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.

The latter is def true because of how many players all go on waivers at once early in the season. It still wouldn't shock me if he would get picked up by another rebuilding team, like how the laffs picked Corrado off waivers from Vancouver late last year.

But then again maybe I'm a bit biased since Percy is probably my second favorite D prospect. He plays a game that fits the NHL well, but he needs to stay healthy

why sign for 8.5 when Toronto has a 12M contract already prepared for you?

outside of the fact that the medias will drive you insane over there

12M? Hah yeah right, as if the leafs will have that kind of cap space.

 

[Socreges]

What does "too low" even mean? Zero is right - this is the nature of negotiations.

[Razorskin]

Can't wait to claim Percy!

He will overcome.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

Habs should send Carr back down.

 

[MultiJhonny]

Swedish Caps fans have both game snowed out

This sucks coming all the way from Sweden to see your favorite team play and you can't see either game you have tickets too.

Parenteau frees up 4M right? just buyout horton and gardiner and phaneuf and you'll be fine

No.

Well, he's 7 games before. And plans to return for the playoffs. He'll be OK. Dude is pretty hardcore, though.

No.

Horton doesn't count against the cap since he's on LTIR...legit LTIR not Robidas LTIR

wut

gotta do what you gotta do to get the Stamcock!

PAP makes 1.5mil and Gardiner is underpaid tho

 

[zroid]

This is pretty damn cool

 

[imBask]

PAP makes 1.5mil and Gardiner is underpaid tho

Rotoworld says 4M for PAP but that doesn't make any sens, 1.5 sounds right

anyway the point is : you guys are signing him to a ridiculous deal, there's no getting out of it

Not with Loophole Lou around we're not.

 

[Socreges]

If you're signing him to anything, it will be ridiculous.

 

[Samyy]

I don't even want Stamkos dammit
Tavares tho....

 

[Quick]

Not with Loophole Lou around we're not.

LL: "Stamkos, why must you disrespect me with this contract offer? I offer you a chance to play for your home team, and you spit in my face with a $12 million AAV counter offer?"

Stamkos:"Lou, it's just business."

LL: "Tell you what: I'll offer you $5 million, and we'll work out some other details to earn you more, if you wanna just step inside this freezer with me..."

*20 minutes later*

LL: "So, that'll be $3 million a year, and you get to see your family again."

 

[Kuro Madoushi]

9.1 million in Toronto is definitely more than 9.1 million in Tampa with the extra money he can make here. He'd instantly be the face of the franchise and likely be the most popular and I wouldn't be surprised to see him plastered all over.

Maybe the leafs play so well next year that we can ttrick someone into taking pphaneuf and lupul

Taxes are a lot less in Tampa though.

London vs Sarnia starting soon, should be fun

Marner + Tkachuk vs Bustnecny + Chychrun

Konecny will get more points than Marner this game.

Oh yeah taxes, the finger thing means the taxes!

 

[CosmicQueso]

Sign for huge $ in Canada, way over previous market value because of currency and tax.

Wait for Canadian dollar to rebound once the oil supplies are constrained again.

Profit.

How would he profit then? They get paid in USD. He would lose money when Canadian dollar rebounded back to parity.

McIlrath still scratched. What exactly does Boyle (you know, the guy who has played something like 24 straight games who we were supposed to be having take frequent rests) have to do to be taken out of the lineup if quitting on a play that leads to a goal doesn't do it?


Also:
Staring Contest with Henrik Lundqvist


EDIT: Oh, ok, this explains it. This will be Dan Boyle's final regular season game in his hometown of Ottawa, given that he's mentioned retiring after this season numerous times. Alright, I'll let this one slide, AV.

 

[zroid]

Brown's playing on Freddie the Goat's wing to start

edit: Brown scored on his 2nd shift!! <33

 

[zroid]

Brown scored again and it's 4-0 :lol

Utica changed goalies

edit: apparently Percy took a head shot and he's slow to get up :\ fuck

 

[imBask]

could you imagine a Stamkos goal IN FOUR K ?

 

[MetatronM]

Karlsson just lit up Kevin Hayes. Helmet ended up in some other zone.

 

[MultiJhonny]

could you imagine a Stamkos goal IN FOUR K ?

Bruh... You just blew my mind.

 

[MetatronM]

All Senators in this period until the last 3 minutes when the Rangers got a power play and started getting going. Had been a pretty dominating performance by Ottawa up to that point.

Still 0-0, though.

 

[MetatronM]

Kevin Hayes just completely whiffed on a wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open net.

 

[zroid]

I'm not sure what happened, but got damn this London/Sarnia game got out of hand. Players are brawling all over the ice and they're so salty that some are punching the referees standing between them.

 

[Yawnier]

God damn the marlies are demolishing the comets. 6-0

Second period was much better for the Rangers, but they give up a messy goal to Bobby Ryan with under 20 seconds to go.

The Marlies are silly good this year, I really need to make the trip up to catch a game.

 

[MultiJhonny]

Lucic got a game for the punch on Connauton

 

[MetatronM]

Tanner Glass just whiffed on an open net at one end, and Hoffman goes right down the ice and scores.

 

[Marvie_3]

Kevin Hayes just completely whiffed on a wiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide open net.

We'll take him back

 

[MetatronM]

This game has been so easy for Anderson.


EDIT: Pageau won't get many easier shorthanded goals than that one. That puts this one away.

Marvie, this is the gif to use if anyone questions your car.
