[17futurecap]

Good day for Montreal.

 

[RGY]

Dallas trade is looking better and better.

What the **** happens to our forward group now?

Assuming our D will be:

McD - G
Staal - Boyle
Moore - Klein
Kostka

The forward group is going to be a mess with no cap space.

Kreider (2.5) - Step (3.1) - Nash (7.8)
Hags (2.25) - Miller (900k) - MSL (5.6)
Haggerty (925l) - Brass (4.5) - Zuccs (4)
Carter (950k) - Lindberg (675k) - Kantor (600k)
Carcillo (925k)


Has to be something like that, otherwise we have no cap space for during the year.

 

[RGY]

I wanted Iginla but we have no cap room now for him and we also would be getting infinitely older with him Boyle and MSL.

Ugh. We got the wrong guy that was over 35.

I think we could still conceivably do it depending on what he is willing to sign for.

Any guy over 35 is the wrong guy.

Or is the price for cap space, high?

 

[RangerBoy]

#NHLJets had expressed interest but it's sounding like #NYR UFA F Brian Boyle is probably going to go elsewhere

Raymond to Calgary for 3x3.5

 

[RGY]

Mason Raymond to CGY 3/$9.5

 

[AlternateSideParking]

Bolland is a great glue guy but 5.5 million was redonkulous.

He's always hurt.

 

[BarbaraAlphanse]

I think we could still conceivably do it depending on what he is willing to sign for.

We should be trying to get younger, though. Veteran leadership is good to an extent. 3 guys over 35 is a stretch.

“@Ledger_NJDevils: Kyperos reports Ryan Miller signs with Vancouver.”

I would never pay a 2nd for Brad Stuart, he's on the backend of his career.

RYan Miller to Vancouver.

I dont look at Iginla and MSL like that. And if you sign Iggy, youre going to have to get younger.

Reported by @RealKyper, Ryan Miller in VAN.

Miller to Van

 

[NYR Viper]

RYan Miller to Vancouver.

MSL gets 2 1st's + Callahan? Stuart is on the back-end of his career?

Stuart was god awful last season. Shocked he got that much.

 

[Bluenote13]

MSL gets 2 1st's + Callahan? Stuart is on the back-end of his career?

Stuart is 34 yrs old and did nothing last season.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

MSL gets 2 1st's + Callahan? Stuart is on the back-end of his career?

Yes and yes.

 

[1Knee1T]

MSL gets 2 1st's + Callahan? Stuart is on the back-end of his career?

MSL and a 2nd gets Callahan and two 1sts.

Adam Proteau ‏@Proteautype 7s
Canucks sign Ryan Miller to three-year, $18-million contrahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahact.

6 million/season

 

[Cassano]

6 mil per for Miller

 

[pld459666]

I would have gladly given Raymond 3.5 per for 3 years over Dan Boyle at 4.5 for 2.

One guy will still be servicavble in years 2 and 3, the other guy will be on a respirator

smh
