You guys need to get used to those sort of contracts. They're not going away.
Difference between ward and dreger/mckenzie/lebrun? Huge.

Also we made a trade that wasn't laughable for once.
IN NILL WE TRUST

So,
Seguin, 21, second line center, potential top line center
Peverley, 30, depth center
Button, 22, C-level prospect
for
Eriksson, 27, very good top-6 winger
Morrow, 20, A-level prospect
Smith, 22, B-level prospect
Fraser, 23, B-level prospect
Looks pretty great for both teams.

Solo am cry.
Well?
Seguin may have gotten bad press during/after the playoffs, but he still had excellent value and Boston just got a huge return for him.
Lol at that Malkin/Letang contract.

Really fucking frustrating. Sign whoever can get the job done. I don't want year after year of potential but no finish.
Yeah, pretty much. The two secondary prospects probably won't amount to much, but Morrow will most likely be a good NHL player, and at least three years of Eriksson is pretty great, of course.
:-(
Can't wait till the first Lecavalier versus Briere face off.
All 30 teams in the league would love to take Malkin and his contract.
That is the kind of trade that Gillis should have made with Schneider. Chiarelli get every ounce of trade value out of Seguin whereas Gillis put himself in a difficult situation and let himself get reamed from behind.
if the 2y/8m rumors are true... I said i'd take him for cheap, THAT'S NOT CHEAP

Trade from Burins to Dallas will save @tylerseguin92 about $1,020,000 in state taxes over the remaining 5 years on this contract.
Lmao. NO STATE TAXES FTW

Any team with the cap space would take any of these contracts. The best forwards get 8m+ now, and the best defenders and goalies get 7m+.
Holy shit I missed a lot.
Surprised Leafs bought out Grabo but now they have tons of cap space to work with. They'll be fine.
Lol if Briere goes to Montreal. Such a tiny team.
This Seguin trade is nuts. Boston gets a huge return and Dallas gambles its chances on a kid who can't operate a washing machine.

Everyone wants to play for the Leafs. Growing up in _______, they all dreamed of it.
I wouldn't mind seeing Alfredsson sign with the Leafs, if only to watch the meltdown from both sides.
And I hear he's still pretty good.

8m for G does seem pretty high though.... He should be getting 7.5. He's never even been a Hart nom, and he had some really mediocre stretches this year.
I think Cake Boss and the rest of Sens-GAF can agree with me nobody wants to see that.
EVER!
Just thinking about it makes me feel sick.
Alfredsson will sign with the Sens, this is the same stunt that Brodeur pulled with NJ last summer.
It's weird if Montreal wouldn't give a 33 year old five years at 4.5 million, but they will give a soon to be 36 year old coming off his worst season in a decade and a concussion two years at 4 million.

I think he'd sign with Phoenix before he'd sign with the Leafs.
It's true. If you don't give them the money someone else gladly will.
Yeah, Gillis probably should have acquired more assets (even though Horvat will probably be a stud), but the one aspect of that deal that should be most worrisome is that the organization seems to be resigned to Luongo's future cap penalty.
Buying him out might have been embarrassing for Gillis in the short term, but it would have saved the team a lot of headaches down the line.

While Nill wheels and deals Holland:
Has no clue what is going on.
And in other news:
Holland must think we need to restock our old guy quota.
and then the latest :lol Eklund:

He's just the type of reclamation project that McPhee and the Caps will jump all over.
He did but still put up 48 in 48.
I hoped for 7.5 but that would have been a hometown discount and Giroux said fuck that I ain't giving them no discount.
I've been out all day breathing in some America, so I didn't get to see the news on Grabovski until now.
I hated Grabovski and his antics early in his tenure with the Leafs. Then he actually matured and started contributing and I started liking the guy.
It sucks that things didn't work out with him and the Leafs, but that's the business of hockey. He'll be a good asset to another team, KHL or NHL.
Currently on my iPhone, so I don't have my GIFs folder available, so I'll have to settle for:

Absolutely. He's retiring a Sen.

Letang is fair game, but Malkin earned that money.
Well, he's obviously hoping Luongo can keep playing like Brodeur into his 40s. Then there would be no penalty, or it would last just one or two seasons. Meanwhile we'd get Luongo at a very good AAV for many more years. That is, obviously, the absolute best possible outcome.
We'll see how Horvat turns out. But it is definitely exciting to have a player like him coming up.
Chiarelli the genius does it again.

I agree, but I think Giroux has too. 4th highest scorer in the league this decade.
I think settling for 8 would have been a nice gesture to the type of weird fans who care about cap hits down to the last dollar. People like me.

WTF Bruins, you need scorers, seriously... wtf

Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Because Holland is terrible.
Ryan to Detroit is already at an e3?
