Great news, it means we won’t be subjected to he commentary anymore.

Surprising. I thought you and Pierre would be on the same page. You guys do share similar opinions.

 

[htpwn]

I suppose Melnyk was due for some crazy... we haven't heard much from him this year.

 

[garce]

Anyone who has played at a New England college or prep school has just rocketed to the top of all Senator player charts.
Maybe if we are lucky Pierre can persuade his good pal Gord Miller to join the Sens in some capacity.

I don't know who to feel more sorry for: Seattle fans for being stuck with two ex-Leaf coaches, or Ottawa fans for being stuck with McGuire.

Ottawa. Trust me the ex-Leafs coaches weren't the problem.

Applies to every Canadian NHL team.

[Super Mega]

were they going to lose Caleb Jones in expansion or something? Keith is barely a hockey player anymore

 

[Mats13]

Lmfao what great use of all that cap space

 

[LeafsOHLRangers98]

That is some kind of awful for the Oilers.. wow.

 

[Jimmy Firecracker]

Man how the f*** does Edmonton not get any cap relief in this deal? What is Holland doing?

 

[Seath The Scaleless]

Lol what a steal by the Hawks. Cap relief AND actual assets? Incredible.

But they can easily screw it up if they overpay for Seth Jones.

Dude's so creepy. His love affair for Schenn started my hate for Schenn.
Poor kid didn't stand a chance

 

[ACC1224]

I'm guessing Keith must have a ton of term and money left on his deal?

Not really:

Duncan Keith - CapFriendly - NHL Salary Caps

Wow 13 year deal, $3.6m remaining over last two years and only $7.5m in bonuses. We would have given him $7.5m in bonuses just to sign.

 

[Punch Drunk Loov]

Teams willingly help Chicago and Tampa

Everything I've read about this is just strange. It seems it was an ownership move.

With Ottawa's GM needing a new contract soon, it's not out of the world ol Pierre ends up with the top gig lol

Don't worry, Hyman is still not signed...Dubas still has time to screw up again...

 

[ToneDog]

He can and he will.

 

[Superstar]

Parise and Suter are getting bought out by Minnesota...so does Dubas take a run at either?
