I would like a reunion with Jagr so he can finally score a goal in the playoffs.

Give him a cheap 1y base+bonus, put him with Krejci or Bergeron and give him 2nd PP time.

Funny tweet from JJ. He'll be getting some calls, bet on it.

That takes care of that.

Two birds.

 

[Gee Wally]

Good !

I think Minnesota fans were delusional on the value of Scandella to begin with. He's not an impact defenseman and he makes $4M. The talk of 1st's and top prospects was absolutely insane IMO.

Holy ****!!

I like Orlov, but $5m+ for 33 points!!??

And people complain about Krug's contract.

Bruins loved Murphy in his draft year. Wonder if they would still have interest now?

Worth the risk on a two-way deal.

They don't have much depth/any depth once you get past the NHL roster at RD.

And here's where Tuukka's contract will start to look like a real bargain....

Devante Smith-Pelly also bought out by the Devils.

The number of buyouts is surprising to say the least

His offense fell off hard last year but Jokinen is still a good player. I always remember him as a good match-up guy when he played us.

 

[BruinDust]

So to get Marleau out of SJ other teams are probably looking at 3 years or more.

Same as it took 5 years to get Backes out of St. Louis as they had offered him 4 years to stay.

Pass.

cap world coming in a year where the cap barely jumped at all, teams scrambling for any monies they can

The cap has barley moved the past few years. Each of the past four years it's only gone up 2 mil per year:

14-15 69
15-16 71.4
16-17 73
17-18 75

it's just this year it seems there are far more buyouts then I can recall pre-july 1.

Pierre McGuire today was warning fans in Montreal that the Habs are in big trouble.

It's hard to believe that this division actually looks worse than it was last year.

Buffalo upgraded today so they might be in the hunt, Toronto is only going to get better.

Montreal might be forced to do the unthinkable and trade Price especially if he signals he doesn't think he can win a Cup there. They have no prospects of note in the pipeline.
