buyer's market

Reasonable take.

But so is cap space being at an obvious premium, which is relevant when a trade takes back 4 MM for next year. Hopefully he’s movable.

I thought the Risto contract would age terribly, but even I didn't forsee him missing half of the second season out of five. $11m+ in useless RHD contracts on the books till 2027 thanks to Chuck.

Hes only on year 2 ????

Seems like its been 5 years.

The inner Chinese frugal man in me loves to see savings like that. But the rational man in me is like get that poverty franchise out of there or get a new owner willing to spend money.

I mostly feel bad for their fans. Being stuck in purgatory for a decade is brutal.

Carolina is a well oiled machine

are they though? We’ve been to a cup finals more recently.

Rip the band aid off and relocate instead of teasing the actual die hard with the potential of an actual team not playing salary shenanigans.

You must be talking about flyers fans

 

[FromOyVey2Matvei]

I'm not counting on the Flyers trading anyone but RyJo, if that, today. Returns for forwards look weak as hell this deadline, and the Flyers want the moon and stars, which I don't think they're getting.

I’m fine with Briere having a price and sticking to it (when it’s not a pending UFA). Anaheim did the same with Henrique last year and ultimately got their price this year. With all the picks / flexibility we already have in the next 2 drafts, there’s no major rush.

[CanadianFlyer88]

Lagesson (ANA) and Katchouk (OTT) claimed. Florida claimed Bjornfot.

Raanta cleared...

 

[BritainStix]

Bjornfot would have been better than Johnson ffs.

 

[GKJ]

People will complain about Sportsnet coverage, but every time I've looked up at ESPN since they came on the air, it's been commercials

 

[wankstifier]

Bjornfot would have been better than Johnson ffs.

He didn't win a Cup
