Canes Offer Sheet KK (6.1 for 1 yr) Part II

[JoelWarlord]

You do know there's a 10% cushion on the cap until the season starts, while also not having to submit a cap compliant roster until the last week of training camp?

They can match. Stop repeating BS you read on FB.

They genuinely can't at this moment, they realistically can/likely will but they will have to clear salary first since Byron/Weber aren't on LTIR in the offseason so matching the contract puts them above the 10% buffer.

Suzuki? Danault ? Say why you want nuts he’s acquired more quality centres than any of the prior Gms. And fluke or not he acquired a 70 point Center, don’t discredit when you ask for an example lmao

Bold statement that facts don't recreate.

They don't have to submit a lineup until October.

10% cushion puts the cap at 90,75

Habs are at 84

There's 6,75 of space

I always thought the no-brainer move was to put Evans with the speedy North-South Byron and Anderson, and put KK with the slow cycling/puck possession Perry and Armia, replacing putrid Staal. But there seems to be more to the story?

I'm confused. What does KK's scratch have to do with Josh Anderson? Did I miss something?

BREAKING NEWS!!!

MB was seen walking his dog this morning.

MB was seen walking his dog this morning.

Probably muttering something about loyalty.

BREAKING NEWS!!!

MB was seen walking his dog this morning.

I guess unlike KK, his dog won’t sign an OS.

 

[WeThreeKings]

All depends what we get back of course

I don't think we're getting McDavid, sadly.

It's more that he said that Anderson knows the reason, not that it's implicated himself

Bergevin's dog would leave for an owner offering 3x the kibble and we all know it.

 

[Doc McKenna]

I don’t fault KK for signing the offer sheet, I’d have done the same thing if it guarantees that increase in salary whilst playing for a dynamic team like the Canes. What irks me is he agreed to that $20 signing bonus. How could he sign that knowing that he might stay in Montreal..

Because he doesn't want to stay. And if you check the polls 3/4 of people think he won't.

He is thinking" I want this new opportunity and the pay is awesome!" The habs management has pissed all over the kid, of course you say kiss my ass and leave with a middle finger. Its more reason for them not to try to match. You insulted Bergevins ego, he won't have that.

110% of the cap is $89,650,000, and the contract takes them to $89,876,385.

Why Anderson?

Not without Caufield or Romanov off the roster. MTL have the $ to match the offer.

Darkest day part 117 639 ?

i like your imagination, you should write a book or a movie script; "one shade of grey "

 

[dinodebino]

Don't know how much truth there is to this because the 2C spot was going to be KKs.

Darren is having fun with this. After all, it did not happen to his beloved Figs.

 

[JoelWarlord]

Just once I'd like to see Bergevin go into a negotiation trying to get it done early instead of trying to squeeze over small potatoes. I'm sure this gets done 7 weeks ago at a 1 year for $3M.

 

[dinodebino]

Arrgh! I can’t keep up with this thread!!!!

 

[Agalloch]

Why Anderson?

Rumors Anderson didn't want to play on the ice with Kotkaniemi.

 

[dinodebino]

Melnyk's burner account is already running him out of town, so don't worry.

I just love this one post.

 

[Hullois]

So 24h of complete radio silence from the habs.

 

[McGees]

some have speculated on this but i wonder how much of this has to do with caufield and suzuki given more leash than him, and of course the Eichel rumours. Looking back now, it was a terrible idea to rush him. Whether one agrees or not, He definitely feels disrespected and untrusted.

Being benched, pretty much always getting lame linemates, low ball offers from MB and ya Eichel rumours have affected kk I gotta think. Problem is he hasn’t been consistent enough to deserve those things and especially that contract. He’s added a crap load of pressure tho signing it.
