Lehner signs 5 X $5 in Vegas.

Lehner signs 5 X $5 in Vegas.

Now they need to move Fleury to free up cap space. They need to pay for 4 more guys with $0 cap space. On their board they seem to think someone will pay for Fleury but he is a huge boat anchor with that salary.

I have heard suggestion they are a frontrunner for Petro??? Try fitting that contract in. I think Fluery will need a sweetener to get a new home.

 

[moosemeister]

I’d take him off their hands for one Cody Glass hahaha

 

[GhostofTommyBolin]

Minny trades Dubnyk and a 7th rd pick in 2022 to San Jose for a 5th rd pick in 2022.

 

[TheLegend]

Matt Niskanin retires.

 

[TheLegend]

Connor McDavid has tested positive for CoVID19

 

[The Feckless Puck]

 

[moosemeister]

Holy f***. I don't think I'd make that trade. haha

 

[Jagged Ice]

What????? How did Tie allow that? His perfect son should be on a big stage like Toronto or New York.

 

[TheLegend]

I can see Tie Domi trying to tell Torts how to play Max.

Big gamble for Montreal. If Anderson becomes his old self again, this is a big win. If not, this is a big loss. At the end of the day, they started with Galchenyuk anyway. Lol. They should sign him as a UFA just for the lulz.

That's why MTL had to add the 3rd.

You think Oilers fans would have been more open to moving 14 if they knew it was going to be Holloway? lol

Yes.

Hilarious that Edmonton thinks Dylan Holloway can help them more than Darcy Kuemper. That team lives pissing away the McDrai years. f***ing losers.

Two seconds for a guy they didn't qualify, but nothing for a goaltender.

Tipp must have been running the draft:


“A lot of times you draft a player, and if they don’t grab a spot in the top six, they have trouble checking well enough to play lower in the roster,” Holland said. “[But Holloway] has the ability to help in different ways beyond just getting points.”

And you can trade for those guys without giving up 14th overall! Dumbass.

They win the HFOil Prospect Cup every year. That's enough for them.

 

[Mosby]

A bit of that mindset has been absorbed by analysts now too.

I can't remember who said it but it was essentially, "They're not going to give up Bouchard for OEL, no way."

You hope Bouchard becomes OEL.

And critically, even if he does, you've wasted time getting there. It's a different calendar when you have McDrai already.

I think it’s equally a big risk for Columbus. I’m not hating on Columbus but it’s a small market town and Domi has already wanted out of one of those. He could very likely be gone in a couple years when he gets to choose to play where he wants.

 

[Bondurant]

Yes.

Consider whom is drafting for Edmonton. The man thought Abdelkader was a star and Stephen Weiss was the key to winning another Cup. Holland has become Al Davis.

Has there been any confirmation about this small market business or is this whispers on this sub forum? Nobody has ever linked me to anything.

Craig has mentioned is a few times. I would have to dig it up. Tie Domi may have been Max’s mouth piece when he openly shared his disgust with how our team being in the position it’s in financially is out there acquiring players that will never play for the team (cap dumps) to gain an asset. Said Max didn’t understand it and was happy to move to a real hockey market.
