This had nothing to do with Marner setting the market anyway. It's a really good group of RFA's that want to get paid. Both sides are using whatever leverage they have with the opening of camp being a tipping point, followed by the first game of the season, followed by December 1.

Pardon my going off topic,
Bahamas hurricane relief effort, taken from Litterbox Cats https://www.litterboxcats...ge-werks-hurricane-dorian
"The Panthers announced that the team has partnered with UNICEF USA to raise funds for Hurricane Dorian relief efforts in the Bahamas.
Donations will support ongoing UNICEF relief efforts in the Bahamas. Fans and members of the community who wish to support these efforts can donate here"
https://floridapanthers.f...thers_foundation_donation
"UNICEF is an international organization known for protecting the territories and rights of every child. From Puerto Rico to the Caribbean, they have been providing emergency support for those in need with water, shelter, hygiene kits and more."

For those who live on FL's east coast, there are many local efforts under way to collect and ship vital supplies to the stricken islands.

do people expect Ek to be the sole source on all things NHL and then come in here to tell on him when they know where he pulled the info from, cause that seems pathetic and sad on most peoples part, not Ek's. ok cool just checking

not seeing how in the world the Caps could get in on Laine - they are over the cap a bit already, and need to shed some salary...

who would go to the Jets?

It's just funny he see's the same tweets as all of us do and considers them a 'source' of his

And the ones that aren't on Twitter are just him making random poop up claiming it's from a solid source just for clicks.

People don't come on here for rumors, they simply come on here to talk hockey on their teams forum and he should be thankful for that.

The other RFA's team are not in cap hell like the Leafs so they, the RFA other than Marner can hold out much longer (december 1st) to get deal done.

I just like EK's avatar. Its both kind of eerie and mean.

I also think he does have legit sources. He was the only one that reported the Evander Kane and Seth Jones deals (accurately) prior to when they broke.

Yeah but was it a unanimous vote or was it publicly said that "we're not going to sign our RFA's until the Leafs figure out what to do with Marner?" That's real sound management tactics.
