NHL News/Notes XVII

[Barrie22]

He won't get suspended since he got a match penalty during the game. At least, it seems that way with the player safety department...

1 game.

 

[LadyStanley]

What a joke

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Yanni Gourde.

 

[BaileyMacTavish]

Looks like Kings got Phaneuf and Nate Thompson for Nick Shore and Marian Gaborik with 25% salary retained

 

[rangerssharks414]

The Kings traded for Phaneuf.

(Yes, I know that they sent Gaborik, but still...)

 

[spintheblackcircle]

I think every former Shark scored today. Carpenter for Vegas and Wingels (pp!!!) have goals too

 

[rangerssharks414]

Dorion and Benning got contract extensions in the same week. Hilarious.

 

[LadyStanley]

Scratch his name off

 

[rangerssharks414]

I thought Pokka was good?

 

[LadyStanley]

Flames sign Backlund to 6 year extension

 

[LadyStanley]

Fans ejected for racial slurs. So contrary to the inclusiveness celebrated this month by the league.

 

[LadyStanley]

Hmmm

Devante is more like Mike Brown in not really being an NHL caliber player. Maybe he should either be signed by DW, or take up another sport? DW seems to love to sign these types.

Banished, banished, banished!

 

[Barrie22]

Hmmm

Mrazek traded to philly for a 3rd and 4th conditional picks.

 

[LadyStanley]

Mrazek traded to Flyers by Red Wings

And retained salary

 

[LadyStanley]

Conditions on those picks

 

[TomasHertlsRooster]

Conditions on those picks

When is the last time we saw a trade with so many conditions?

 

[rangerssharks414]

How did Jim Benning get a contract extension again? $4M a year for Gudbranson?

How did Jim Benning get a contract extension again? $4M a year for Gudbranson?

I am not complaining. The Canucks can continue to live in mediocrity for as long as I care.

That being said, 4M a year seems way too much for a stay at home D-man with a career high in 13 points (4 points in 41 games this year).

3 mil extra added on if he had 26 more points career high.

Are you comparing Gudbranson to Vlasic? If yes, seriously?

I mean I know Vlasic is overpaid but he is still an elite D-man playing on a top pairing.

 

[Barrie22]

Nope just stating how bad vlasics contract is also.

Atleast gubransons is only 4 years. And he is still young so will always be someone dumb enough to trade for him hoping a change of scenario will work.

Vlasic is overpaid by 2 million at the least and 3-4 years to long.

 

[LadyStanley]

So maybe it's a good thing Sharks play Preds Thursday before he arrives. 3/29 could be interesting.

 

[LadyStanley]

From this, I might guess it's SIDS. Sad.
