Cory Conacher signs with Tampa Bay.

As of now, Ben Bishop was traded in return for a 4th round pick

The pick was used to draft a player better than Mitch "The Saviour" Marner.

Actually it was used to pick Tobias Lindberg

So essentially, the Sens parlayed Ben Bishop into Dion Phaneuf's left nut

to be honest, I think Halak is as good a goalie as Andersen.. (or better..).
why wouldn't you want to have one of them backing up Andersen though?

The fact that I could see Garf doing that, makes this post oh so much more disturbing.

Marner has bonus clauses.

Matthews will get bonus clauses.

The hold up is the Leafs waiting until they are closer to "done" this summer so they know exactly what their cap looks like.

- Aetherial

From what I read, Marner signed late because of the bonus issues, and Lou gave him some bonuses because he wasn't the one who started negotiations.

But with the Leafs it's all heresay

Not sure why a backup tender is such a big deal. Anderson is our guy going forward. Sign a 1 milly vet and lets move on with our summer. Get Matthews signed, FFS...

More like Marchand and the lackadaisical refs. Sedin's still have PTSD when they see big schnozed midgets.

Halak has been having a lot groin/injury issues lately and wonder how long he would last.
