You're contradicting yourself. You didn't think the Leafs would be in the top 4 for teams swining the biggest moneycock? Everyone knows that.

Figured the money cock's would be more or less equal. And buffalos offer was equal so we hear. I'm glad Edmonton bowed out early.

Yeah, I want Holmgren because he's available. I also wanted Hitchcock as our head coach. Preferably I'd like to have Holland as our GM, but he's not available. Babcock had the success he had because of Holland.

Because you would prefer Katz to spend his money on some new original Rembrandt paintings for the guest house on his ranch?

Nope. Its negotiable. They may have to. May not.
- Iggysbff


yes they have to.. the negotiable point is which one

Since McLellan had a year remaining on his contract with the Sharks, and since the Oilers will be bringing him into the fold during the offseason, San Jose is eligible to receive a third round selection in one of the next three entry drafts of Edmonton's choosing. Draft pick compensation for teams who see coaches, GMs or other executives hired away from them hasn't been enforced in the NHL since 2006 but an agreement earlier this year brought it back into implementation.

Babcock is a cool idea, I'd love to see him prove me wrong....but I don't think he's ever taken a garbage team and turned them around into a contender.

Pegula's a billionaire. The difference is he would be spending his own money. MLSE would be spending a portion of the profits they make from the team. Anyone thinking any other team/owner would be willing to pay a coach more than MLSE if they really wanted him would be flat out wrong. I've been saying this for the past year.
