Rumor: Alexander Edler: 3, maybe 4-year deal imminent, AAV $5.0 - $5.5M, no Expansion Draft protection

[JuniorNelson]

I just think the helmets in the NHL are a joke. This is a fast dangerous game. Why can't they wear appropriate gear?

Breaking News:

Edler found guilty of purposely smashing own skull into ice to avoid being hassled about waiving trade clause. "Could see that coming a mile away" says one fan.

 

[Bettman Returnz]

Pretty much puts all trade talk to a rest... well at least we know now and don’t have to hear JB’s bs. Can only hope it’s a short term resigning!

I doubt this injury is serious. Edler will conveniently out for 3 weeks to allow the trade deadline to come and go without any speculation to as why Dim Jim didn't try and seek a trade and then re-sign him July 1. Then he'll be re-signed soon after. Easiest route for a player who doesn't like change and loves the comforts of the country club culture of Vancouver and an owner/GM who is scared of actually rebuilding. Could of seen this coming a mile away.

How the actual f*** can a human being process something like this?

I am totally fine with the rest of your post but I can't abide "could of". My god man.

If true then he is despicable as well as being an idiot.

Get a load of these casuals who don't know about satire-only accounts on the internet.

Sarcasm is the most lazy and BS excuse for stupidity

Don’t try to drag me into this.

Just curious about the sub-headline under screen name...who does that refer to?

What did I post that suggested I was a casual that didn't know about satire-only accounts on the internet? My son is making a living doing satire on-line.

Wow great news for Edler! No mention of concussion protocol, but that seems like a likely scenario.

Murph just reported him having a concussion.

 

[StreetHawk]

Murph just reported him having a concussion.

Well, he hit is face hard, so that’s not a surprise.

Demko, that sucks. Was hoping to see him get nhl games after the break.

Bear, kind of concerning if that is concussion symptom related.

 

[Nucks for the Cup]

All things considered thats good news. Thought for sure his jaw would have at least been fractured by the way he hit the ice.

 

[Melvin]

I'm amazed Edler doesn't have a broken nose.

 

[thekernel]

Wow, could have been so much worse. You never wanna say "happy it's just a concussion", but I really thought his career was in danger when I saw the blood on the ice.

I'm not sure if you don't recognize dry humour or this post is itself satire

So now we appear to be going in circles....my first thought was the original "offending" post was satire and, at least, amusing. My second post was based on someone claiming the original poster was being serious. I think we actually agree on most points.
