he probably believe's he's a insider, thats perfectly fine. he may know someone in hockey, and potentially can't speak about the information for one reason or another. I got a lot of crazy stories not many would believe, My Bi-polar personality puts me in some crazy situations.

i know you all think its easy, but being the GM is a lot different than being a armchair. but we can still make fun of him witthout being mean, this photo although photoshopped probably exists on Jims phone somewhere.

Im so, sick of these whiny poor sports, that didn't get their way. Benning and Green are here for another year, so leave your whining for another day. whats your actual purpose on this site anymore? just to torment people trying to move on and get excited for next season? I could care less what you think about Green or Benning. One things for certain some of you are driving people away from this site, all because you constantly need to remind everyone that hell has put Benning/green on this earth to torment us. half of you don't add anything relevant to the conversation, It's just hate upon hate. grow up, dust yourself off and start acting like a respectful forum member

saw these new skates from bauer, i thought of hughes

It's no wonder petey's so fat. all he's eating is fat and carbs and sugar. But he does rock the late 90's look pretty well

well your just wrong, if we retained a little salary you could trade myers, or you could trade pearson probably straight up. we traded gaudette for highmore, we traded jordie benn, someone might want to trade a contract that has a higher cap hit for a smaller one, tampa bay might trade some draft pick for some LTIR contracts to make even more of a mockery of the league. what im also saying is capfriendly has a better idea than you. They predicted the vegas signing of Pietrangelo cap and term within a few hundred thousand.

these videos are fire, im straight mirin this Russian girl, Loli .

These comrades do know how to party, absolutely trashed in half the video. come for the video, stay for the raunchy lyrics.

RE: the OEL trade. Capfriendly suggests OEL value is worth 5.4m*4 so im guessing those 2 extra years are very risky. Capfriendly suggests Schmidts value is worth 4.7m*4 Capfriendly suggests roussels value is worth 1m*1 Capfriendly suggests LE value is worth 785k*1 (likely political reasons why we are not playing him) so OEL adds 8.3m*6 AAV - 5.4*6 =17.4m in negative value(plus the last 2 years may add even more) so schmidt adds 5.9m*4 AAV - 4.7*4 =4.8m in negative value so Roussel adds 3m*1 AAV - 1*1 =2m in negative value so LE adds 6m*a AAV 785k*1 =5.215m in negative value so 17.4 - 4.8 - 2- 5.215 = 5.4m in negative value for the nucks on top of that the canucks will pay 21.3 million dollars more in salary the only way I do this trade is if arizona pays something in return for all the added risk and expected negative value. the 1 year handicap does not make up the difference. I would only do this trade if arizona retained 30% on OEL and we retained 20% on schmidt. it evens out the aav and decreases the salary difference to 9 million. I would add a condition of if we buyout OEL before the 5th year of his contract starts we add a 3rd rounder. a 5.8M aav and 3.85m salary for OEL is much more palpable for years 5 and 6 and could be traded even if his production fell to a 3rd pairing RE:the jones trade I feel this is perfect value Brian elliot signed a 1.5m dollar deal with similar numbers. so his value is roughly around there. .896 sv% is about imo very bottom for a backup, but still nhl calibre. so in reality a team is paying 1.43m above his aav value for 3 years or about 4.5m total. and his actual salary would be about 1.25M*3 above his value. vancouver could possibly trade him again for future considerations @50% retained thats only 1.43m AAV cap hit for 3 years and 1.25m in actual salary. the trade considerations could be based on 2 factors minimum GP And sv%. a 7th rounder for 25 GP And you could make some possibly wild bets on his sv% like min 25GP and .907% for a 3rd/4th. Jim benning just needs to get aggressive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I always thought it was fair and Capfriendly thinks its a steal.

i'm going to disagree that Pearson, Myers, Highmore, MacEwan have negative value. Myers, Pearson, Highmore all had poor starts to the season but finished strong. Capfriendly suggests Pearsons value is worth 3.9m Capfriendly suggests Myers value is worth 5.2m (normal for a older players value to drop throughout the contract.) Capfriendly suggests MacEwans value is worth 870K Capfriendly suggests Highmores value is worth 769K I'm going trust the non biased POV based on analytics over yours's any day.

yes, instead of just dumping the puck, you can create odd man rushes where one of the defenders is a forward. Having one regular pk1 unit of regular 3rd/4th line players and one penalty unit of EP40/Miller and podkolzin/hoglander could increase our scoring and our pk. I'm thinking we will see some major improvements from ep40 next year, wherever he has been focusing in on instead of shooting the puck. could be dangles,or faceoffs maybe passing. as long as his injury is not a lingering thing I think this will only make him a stronger player. it happened for brock

I believe people can change, but if they don't, and next year we are still giving up more scoring chances someone's getting fired.

capfriendly says he is a rfa. he had a bounce back year, i believe LA retains his rights. are you suggesting a trade? is he likely not to be protected?

so you don't think in the last 40 years the growth of hockey has kept up with expansion? I think your big time wrong there. USA,NORDS and even hockey in Canada, Russia and the rest of the world, have all show huge growth in the minor hockey leagues.

it seems we only played agresssively when we played Edmonton although admittingly dont recall looking at if they were playing the passive box or agressive one earlier in the season. Petey/bo and Hoglander/podkolzin could work imo. it seemed that the requirement was one elite pokechecker/skill and another with speed/skill. Come to think of it, With Benning calling out Gaudette and Virtanen, I wonder if their lack of accountability meant that we could never play this system.

