Salary Cap: Garbage Day collection comes early!

[PensandCaps]

Ugh

Year removed from 40 points in a 5v5 role, last year was bad but it is hard to get going on three different teams across 20 games each. If under a mil, im fine with it.

 

[K Fleur]

Today is going to be super lame.

We need to get younger players we finally got rid of a trash contract In Carter an we pick up another 32 year old veteran 4 liner at a whopping 3 million Pittsburgh also has limited cap space most NHL 4 line players make 775K -1.5 million Pittsburgh likes to pay 3.25 million we have enough veterans over the age of 30 we have 3-4 younger players that could of filled this roll at league minimum contracts #Dumbass

Play station GM.
Kid with a new toy.
But he works hard at sounding smart

 

[molon labe]

Waiting for our next Acciari to join with too much term and at a cap hit nobody else would want him for.

.... and for Sid to announce he's not signing an extension this year and will see how the year goes.

If it’s Beauvillier and re-signing POJ, it certainly will be lol…

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

This summer's gonna be like last summer minus all the excitement and hope brought on by the EK rumors and acquisition. So, in short, dogshit.

Just like the trade deadline. Teams have caught on that it’s best to keep talented player. Now what you have hitting the market are players with warts.

Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

What’s Kyle’s version of PF Changs?

 

[OnMyOwn]

Outside of trades, the roster is pretty full. I wouldn’t expect anything more than depth/WBS. We signed plenty of guys last year that never made the big club or only got a few games.

 

[Jag68Sid87]

With some of the term being given out today I can see GMs looking at Smith as very low risk alternatives to giving a Tyler Bertuzzi 5.5x4 or Eller being preferable to Sam Carrick for 3 years

I hope you are right, Sideline.

Grizzcheck played at BU, from Boston

 

[Maninthebox87]

An undersized Bahstan boy over 30…
AB I remember used to kill the pens when he was an Islander but he looks more like a guy you throw a PTO at than a contract. Hopefully the Pens are just being coy… Dubas seems like a pretty secretive guy and is probably not letting local media know his game plan for today.

Sweetgreen

 

[Lust for Life]

I prefer my free agency days to be lame, instead of holy shit they gave this guy 6 years?

Precisely. If the plan - that we have yet to really see - is to sell stuff off, leave some cap on the table to take on contracts that will inevitably come up plaguing contenders. That's how you nail sweeteners.

Plenty of youth to give a shot to.

If you feel like you have to sign anyone, sign 1-year deals exclusively so you can flip them.

[...because in no way is the plan feasibly to compete next year, sadly]

And he played for the Bruins…if the B’s gave up on him, he sucks or he’s asking too much…I sense a theme…our major problem is that Sullivan is still here and appears in equal authority with Dubas lol

And the depth signings will ultimately beat out the Poulin's, Ponomarev's, Koivunen's and even Puljujarvi's and Puustinen's of this world. Because, Sullivan.

Not even mentioning Yager anymore. I mean, you have to sign a contract to play in the NHL.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

Can we get a LIVE FA thread, please?

Dubas out to prove he can disappoint both ways.

I think he was HSed a lot IIRC
