I love having goaltending depth, really do, but in a cap world, you just can't be afraid to move a backup goalie for asset(s) when you aren't in the playoffs

Is it a tough call? Sure. I don't dispute that's one of those things that bites you in the rear from time to time. But in a cap world, you just can't be scared to make those kinds of calls, because there are limitations in how you get better and if someone offers you a set of assets you can use to get better, you have to be willing to pull that particular trigger

Agreed. I just think it's the best time to move him. His value will never be better.

+1 for Blazing Saddles

Needs context though. This is a team forum

He has schedule A and schedule B bonuses (plural). If he finished top 10 in assist, he doesn't automatically get the entire 1.725M in his schedule B bonuses. I'm not sure what the max bonus per category is for schedule B bonuses, but for schedule A its 215k per category. Category means for goals, or assists, or games played, etc. so for example you can have a bonus of 100k for scoring 10 goals and then an additional bonus of 115k if you reach 20 and then that's the max bonuses you can give for goals.

He leads the forum in controlled entries against, just like his hero.

And, apparently, game misconducts

Guys, I decided something. I want Nylander over Tkachuk. Ok, everyone can go back to what they were doing.

Oh damn his schedule B bonus is all in one.

Hawks are more screwed then McDonaghs jaw right now. But they've been screwed since like 2010 and have won 2 more cups since then.

Lose for Laine

I think he heard he got a month. For what exactly I don't know.

At this point I think his bans are going to be pretty lengthy. It's like he's Raffi Torres.

i'd like him in the lineup tonight. that's me.
- hammarby31

For tonight, I'd rather have Morin

Lose for Laine
- Giroux_Is_God

Well, yeah. But if the Flyers finish 7th or something, Nylander is a good target or a target for a not-so-costly trade up. I really like his game, and I think he can be a line driver, unlike a Tkachuk who is more a star wingman.

+/- is about as fancy as eating at Golden Corral for a Sunday family get-together.

Now, COMBINED +/- is top hat and coattails level poop.

Throw my hat into the "Trade Neuvirth to the Habs or some poop for a first rounder then trade our 2 firsts and a 2nd package picks in with like Laughton or Sanheim or some poop for #2 overall" go big or go the (frank) home.

my gf surprised me yesterday and took me into old city to drink. Went to this lounge. Pretended we were fancy for the night.

I owe her all the things.

The Devils score 2 goals in regulation this weekend, start Keith Kinkaid against the Kings, and come way with 4 points this weekend. Absolutely (frank)ing pathetic!

Habs ain't trading their first. They're in the lottery sweepstakes w/ Price out for the year, and they don't need a goalie long term. They are almost certain to draft top ten or so. Plus I think Bergevin is stealth tanking or Therrien would've been fired by now. I read Canadiens fans ripping him left and right.

And if the Flyers draft top ten, I'd rather just keep that pick, a possible late first, and Sanheim. I love Laine, but that's just too much.

They're a hard working and well coached team

I said Habs or some poop yo doesn't have to be them they're just the first team I thought of with a poopty goalie situation

EDIT: But I'm usually with you on the "just keep the picks it's not worth it" mindset but I just...he's (frank)ing good.

Devils wins again with only 18 shots

There is that. Personally I think what's he's doing is the most impressive of anyone. Points aren't the only thing to consider in the Calder race. I think it's a three horse race between Ghost, Larkin and Panarin. I'd giving Larkin the slightest of edges probably.
