i'm guessing at least 38 backup games

Then I say 92 pts

I think the Leafs will just miss or just squeak in. Mcdavid
is not going to be wearing a Leaf jersey without a trade, that's
for sure.

Wait...so you're saying there's a chance at a trade?

(frank)ing right! Just heard the Leafs won't hold back for the McDavid pick! Guy was saying Leiweke will eat so much salary and take back 3 years worth of it just to get it done.

Subban gets 10 million.

He deserves 8.


Simmons had a good "Thumbs Up and Thumbs Down" bit. Makes sense.

Steve Simmons, Sun Media: My thumb is down to the passivity of NHL general managers, who are sometimes too polite for their own good. The GMs missed out on the opportunity to make an offer to restricted free agent PK Subban and now that Subban has filed for arbitration, his rights are protected by Montreal for the coming season. But if I'm a GM, I would have made a monstrous offer to Subban, more than $10 million a year, and not just because he was the only game changing player available. I look at this two ways. If I throw huge money at Subban, I have a shot to get him - albeit it's a long shot. And if Montreal matches, which is usually the way these things go, then I'm messing up their payroll. Either way, I have nothing to lose. Even if the GMs don't agree.

Im curious...why does the Habs payroll get messed up because of the offer sheet if they match, but if a team offer sheeted him and got him...no mention is made of their cap now being messed up. Furthermore, how is the draft pick compensation not entered into this analysis?

Signing a player to a 10 million dollar contract, and paying 4...FOUR.. first round picks is a no lose no situation? Really?

Simmons simmons simmons, you're an idiot, but you don't know it....so it's okay.

i think he's basing it on florida, buffalo, ottawa and edmonton making the offers

teams no one gives a sh*t about

His thinking is that the Habs would be forced to sign him.



But, dafuq if they didn't?


Damn, 4 1sts.


So who knows?

And those bottom feeding teams are going to pay four 1st round picks for one guy in the hopes, not guarantee, but the hopes of that one guy turning their whole franchise around? Sens are too cheap, and the other teams would be in cap hell.

That's the dumbest thing from you yet. Wouldn't it make sense if he's basing it off of LA, Chicago, PItts and Boston?


GIve them 4 straight years of 1st rounders because those teams are built to get into and passed the 1st round of the playoffs.
