Had an affair with Miller's wife.

Wouldn't it be great now if Nick Bonino was coming off our books (better yet traded at the deadline), Sutter wasn't here with his stupid contract and we sign Weal who would be a great third line centre going forward!?

If Miller signs with Ana, we need to trade for Lehtonen and a first so Stars have more money for free agency. Lehtonen for a year isn't bad (we will be). Why isn't there more talk of this? GMJB you hear me??!

I'd rather target Detroit for bad goalie contracts. Probably wont get much back in terms of assets in the trade but as a reclamation project Mrazek is young enough to increase his value again

This has been kicked around on this message board since the day Bishop signed, how much more talk could we have on this subject?

VAN cant afford 4 first round picks

But sign him for 9.380, and its 2 firsts, a second and a third..

what team can? I'd do it for Draisitl. back the truck up, that kid is special. Besides, isn't the premise of doing that offer sheet forcing oilers into cap problems? if so, what does it matter?

Mrazek played on a pretty bad team, I wouldn't call his contract bad, he will in all likelyhood bounce back and be good again

Another positive for Cull: Syracuse plays in the same division as Utica, so he has had plenty of opportunity to see the current Comets players.

I am especially curious to see if he'll show more confidence in Jordan Subban next season.

- Carol Schram


I'm curious too.

It seems that Don has some real issues with Jordan. Thinks he would be a huge detriment to this team. I'm curious how Don came up with this idea as well.

He must be an insider or an avid Comets watcher to have such a strong opinion.

Not bad, but Detroit only has $7m in space, $9m tied up in goalies and Coreau got a decent number of games in last year. I dont think they deal Howard, but either of them would fill a tandem role nicely over here IMO

Its a gamble I think other teams might be willing to make for him. He is a pretty special player. Unfortunately it would be a risky play for VAN since the picks would be quite high for a number of those years if EDM walked

He is an incredible player but we can't lose multiple lottery picks. Now a playoff team? Sure, why not.

I'll tell you one thing, you are a detriment to rational thought.

Jordan will make you eat your bigoted words.

I think Mrazek would likely end up starting more games than Marky, and we'd be back in the position of question why we are paying him starter money if he's not the starter

Why are you calling me a bigot? That seems unnecessary. I don't think Subban is ready for the NHL. I am entitled to my opinion as are you.

Well, he's a RFA next year? so any offer would be after the next draft, I expect us to start the slow climb up after next year. Draisitl would gaurantee that. No doubt a very hefty price.

looks like McJesus is getting the McPayday.

Yahoo says 8 year, $106m....that's $13.25m per year, folks!

Max salary for the best player in the league? Sounds reasonable but then you see the number and
