And my point flew over your head. We can’t fit Marky under the cap. Minimum 5 years and $6MM per. Goodbye Marky 👋🏼

It didn't fly over - I just don't believe it's as throw away as you're making it out to be.

If they want him bad enough they'll have to find ways to move out $$/contracts - its not impossible and its not a horrible idea. It's fawking risky tho, i'll give you that. So many factors/pros/cons.

I still feel a bit breathless after last night. It was incredible.

The new blog is up now, so please head on over...

if anyone truly believes you can trade your #1 two weeks before the TDL, in a playoff race, while currently in 1st place - they need to delete their account/life and start watching darts

So let him walk then trade now, or trade at the draft?

I agree with what you said "My guess is he will start 4 years x 7.0 mil, and with comparisons, he is not off, IMO.
Will he settle for 4 years at 5.5 to 6 mil?. Do we want that with the issues it would create?
Anybody thinking in the 4 to 5 mill range is dreaming, once again IMO."

I think timing wise - he's untradable. Either he signs or he walks

I don’t actually want to trade Markstrom, or think that the Canucks could or would. I’m just laughing at the yahoos who think he is going to sign a short term deal for the same $ he’s making now. You people should be deleting your life. If Benning hadn’t handcuffed himself to a lead chest in a leaky boat, they would have no trouble getting their goalie locked up.
