Ek needs to update his cap central...

Only current roster player i would be interested in from them is Faulk.

Looking at the Canes cap situation, there is no way they would even think about getting in on Letang. They have less cap space then the Pens, plus will have to give Faulk and Tlusty good size raises next offseason.

Obviously I forgot about that extension but do you think Rutherford has any remorse over it?

13 goals and 24 points in 42 games doesn't equate to an almost 6 million dollar player.

He should just have a link to cap geek great website.

Wouldn't be surprised if there is actually some meat behind the ongoing rumor of Skinner to the Rags for Staal.

Rangers sign Vigneault as new coach

Streit signs with Philly.....4 year deal.

4 years?! He'll be nearly 40 by then. Well done!

$5M for Gonchar, $5.5 for Streit...you think Letang's gonna take a discount at $6-6.5?

They are only 7 million over the cap now

No I don't and I never did. Letang will get 8 if he hits FA.

Unreal.

Be great if Streit retires July 6th this year. ha

Yeah, that Streit signing pretty much doomed any chance of Letang taking a discount. Penguins fans now have a reason to watch the first day of the draft.

Sorry, didn't mean you personally, just in general to all.

That's where Holmgren will be living in a month.

I know, just saying.

Earlier cap1681 speculated Letang for Erikkson and another from Dallas. Any remote possibility or alteration to the suggestion there?

That's pretty much a dream. Always though Erikkson would be a good fit on Sid's wing. Plus, i like their young d-man Dillon. Big, physical, stay at home d-man who showed promise this season.

Not the worst contract, but we didn't get a deal either. The $22m number isn't confirmed to me until McKenzie says it. I worry about that 35+ rule.

Dreger reporting its 4 years, 21 mil. 5.25 cap hit. A little better, but still not a great contract.

I meant if Streit retires in a couple weeks as the poster I quoted suggested.

Try and keep up.

That term on an over 35 contract is not good, any way you want to slice it.

A canadian team: Edmonton or Vancouver.

Vancouver DOESN'T have the goods to acquire Letang.
