Better than skipping it altogether, but it's a whole lot of effort for a suboptimal result

This is a hybrid. This is a cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus belt that night on this stuff.

Ahhh, Finally we get to the crux of the matter...

I have to laugh, because I've outfinessed myself. My foe, my enemy, is an animal. And in order to conquer an animal, I have to think like an animal, and—whenever possible—to look like one. I've gotta get inside this guy's pelt and crawl around for a few days. Who's the gopher's ally? His friends. The harmless squirrel and the friendly rabbit.

+1 for “suboptimal”

+3 for verbatim recall

hmmm...don't know...there are still teams out there in cap trouble who may need some relief...

still looking at florida...maybe it's wishful thinking, but that bobrovsky contract puts them in a very tough situation

When you sign RFA's to fill out the roster, we're pretty much at the cap. Hopefully more moves coming, but the $ need to be close.

When you get to be my age, and have had sex as often as I have, a nice sponge bath is a close second.

In fact, at my age, a nice sponge bath pretty much •is• sex.

Well done you made me laugh so hard

Buck it, Seedy.

Finding out who destroyed Cheryl's she shed is more important then whatever Beady will bring to the table

They won’t sign all of them
They’ll allow Ellie and maybe Ullmark to become UFA’s.

Don’t know where that leaves the money.

Sponge bath with a happy ending?

That’s part of the standard price.

They should let Ellie walk. But if they don’t sign ullmark who is going to stop the pucks? I think Hutton proved he can’t be a full time starter. Once he hit his 30 game limit he really started to suck

That’s part of the standard price.

Whacking it while getting a sponge bath is probably frowned upon.

Not really counting Elie towards 23. The won't buy him out, so he'll just be in Roch.

On the same note, not going to buyout Ullmark either. He'll be back.

Ullmark didn’t impress me as anything more than entry level backup. Fill in the blank at ELC. Maybe we find this year’s Binnington or Murray from a few years ago.

I agree but we don’t have anyone in the system so it would have to be a UFA. Ullmark is the safer option there.

I thought they could decline the arb award and he becomes UFA.

EDIT: ^^^ this is true

Weird why people thought we could sign Duchene. We have too many bad contexts that need to be addressed

Big trade is yet to come by GMJB, he is not done.
Call it a hunch.

Cal Petersen and Zach Fucale are available I think.

It's true, but the award needs to be over 3.5 (or something close that).

Zach Fucale... I watched him play last year he was ok but not great. And I watched him play for the Fort Wayne Komets of the ECHL. And yes they spelled komets with a K

It's true, but the award needs to be over 3.5 (or something close that).
- Lunaion

Not in the rules I read.

As long as the QO is made and declined the team can walk from the award and the player becomes UFA.

He has balls for asking for a raise when he did absolutely nothing lol

I wonder if Ellie arbitration award would be less than the QO? I am sure that can’t happen but what the hell

Didn’t this happen with Tim Kennedy I can’t remember ? He got $1 million And we had to buy him out
