The Kevin Hayes watch should end today I'm looking at #Avs or #Bruins. Other teams fans will begin to talk about how he isn't good at hockey

#Avalanche spokesman on UFA Kevin Hayes: "Like many, many other teams, we have an interest in the player."
Well at least we have some reporting from the media

Who would be classified as a spokesperson? And to me that's pretty telling, sounds like the first confirmation that the Avs are interested in Hayes, and not the other way around.

You are reading way too much into it.
How am I reading to much into it? I'm not saying "Hayes to Colorado confirmed!!" or anything like that.
I'm saying that it suggests they have interest. I haven't seen anything else to convince me that there any interest from the Avs side unless those reports of meetings with the club were true.
Maybe I read it wrong... my bad.
The Avs are interested in Hayes and Hayes is interested in the Avs.

Hearing this morning that the Rangers are in the thick of the bidding for Kevin Hayes.
What exactly are they bidding at this point?
I've been guessing Rangers. When it comes down to it guy is going to choose what he's familiar with.

Paul Carey is our draw!
Bonuses maybe?
Why cannot bleakley be called up for two years? What????I hope it comes down to the prospects. The top 6 is basically out of the question this year and next for both teams. And both teams should have an opening in the top9 next year, though ours is more certain with Briere. And both teams should have an opening in the top6 2 years from now. Over the next 2 years they have to re-sign 10 guys, we have to re-sign 9. They do only have 12 players signed now tough, including Smith. I would say as far as the current roster looks, Boston is probably slightly more attractive because of the need for another forward.
They do have a better group of high end forward prospects though:
Hishon, Bleackley
Pasternak, Khokhlachev, Spooner, Fraser
Fighting it out with Hishon, who has major injury concers, and Bleackley who can't even be called up for the next 2 years, looks a lot easier than adding a couple more guys to the mix.
I don't think the A bonuses, which are the ones he has a chance of getting, can exceed ~$850k (too lazy to check the exact amount).
I think he'll pick a team that a) has a chance of winning because it's depressing to lose all the time and b) sets him up to produce the season after this so he can sign a good second contract.
There isn't really much you can do with an ELC to give a player extra money. He'll get around $1.5M/year for the first two years if he sticks in the NHL.

Please stop posting all things Ryan Lambert. He gives me brain aneurysms.
