Auston Matthews - $13.25 @ 4 UFA
William Nylander - $11.50 @ 8 UFA
John Tavares - $11.00 @ 2 UFA
Mitch Marner - $10.90 @ 2 UFA

yikes dude, this team will never win a cup with contracts like that.

Tavares will sign a league Minimum 700k deal then they will be fine.

Agree0 Disagree0

10 Jan 2024 15:10:23
Tavares could sign a Giroux / Pavelski deal easily. So he’s gonna leave 20M off the table?

Agree1 Disagree0

12 Jan 2024 01:44:09
Nylander might end up being similar to the Nurse contract.

Agree2 Disagree0

02 Mar 2024 17:45:02
After Tavares and Marner contracts are up I suspect Marner gets in the $12mill range and Tavares is let go unless he take a nice Jason Spezza like deal.

Agree0 Disagree0

13 Mar 2024 00:22:16
The exact opposite will happen @mg69.

Mr. Steve yzerman would like an upgrade in net and has picks to dangle for a curtain Russian net minder with Stanley cup rings. Do Not be surprised if Detroit & Tampa get together.
Husso, Raymond & Picks
And dont be Surprised if an unhappy Captain is included.

NotACasual if he is better, and I'm NOT saying he is, nor am I saying Chabot is better, they are arguably the same tier. Seider may have a very slight edge if that, that doesn't mean this ain't a great trade for both teams.

Chabot may be roughly 4 years older but he's on a long term 8 million dollar contract to Seiders 10.5 million dollar contract so the age and ever so slight edge are easily countered out by the size of the contract being better on Chabot end. And adding the 2nd and Sokolov (a prospect Detroit is already known to like) provides a sweetener for Detroit. Plus it helps Ottawa by moving 1 of 3 Top 2 LHD so they can bring in a natural Top 2 RHD so they don't need to keep playing 1 of those guys on their off side or 3rd pair. And it helps Detroit by getting them a near equal caliber Top 2 LHD and allows them to use Edvinson on the Top 2 Pair where he belong when he's finally brought in rather than relegating him to play 2nd fiddle to Seider or on his off side.

That's the whole point to deals like these. And it's not like the season is going the way either team thought it would so far, so maybe a drastic change for both teams like this could be the shake up they both need to level out their lopsided bluelines.

Having a top pairing caliber D playing on the 2nd pair isn’t the problem you make it seem.

Canucks fans are just torching the flames page rn lmaoo absolutely fleeced, apparently all the teams wanted the Flames to retain salary except the Canucks so Conroy took that deal.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

01 Dec 2023 01:40:26
Can’t wait for the Flames to only get a 2nd and abruzzese for Tanev (50% Retained)

Agree0 Disagree0

Dude go google what pending UFAs normally get.

@VBB I get that but he’s only 28 and went to a division rival. just odd

Agree0 Disagree0

01 Dec 2023 22:36:33
@VBB Darren Dreger mentioned that the teams around the league even thought the return was a little light which is a huge yikes for Conroy.

Agree0 Disagree0

02 Dec 2023 01:49:03
Zadarov is not good man. Tanev will get a 2nd and a 3rd and Hanfin will get a 1st.

Agree0 Disagree1

01 Dec 2023 01:02:17
Conroy is getting torched by the entire fanbase, wtf kinda return is that? he fumbled his first two trades bad

Making a top 10 since 1990.. this will take Gretzky out of it I believe. Best ever.... but 90s, he was a regular Superstar., not the Great One, but still awesome.. might make the list.

1. Mario Lemuiex
2. Connor McDavid
3. Sidney Crosby
4. Jaromir Jagr
5. Alex Ovechkin
6. Joe Sakic
7. Dominik Hasek
8. Wayne Gretzky
9. Nicklas Lidstrom
10. Peter Forsberg

Obviously lots of great players in these 33 year.. I dont have Roy,Kane, Thornton , Bouquet ect.. on this list.. im sure I'm missing someone.

I can't argue with that list VB.
Only comment ill make is. Gretzky, although the greatest, wasn't the same as he was in the 80s.
But good list!

Agree0 Disagree0

28 Nov 2023 14:29:44
Gretzkys last game was 2 years before I was born. However looking at he’s seasons in LA to me his pedigree mixed with his performance makes him the greatest. I feel like in 1995 if you wanted one player for a cup run it’d be Gretzky and for me today crosby would be the guy I’d want.

Agree0 Disagree0

28 Nov 2023 19:56:43
I was lucky enough to catch most of Gretzkys career, and in the 80s, there was nothing even comparable to what he did. Mario was closest to dominate the way he did. It was deffenitley a different era, but we will never see a player dominate like he did. I found after his Cup run in 93, he went from being the Great one, to a really good, but aging one! . that's why I don't give him number 1 spot from 90 to now. bit if this was All-time. its 99 all the way for me.

Agree0 Disagree0

01 Dec 2023 08:33:43
In Gretzky's final 10 seasons he was over a point a game every year except for his last, including 4 seasons of atleast 122 points. numbers joe Sakic never saw once in his 20 year career.

Agree0 Disagree0

. don't nickel and dime the great one lol.

Just watched some highlights.. and seen Dillon feeding fists to Reinhart.. so one is 6'5, a meh Dman, nothing special. the other a 6'1 skinny offensive player. Now Reinhart isn't a superstar, but a good offensive player., not one guy from his team went to help him . This is what is wrong in the game today. Back when hockey was a physical sport,no way would a big Giant like Dillon be able to take on a scorer like Reinhart. Reinhart is also the leading scorer of the team. FLorida did nothing. Pretty sad.

What happened to Matt Dumba? Only 30 and went from a top 4 guy to the absolute worst player in the NHL? I don't even think he'd be good the AHL at this point.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

24 Nov 2023 23:02:19
Is he really that bad? I honestly haven't seen alot of him. I do remember not so long ago, he was a really good 2 way Dman, capable of highlight reel body checks here and there. How has his game regressed? He can't be worse than Klingberg?

Agree0 Disagree0

25 Nov 2023 21:46:55
Klingberg can QB a PP and put up the odd 5 on 5 point at times. Dumba skates like he has cinder blocks on his feet is awful in his own end and stoped producing offence.

Jarnkrok 2.1 Liligrin 1.4 and 1st and 2nd for Xhekaj 0.9 and Monahan 1.985.

Believable0 Unbelievable2

04 Nov 2023 20:38:12
Switch Lilijgren out with someone else like Timmons or a prospect, and I’d do it.

Agree1 Disagree0

04 Nov 2023 23:19:12
There is no way that Hughes would trade Xhekaj away to the Leafs.

Agree3 Disagree0

07 Nov 2023 00:31:01
I agree.

Agree0 Disagree0

31 Oct 2023 03:36:37
