Is the third image broken because Matthews refuses to play for the Minnesota Wild?

It's my birthday today. So Ducks winning was pretty cool.
Tomorrow it will be Marvie's birthday like it is everyday

Rantanen with a hat trick tonight, I'm glad they're taking his development slower than other prospects.

They should fold the Oilers and call it good.

Oh really it's broken?
It works on my comp and phone. It's just a pair of hands making a heart.

It's actually broken, I thought there was a possibility you were making a joke.

Anyone have an idea where to get a jersey online? Ice Jerseys lacks stock for the Avs alternate. NHL.com has the shitty ironed on numbers. Also I really want to get a Barrie jersey, but I'm worried about negotiations this summer, mostly because every time I get a jersey the player leaves, my last two jerseys were Anderson and Stastny.

I'm sure the negotiations will be fine.
Unless he has Subban's agent, then you're fucked.

Watching the replay of the Preds-Oilers game. LOL that second goal by Ekholm.
Wait, they were playing Ribeiro as the 1st line LW? wut

It's weird, I've never seen you make a post about one of those teams. The opposite of 'love' isn't 'hate', Erdrick, it's 'indifference'.
Connor Brown is back!
Sweeeet, I need to go to another Marlies game when Nylander comes back to see what a healthy Marie's team could do :0
Connor Brown is back!
Imo, he could have challenged for a NHL spot after the TDL if he didn't get hurt and was out for almost 3 months. He was our best forward prospect in training camp and pre season, after Snizzbone of course.
I guess we'll see

I mean we could lose every single game left this year and the Thrashers would still have to win several to catch up. Come on man. You don't need to take on the world you just need to be bitter about the Thrashers sucking ass. Blame where blame is due.

Report: Stamkos now has offer from Lightning
I saw another one saying it is for 8 years. I feel like that is pretty damn low offer.
8.5 AAV? I feel like he could get a lot more in FA

I think both Stuart Percy and Scott Harrington will be waiver-eligible next year
if Zaitsev signs, Leafs D corps for 2016-17 projects as:
Hunwick-Rielly
Gardiner-Phaneuf
Marincin-Harrington
Corrado
Percy
Zaitsev
Robidas (lol)
obviously some decisions to make...
I think Percy MIGHT squeak through waivers, but he's a former 1st rd pick, it's likely someone would claim him. I like Marincin and think he deserves a bigger role, but it doesn't really look like the organization agrees. He's probably gone.
Even though Zaitsev is supposedly NHL-ready, he might get sent down just because he'll be waiver exempt. But I have a feeling there's an understanding between him and the org that he'll start in the NHL. That's probably why he's planning to sign with us in the first place.

They're trying to get that "hometown" discount.
damn that's a lowball for sure
he won't accept that
I think Yzerman is betting on him getting around 7x10M elsewhere, which is about the same total value as 8x8.5M. But he would still opt for free agency in this case.
When will non wigged, non moustached Kave be back?
We need to get rid of Hunwick D: fuckkkkkk

I think Stamkos could easily get 12 though. Probably overpaying but maybe not since he still is only 25. But I just don't see him staying in Tampa.
Yeah that's probably true. Although i'm still shocked Granberg was claimed :lol
Granberg though was sent down mid-season which is a little more risky than in pre-season when everybody is still trying to figure out their rosters. Percy may have a chance to slip through just because he has so little NHL experience. Any team that claims him would be taking a flier.

This is how contract negotiations work. Stamkos asks for more than he's worth, and Yzerman offers what he's actually worth. They meet somewhere in the middle.

Not at all. That is exactly how much Stamkos is actually worth based on his play, and is a reasonable offer. Of course it won't be accepted, but you HAVE to start that low, or else "the middle" where they end up meeting is raised higher.
Yep, Negotiations 101 basically. One side lowballs, the other makes a high counter offer.
Stamkos knows he's going to get more through Free Agency, but he's probably hoping the Lightning play along and win the game.

True. I guess where I feel that it is too low, even though I have nothing to base this off, is that there is easily an 11-12 AAV waiting for him in FA.