Here is a article from Eliteprospects paywall.they mentioned that the reason they are so good on the PK is because they have skilled agressive forecheckers that kill penalties. they all have lines that out score their opponents because of using elite talent. Do you think that Podkolzin and Hoglander can be these aggressive skilled forecheckers? what is a power kill? https://drive.google.com/file/d/18IyQvNgp-MK0V0-Gul-3OwOasFuuppiK/view The value of turning your penalty kill into a power kill We typically centre most of our hockey conversations, effort, and analysis around what happens during the course of 5-on-5 play. Every once in a while, we'll really get wild and shift our attention for a second towards power play formations and execution with the man advantage. As an analyst, I'm certainly guilty of thinking about the sport somewhat myopically through that prism myself. All of which is perfectly understandable, given how much of each game is spent in that state of play. Not to mention the working connection we've established between even strength performance, and future outlook at both the team and individual player level. Something we collectively don't devote nearly enough bandwidth to is the other side of the special teams ledger -- the penalty kill. As the NHL game has evolved and the impetus to create offence wherever possible has followed suit, the way smart teams have gone about maximizing the minutes they're forced to play shorthanded has as well. So let's take a look at the commonalities between the most effective penalty killing combinations, and how teams have gone about unleashing them as, what can only be affectionately coined, a Power Kill™ instead. From a game theory perspective, part of the issue with fully modernizing penalty killing units has been the way in which the defensive nature of those situations plays into the most conservative tendencies of the sport. There's still some that view it as two minutes that you simply need to try to survive, and that the easiest way to do so is by parking traditionally lumbering defensive types in front of your own net so they can gobble up as many oncoming shots as they can before they get to the goalie. But even aside from the lack of ambition that strategy fosters, it's become functionally impossible to get away with it over prolonged stretches. The personnel and game plan of opposing power plays has become significantly more sophisticated, making it more likely that they'll eventually find their way through those types of defensive shells. Shooters have gotten so much better at their craft. The things someone like Auston Matthews can do with their wrister is almost unfair, and if you give him time and space in the offensive zone he will find a way to beat you. But just as importantly, the types of shots the highest level offensive players are now purposefully hunting out has markedly improved as well. It's become more and more commonplace for teams to specifically target areas of the ice where they know the likelihood of scoring is more in their favour. Power plays are moving away from revolving around low percentage point shots, and more towards two areas that have been highlighted as our understanding of the importance of pre-shot movement has crystallized: a) passes coming from behind the net, and b) east-west passes. A team like the Tampa Bay Lightning (when Nikita Kucherov and Steven Stamkos are healthy), for example, is armed with two dual-threat options at both circles, that'll gladly force you into a compromised position if you let them. They're perfectly willing and able to keep moving the puck across the royal road, stretching your penalty killers out until a shooting window finally opens up for one of them to pounce on. So what's the solution, then? Well, there isn't really an ideal one, because eventually talent will win out and find a way. But the most palatable option for an enterprising penalty kill is to fight fire with fire, by using their own most skilled forwards to try and swing the pendulum back in their favour by opportunistically turning defense into offence.

he's 6'5 220 and is 3rd in the league for D-Men that lay the smack down. above average Block shots stats, decent giveaways/60.and has way better PK stats than hamonic thats all I want/need for a 3rd pairing, any points he factors in on is a bonus. Grigorenko only scored so few points because he played so few minutes. he has a 1.64pp/60 and a 11.1%Shooting percentage and excellent hands. Anisimov same story only scored so few points because he played so few minutes. he has a 2.56pp/60 he is a playmaker/dangler. question mark on his health, but at 900k doesn't effect the cap very much. Podkolzin i believe can be the glue that makes this line lethal, and hopefully eat minutes in the offensive zone. together you have a classic proven combo grinder/playmaker/sniper that are all above 6'3 200+lbs another great thing is that grigorenko can play center so when we get the lead motte can get promoted to the third line and old man anisimov can rest.

Hmmmm. whats so stupid about it? it's about as silly as this

SING HIS NAME!!!!!!

how Much?

most of these contracts are taken directly from capfriendly. Hamonic i dropped the aav by 500k because he wants to stay close to home. Hankanpaa I changed from his 4 year offer to his 3 year offer Sutter I changed from his 3 year offer to his 2 year offer.
