Johnny Hockey Contract Watch - The End of Days?

[Bouma Fett*]

In regards to not wanting superstars to take pay cuts, I don't see why. A lot do. You got to find the sweet spot that works for both parties. Subban didn't take one because he came off a bridge deal. Toews and Kane went for max money because it was third contend they both had won cups, so getting paid was their priority.

Look at Tampa. You can argue both Stamps and Hedman took less to try to keep a competitive team. You've got to at least try to get then down a bit.

I thought the gap was 1.25 according to McKenzie and Francis? If it has closed how is it considerable?

Surprising... nobody.

Again, no facts, just speculation. At least they stopped quoting Frachise the village idiot.

 

[Ynnek]

No freaking ****!!!

 

[Snazu]

just goes to show you what kind of tight ship Treliving runs if these negotiations have been going on for this long and there's no leak, except tweedle-dumbs made up numbers, about what kind of money and term is actually being discussed. All the big insiders have only had speculation all this time.

Once in a while it's nice to get a rumor here and there, but then when something like the Hamilton trade happens out of nowhere, that's like being a kid on christmas morning.

Hey I heard they're close. No details at all. No Numbers, no time-frame, no inside info. Oh wait it was from tweets of normally reliable insiders in the last few pages of this thread.

Lol.

No one knows a ting. Except maybe Franchise.

This site needs to be upgraded to one that has like buttons.

As much as it sucks not hearing anything about it, I like how tight-lipped Tre is.

It's annoying and refreshing at the same time.
It's annoying we know nothing.
It's good that whenever he talks to someone there's not a million speculations that get leaked unless it's from the other side.

Also, my opinion, but JG is a much better player than McKinnon (a name I've heard his name linked to with regards to contracts).

Guys, I have a reliable source that confirmed to me that Gaudreau text his agent today, then had Skittles and Nutella afterwards. Now I don't know what the text said, but Skittles.. amirite?

What are they saying?

some guy named Mike was telling him he had zero sources and some guy named Michael defended Francis by telling the Mike guy to Grow up, It's his job

This, and the "I'll stake my career" tweet are my favourites.

The stake my career one was to me. I've taken a screen shot in hopes I can use it against him after this is done.

Eric Francis just liked my tweet where I mocked him in reply to you

Oh man, that guy drives me crazy

 

[Deen]

just itching to see "Gaudreau Signed" pop up on Twitter. Refreshing constantly haha

Some say he is still refreshing to this day.

 

[1989]

Read between the lines, but Treliving is back in Calgary without a signed Gaudreau. Looks like it'll take a few regular-season games before it'll be figured out.
