  1. If BUF is seriously going full rebuild, I'd contemplate... 1st (9th) 2021 + LE for Reinhart. Lol.
  2. Latest rumor about RNH I'm reading is that they are working a longer term contract instead of $$. Talks of $5M-ish for 6/7years. That would take RNH to age 34/35yr old.
  3. Wasn't it in 2011 that BOS was in game 7 vs TB? And TB had the best PP in the league at the time and there was 0 PP in the game?
  4. Intriguing trade idea. But I don't think JB would want to not have a 1st round draft pick 2 years in a row.
  5. There's another not often talked about way. It's called having the Refs in your back pocket. Just ask Boston (in 2011) and Vegas. Lol.
  6. If going for Makar, I'd wait to see COL cap situation after signing Landeskog, Saad, and Grubauer. Might be able to get Makar for cheaper and only costing a 1st, 2nd and 3rd. Say $8M / 7yrs.
  7. Nice. I would actually like to draft a goalie in every draft. Preferably not with the 1st round pick though. Keep developing the next bright young goalie. Goalies like Defenceman usually take longer to develop.
  8. Hindsight is 20/20. But I was wanting to sign Toffoli, trade JV, and sign a cheaper backup ($2M Domingue?). Oh well.
  9. I wonder if those proclaiming JV innocence are also those proclaiming Trump's innocence (yeah...had to include Trump ). Kinda similar situations except that after the 1st women came out, so did a whole lot of others. Anyways...I will keep an open mind and hopefully not pre-judge JV too harshly. I have a young daughter and kind of skews my position in this matter. Here's a true story from my friend during high school (17yrs old) years. He was with his girlfriend at the time and pinned her on her bed. She didn't scream or holler but just cried and looked away. Thankfully he stopped and the relationship ended. So just think about that for a minute. Not every girl has the fortitude to kick and scream and fight to the death. They were in a relationship but obviously the girl was not ready for sex. So was she naive for having him in her bedroom? Probably some heavy makeout session was all she wanted but not sex.
  10. This is JB masterplan when he said he'd be aggressive. Lol.
  11. I hope you're right. But JB says they'll be aggressive and make the playoffs next season. It's a cap world and we need a steady influx of good cheap ELC to offset the $$ from our core. Sorta be like TB (without the cap problems) and cycle out non-core good players for high draft picks.
  12. I want MTL to win. It's been so long since the cup was win by a Canadian team. Plus I'd rather not see Vegas win so soon after joining the NHL. Let them experience the heartache and suffering like we did. Lol.
  13. Yep. He was brought in for his rebounding skills. Averages 15 rebounds per game in CHI. Was getting 17 rebound per game years prior to CHI. Insane.
  14. I would say 5%. That's like adding a $4M player. Edit: but then that doesn't really eliminate the problem. It just put a cap on how much you can circumvent the rules.
  15. Or just make it that salary cap extends into the playoffs as well and not just the regular season.
  16. I got it!!!! TO will make a trade with LA. Nylander + Reilly + A prospect + 1st 2022 for Kopitar (50% retained) + Doughty. TO is sure to win the cup next year. And LA can get a jump start to their rebuild. Win win.
  17. Too much of a headache even though he is a franchise center? Kinda like Hodgson situation but Eichel is a top talent. Lol. Don't think Eichel is going anywhere unless it's cheap. No team is going to want to lose at least 1 yr of Eichel (surgery/rehab) on top of a trading premium assets to get him.
  18. From what I read, not much difference in the Tier 2 players. So from 5th to 9th is a mere 4 spots. I think CBJ is desperate for a #1C. They just traded away PLD. So thinking they want a C in this draft. Unless they can net a #1C in free agency or through a Jones trade.
  19. CBJ is forever needing a #1C. I think they'll try to get Beniers. If he's taken, they'll probably go for McTavish (recency bias).
  20. It's a full NTC for the 1st season. M-NTC (7 teams no trade list) on the 2md season. So not entirely bad.
