You expect me to get water from the sink like some kind of animal?
Yes.
is there a problem with that?

Meta, hope your dad pulls through
RC, could I have some water?
I don't approve of this.
surely he would wash the cup first?
right?
?_?

Didn't one of Howard Stern's people shit in that?

Meta stats for his dad: the year his Dad will kick cancers ass is 2015, last time a Ranger kicked cancers ass?
2008, the year they traded Sean Avery.
Stay strong Meta, you guys got this.
I'm not a fan of anywhere during the summer.
My baby mama just told me one of her goals is to make sure our son is a Ducks fan.
That bitch.
We could have had Avery back if it wasn't for AV, too!
Thanks for the support, guys. Thankfully I've had way too much to do lately and I'm pretty divorced from the situation being in NY rather than Florida, so I haven't really had time to think about it. Hopefully his biopsy results will turn out alright.
Good lord.
Have you alerted CPS?
haha apparently Winnik's contract was rejected by the league for being too frontloaded
the Leafs were trying to make him a reeeaaaaallly appealing trade chip who would be owed like almost no money after being dealt. didn't fly.
I haven't really posted in here in a few days, so this is going to be a pretty serious good news/bad news post.
Good news: I was wrong about Buffalo's stupid ROR contract fucking over the Rangers. Turns out that because O'Reilly would have been a UFA in 2016, it is considered a signing by an unrestricted free agent per the current CBA and is thus inadmissible as a comparable in an RFA's arbitration hearing. So fuck you, Buffalo!
Good news: I'm moving to Brooklyn! Like as soon as next week! Walking distance to Barclays for Isles-Rangers games! Woo!
Bad news: My dad has cancer.
Well that brought that post to a screeching halt, huh? That's life for ya.
They think it's completely treatable and possibly outright curable, so the prognosis is, relatively speaking, very good. Should know more in the next day or two exactly what the course of action will be going forward. In case you were wondering.
Does Buffalo make the playoffs this year? Y/N
I'm going with no, but I could see them making the conference finals while Reinhart/Eichel are still on their ELC contracts.

Meta, Chewie, my thoughts and prayers are with you guys and your families.
This past week my dad's health went right into the shitter. Emerg last Wednesday with internal bleeding. There overnight, then home for 2 days, and then rushed back on Sunday with crippling abdominal pain. Turns out he had infection and perforation in his guts somewhere. Couple surgeries done (took some of hus colon and intestines out) and another tomorrow to determine what caused the internal bleeding.
Hardest part for me was seeing him fine one day, and all hooked up and feeble the next. And seeing how worried my mum was.
Hug and cherish your loved ones!

Seems like a bad time for NHLGaf's families. I've been at the icu nearly every day for over a month visiting a relative. He went in for surgery and then developed pneumonia. He also went into code blue while I was there which was just awful. There were 6 nurses and 2 doctors in his room. I thought he was going to die. He's recovering, but it's been slow.

DETAIL: Daniel Winnik's original contract was rejected for being too frontloaded. Confirmed at $2.7M/$1.8M, same AAV
I guess no one in the Leafs front office understood the 35% variance rule for frontloaded deals.
Original contract was $3m and $1.5m -> 50% variance
New contract is $2.7m and $1.8m - > 33% variance
They need some D and Lehner is still kinda unproven, also has a temper.
I think they'll be 11-13 in the East
I think there are 3 distinct tiers of teams outside of the guaranteed playoff teams (Tampa/Montreal/NYR/WSH):
Tier 1 (Playoff tweener): Detroit, Columbus, Boston, Islanders, Pittsburgh, Ottawa
Tier 2 (Middle of nowhere): Carolina, Philly, Buffalo
Tier 3 (crap): New Jersey, Toronto
Actually, I have no idea what to think of Ottawa, so confusing!
Well, grats for the first part. Heights? Nice area. Really reminds me of the Village, where I grew up. Love that style. Trees and brownstones basically, lol. Mind if I ask whether you bought or are renting?
And I hope all goes well for your father. I wish him luck, but mostly I just hope it was caught pretty early and that it's taken care of quickly.
Hope your dad is okay.
