OT: Around the League '24-25

[piqued]

I like Guenther but holy hell.

There are two types of contracts: those signed by competitive teams and those signed by noncompetitive teams. And they really have no relationship to each other.

Eichel is somehow even redder before the game

The Stars do barely appear in the trailer but as usual it's only getting scored on/bad things happening as is tradition

New Webster cope just dropped

He's the hero Minnesota deserves, but not the one it needs right now.

I tried looking through that 1K+ post thread and couldn't find what you're talking about. What did the bruins say? I saw the response though:

Neely implied they had offered $64M which of course is red meat to their fanbase and designed to turn Swayman into the bad guy.

I've got that game on October 24th circled. A win is not enough, I want to send that franchise into a rebuild

Neely and Sweeney always came across as dicks

Agreed, Neely especially.

"as" doing a LOT of work here

Bruins don't shit on a player who is on their way out of the organization challenge.
Difficulty: Impossible

If Parssinen gets waived in Nashville we have a chance to do something extremely funny

I like how the Canadian teams preseason is a bare-knuckle bloodbath while the Central teams barely seem to care what's happening

Well Swayman and his agent did a big favour for Otter by holding out and not caving in their demand. 8 x 8.25 for Swayman. That’s probably going to be the floor for an Otter extension.

I'm clearly behind on the times because I always assumed that goalies getting paid $8+ million meant the rest of the team was dogshit and that was their compensation for being the backbone of their team.
