Hey Toronto already supports roughly a bajillion minor hockey teams, I'm sure they can handle 30 NHL teams!
You'd always have an excuse to get out of doing things you don't want to do though. "Man, I'd love to help you move but i'm Pretty Tied Up watching 14 Toronto NHL games today."

I for one can't wait till Boulder gets a team. The Boulder Stains. Logo is a greasy old hippie with the longest gray ponytail you've ever seen.
Once you get to Boulder you know you've Scraped the bottom of the barrel for cities to put teams in.

The arena wouldn't need a parking lot tho. Just infinite bike racks and vape friendly zones as far as the eye can see.

Seattle has the population and corporate presence to be a very successful franchise for the league. It's blatantly a more appealing market than Quebec could ever be.
I feel for Quebec, but I can't see another Winnieg happening.
Put a food coop or two next to those and you've got a Garden of Eden for hippies everywhere.
A team isn't going to Move to the City without an arena plan ready though.
I can't look at Marvie's avatar anymore

They can play in one of those rinks they temporarily build inside malls meanwhile

Alternatively: The Boulder Drop Outs, The Boulder Trust Funds.
If they Half Fast Subs in concessions I'd be set for life.
I'm just gonna go out and drink or something.
When I get back, I expect nothing of great significance to happen in terms of signings, because the FA list fucking sucks.
I'll get sick of it soon enough. Have some Patience.
The AHL call-ups are like Free Agent acquisitions!
Yep, disappointment incoming. Although this is from one of those 4th period chimps, so I guess it is a good reverse jinx.
This is the best idea

Friedman is on the radio right now and says the story doesn't make sense and he doesn't buy it
I feel like every July 1st there is some talk of the red wings being interested in a few UFAs, but they never sign there except for like, Stephen Weiss.

Watch for this one
I might actually feel bad for Oshie. Playing for Edmonton has got to be like living Right Next Door to Hell

Ken Holland, content with being mediocre. Holland is too laid back and never wants to make an aggressive good trade or sign an FA unless they fall into his lap.

Denver media doesn't know what to be excited about. Sekera or bust! I wouldn't mind Oduya in addition though.

I don't think I'll be dissappointed if we Sign Frolik.
Just don't sign Belesky and we should be okay
Please don't sign Belesky MB..
Plinko
Wildcard berths that can't beat teams without a winning record should have homefield advantage
Most overrated GM in the league. He has absolutely sucked in the cap era.

I actually wouldn't mind Semin on a one year cheap deal and put him with Datsyuk. Then trade some of our excess forwards for a couple picks or something. I mean, I know some of our extras can net us some picks when you look at who has been traded for what over the last year. Holland just refuses to trade roster players half the time.
He has literally been, "stay the course" type of GM, and refuses to really try at times to cut fat or go all in to get a FA he knows will be extremely beneficial, or even make a good trade.

Enjoy him. Oduya's playoff beard is So Fine. Not like you'll get to see it though.

Thanks Quick. I'll dedicate a Rum and Coke to you guys getting rid of Bozak
If you look at the trades that have happened this past week, I wouldn't be surprised if the Wings end up getting a ton of 1st round picks.
Then they'll have Cleary re-sign.

If we played Chicago 82 times a year we would. *Shakes fist*
Exactly. There Was a Time where he was able to fool everyone. Too bad for you guys there's a cap now and you're stuck with him.
My body would Breakdown by December from all the salt directed towards Patrick Roy if this happened.

And Dallas. We'd have a perfect season then.

You know Cleary is a Red Wing until he's Dust N Bones. I mean, he's pretty close to that but there's probably a few years before that at least.
Eat shit.
:lol
Holland's hashtags are
#toomuchmoney #toomuchterm
He'll "kick the tires" on Mike Green. But of course won't offer the perfect D man you need RIGHT NOW anything over 6 mil or longer than 3 years probably. You know how you free up some money if you REALLY need it? Trade Kindl or Ericsson for some picks. Those guys aren't gonna get any better and will not be missed. We have plenty of other D in the system ready to go.

On to a more serious note though....What do you all have in terms of Free Agent Frenzy snacks? I have seven frozen pizzas, five bags of chips (all variations of Doritos of course), seven gallons of mountain dew and a bag of pistachios because I'm healthy. #FreeAgentFoodFrenzy2015

My friend just posted a picture of him and Kessel in Vegas.
Was everyone else in the buffet line pissed he was holding them up?
