Around the League 46: Sharks Finally Yank A Win Out Of Their Cloaca

[baconandbread]

Getting out of one be bad contract can be done relatively easy. However getting out of multiple bad contracts when you have young RFA defenseman the next two years seems like not a good idea. Couldn't have happened to a better team hahaha

See? Kotkaniemi at $4.82M doesn’t seem so bad when the Rangers are paying their 3C $8.5M for another 5 years.

In general, locking up our young core before the cap hike is a massive win. Always had a soft spot for Koko especially; and I'm hoping this stretch means he's turning the corner.

Too bad they're playing Dallas..a Petey hattrick would be funny

 

[robbieberns]

Contract issue not as big of a deal with the cap rising next few years, NYR more beneficial of that than any other team in the league excluding the Leafs maybe.

 

[Stickpucker]

Hopefully he has a bad attitude and derails the rags even more.

Then proceeds to Get Lafrenierre to demand a trade.

So yeah, I'm glad someone else is taking on Miller. I would have welcomed him but he isn't a game-changer for this team.

 

[Svechhammer]

If you asked me who I would rather have, it's Rantanen 10 times out of 10

Necas checks in with a goal in his first home game as well.

I really think he’s gonna be a 100pt+ player in Colorado. Necas is going to command $13-14M too

He's a good fit there. He probably has a chance to be more consistent with his production in that system, especially if he stays with Mack. Much like when Lindholm exploded for a while elsewhere, I don't think we were going to consistently get that dude here, so no worries (plus I'm an Avs fan too!). I also had a hard time believing things ended with him getting a long term contract here and you may be right that's what the Avs end up looking at with him and the cap rising.

So nice to see him flying free out there. It's like when your parents tell you your dog has gone to a beautiful, faraway farm where he can run free in a giant field--but it's actually true!

Yeah, I think both teams could not be happier with what they got. Necas is such a great fit with MacKinnon/Makar-types of speedster and an all-world offense.

Lovely way to state it. Hope he enjoys his time there however long it shall be.

Nykki bought GiGi a winter coat for the move. I worry most for the puppy.
