I think vegas is taking the playbook from other sports teams like the yankees or manchester united or whatever

They're ten points ahead of the last wild card and dropping games to teams they should be beating. There's no guarantee they can hold on with 26 more games to go especially with Stone out. I'm not saying it's a certainty but missing another star forward isn't going to help. This isn't like last year when the team was playing well in spite of Stone being out. They're playing poorer with Eichel out and it's only going to get worse with Stone joining him on LTIR.
So did it get worse?

Hertl, Mantha and Hanifin incoming. Seems like you guys will be okay.

There is no doubt if this happened in either MLB or NBA? The leagues would have step in.

In soccer teams quite literally buy success all the time. I guess all soccer leagues must be 10th rate or something. Most popular sport in the world? La-la-la, I can't hear you.

Seriously, what Vegas is doing is within the rules, what exactly do you expect the league to do? The silence from owners and GMs compared to the loud whining from fans is pretty telling.
 
There is no doubt if this happened in either MLB or NBA? The leagues would have step in. Not in the NHL. It is joke. Vegas could ice a 100 mill dollar line-up for game one of the playoffs. But NO--it is not circumvention? For the NHL to allow this shows why the NHL is the least respected or popular sporting leagues in the states. By allowing this? NHL loses fans they do not gain them.
Tampa Bay won with a 100 mill roster.

Multiple other teams have also been using the LTIR Loophole to have 90+ mill rosters. It is what it is.

Still worried... we talked a week ago and you made it sound like there were not enough assets to get anyone.. since then you got everyone.lol
I am surprised that teams wanted to give these guys away to “cheaters” so easily, but one of the guys we got is called a lazy player by many on here, and another is out with an injury. And the team still sucked yesterday.

People are also overrating the players we get. Every time the team gets someone people almost act like we got McDavid and now the rest of the league has no chance.
 
Cup favorite IMO

Juggernaut! Well done and slow clap.
Lets make the playoffs first. So far this team reminds me more of the worst Knights team ever had than any of the Knights teams that tried to contend for something.

Being paper champions means nothing.

good thing they just gave you guys their #1 dman :laugh:
So far the more they give away the more they close the gap between the two teams. You would think that wouldn’t happen but it has been that way so far.
 
I'm fine with Vegas doing this but they should give the sens or whoever back their pick lol
 
I'm more concerned about Mike Grier's cognitive abilities over Vegas doing something in the rules.
