One would think if Phaneuf can get moved twice that Edmonton could move Lucic.

I'm sure they could....Chiarelli needs to right some wrongs.
You aren't getting any of his horrific trades back, but at least admit defeat and dump nonsense like Lucic and Strome, no matter how that needs to be facilitated.
Eat some salary and move on....those are epic failures.
No way in hell should he be entertaining offers for Nuge, Nurse, etc., because there is no more room for another botched trade.
Either let Chiarelli eat crow and lose the spare tires, or else hire someone who will.....

I think you'd probably get a couple of first rounders a compensation tho

I think 5.7 x 5 years would get us what... A 1st and 3rd, I believe. Either way, 5.7 is too much for Nurse in my opinion.

Oh come on...don’t forget that he “Emerged” this year.

6x6 at a minimum.

I agree, too much for Nurse.

5.7 mill at 4 years is a First, a second and a third.

5.7 mill at 7 years is two firsts, a second and a third.

Something very close to that anyways. I just had a quick peek at the compensation tables.

I'd say don't let the door hit your ass on the way out if some other team put in an offer-sheet for that $$$

He was always decent offensively. This year he has been better defensively. But even still he is a second pair dman. It’s not like he has become some stud on d. He’s not there and may never be more than he is today. Paying for future hopeful progression has got to stop.

This article makes me want to punch puppies... not because Hall is bitter but because of the truth around it.

Just incredibly untalented. She's an American who joined the Hungary team in order to get into the Olympics. She didn't have much competition from Hungary, and the rule was that you'd be eligible to enter the Olympics as long as you had x number of finishes which were better than 30th place... So she raised money on GoFundMe to enter as many contests as possible that had less than 30 competitors. She played the system

Yeah, management and coaching in Edmonton is a cluster-(frank) for sure. He's making millions though... Pretty sad that he wouldn't listen to the coaches, to be honest... Says a lot about his character to me.

I also find it funny that he really wanted to stay, and was pissed when he was traded. Interesting.

This makes me think less of Hall.

Yup.

Hall not wanting to talk to the coaches says a lot about his character in my opinion though... Whether they're idiots or not, he should be willing to talk with them and try to help the team improve.

Chia's brilliant Russel deal really screwed us in contract negotiations with Nurse though, as Nurse is better at every single aspect of the hockey than Russel is.

There was rumours that he had a bad attitude... that wouldn't be shocking, he thought he was a rockstar. In New Jersey 99% of that city has no clue who he is which can be humbling.
