Around the NHL 11 - 2023/24

NYR are essentially stuck with a guy they no longer want.
Awkward situation

it's refreshing to see that throwing around long-term contracts with no-trade clauses has repercussions occasionally.

They will buy him out and he'll sign with boston for min

I've met several Michigan natives who want to never set foot again anywhere near Detroit.

Too bad, too as the city while still having some serious problems are doing some extremely interesting/ good things.

I think either play hockey where his wife wants to practice or retire. in the meantime, he'll use the terms of his contract to his advantage.

And a dirty player who cries crocodile tears re: concussions

 

[voyageur]

Wow Ryan Suter is pulling three nhl salaries at once

Minnesota is paying him $1 million more than Morrissey to not play for them...that's crazy.

Rangers are still in a good enough position Cap wise to grind out another season with him, sign Lindgren, and go back to the well another time...Maybe Drury used the trade tactics as a motivator for him, to step up his game, because Schneider re-signed at $2.2 million looked better than him in the playoffs. I think Trouba's situation comes to an end next year, when the Rangers have to re-up on their star goalie and Lafreniere.

I was in Detroit only once in 2006 for the Super Bowl ... wow seriously I never seen anything like it, it was like a third world country in some areas and then you drive 20 minutes its like you are in a completely different country everything is normal and looks nice. I know every city has bad areas but this looked like a war zone a dead zone you see in the movies.

I'm so happy for the Rangers they can have the fun now dealing with Trouba .... always remember what goes around comes around.

Hello Oakland.

Wow lafreniere over scheif... harsh. Maybe he takes this to heart finally.

Good bye CapFriendly

P.L. Dubois is to blame for all this. I just know it.

 

[Buffdog]

Wow lafreniere over scheif... harsh. Maybe he takes this to heart finally.

Crazy how some of the guys on that Team North America from 2016 have fallen, and some are the best in the world today (McDavid, Matthews, Mackinnon, Helle)

Wow lafreniere over scheif... harsh. Maybe he takes this to heart finally.

Laf, Stamkos, Hyman, Reinhart, Thomas....Scheifele probably better than all those.

Laf, Stamkos, Hyman, Reinhart, Thomas....Scheifele probably better than all those.

Except they all outperformed scheif except lafreniere...

Awkward situation

Jacob "Awkward" Trouba

 

[ps241]

Laf, Stamkos, Hyman, Reinhart, Thomas....Scheifele probably better than all those.

Mark is a unique guy who likes to play the game his way. Very versatile tool kit offensively but lacks passion and consistency of effort without the puck. Mark would be a depth piece on this team so I can see why they went a different direction.

By what measure?

...if you retain 99% of his salary

...if you retain 99% of his salary

You would need them to retain some salary and probably take a contract back (Iafallo?), but a freshly engaged Laine could be a hell of a boost, and if that is enough for Ehlers to re-sign then maybe that gives us a big jump forward. I've been thinking there is something there with one of Columbus' high end D prospects and Rutger. Maybe Chevy works out something big that includes Laine?

I don't think Laine and Ehlers help us take the next step in the playoffs.

I'm ready to try something else

"There really aren't a lot of free agents out there. If (teams) have the (salary) cap (space) today, they'll probably still have it tomorrow. I know there are teams that are still interested. Teams keep checking in to see if there's anything new. I tell them, 'You guys have to be comfortable with (Laine), and I can't help you.' I don't know the player personally. I'm not one to try and trick people either, so (we) made him available to chat (when he's cleared)."

- Don Waddell

Laine is eligible to be traded while in the program, but Columbus Blue Jackets president and general Don Waddell told The Athletic that interested parties want to speak with the player before making a move to acquire him. No team, including the Blue Jackets, is allowed to contact Laine while he remains in the program.
