Around the NHL: Part III – Oilers Fire Chiarelli [Update: Still Suck]

[NYRFANMANI]

Someone pls tell me how the Leafs are not f***ed with their cap situation. They have 30 million tied up with 3 forwards. 36 for 4 including Marleau, still excluding Marner and Kapper's new contracts.

They will 100% have to move Nylander at the draft.

based on TB's roster they can still add 4 more high paid players

Pretty sure Point is in the last year of ELC so they’re not f***ed until this summer. He’s gonna get something like 9-10 mil unless he takes a serious Florida discount.

It makes their window 5 years. The question is... how many cups do they win in that window. That'll be the judge.

I think they'll find a taker for Marleau in the offseason too.

He has a NMC. He has to want to be traded and seeing as it's likely going to be his final year in the NHL hes not going to go anywhere.

Didn't know that. Yeah they are screwed.

Yeah it seems like the cap doesn’t exist in Tampa.

Debbies vs LA and St. Louis vs Florida, 3 point games please.

Ducks getting smacked around in the first again by Montreal. Countless lazy turnovers leading to good chances.

They should start selling off their vets. Getzlaf, Perry, and Kesler should all be on the market but they're not. Carlyle is still the coach there. Bob Murray is in fantasy land (sic Disneyland) over there.

Perry and especially Kesler would be a tough sell lol

Is Kesler hurt again? I haven't been paying attention honestly. I know Perry has missed a lot of time this season.

Kesler sucks and is signed for 6.8 for 3 more years after this current one.

6 points in 45 games RIP

Lolz. Makes Staal's contract look good. Perhaps someone dumb can be swindled into taking Kesler if Anaheim retains half his cap hit.

Perry just came back. Kesler sucks. That contract isn't getting moved.

There was a main board thread about it recently and half the posts were like, "mother of god" lmao

People bitch and moan about our roster but Anaheim is in much worse situation IMO.

If Anaheim wants to part with this year’s first, I’d be glad to taken on Kesler’s salary.

Devils getting roasted by the Kings

How so? They have a young NHL-proven goaltender, good young blue line, and a lot of good young forward prospects. I think their coach sucks a dogs ass and they have had bad injury problems all season, but I think they're in better shape than us going forward.

Perry's contract is bad. Kesler's is really bad. At least Getzlaf is still somewhat productive but for how long? Basically they have contracts they'll struggle to move. At least we are tanking and building a farm system. Ducks are stuck in no mans land.
