I'm not sure exactly what Cooper and Yzerman were thinking throughout this whole thing....

they have some good players they will need to resign but I don't see one of them of the caliber of Stamkos... Hedman may be as valuable but (frank) right off with Bishop and Johnson and Palat you can replace those guys it's tough to replace a guy like Stamkos

Kucherov is close but still no Stamkos.

Bergy should offer sheet kucherov

That's what happens when you give 7 year deals/take them on to poop stains like Callahan/Filpulla/Cobourn/Carle.
- AdamFrench

HOLY poop!!!

just checked his deal out wtf?!?!?!?!?! LOOOOOOL

do you have any (frank)ing idea how hard that is?!?!?!


the paper work alone!!!!

BTW, my source says that Weise will NOT sign in Montreal.
- hscesq

My only good source is someone high in management working for the Bell Centre (not the Habs).

Guys.... Weise is in MTL.

He is considered a Hawk player, so MB will be all over him. And Ladd.

It is gonna happen.
- Mashadar

I hope Ladd is gonna happen

Ever heard of the salary cap? There's only that much money that can be spent....
- Scabeh

Yes, but you won't win with one player taking up 1/7 of the teams salary

I'm sure one of the six assistant GM can fill a PDF form. Or else sign a new assistant GM, vp of logistics

Kinda like pittsburgh and Chicago?

is it one of those forms where you hit that and it automatically goes to the next field or do you have to use the mouse?

if it's the mouse then count them OUT!

That's not the point, you said him getting 12M would "destroy the league". Which made no sense.

Except none of those players make 12 million and they have 2 or 3 stars. Stamkos is going to be the only star anywhere he goes.

The source is legit. You may even know him.
- hscesq

God I hope they're right

- cburgess

if he goes to Toronto they have 12 top forwards and 6 defensemen who could be 1st pairing on any other team.

also Andersen.

They need Julien Brisebois back.

Sorry, Dale.

- cburgess

Malkin & Crosby: $10M each
Kane and Toews: $10M each

Stamkos at 12 and some other star at 8...that's $20M... same as 2x 10M... you can make that work...

10.5.

And when crosby and Malkin signed that deal the cap was much lower

Malkin & Crosby: $10M each
Kane and Toews: $10M each

Stamkos at 12 and some other star at 8...that's $20M... same as 2x 10M... you can make that work...

sadly I think the best guy to move right now is probably Price.

you can't trade subban with that contract and this team has so many holes all over the place that Price is the only hope for filling some of them. You can get a good goalie for about 6M which is probably half of what Price will be making 2 years from now

Crosby 8.7 and Malkin 9.5.

There's still Zetterberg in Detroit...Buffaloand Toronto have some very good young players with star potential.

Sorry, Dale.

Can't trade Subban with that contract?? Dude 20 teams called Bergevin at the draft for Subban.

I agree...

Murray and Jones...
a few years back, Crawford, then Quick...

All unknown goalies who came out of nowhere...it's easier to find a good goalie than to find scoring. Will that goalie be as good as Price? no...but Price hasn't gotten us a cup on his own, and he can't...(by no fault of his own...he just can't score goals).
