    Can a women with marginal looks make it as a Newscaster or Sportscaster today? Unfortunately, I think not. I know of a few male sportscasters who wouldn't be thought of as handsome. Another double standard I hope will change soon.

    How you dare talk about Farhan Lalji like that!! lol

    id  say hes  worth  6-7m   thats  what you pay   top but  not elite  Wingers,  if he was a center   drop in  1.5 to 2m  more  for same production
    he just  wants out
    5m is   stupid from dorion so is  9m  from stone  camp Id  say   7 is  justified

    I have him down at 6.5.. I hope this doesn't turn into a shit show.

  3. Mark Stone has requested $9 million through salary arbitration.

    The Ottawa Senators put in an offer for $5 million. Sportsnet's Elliotte Friedman pointed out that the largest arbitration award was Shea Weber, who received $7.5 million. The hearing is scheduled for Friday.

    All of these guys had more points in their first full season than Wilson’s career high, which was an anomaly. Iginla got 50 points in his rookie year. Wilson got 35 last year, and that is almost double his career average. 

     

    Maybe Wilson’s 35 points was his breakout. I don’t think he’ll do more than that. 

    The point was.. all those guys are power forwards and started to bloom late.  I was in no way saying that Tom Wilson is going to be the next Cam Neely. 

    45 points and all those peripherals isn't a bad contract for 5 mill. Of course it could be better but you're not getting that kind of cross category production out of anyone else in the league at that high of a level.

  5. As well I remember another big boy. No messing around type power forward. A little less on the shenanigans and PIM's. Took him a while to find his rhythm. He was 24 before he broke loose and had a couple of back to back 40 point seasons prior to breaking out. John Leclair.

     

    Then I did a little google stuff.

    Tocchet 23

    Bertuzzi 25

    Iginla - although he was way more talented and showed more younger. He didn't bust loose until 24.

    Neely -21 . 4 seasons it took probably the best to ever be a power forward to cut loose. 

     

    These guys take time.

    kucherov signs  at 4.9   at 23 year old  after    a  66 and 65 pts  season
    Wilson ....

    Kucherov was a deal and a half . He could have easily went for 6 mill plus and 6 years. Instead now he's going to get 8 - 10 mill and 8 years.

    It was savvy business on his part and Yzermans part.

  7. I don't know man. The guy came straight out of the OHL. Was a first round draft pick. Has consistently gotten better and better. Had a monster playoff. I think he's just hitting his stride. 45 points and another cup run doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility.

    He's a game changer. A huge presence on the ice. And he just generally smashes opponents.  

     

    I think that's a top end contract for a 24 year old that plays his style game.

     

    If he finds some kind of scoring touch this will be a steal. Playing with Ovie and Kuznetsov could do that.

    NYI. No goalie and No Tavares. That team just took a huge step back.

    They're weak in the middle. Sad on the wings and the D ain't scrap. Just lost De Haan .

  10. The news today has made the Presidency seem common. The seat should be respected regardless of a persons political standpoint.

    If the leader of your country asks you to come and be honored, you go and be honored. 

     

    I'm not a fan of Trudeau. If I was asked to come to Ottawa and and take part in anything. No questions asked. I would go.

    It's my country and I support it. 

     

    The use of sports teams. Actors. Anybody with any type of fame by our political parties is nothing more than a kissing baby photo op. Used to manipulate. It shouldn't be the case .
