[f7ben]

And he hasn't signed anybody yet friend.

Tiger and changing their stripes and all

I'm not saying he won't, but we'll see what happens.

From what I understand the last folks in charge of it all tried some ridiculous, half assed scheme to combat the bird flu thing and killed a bunch of the chickens here in the US. Guessing they were trying to offset it by buying them from overseas. Or anywhere else they could get them. The new people that took over had a new plan and it's helped drop prices buy 2/3. I quit eating breakfast about a year or so ago, so I don't really buy eggs much anymore. However due to curiosity, when I walk by them in the dairy aisle, I'll take a look to see what they're at for price at the time.

I mean, this is half true.

All of our bad contracts are just placeholders for the kids.

That's nice to think about in theory, but rarely works that way in practice. You can still sign good contracts while waiting for the kids. This GM is still going to give out bad contracts when the kids get here.

Do we actually think a short-term deal is in play? Something like 4 x $12.5M?

Guerin gets 5 years to get it done or he goes Cup hunting in his 33+ years.

Wouldn’t be a shocker but I wonder how aware of his injury history he is and would be more looking for term.

With rumors that Marner and McDavid are open to the possibility of mid-range deals (~5 years) due to the fast-rising cap (and more player control), it wouldn't surprise me if Kaprizov sees it the same way.

That might be the best for the Wild

I’d be shocked if he did. Kaprizov’s next contract starts when he’s 30 and he’s an undersized forward who has back to back season missing significant games. His agent is going to want to cash in.

Can't imagine why his agent would say Kaprizov deserves less than Elias Pettersson or Panarin in a rising cap environment.

Just saying that the $12.5 AAV is most likely not happening, unless one truly believes he likes playing with Zuccarello and Johansson so much that money isn't an issue.
