They just need to find a team that will accept to take on Callahan's contract.... and maybe even one more salary.

I could see the Habs getting picks and a young player to take it on easily.
- Scabeh

Why would the Habs help Tampa? Is it simply to hurt Ottawa?

Maybe if Tampa gives you Callahan, Palat and Cal Foote for a 4th rd pick?

don't see matthews signing for less than than 12.5 mcdavid got

Will Mathews be the guy who wants to be the highest payed on his team? I really don't know enough about him to say for sure.

Is that the avatar you were given?

Matthews: "I really pushed hard to get Tavares here.. I want to win here.. Tavares will help us reach our goal.. I think it's a good idea for Tavares to be the next Captain of the Maple Leafs, he's earned that right. Lastly, pay me bltches.....Who gives a frank about the Leafs. I needs to be paid"

well (frank) nj and nyr for helping make TB better

whatchu talkin bout Garnie?
- senstroll

The graph sheet you posted showing cap space...can't we just have some nice #'s written down in order of cap space 1-31

It wouldn't let me quote you.

I haven't looked at their cap projections, but I was under the impression that they could ice the same team this year as last.

With as good as they've been, I don't know if I'm tinkering that much. You get to a point where you start meddling with a good thing and all of a sudden you've upset the balance, chemistry, and you're worse off than you were.
- gravyface

Bah, removing Callahan and somehow adding Karlsson would be a huge plus. No way around it.

You can shelter the same percentage of your income as your faceoff win percentage. That's why every April I dress up a homeless guy in hockey gear and head down to H&R Block.

- PatC80

Yes, that's the point.

If Tampa gives me Cal Foote and a pick to take on Callahan, You do it. We have unused cap space for a few years anyway.

take it with a grain of salt.

that and i can't see zajac (or really, anyone) waiving their ntc to go to ottawa.

twitter rumor last night:

tb: karlsson

nyr: callahan

What do the Rangers get for taking Callahan?

TB only has to give up Sergachev for EK

What is Jersey getting for taking Ryan?

hmmmmm,

Yes, that's the point.

Callahan has a NTC and hes injured so he cant be bought out. Apparently the rangers didnt want to give back the Tampa first round pick

their are minor missing pieces. i imagine something like a 2nd and 4th to take on callahan.

sergachev++ to TB.

jersey dumps zajac for ryan.

It's a Sens fan wet dream, it makes no sense.

crazy....we'll see what happens.

Montreal will be back in the playoffs in 3 years.

my

words.

In the meantime, we'll suck and draft talented players.
- Scabeh

In 3 years price will be playing like raycroft and webber will need 2 new knees. Good luck

Who the (frank) are you?

Bah, removing Callahan and somehow adding Karlsson would be a huge plus. No way around it.
- Scabeh

Agree, but removing Callahan will cost, acquiring EK will cost, and cheapo Eugene Smellsh!t wants Duh-rion to include Bobby Ryan in the deal. I would say this deal is complex with Tampa, Las Vegas if EK is willing could offer some return and will take Bobby Ryan's bad contract. Way fewer obstacles IMO. San Jose is also an easier fit.

Auston Matthews............incognito.

Agreed.

And Callahan's NTC complicates things.

swapping one problem for another is not uncommon. you do that and get no further ahead or waste good draft picks.

no good options when it comes to bad contracts.

Sure.... but Zajac costs less, for less time and is still a decent third/2nd centre option for the Devils....

Bobby Ryan and his contract is a complete mess.

Bobby can play wing for 30-50 games and also train the med staff on how to treat broken fingers...win/win.
