No trigger here, just saying, if you wanna play dirty, I’ll play 3 players in the NHL if this is gonna go down like this. I don’t want it to because it takes the realism and fun out.

Nemeth, Patrik

$5,000,000

Now there is a 'realistic' contract.

You just love stirring up the pot, don’t you. I won’t start up more drama with a grown man looking to “have some fun”.

I’m fine with how both you and McDrai are running your teams, but you do see the ridiculousness of calling his move out for not being realistic (or tanking) considering the direction you’ve taken with your team, right?

It’s far more “real” that a team would demote a struggling top prospect to the AHL than it is a team would use the number “expansion” picks on non NHL players to comprise their NHL roster some chose to.

Unless there’s clear collusion or requirements not being, we shouldn’t havre GMs whining over a move like this.

You can’t seriously think that that was a strategy of mine can you? I took on Markov’s cap hit in a trade from Chicago in the Parayko deal, and Da Costa was set on playing in the NHL when I picked him until he got injured. I picked Schneider Hedman and Bergeron with my first 3 picks. Did you seriously think I meant to rebuild and have a team like this?

When someone says “waived for tanking purposes” it’s a bit of an issue.

Teams have signed players or taken on players to reach the floor in real life. Not sure how that is comparable to moving a top prospect down for the sake of tanking. Those contracts would never have the ridiculous consequences that more than half the teams emptying their NHL rosters would.

That said, if someone want to make a rule to avoid the most extreme salary floor contracts I wouldn’t have a problem with that (I have a couple of questionable contracts myself - at least one).

that was one contract negotiated by the commissioner himself. I would’ve done something else if he had told me to.

I´m not talking about your deal specifically. As you might have noticed I like to discuss these things in general. And I have noticed you think it is about you.

To me it is not an issue - my comment was more to try to avoid the two topics being discussed as one.

Difficult to say what a fair contract would be (to avoid these reaching the floor contracts). And the consequence of the odd player on these kind of contracts is rather insignificant in my opinion. But others do not always agree with my opinion. Even if I can´t help feeling some are just trying to be difficult right now.

Vancouver assigns Alex Kerfoot to the AHL and activates Tyler Graovac from IR.

For “meat and potato” purposes.

 

[ATypicalCanadian]

Just saying if people want to call up useless players and get rid of good players I'm totally down to trade

Collusion!

Collusion!

Relax your giant moustache my dude. I'd at least give up Future Considerations.

Can't see Alex being too happy about that!

 

[Scholarships]

lol if mcdab didn't say "for tanking purposes" this wouldn't have been an issue

 

[StrictlyCommercial]

How about young players unnecessarily forced to the minors demand trades? A la Drouin.

The Donald is strong in this one.

This seems like a really easy and effective solution to me.

 

[donut]

call up Jacob de la Rose, LW/C

 

[FOurteenS inCisOr]

Ownership is close with the Kerfoot family and have been assured that Alex understands that demotions are temporary and part of being a rookie in the NHL, and he’s happy to be part of a winning franchise.

Alex is a good kid and realizes he’s not going to like every decision that’s made, and that making the best of the situation and not whining to his agent or the commissioner is the best course of action.

 

[RandV]

SIGNING: The Chicago Blackhawks have signed C Luke Glendening to a 1 year deal worth $1.8 million.

Are there still scrubs available without a team? Because I've long since lost tracks, but if any agents wants a job for their client I have three open spots on Anaheim.

There are definitely a few unsigned NHL regulars out there if you're willing to do a little digging.

Yeah. That should solve it.

@Weylspin

Can neither confirm nor deny however if these words are true then I was not informed of it
