  1. Over a point per game average since he came here 3 years ago. Better than any other roster player. He's earned it and will be fine.
  2. Not a complaint. Just an (obvious) observation. The difference between Benning's and Allvin's spending is that Benning way overspent on players. If Allvin's done that I must have missed it?
  3. 2 years? I've been a member of this forum for about 20 years, and have been a fan since 1980... if you're counting. Those guys are all pulling their weight, relative to what they're making. A good chunk of our defense is definitely not. Unfortunately. OEL is making over $10M USD this year. Could you imagine if he actually was the #1 top D man he was getting paid to be? That in itself would make a massive difference right now.
  4. Agreed. You can copy the vibe of that era but it's just not quite the same. I had a similar reaction the first time I watched The Shining when I was a kid. Creepy!
  5. He IS an NHL player, whereas some of these other guys aren't. No disrespect to Juulson. I'm a fan of Wolanin though. Maybe he gets another looksee sometime this year.
  6. shoulda coulda woulda? The team's literally capped out. And the reason why is that WAY too much $ was thrown at guys who are really, just average players. The retirement thing was in jest... and had I known people in here were that wound up over all of this, maybe I wouldn't have said something like that. Like I said earlier, we just need a win. Either that, or a good old fashioned orgy in here to (cough) loosen people up a bit.
  7. You have to have the ability to do it, before you start looking at names. Hence my comment on the $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
  8. Looks like Mikheylev and Myers are in tonight. I wish we had Tyler's brother Michael in the lineup
  9. Daniel Wagner doesn't need Halloween as an excuse to hit the water bong and liquor cabinet.
  10. The one that needs them . Horvat may be the first to go, but that shouldn't be all that surprising with Rutherford's "culture" comments along with him saying "we may have to make some non-emotional decisions" (with regards to the roster) and then, re-signing Miller.
  11. we need to win a game just so people in here stop getting pissy with each other.
  12. 16M is very little? It's almost 20% of the cap. Now take into consideration the fact that Allvin's hands are tied, why? No. Cap. Space.
  13. Not when you take the bag of gold they're paying OEL to be "average", and go spend it on some real help. Which was my point.
  14. Boeser's not a great passer, and doesn't drive play. He's a goal scorer. Period. If he's not scoring, he's not doing his job. A few assists doesn't change that, and I'm sure if you asked him he'd tell you the same thing.
  15. It was said in jest. sort of. Imagine having $16 Million off your cap to go hunting for real help on the back end. Or not... which is where we are now.
  16. Those 2 guys make $16 Million. That kind of cap space gives you a LOT of options.
  17. Those are token assists, however. He's looked almost invisible out there, but that's what you get with a lot of players that profile like him. - if they aren't scoring goals they aren't doing much of anything. And he's definitely getting paid to score goals not anything else. Hence his own words "this is the year for me. I have to score 30".
  18. Allvin to Myers, and OEL: "I'll pay you each your full salary under the table if you retire"
  19. I once got suspended for posting the image of Justin Trudeau posing with that topless chick at the pride/slut march. (whatever) It was deemed "obscene" . It's a good day when you can pull one over on them!
