Rumor: Rumors & Proposals Thread: Movie Poster Edition VII- "Deadline"

[DrDrai]

My kid ended up with a stomach flu so I have to take care of him from home today. Good job little buddy way to pick a good day

Hahaha mine too. The wife was like “rock, paper, scissors?” to stay home.

I said “ I’ll take the bullet this time, but you owe me.”

 

[Thomas Tatar]

He isn't a significant upgrade over Skinner. Is that a hot take? Very similar stats on teams with drastically different levels of defence quality.

Yeah maybe, you’re comparing an elite starter to a rookie. The real question isn’t Skinner vs Saros it’s Campbell vs Saros.

You make that trade every day of the week.

Who’s the blonde chick that was just talking to Button? She looks like she has a tonne of attitude.

 

[MessierII]

Don't agree with your last sentence. I would take 16-17 Klefbom over Nurse today.

With cap considerations I would too but cap aside nurse is distinctly the better player.

 

[Ritchie Valens]

Still see Huberdeau asking out this summer . I think he ends up on the Habs with Calgary retaining

It's crazy but I could still see him asking his contract to be nullified and he becomes a UFA. Money doesn't buy happiness and he'll score another 7 year/40+ million dollar contract elsewhere.

My wife doesn’t get paid time off I do so it was no question who was staying home lol

 

[Trafalgar Sadge Law]

Probably not on the market but I'd love to do something like Wilson with 2.1 mil retained for Yamamoto+Bourgault/Holloway+2024 1st+2023 2nd.

Is that even possible? Would laugh my ass off if he did but would still prefer to see them forced to trade him after his 12 goal season. That’s Lucic level bad considering what he signed for

I would sell my soul for Tom Wilson on this club.

 

[Thomas Tatar]

Sorry guys. Button wouldn’t bet on the Oilers to beat the Avs. Pack it in, we’re done here.

you can't nullify a contract due to "unhappiness"

 

[Soundwave]

I don't agree with this, I think Klefbom was a smarter defender, Nurse gets himself caught in dumb situations too often (ie: doesn't know whether to cover the open man or fall back to the net front, but just ends up screening his own goalie). Klefbom made mistakes too but they weren't as glaring.

 

[PositiveCashFlow]

hey at least we aren't trying to acquire old Oil Kings anymore. Though I wouldn't mind Cossa

 

[Paralyzer]

OMG WAKE UP HOLLAND! WE COULD HAVE HAD LAZAR! BRING OUR BOI BACK TO EDMONTON!

 

[Ibanez]

Can two parties not agree to walk away though if mutually agreed? A lot of contract have clauses like that. At least in my experience

No idea if that applies to hockey contracts though. Just a general comment

[LeonDraisaitl29]

Holland asleep again. (Sarcasm)

 

[Paralyzer]

I wouldn't bet on Button to not get beaten the living shit out of him either, but here we are:

That would never happen. The agent wouldn't allow his client to do something stupid and the NHLPA even would probably step in and tell him to cut that shit out, it would set a bad precident for the rest of the league.

He can ask for a trade out and even sit out if he wants if he really isn't into being there that much.

If anything he should be happy he signed that contract when he did, because he wouldn't get anything close to that now, lol. He took the money and ran.

 

[Morpheus]

Lazar signed a team friendly deal to be with his home team Canucks.
I’m sure he ain’t too happy atm, even though he is probably smiling.
Heading to a good team situation in Jersey. I’ll be watching / cheering for them this playoff year, fun team.

 

[Darkwinter]

Man, it must be a dead trade-line day.Hf board has yet to crash

 

[McJadeddog]

Holloway will play in the playoffs. At least he should.

You think so? I don't see who he plays above myself. McLeod? not a chance. Kostin? I suppose maybe, but likely not. Bjugstad? I don't think so considering he is RH C. Ryan? same as Bjug. Possible, but unlikely. Janmark? Don't think so. Foegele? This is the only one I think is realistic at all, but even here I pretty clearly land with Foegele over Holloway (twice as many points in same number games, and a veteran). I think Holloway only sees ice if there are a couple injuries.

maybe...but who says no to 80 million dollars? lol

You can take the idiot out of Calgary but you can’t take the Calgary out of the idiot.
