I know right.A bunch of those slide, so there really isn't any issue.

Well, to be truly pedantic, I would ask if that is factually correct or is it $1,551,701 to $2,290,457.99?If you were being really pedantic, then it would be $1,551,701.01 to $2,290,457 and so on.![]()
Deadline is tues morn 7am next week.So.. when's the dead line on this? Feels like Broberg and Holloway are Blues now.
Tuesday 7amSome fans already posted both of them into the Blues lineup so I assume its a done deal.
Oh dear, I thought that was a 24 hour thingDeadline is tues morn 7am next week.

No 7 days.Oh dear, I thought that was a 24 hour thing![]()
they clearly think the Blues have a better chance at the cup.

Followed by stinberg lindstein amd then ralph plekerik fischer and zhernekoThe Blues window starts in 2 years when their top prospects will be ready. The first wave will be Dvorsky and Snuggerud
Not at the moment but none you all thought we would win in 2019. Edm was almost routed by you guys. There is no certain cup victory is therethey clearly think the Blues have a better chance at the cup.

Not sure what you mean by "slide" and shouldn't be an issue but Armstrong will still need to make a move if EDM does not match.A bunch of those slide, so there really isn't any issue.
Pekarcik, Stancl, and Jiricek will be in CHL. Dvorsky won't because he's actually AHL eligible now and will play there. Army won't have to do anything even if we get both players. Could still see a minor move related to a player that just doesn't have a future anymore, but it's not like Army forced himself into a corner and has to do something.Not sure what you mean by "slide" and shouldn't be an issue but Armstrong will still need to make a move if EDM does not match.
Blues currently have 51 SPCs on a limit of 50 allowed. The only CBA exemption from counting against this number are "Age 18 and age 19 players who were returned to Juniors, and who have not played 11 NHL Games in one season, shall be exempt from inclusion in the 50 Player limit".
The Blues have six players on SPCs that fit this (Stenberg, Dvorsky, Pekarcik, Stancl, Jiricek, and Lindstein). Only two of them play in the CHL (Dvorsky, Stancl), Stancl will very likely start the season in the CHL but Dvorsky will likely (or maybe not) get his 11 game tryout since he can't go to the AHL (won't reach 20 by 31 Dec).
Its not an issue as Armstrong could move a Loof or a McGinn or a Sylvegard for "future considerations" or convince one or more of Stenberg, Pekarcik, Jiricek, or Lindstein to move to the CHL but, like I said earlier, there will need to be a move,
So, what's the compensation if the offer is half a dollar above the maximum of a range and a half a dollar below the minimum of a range?OK, sorry to be pedantic but my OCD can't take this chart anymore.
There, I fixed it.

How does this work if Toronto matches the offer but Nic Robertson doesn't want to sign with Toronto?which is crazy because we've been talking about using offer sheets like this for years at HF.
It's the mid-tier (2nd and 3rd round pick) level of offer sheets that are the most difficult to deal with.
No one is going to sign Seider and put a few unprotected 1st round picks on the table. And Detroit would match. It's dumb to talk about those.
It's the Brobergs and Holloways that were ALWAYS the best targets of the offer sheet game. HF knew this years and years ago. The NHL really is run by too many good ole boys.
The good news out of all of this is... perhaps teams start to utilize offer sheets like they should be deployed. Make the off seasons interesting for such an slow and backwards league to begin with.
like... why hasn't a team with cap space done an offer sheet on Nic Robertson at the 3rd round level? He's NHL ready, showing signs he can be an effective scorer in the middle six role and what's the risk? 2 years at $2.3MM and losing a measly 3rd round pick? That's noting. Go for it dummies.
He's a restricted free agent, he would have no control over it, once he signs the offer sheet he is agreeing to the contract regardless of which team it applies to. He could fail to report but he would have no leverage.How does this work if Toronto matches the offer but Nic Robertson doesn't want to sign with Toronto?
Yes and they both signedHas either player accepted the offer sheets?
Yes both have; which is what triggers the 7 day "right of first refusal" from Edmonton. It's not a verbal agreement, they have signed the contracts; the team (Edmonton or St. Louis) is the only thing left to be determined.Has either player accepted the offer sheets?

Yes. The reason you write nonsensical posts is because you rush them while operating a motor vehicle.
Vinny actually earned his deal and was a big part of the oilers defence turning things around. The other guys still have a lot to prove.One thing about making a Cup Final, all of the sudden other GMs think all your players are gold, lol.
Desharnais was a career AHLer 18 months ago, at the trade deadline people were saying Broberg couldn't even return a 2nd rounder, McLeod was a marginal player, Holloway had an mediocre 9 points in 38 games, etc. etc.
Those 13 games clearly got Zadorov a bottom pairing dman, prone to turnovers and a 20 point guy paid.I was talking about Broberg benefiting by the Oilers winning and advancing in the playoffs without him on the ice, totally different. Also I think Zadorov had a great playoff and increased his value, Lindholm I cant say the same for, also they only won one playoff series, so winning didnt get either of them paid.
No just you. Please enlighten me on how anthing i have written in this thread is not on the level bro.Let me state for the record that the rest of us Blues fans do not claim this guy.
Blues scouting is top notch in league. Thats why they generally knock ot out of the park. Armstrong and company know what they are doing. We need a good young lhd. He saw an opp and he went for it.Vinny actually earned his deal and was a big part of the oilers defence turning things around. The other guys still have a lot to prove.
As a Habs fan when Kotkaniemi signed his offer sheet I was pretty pissed because it f***ed up all the plans we might've had with him but then again it was such a no brainer for him to sign that I couldn't really blame the guy. Neither of these contracts are that ludicrous in terms of AAV but likely a lot more than they would've got with the Oilers so it's the same kinda situation in that regard. They'd just be dumb to pass on that.Question to Oiler fans - are you guys upset that Holloway and Broberg signed the offer sheets? Are you happy they went to "secure the bag" or is there some sort of loyalty you'd expect from them (even if meant taking less to play in Edm)?
Genuinely curious
You get half of a pick.So, what's the compensation if the offer is half a dollar above the maximum of a range and a half a dollar below the minimum of a range?
I wasn't all that surprised when you guys won, I was more surprised how poorly things had gone that season.Followed by stinberg lindstein amd then ralph plekerik fischer and zherneko
