Has there been any indication as to what Chara is looking for in his next contract?

Looks like he got about $3.5M last year with his performance bonuses.

I don't know if he's worth that much now.

If it's not league minimum for anyone, the Leafs wouldn't be interested anyway.

It might sound stupid, but I wouldn't want Chara. Everything that he got away with in Boston, he would be called for in Toronto. He would be on the ice for 3 minutes a game and in the box for 22 minutes.

He's still playing 22-24 min a night on the President's Trophy Team. If he isn't worth 3mil...who is?

I'd take him any day under 2mil.

I'd take Grabner though.

1 year 700K and he doesn't have to worry about moving out to another team if he has to play in the AHL. Can keep his family in the same spot no matter what.

And he makes 700K regardless of where he plays. Seems like a situation he would be interested in IF he doesn't want to just hang them up in the nhl.

21:01 regular season.

19:47 playoffs.

I agree with you - what I meant is I don't think he's worth $3.5M to the Leafs because they would have to make other moves to fit him.

You almost sent me to twitter, which I have been avoiding all day for a particular spoiler I know I'll come across. Phew

If any of you know what I'm referring to, just please, please don't post it.

No idea what you are referring to.

Chara swearing he will never play for the Bruins again?

Advanced computer modelling proving Patriots can't make the playoffs this year?

Bernese Mountain Dogs being named worst dogs ever?

That pile of snow from the MBTA finally melting?

More like people are trying to get other people to be mad she looked good in borrowed clothes for a fashion shoot.

Not to be confused, of course, with high class in borrowed shoes:
