This Vegas/Rangers game is fantastic. I’d imagine the boys are fired up with Sydney Sweeney being in the building at MSG. Checks out

That's the chick that threw out the opening pitch in a game that the Jays absolutely destroyed the Red Sox... good times

Allvin goes all-in on Marcus Pettersson, six years, $5.5M AAV

Canucks sign 'calming' Marcus Pettersson to six-year contract extension

 

[crackdown44]

Great deal for Van unfortunately

Good precedence as a comp for us when we go to the table for Bahl.

Bahl's got a way to go to be at that level.

 

[Figgy44]

Bahl's got a way to go to be at that level.

Yeah. So, that's why we are going to get a good contract?

 

[Volica]

Yeah. So, that's why we are going to get a good contract?

Yeah, I mean, he'll get a pay increase from the 1M he's making this year for sure.
I'd probably have him in the 3-3.5M range leading into UFA. Not sure Calgary will buy many years there. Maybe a 4x4 to buy a couple years of FA?

He's been good for us this year for sure, and him missing time has certainly been felt.

Honestly, I'd try to get a 5 year 4-4.5 mil AAV for him. This is his first season as a top 4 guy, but if he even is an average middle pairing guy, that'll be a steal in a couple years.

6 year 5.5 will age like the Andersson and Hanifin contracts. No brainer in my mind.

Bahl is a core piece for me. He’s the perfect compliment to the prospects in our system. 6’6, good skater, physical. Those don’t grow on trees.

I'd be wiling to go the full 8 years for Bahl lock up his prime.

Montreal Canadiens' Ivan Demidov rated No. 1 on Craig Button’s Top 50 NHL-affiliated prospects list | TSN

Montreal Canadiens blue-chipper Ivan Demidov, in the middle of a record-setting season in the KHL, is the No. 1 player on Craig Button’s top 50 NHL-affiliated prospects list.

www.tsn.ca

A few 'Cgy's turning head, I'm a little shocked to see Stromgren so high though I feel like Button's been higher on him than most

 

[Mobiandi]

MacKinnon with 4 points, Makar with 3. McDavid -3 against his two fathers

I dunno if y’all are watching this 4 Nations biz, but Finland is looking TUFF so far vs. the U.S.

I won’t be surprised if they pull off the dub tonight.

Edit: whoops, just tuned into the 3rd and it looks like it’s coming apart for the Finns now lmao a valiant effort thru two though, and there is still 19 minutes left

How do you qualify for this tournament? We would be most likely eaten alive (Slovakia) but curious how you get there.

be a top 5 hockey nation that isn't invading other countries

I think the NHL left it at 4 for a reason, didnt want games too close together nor more than 2 weeks off. Yourselves and the Czechs could of easily been there otherwise.
