should we do our own mock arbitration here?

how would that work.

Why is no one talking about Barrie?

Why is no one talking about Barrie?

Probably because there is no indication that his contract negotiation is going to be as complicated and there is no looming arbitration deadline.

If it wasn't complicated he would be signed already.

Lots of RFAs are signed in late July to September. Loads of RFAs are still unsigned from DeKeyser to Erixon. Means nothing at this point.

Because it's July. Plenty of RFAs aren't signed until September.

Why is no one talking about Barrie?

Because if we do, ROR will read this and think we don't see him as the most important player right now and it may turn him away from signing with the good guys at a steep discount while granting him Admiralcy of the Avalnche ship as he steers it to the destined Isle of Stanley.

As others have said, RFA negotiations go on for months yet. Nothing unusual about not having a contract yet.

If we give O'Reilly more money than Duchene, we can just give Duchene the 'A'. BOOM. Everyone wins.

O'Money will ask to be traded.

The Noreau signing could be an indication. They appear to be very similar players. Size, style/scouting report, non-nhl production/success. That's probably more about Elliott, but crazier things have happened.

 

[Freudian]

You can't spell character without CAA.

I think O'Reilly should get all the letters.

I think you're right about that being about Elliott. Sakic said they expect Elliott to sign his QO and as far as I know that hasn't happened yet.

O'Reilly looks large and a Hishon sighting.

 

[Avs71]

O'Reilly looks like he is wearing goalie shoulder pads.

Yeah. Looks like a goalie.

Naw, he's just really really fat.

Which one is Hishon?

 

[Avs_19]

Which one is Hishon?

Front and center in the Avs jersey.

O'Reilly looks like the michelin man.

Oh, that makes sense. He is obviously the 3' guy. Doy

O'Reilly wearing a USA Hockey jersey. Treason.

i wouldnt go that far ,

But last time i checked he was still playing for the Avs, so how come he didnt put on a Avs Jersey , like Hishon did ? Yeah i know he's RFA and in contract negociation , but still it's sending mixed signals IMO
