Ryan O’Reilly, Conn Smyth, a big thank you from all STL Blues fans to Buffalo GM Jason Botterill from the deal of O’Reilly to STL. Hopefully the trade also worked out for you too😂

I say 3-2 Bruins...in oovvvvvertime

Well, guess that’s makes for an easier decision, as I still own him in one Capwise League hoping he might resign at a “reasonable AVV”, so now a buyout this cap season is now a certainty.
-
Guess it’s technically classed a “recreational drug”.....kinda sad but true......

NHL has no real policy on recreational drugs. They can use the data to help the player but normally there is no punishment.
Not sure one would consider cocaine a “recreational drug”....

Whoever posted this video, probably not a friend of his for sure! The optics look very bad, but not sure he will be disciplined by the NHL on a video.
-
What’s tough in our Leagues is the term, as the buyout would be next to impossible for a least the first 3 years of the contract.
The toughest decisions in Capwise are rather to accept or walk away from some RFA renewals, as cap management is such a key component to this great league framework.
One of the RFA forecast spreadsheets had a 4 year deal at $4.5, so looks like they miss the mark just a bit.

Ummm....guess that’s the going rate for a 25 goal and 53 point player.
Good deal or or bad deal from a Capwise perspective?
-
I think Gardiner, being more offensively talented will be $6-$6.5, just my guess as he is going to UFA, so he will be a very attractive target for some teams needed some O from the blue line.
-
Seems like the going rate these days for top 4 defenseman.
Reasonable Contract???
-
Maybe he got injured carrying around all the money he has not earned on his ludicrous contract.
-
My guess Bob, the Bread Man, Duchene and Dzingle all go UFA, and none resign in Columbus....
-
2019 1st is apparently lottery protected if it is the 1-2-3 pick, so best Ottawa would get would be the 4th overall pick if everything feel their way.
-
Seems a little high, but considering his stats vs. Nylander, guess it’s about right. Looks like $6-7M contracts will become the norm for 1st and some 2nd line players, at least before the next lockout and likely lost season.
-
Karma is a bitch...did anyone see a similar late blind side hit that Wilson laid on Marchessault in the same game that I don’t think resulted in any penalty.
At some point, likely this season, Wilson will make another dumb cheap shot hit on someone and his suspension will be very very long and very well deserved.
-
The hit was very late, and could have been avoided, but hey, it’s Tom Wilson. Probably no supplemental discipline this time, but he is on a very short lease these days his next dumb, cheap hit will likely be very costly in games suspension.
-
He has certainly not shown that he can be a #1 G when given the chance, and with his AVV and contract, I would be really surprised if any picked him up off waivers. If anyone would, it would likely be the Flyers who would add another goalies to their goalies circus..

Is there anything worse than having to watch Bruins vs anybody and have to listen to Jack Edwards. Such a homer.
I second that motion of Jackass Edwards.....

Looked pretty bad. Likely out long term 3-4 months if broken leg like Justin Schultz.

Snooze buster deal........

This will hopefully help the offensive side as Pearson is a significant upgrade over Haggy. Haggy is all speed, good forechecker and PK, but has little offensive upside, even with playing most of the year with Malkin. Will this solve all the Pens issues YTD, probably not.
A lot of noise about Sprong, and he is not, nor will never be a 4th line grinder. He needs a chance of playing 5+ games with a good center, like Brassard when he returns. He has offensive upside, but Sully has to put him in a position to at least have a chance to show his offensive upside. Will he get the chance, unfortunately does not look like Sully is too high on Sprong.
Do do they miss Schultz, YES, a lot. In my opinion, they just don’t have the speed on defense to continue pinch every chance they have. No wing support when pinching allows for way to many breakaways or odd man rushes. This is coaching and game planning, and allow Sully. For now they just need to try too play a conservative defensive game, and hopefully capitalize on their offensive opportunities.
Murray simply has to play better, so hopefully he can do that tonight.
Sid was held out of practice yesterday, so let’s hope that’s not an issue. If he misses several games, either the team falls apart or they rally and play smart, fast and aggressive hockey.
-
Unfortunately looks like the Justin Schultz injury, so if broken leg/ankle, probably 3-6 months on the shelf.
-
Think it’s $6.5m AVV...correct?
-
Sound like a good deal for Vegas? They are sure betting long term on players like Tuch and Schmidt to continue to be high performing players at their new contracts and AVV'S.

Did not see this one coming for the Islanders. Not sure it’s a good Capwise contract value, but guess it works for Lou...
