  1. 3 million on a 1 year for the best backup on the market? Why wouldn't he do that? Benning has made some questionable UFA signings in the past but this was not one of them.
  2. That's the only way you can sign one of the top backups in the league for one year at age 36. No way the deal gets done so cheap without that clause.
  3. Silver lining... If we traded him at the deadline the bonus' would be on us and he would be worth a bunch at a 1.5mil cap hit. Backups have never been more valuable and his track record as one is stellar.
  4. I could see us trading him if we start to nose dive (and he agreed to waive) but that's no time soon. Unless of course he is unhappy getting so few games. In that case I would be OK as long as we get a good backup + 3 million for one of the top backups in the league is a great deal. We'll worth it in this covid landscape. Imagine demko gets covid and is out for a week when our schedule is packed. There goes the good times and new found confidence, with Halak we would have a fighting chance.
  5. I do agree that there were better players on waivers under Benning's watch and that's on him. I'm curious as to who these 2 "better" players that we waived are? Only 2 I saw were big Mac who has 2 points and is a -9. The other one is Gadjovich who has 2 points and is a -7. Chiasson has triple the points and a much better +/- than either of them (6 points and -3). Yes Chiasson is a plug, but don't fool yourself into thinking those 2 other plugs are superior. They were waived and are in tough to hang onto roster spots with poor teams for a reason. If it weren't for their ability to fight I couldn't see either one on an NHL roster right now and from what I've seen from this team since Bruce has taken over we aren't in need of a goon.
  6. Clutterbuck makes 4.66 times the salary Czikas makes 3.33 times the salary Martin makes 2 times the salary
  7. 6th place... but still quite the feat. What's really crazy is that he put up 92 points in the WHL during his draft year
  8. McAvoy is far from a cap dump. A spare part like Debrusk would do just fine along with the prospect/draft pick haul.
  9. The only time juolevi looked like a star in training camp was his starfish impression.
  10. Demko channeling his inner Kirk McLean this morning at practice.
  11. You didn't really just make that comparison did you?
  12. Yeah 29 goals in 62 games isn't even close to as good as 30 goals in 82 games.
  13. The thing is there hasn't been a 82 game season in 3 years. He missed a combined 3 games in the past 2 years. 28 over the last 4.
  14. Per 82 nhl games... Boeser 31 GPG 66PPG As for Rasmussen hitting the 70 point plateau? Never.... not even in junior. Merry Christmas
  15. A 8 goal 20 point player for a 30 goal 70 point player?
  16. This makes Garlands contact look as good as MacKinnon's.
