And more than likely all the draft picks will be very late... Weber going to Philly ??? Man that'll be one tough team if it happens!!

And nashville gets to rebuild again ,they need to keep him or be the montreal expo,s of hockey

i really don't have any feelings one way or another. Pacioretty was deserving. so was Lupul. it went the way it did. you can't really quantify either comeback. they were completely different scenarios.
- DoubleDown

Only that Lupul's situation was potentially career ending AND LIFE THREATENING!

Meanwhile, Pacioretty was out a few days later with his supposed "severe concussion" going to movies and sitting in a darkened room and staring brightly lit screen for 3 hours when light sensitivity is a symptom of "severe concussions" ... (If you actually have one)

Pacioretty won that award not because he was deserving, but because of the media sh!t storm that incident generated and the NHL wanted to put a positive spin on a bad situation and hopefully find some closure.

It's a joke and you know it.

The approval of a contract is based upon the contingency of a unilateral agreement with management, league headquarters, and hb...Aricle 5.3 subsection e4...

I know but people think RFA's still have contracts with their old teams or something. They don't....they want a contract. It's the old teams own fault if they wait for another team that really wants them to offer them a contract.

This is the part that must sting to nashville fans ,they either pony up huge dollars or expect less than market value on a star player like weber

Yup. And the ridiculous signing bonus makes it impossible for Nashville to match and trade Weber after a year.

No one would pay around 20M for a year than trade the guy. It's absurd.

Nice job by Philly really.

You may be rightl, or not, and to be honest I don't care.

The Masterton is supposed to be about dedication to the sport. Not "best comeback from injury".

It's been ridiculous for years and it would have been as ridiculous if Lupul won it.

You either didn't understand my post or are a troll.

Either way. Nice day sir.

You don't have to be a jackass about it. I see now, he would only do it after warning/consulting the other GM first. That's why he was so pissed at Lowe - felt he was blindsided.

Why wouldn't Nashville have extended him years ago? They're treating him like sh*t...

He's a crafty little GM. A couple more years and alot of these prospects could be the real deal. Along with the core of Joey Bats, Encarnacion,Lawrie and our young pitchers

i can't. because i really don't care.

i'm just happy he won it because the complaining from Leaf fans has been entertaining.

Lupul's condition wasn't life/career threatening?
Severe concussions don't lead to sensitivity to light?
Montreal(and the rest of the province) doesn't have insane reactions to mundane things?

By signing that slanted contract ,it pretty much says that he never wanted to resign in nashville for the long term,hense the issue with getting him locked up
