Yeah the guy known for having wildly inconsistent production is definitely reliable and will 100% continue to score at a rate rivaling the greatest players of all time.
- BINGO!

It's his UFA year, he's healthy and he's playing with an elite player.

always been one of my favorites, just not vs the NYR

I like it too.

Not as much as a Montreal vs Toronto matchup though.

Honestly, i dont care for either anymore. Im bored with both "rivalries".

Lip reading here, but Namestnikov seems to have shouted "лысый белый трах" which is loosely, "Balding white whale" in meaning.

Almost like he used his NMC so that he could land in this exact situation and cash in huge

What the (frank) is going on?

I hopped on over to the Buffalo News.

Apparently he got in the coach's doghouse for lackadaisical play, and pouted. And then really pouted. And then threw a hissy fit.

He hasn't reported to the team for a few days.

What kinda sucks from a Leafs perspective is the Sabres are going to be able to terminate his contract and suffer no cap hit.

Oh well. Another wacky day with the NHL CBA.

I'm waiting for the Kings to pay for their 3 or 4 mutually terminated deals that have kept them afloat with Kovalchuk not playing ball with that douchebag.

It kinda sounded like he was saying; "ты толстый и ты выглядишь смешно" Which means you are fat and you look funny

It's unfortunate that Marleau acted that way as well on July 2nd, 2019

The guy never wanted to go to Buffalo anyway, as I recall he was traded one day before his NTC kicked in. I would be pissed too.

Marleau isn't doing that, it isn't even a bad joke.

Nah. No way he agrees to that one.

For sure he is. Ain't no way he's playing for the Leafs next year. He'll probably enjoy being an amateur scout in Saskatchewan for a year making 4mil

He's not moving back here, either.

Not a (frank)ing chance. Dude comes out every summer sort of thing and that's about it.

Only way Marleau is not playing next season is if he wins a Stanley Cup with Leafs this year.

has to be something along those lines... why else would a guy like Berglund walk away from 3M+ for the next 3-4 years

I thought heard/read somewhere that the agent never gave his list of teams he couldn’t be traded to in time.

Also does he think he can sign another deal with an nhl team? Letting 12 million go over ice time makes him look like an idiot. Can’t see another gm handing out a contract to him.

He can scout wherever he wants for 4 mil per year. Think that (frank)er wants to be taking ice baths between periods when he's 42, playing on a team that's not gonna win the cup? Can't see it.

They'll just terminate like other teams are doing. Lose Gardiner and Nylander? Or just Marleau?

Buffalo places him on waivers 'with the intent to terminate his contract'.
Surely NHLPA would want to have a quick discussion on that one - surely he won't lose his 12million easily.

If he plays out this season, he needs 111 more games to break Gordie's record. You don't think that would be enough to convince him to want to play for another year and a half?
