Jean-François "J. F." Sauvé is a former professional ice hockey centre. He played in the National Hockey League with the Buffalo Sabres and Quebec Nordiques.
Sorry Veg, your totals just tanked.

Their offer came 400k under the next compensation level bracket and their was still another level up to the max bid. I like the offer sheet but it feels like in reality, there is not a 1% chance that it doesn't get matched. And if that is in fact the case, then what was it all for then. I say PR.

Bergevin is funny saying that Aho wants to be in Montreal. He may but part of me thinks Aho signed it because the Canes weren’t offering the salary he wanted and this got him there and he also preferred a 5 year deal to a 7/8 year deal. Also, this sets up Aho nicely with a potential lockout coming up because I believe he would still receive bonus money during the lockout just not salary.
I agree. My feeling is that this offer was too light on compensation to really have a chance. It feels like Bergevin is preparing his alibi for any questions about Montreal's inability to land any difference makers in the free agent sweepstakes this year......"Hey look, we really tried hard...".
I say they could've tried harder

Not thrilled about losing Shaw. He had a jam about his game that could be quite useful in the playoffs. At 3.9 he wasn't too pricey either

I think some NHL trades are starting to look more like a trade you'd see in Capwise leagues. It's about time they caught on.

It means Montreal wasn't the only team that soured on Subban. Probably wont be the last either.
-
And so then by my understanding, the better teams would have a shot at the lottery rather than the truly shittiest teams. What am I missing?

Skinner, Karlsson and now Hayes. Three guys that will not be signed to my fantasy team anytime soon, barring a stint as an IR replacement. Even then it's unlikely . Can't wait to see the next overpriced contract.

I'm not overly fond of strictly offensive players that are a liability otherwise. Because most of the time, they aren't scoring. So most of the time, they are irritating to watch.

Drouin has yet to learn to keep his stick on the ice. This is something you're taught in novice. If you carry your stick a foot off the ice at all times, how can you ever make progress on the defensive side of the puck. He's a toolbag.

Do the Oilers find a way to sign him??

10% or less, I'd say. Exactly 0% that he signs before July 1.

I think Sens did well here. A 1st, a good prospect in Abramov only one year out of junior, and a conditional 1st. Jackets paid a steep price for a rental imho.
100% agree, they aren't that close, imo.

With Toronto and Montreal having gone 40 years since their last playoff match-up, I can't hope for anything else, regardless of the outcome. Over the years my lust for watching the game has diminished and the thought of watching that series is giving me butterflies.

Well I don’t mind the Leafs protecting their branding as much as possible. They have that right. And actually Toronto is a pretty cool city. Great restaurants, entertainment, cultural diversity and lots to do.
But what’s really cool about Toronto is that just 6 days ago they went into the Habs’ barn only 1 point ahead of them, beat them in OT and are now 6 points up. Even # of games played. Nothing square about that my friends. Pretty pretty pretty cool!
Ugh

Looks like the tribe has spoken.....the NEW live scoring suddenly bears a strong resemblance to the OLD.

I just don't see how they view this as an upgrade. The old live scoring was 100% user friendly and checking multiple leagues was one click and 1 second away. Just a terrible idea to change it IMO.
