Because LOOK AT THE MARKET. What are similar players going for? DUH! Other than goalie, the price is being set. If Bowman gets way less then he failed, period.

So theoretically there two interested teams, Colorado offers a fourth, Carolina offers a fifth, Chicago takes the fourth, you’re telling me that’s on Bowman?

Great hustle by Carolina, winning all the 50-50 puck battles and limiting shots against that emergency goalie.

Since I have been watching the Leafs have managed 2-3 shots. Canes are smothering them

The Leafs' d is far worse than the Hawks. Murphy and Keith are better than anyone playing. Maatta and Muzzin are about equal. Holl gets the edge over Gus. Special K

Sandin and Boqvist are a wash. I have no idea what has happened to Dermott cause I liked him but he seems to have regressed this season

Dermott has regressed, no idea why?

Not as much as me!

This game is the highlight of the season for me.

6 SOGs so far in the 3rd.

Dermott hasnt been the same since shoulder surgery last year.

Bean would be solid, so would Bokk or Suzuki.
- DarthKane

If there is a Lehner/Gustafsson package sent to Carolina, I would also be on board with Bean, Suzuki, and one of their 2020 1sts plus one of Mrazek or Reimer if needed to make it work.

Then re-sign Crawford for 1-2 seasons at say $4M. Next season's goalies would then be Crawford + Mrazek/Reimer at $7.1-$7.4M total. This buys another year for Delia, Lankinen, and Tomkins to develop another season.

Btw, Tomkins got in a goalie fight tonight during a line brawl between the Hogs and Admirals (Preds farm team). Lots of bad blood between these two squads that's been brooding all season.

I hope Ayers is one of the stars

You're already in "Defend Bowman" mode, grats.

If you honestly think getting crap for a legit solid pro goalie is "the best deal" then your lips are so attached to Bowman's ass we may need to call in the jaws of life to remove them.

At least HawkInD and Mohel pretend legitimacy while pandering to Bowman's cause.
- kwolf68

Wolfie, I've been nice to you, and you're going with cheap shots. I see how it is.

Can you tell me what Stan should do if the highest offer for Gus is a 3rd? "Get a better offer" is not a legit answer - teams bid against each other.

Your Stan hate is showing through and affecting your logical abilities.

What a great defensive period - Ayers made a couple of nice saves, but the Canes were just smothering.

Lehner, Gus for 1st, 2nd, and top prospect

Then re-sign Lehner in the offseason.

Either Babcock screwed him up early in the year or he's putting pressure on himself because he's an upcoming UFA.

Dermott is a RFA after this season.

Ridiculous response. All teams know who is available and are bidding against each other at the TDL. THAT is the market in question, not the market for another player.

No

Loved the reactions. The bum TVR out there with Slavin to close out the game. TVR looks bigger

He's been eating a lot of BBQ. And lifting buckets filled with cement.

Bowman is going to bleed this through all the way till Monday unless a team blows him away. He takes the best offer given...

The reaction was great. If the Leaves were paying attention they’d see how you beat a team without expecting the goalie to do everything. I thought TVR looked really big too.

not much gramps, just enjoying the conversation.

He followed the JJ twenty lbs of muscle regime that Kruger never bought in to.
