Easy there Tyrion Lannister.

Are you wearing skates?

High heels.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Does anyone have any images of Kravtsov standing next to an object known to be 6'4"?

@Amazing Kreiderman how tall are you

 

[kovazub94]

Are you reacting to that pic of AK, because he's peaked.

I think he's just scratching the surface.

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

@Amazing Kreiderman how tall are you

1,75m

 

[kovazub94]

High heels.

OK, in front of a mirror, calling them skates.

All the Yanks are like what's that???

 

[UAGoalieGuy]

Just because every other country in the world uses the metric system doesnt mean we have to comply! 'Merica!

 

[ZiGOODejad]

Super stoked for this

The comma broke my brain.

Tarmo should stay in Europe another season.

Sure, but they might want to sign him and loan him back. Clock is ticking on their rights to Tarmo.

THANK YOU GOD

Thought it was baywatch

I was honestly slightly concerned about Igor not signing, and demanding a European out-clause if he did sign. This offseason just keeps on getting better and better.

Well, the details of the contract have not been released. Carp said it's a 3-year deal so he's already wrong about that

Ah damn I thought someone said there’s no European out-clause. Oh well, at least they signed him. But I still have clausetrophobia.

I will celebrate once it's official and the details are released

Why? Is Carpiniello unreliable?

 

[Amazing Kreiderman]

Why? Is Carpiniello unreliable?

Not saying he's unreliable, but:

- He's already wrong about Shestyorkin's ELC
- No other source has mentioned it yet (Except echoing what Carp posted)

 

[Machinehead]

Best offseason ever.

Now we have three goalies. What are we doing?

Yeah, I mean, I don't know if he's quite 6'4" but that's a big kid.

 

[offdacrossbar]

this news makes me happy.

Shestyorkin and kravtsov add instant talent to this roster. were getting younger and more skilled.

even though they are rooks, they are an injection of youth and talent that this organization badly needs.

super stoked.

I need to know what this gif is called

I Google Imaged "according to plan gif", and that little gem was close to the top.

Well, the details of the contract have not been released. Carp said it's a 3-year deal so he's already wrong about that

From the beginning of his article today:

Igor Shesterkin, the goalie long considered the heir apparent to Henrik Lundqvist, and forward Vitali Kravtsov, the first-round (No. 9 overall) pick in last June’s draft, both agreed to their standard three-year contracts.

I'd imagine he meant to say "their standard entry level contracts". Here is the rule from the CBA :

Based on age, the players offered an NHL entry level deal must be offered the following:

• Age 18-21: Three-Year Deal
• Age 22-23: Two-Year Deal
• Age 24: One- Year Deal

He has said many time before that he's not a CBA guru, I would guess he just assumed every ELC has to be a 3 year deal. Teams don't really have any leeway on ELCs
