Probably had the wrong assumption. Sounded like he wasn't going to be ready for the beginning of the year. Who really knew what that meant but I kind of assumed he'd miss at least 7-10 games at minimum. Didn't feel like a day to day thing.

I think Lehky skating and participating made it seem like he was close, but they'd said all along he was questionable for the season start, and it being a shoulder and considering how he plays, it needs to be all better so he doesn't have to start over. Shoulders are a bit like ankles, once you mess one up it can be trouble forever.
No it won’t be more than nine unless he absolutely kills it. They’re not going to let that ELC kick in this year.
We’ll see what happens with MacKinnon. The good news is that this year at least they’re starting the season with an actual second-line center. He won’t have shit for wingers but he’s a definite upgrade over Ryan NoChancin’.

I am, but he turns 29 this year. That contract takes him to 38 and we know these Russian goalies for the most part are athletic freaks. If that fades, oh boy.
I also don't know if he can play any better than he did last season and they still couldn't make the SCF

I think the argument is no matter how good the goalie is, they aren’t worth it. I slightly disagree… but I get the thought.
Or this and Im idiot.

“No concern about it going into the season; these are not easy deals to do,” general manager Chris MacFarland said Tuesday. “The player obviously has the UFA right to go, and the club has to make smart decisions, both for the short term and the long term.”
“We’ve got a few other UFAs, I think, as well. So, I can assure you of one thing, my phone's always on, and I know Mikko's representation's phone’s always on. So, that's as much as I can say on it.”
So godam f***ing close!!!!

Personally I believe there's a decent chance he walks and the Avs will use that cap space in more useful way...(Marner

What if I told you he will sign for less money overall than a winger who can't drive his own line, falls down a lot, and has had issues regarding level of effort for the past two seasons?

Problem is someone has got to give us something other than another boat anchor in deal. Otherwise, just stick with the dog you know even if he is shitting in your bed. We won a championship with this dog. Let's see if he can actually get some help.
There are days, where I am no where near as Zen about it. Like during the playoffs. When news broke. Saying Nuke had chosen a snort of coke over trying to compete for a champagne from Stanley's cup.
