Cause the couldn’t afford to pay him what Seattle offered.

Av’s still have a (frank) load of roster to fill.

Thanks

Where'd you see that? I don't see him tweeting it today

He’s the 4th period guy right? Rosner (who seems to know a little, how much I don’t know) tweeted it.

Thanks

The Avs have 16 players under contract with a touch over $12m in cap space to fill out the rest of their roster. Including a #1 goalie.

They be marvellously (frank)ed.

Lou: Say Joe, I notice you have a wee bit of cap trouble there. Let me help you out. Toews for a 3rd round pick in 2024. That'll free you up to sign a goalie.

Well the good news is that it's super easy to dump salary according to niteislander.

Any minute now all those teams lined up and dying for the services of Leo Komarov and Thomas Hickey should start jamming up the phone lines in Lou's office

As I have said to him before, “we can just dump salary at will.”

Well here we are again

We're at the point in the day where I only vaguely recognize the players getting signed.

85. Trevor Lewis just signed with Calgary.

Oh no.

Trade them Varlamov for Toews and a 2nd.

Then flip the 2nd to Seattle for Vanecek.

Will have over 100

Looking at the Leafs roster and it is brutal. They still have $1.6m in cap space and room for one more on the roster but good God is it a sh!t show. Nothing but 4th liners after their top 4. Have fun finding another job Dubas, because when this ship sinks you're gone.

No that would be abso.......well, maybe. Not sure I like going into this campaign with Sorokin/Vanacek as our goalie tandem.

Is it irrational to be this excited about Raty? Made another very good play to finish their game off leading to an empty netter.

Imagine if after all is said and done we end up with Toews again?

Hell, I'd be thrilled with that.

I think he wants in the NHL this year.

Would be fine with me. He would just not put up the same offensive numbers though.

That would be funny. And I'd be ok with it.

That Lou's gone out of his way more than once to talk about how that was a move he had to make, but didn't want to, says a lot. Toews is a solid top-4 d-man...even if he suffered from a massive brain cramp with that Kuznetsov eagle thing

That would be awesome but there’s a zero % chance Sakic is giving us his number 2 first pairing defenseman.

Raty now leads the summer showcase in scoring with eight points.

4G 4A

Keep in mind this is against some of the best players of his age group. The next test for him is to do this against men in Finland.
