  1. We attracted some ufas and also guys took a bit less to play here when we were contending.. Not top tier stars but we did attract some guys.. Raleigh Carolina is a great city to live in hockey players love it there. Imo Vegas is the top destination for players. Low taxes and great city. That team will always be competing. They'll always have guys wanting to sign there.. In Canada particularly when team is not a legit Cup contender we will always have to over pay.
  2. Panarin as well. Huge ufa signing and he wanted to be nyr as well.. Top players with a choice generally don't want to come to Canada. Most guys with NMC/NTC or limited NTC have Canadian teams on their no trade lists. They get to be more anonymous and less fan/media scrutiny in most US cities. Plus the weather is much better in US cities. As someone who's spent a lot of time traveling across Canada and living in Alberta for last 2 years it's understandable. Weather is horrible during hockey season. Who wants to live in EDM CGY EPG OTT over California Carolina NY Florida etc. We attracted UFAs when we were winning in Vancouver. But when team is not that good it's hard attracting top end talent. Draft and trade is only way to build in Canada.
  3. DeAngelo with a monster game for CAR vs his old team the NYR. 1st star of the game. 1g 2assts. Having a great season with Canes. 30 games 31 pts this season. 1 yr 1 million dollar contract. Hands down best contract in nhl after getting kicked off the Rangers and bought out last season.
  4. Ya Fox was coming out of college and refused to sign with Flames or Canes. He was only going to Rangers and nobody else. He's from New York. He was going to be UFA anyways and sign with NYR.
  5. What a save by Freddy Anderson. Trocheck hurt blocking a shot. Good game NYR vs CAR
  6. NYR playing CAR right now. If people haven't seen Rangers kids .. I'll be home in 10 mins going to watch game.. Schneider got called up recently I watched him play 1 game so far. Going to watch him closer today .
  7. Yes. I'd but nothing close to that package. Laff + 3rd line roster player plus a 1st would do it.. Schneider plus Laff plus 1st? Not a chance.. They probably value Schneider more than Laff. Stud 20 year old 6'2 200 lbs RHD.. going to be very difficult to pry him out of NYR I'd do Schneider + 3rd line roster player plus a 2nd.
  8. No way NYR give that package. JR would jump on that like no body's business..
  9. He's expected to be good in 3 to 5 months. It's not for sure. There's a chance he never plays again. Which rugby player are you talking about? I don't watch rugby. I'd like to read about his recovery. The very reason Buffalo refused to let Eichel have this surgery is because of the risk involved. Eichel could never play again. There is no firm timeline. It's wait and see how he progresses.
  10. Canucks thought Gretzky had no intention to play with them. They thought he was going to use Canucks latest offer with NYR and try to get more money from them.. That was the reason they wanted Gretzky to sign their latest and final offer right away. they didn't want their latest offer to be used as a bargaining chip with another team.
  11. Marchand just got buried by Hathaway... lol. Right in the numbers. You got your wish. !!
  12. Solid and clean hit by Wilson. Blidh can't be looking back and down like that.
  13. Isn't eichel a NHL player? Who do you think I'm taking about talking about the Anthem singer st VGK games??
  14. nothing changed.. It's a first time someone is attempting to have this surgery and play .... No one knows the timeline. Except DeNiro.. Even doctors don't know the timeline because its never been done before.. Its a wait amd see how he feels approach. It's thought to be 3 to 5 months. He's still practicing with No contact jersey... The guy just had a disc replaced in his NECK.
  15. Dude just had a disc replaced in his neck with an artificial disc.... Not everything is a conspiracy.
  16. Didn't read past he prefers to be in this situation.. Ya ok. Every player wants their 26 million dollars contract canceled and be under investigation by the NHL amd not have played a single game all season..
  17. Whatever the case. I'm no lawyer. The point I'm making is that this guy is an idiot.. He's currently kicked out of the NHL.. if was cut amd dry they would have announced their findings within a couple of days. After giving fraudulent documents as his vaccine proof how does he not know the Sharks are looking for an excuse to void his contract. $26 million freaking dollars.. Moron.
  18. NHL policy was 10 days isolation. He broke that rule. Canada government policy is can't fly in if tested positive 15 days prior to entering Canada. He broke the 10 day isolation rule for sure. Not sure if allowed to drive into Canada within 15 days if testing positive. He definitely broke that rule too if he flew in. This guy is just stupid. Over and over amd over he does the stupidest things.. He's got am agent. Pays agent over 300k per year just for basic 5% of his salary. Why not call and ask agent or clarify. Especially after just finishing 21 game suspension for giving fake Vaccination paperwork to Sharks.. and getting kicked off the team by his team mates.. Stupid person
