Lol f*** that guyWould we even entertain the idea of Trouba on a cheap deal? 3rd pairing at least to start?
He really is the worst GM. Wouldn't have a job if it wasn't for his nameThe Tre special. Guy is one of the worst GMs in the league. At least he helped build our team.
Knight was definitely a possibility, but today was the day for that. Bob-Knight it is....The more I look at our cap situation the more difficult the next two seasons seem cap wise. And it mostly comes down to goaltending. It’s going to be way too difficult to Resign Reinhart, Verhaeghe, and Bennett, and find a second pair right D to play with Mikkola while paying our goalies 14.5 million.
Yes Ekblad’s 7.5 against the cap isn’t great this year but it will be coming off the books next season and I can’t see him getting anywhere near that from us going forward if he stays. And even if he is traded this offseason that leave 2 RD to sign for this year with now an extra 7.5 but will be taken up by one of those guys anyway.
I can’t really see them trading Bob at this point after he just one a cup, but maybe they do. It seems like our best option is to trade Knight for a long term RD option or the assets we can flip to get a RD. Then bring back Stolarz as the backup for a couple of years and revisit the goaltending after Bob is up.
Who has that Buffalo News tweet by Tim Graham bad mouthing Rhino? Need it for a main boards thread, anyone?
God damn this never gets old LOLView attachment 889768
That one?
Yup and for him to get the Game 7 game-winning goal makes me giggle.God damn this never gets old LOL
I think Stolarz walks like Lyon did but a replacement is needed. I am not 100% sure that Knight is ready for the NHL because of that mental issue and Bob playing so much. Therefore I was thinking that one option is to keep him in the AHL and recall him once a high earning player is injured. Next year he'd be more mature to take part of the responsibility in the net.The more I look at our cap situation the more difficult the next two seasons seem cap wise.

The salary cap will go up by four millions in 2025 and there will be no Yandle in the books which means that they'll have $5+ m compared to what they have this summer. I think that Bennett isn't getting an extension. He is injured a lot and Lundell will be ready to replace him. Verhaeghe resigns for ~ $8 AAV.The more I look at our cap situation the more difficult the next two seasons seem cap wise. And it mostly comes down to goaltending.

Who cares? The league told teams to cut back on silly formalities. 31 teams congratulating us would have done nothing but waste time. If it is the standard going forward, then it's a huge win for me.Was this Draft the most disrespected Draft we ever saw??
Its unusual that none Team congratulation the Panthers for their Cup Win. That never happend ever once before. Alex Baumgartner brought up this.
And i would really agree, no matter how short the Time was, for me is this complete disrespect from the League, this even happend from Teams you would call better tradeing Partner with our Team.
Why no one even said one congratulation Panther for winning your first Stanley Cup.

It takes literally 5 seconds to congratulate Florida for winning the cup.Some Things are formal you do and some Things you can pass on. Like Thank the City and Fans of Utah to welcome to the League and thanks for the hostality. The 1st Round Draft going only for an hour or an 1 hour 30 Mins.
Dont like it, you can cut things but a formal part is a must.
