Who's looking like the villian right now
Habs or pk

i don't see how you can point the finger at one or the other without knowing what was offered. personally, i find it very hard to believe that PK wasn't offered a huge deal. i don't think Bergevin would be (frank)ing around like that.

so does the award come in 48 hours? or can it comes at any time in the next 48 hours, like later today?

Sunday just to make u puke and not poop til then.

"Within 48 hours".

ah. so it's unlikely that a deal would be reached before the announcement.

Bergevin clearly a racist.

No more than what it was till today, unless Bergevin really rips him in the hearing.

I would say 0%. Very disappointing.

In other news, watched The Last Templar last night. What a poopy movie! Only good thing was Mira Sorvino.

I believe the offer would have put him as the highest paid dman in the leauge

God dammit...

i would assume that the hearing is cordial because Bergevin has absolutely nothing to gain by "winning" the settlement.

I'd say it's dependant on how close they were last night. If they were on the verge, then maybe all they need is another 24hours or so.

I would be OK with 4-5 years.

I think 5 years would be perfect.

Oh EK ....

MB's stock is either going to hit an all-time high in my books, or we're in for a bit of a market crash.

We shall wait and see.

All signs point to market crash.

Why? that only ensures you'll be breaking the bank for a 30 year old defenseman on a long term contract down the road...

From the habs perspective, you're looking at 8 years for $72M today...in 5 years from now (if he keeps up the level of play) as a UFA he'd get a lot more than that...likely the equivalent f $11M or $12M in today's money (meaning likely more if cap keeps going up).

Plus, think about it...that's a long term contract for a 30 years old...he'll have 3 or 4 good years left and then you are still paying top dollar on his decline...

So in that time he turns 30 and goes for an even bigger contract
