Nylander:

Trade him after his 2020-21 bonus is paid out, and a team gets him for 4 years with an average actual salary average of $3.875M per year.

Holy frank. That's got to tempt some small-market teams.

If that is what you got from that then you don't deserve a response.

Get educated, your posts have been awful on every level.

You must be a treat to live with, unless you live alone which would make a lot of sense.

I don't think you understand how much money the NHL is losing.

You realize how much revenue teams have lost already right? Teams are making budget cuts based off the 10 games and playoffs lost revenue already. Next year will be another year of massive lost revenue.

You are in for a treat if you don't think over half the league are making budget cuts.

- Santo_44

Teams are cutting off ice operations, exec pay cuts, etc.... maybe they do make some player trades based on money alone, but someone has to be on the other side to take the contract. The league also has rules around lopsided trades and has stopped deals in some cases because of this.

Kampala Harris next VP of the US

really hope Biden doesn't win this.
Trump is a friggin trainwreck, but can't have a senile President with clear anti-Russian sentiments for 1-2 years (he wouldn't finish his term) there.
I'm in Europe and not fond of having a Ukraine war starting in 2021/2022.

Another heartwarming story of an 8 year that cops try to handcuff in school because he was “acting out”. He was special needs, substitute teacher didn’t know and when she tried to contain him physically he didn’t react well, they called the cops who tried to cuff him.

The handcuffs fell off because he was too small.

This is actually the perfect case to explain what "defunding the police" actually means.

Cops should not be showing up for these calls.

Social workers trained in how to deal with 8 year olds should be sent there.

In a weird sort of way, I feel sorry for the cops - they are trained to restrain violent offenders. That's what they did. Nobody trained them how to deal with an 8 year old with special needs.

should have called in the school nurse. a lot of schools have those. look at the kids medical records if he's special need.

cops should be unnecessary in this situation

I can always look at electronic records of my bank account - that gives a pretty good indication of how much money they are sucking out of me.

It’s the school that (frank)ed up and the system that puts cops there I agree.

the system puts cops in a bad position. should have had a counselor, social worker, or school nurse there to deal with the special need child...

this has been tried for years.
social workers only making things worse - constantly coming up with excuses for the bad mannered kids and their families.
you have to set priority to take care of the other normal kids in class - can't have a (frank)ing bad mannered kid take over the whole class dynamics. doesn't matter if the kid is 6-7-8 y old - swearing and hitting a teacher means he should be banned from that school.

According to NHL.com the leafs were bigger than CLB.

The idea that CLB is some big fore-checking, hitting machine is nonsense. What they did was shut down the neutral zone to perfection and when the Leafs gained the zone they crammed the crease and gave the Leafs nothing but open looks from the point.

Leafs needed to do better with point shots. The one place the Leafs could have done better (and likely need some new personnel to do it) is winning puck battles in front of the net ...occupying those CLB defenders. JT and Hyman are really the only guys in the top 9 that do that well.

this is a classic case of completely missing the boat on "statistics".

how tall is Gauthier - and how heavy? and how many minutes did he play?
Engvall
Marincin
Spezza's a pretty big guy.

how much "intensity" does Marincin have? that's correct - zero.

Clifford played an average of what 7 minutes a night

this isn't rocket science.. but you do have to look past the "average height" simplistic stuff

They will.

Executives have already mentioned this, per the Athletic.
