Won't be Doug Wilson's problem when he's fired in 2 years after not winning the Cup.

Doug Wilson is one of best 5 GMs in the league.

Rob Blake proving that Pierre Dorion is not, in fact, the worst GM in the game.

What'd Blake do? I've been in a self induced NHLless coma since late Wednesday

Looks like karlsson is staying in sj. 8 years north of 11 million according to Lebrun

It better be insured

Think he bought out Phaneuf?

But that's not really a bad move so I don't know if something else happened recently.

Using the cap space gained from buying out Dion Phaneuf to trade for Patrick Marleau?

I think it's a mix up between Blake being the kings GM and not the sharks.

If this Karlsson deal is real anyone on the sharks worth looking at?

My sources tell me Erik Karlsson's decision was between the Sharks and Senators, but he had to ultimately go with San Jose once Eugene Melnyk clarified that his offer was $11.45M total and not per year

they will probably see their ufa's walk.

donoski is a decent forward...if we trade a forward or 2, he may be a good replacement.

tim heed is a 6/7 rhd dman.

I think he'd be a great fit here, but I could see a team overpaying for Donskoi.

Minnesota needs to shake things up. Nylander, Kapanen, a 3rd to MIN for Staal, Dumba. Leafs would have much better C options, especially winning draws on the 2nd line if Tavares gets thrown out. Staal is a stud and will kill penalties and can play through the lineup. Kadri gets his minutes back and would love to play with JT.

Johnsson Matthews Marner
Kadri Tavares Mikheyev/Bracco
Hyman Staal Korshkov
Moore Petan Marchment

Rielly Dumba
Muzzin Rosen
Hainsey Sandin
Liljegren (Dermott hurt)

Wouldn't you trade for a big D too? I know I would..

At least he got the other guy to retain on his contract.

Doesn't that stick to Ottawa's CAP longer now that he's been bought out?

and the sens still have gaborik for a couple more years.

lol @ sens.

They are saying up to 2 million people for the parade, and a buddy of mine watching it said he would take the Over.

That is incredible.

They don't pay a cent on his deal due to insurance and it helps them hit the cap floor.

Not lol worthy. Smart management for a guy dealing with a cheapskate.

Alright, I'll give this 1 an 8 out of 10 also.

they're still on the hook for 30% or so. the nhl insurance policy does not cover 100% of player salaries.

smrt managment would have seen them taking back an asset or 2 for gaborik.
