding salary soon, unless something miraculous happens and Dickie suddenly finds his game and Poolman is healthy and performing like a top 4 d.
  3. dunno, not sure he's still that guy anymore. I guess if MTL were willing to retain 50% and take our cap problems and not want a 1st? otherwise I don't see how he's really an upgrade over Garland at this point in his career.
  4. personally I hope he goes back to Russia, but out east would be fine too.
  5. man, why take the risk if you're cowtown tho? nothings free. If he is a room distraction its not worth it. So here's hoping the F'Lames sign him
  6. but why? what role does he fill that we don't already have?
  7. I don't mind this idea if everything is good with him, but worry about his health at this point. Taking Gallagher is doing MTL a favour at this point.
  8. I wasn't going for a complete proposal, just that a 1st would certainly be part of that deal and it might be worth it since he's young and comes with term. AZ's price is likely too high to make it worthwhile, but maybe there's another LHD out there that a team is willing to part with. it would probably be a good idea to see if this current roster can sink or swim on its own this year.
  9. I'm good with it being a young-ish player with term. The pressure to rebuild from the prospect pool isn't nearly as high if you get a good player with term since the spot is filled presumably for years. E.g., our 1st + stuff for Chychrun. That might make sense depending on what else has to go with the pick.
  10. I think that has to be our line in the sand tho, otherwise where is the next player up going to come from? we're not yet ready to get rentals for 1st rounders.
  11. I'm OK with this if the impact d is young (u27) and locked up for good term and cap.
  12. I wonder what it would take... Things might blow up under Torts so who knows, he might be available at the TDL.
  13. maybe we should just pledge something like Seattle did.
  14. this is the big payoff of having OEL-Hughes actually work.
  15. language, mister. Plus it was reported we did make him an offer before the trade. He wanted more. Which is cool, thats his right to try to get it if he can.
  16. it would be nice to see, he's certainly earned it.
  17. Dermott did show flashes of being a solid player in TO, I don't see it as that big a leap that he might put it together enough to be a competent 2nd pairing guy. We need to remember just because the TO media and fans turned on him it doesn't mean he's crap. A lot of former Leafs moved on to bigger and better things.
  18. we made our offer (higher than what he took here) but wanted to move on. So I guess it was Motte didn't really need us. Which is fine, he took a shot at more dough and it didn't work out. Maybe time for a new agent tho.
  19. not sure thats going to happen, but taking an extra game or two from them to keep TO out of the playoffs would be just as sweet.
