Agree to disagree. I still think we'll have too much of our roster filled out by guys who'd struggle to find playing time on a team with decent depth.

That's fine, we don't all have to agree on here lol. Thanks for keeping it polite.

L_B_R = Laugh, Breath, Relax??

I only put this out there because it kind of goes with how you post. Down to Earth, and not an alarmist in either direction. You don't let anyone rile you up!

By the way, I think you are one of the best posters using stats and analytics to prove your points. Of course, I haven't ever checked your stats, but I will give you the benefit of the doubt.

Bill Foley says Vegas signed two restricted free agents during their exclusive negotiating period.

Evander Kane has a similar cap hit also for one more year. I think he would have a greater impact and is apparently on the block. If Sabres retain some salary, he could be a nice 1 year stop gap.

E. Kane is the only rumor the Blackhawks are mentioned in by the usual rumor pushers.

I have a hard time believing the Blackhawks are pulling out of a deal they agreed to weeks ago. Just wouldn't be good for business in the future.

Jordan did that in 1997 - didn't work out that well.

Oh nice, solid 3rd liner. Depending on the contract cost, that's a great pick up.

Agree to agree to disagree...maybe a few of them, but agree with LBR, Shmaltz is definitely an NHL player and I'm looking forward to his further development this year.

Hear CLB player is indeed William Karlsson. FLA appears to be Jonathan Marchessault. LV has also apparently acquired a haul of draft picks.

Those guys will be easy to flip is Vegas wants that.

Here we are with the most recent updates. Vegas is stocking up on defence. No Mrazek is shocking. Lots of information still unknown.

Bill Daly says the NHL still has to evaluate whether Marian Hossa can be placed on LTIR next season. No timetable for that decision.

Gary Bettman says the NHL has no reason to suspect anything is "amiss" with Marian Hossa's contract/health situation.


Not having the Hoss sucks. What a crappy day this has been.

NHL has to evaluate whether it wants to Richard over a franchise again for making a move that was actually legal when it was made.

This hard salary cap (as opposed to a soft cap) is destroying the league. That and garbage officiating in the playoffs.
