Patrick Roy didn't have an update on O'Reilly and Stastny negotiations. But he said there is no tension between team and ROR.

Didn't they already say they are doing this?

Same agent IIRC.

 

[Paxon]

IIRC the "Arizona Coyotes" change was mandated by the arena agreement w/ Glendale.

 

[TehDoak]

To be fair, they never specified where.

that's true.

Jonathan Toews said he and Patrick Kane want to play for #Blackhawks "hopefully our entire careers. That's the priority right there."

Jonathan Toews on contract extension: "We're in discussions right now but as far as I know nothing is concrete." #Blackhawks

Asked Jonathan Toews if there was any scenario where he wouldn't sign contract extension with #Blackhawks: "Very doubtful."

Ryan O'Reilly: "There's no question that I want to be in Colorado next year and try to win [there]. My agent knows that."

Markov off the market.

Elliotte Friedman ‏@FriedgeHNIC 3s

Markov's AAV is $5.75M


Edit: 3years I think

That's an atrocious contract. A questionable GM and a bad coach are going to do everything they can to make sure Montreal never makes the next step.

Meh, stock athlete response. The money will be the determinant

every team in the league would offer them boatloads, the moneys already been decided, they can chose wherever they want to go, sounds like they chose chicago

Until the contract is announced don't assume it's confirmed. It's not like Kane is coming here anyway, but this is how the dance goes

BREAKING: The #Flyers have agreed to terms on a multi-year contract extension with center Brayden Schenn.

There's always a loophole.

Hire Bobby Hull and Stan Mikita as a coach/GM/important person. Kane/Toews play for Hull/Mikita--thus meaning they are playing for "Blackhawks".

Win.

It might be easier to give Tim Murray the nickname "Black Ox" and claim that's what was meant.

 

[mgeise]

You are obsessed with this concept. Philly isn't going give up their 1st to save a few bucks.

It would be about saving $4.6 million in cap space over the next three years. They don't have another CBO.

@adater
I'm hearing more that Stastny will listen to other offers. Possibility he could circle back to Avs, but count me as a pessimist

@TSNBobMcKenzie
Brayden Schenn's new two year deal with PHI pays him $2.25M and $2.75M for an AAV of $2.5M.

 

[26CornerBlitz]

@DarrenDreger

Names are also being thrown at Pens gm, Jim Rutherford for James Neal. What's the going rate for a 30-40 goal scorer? Tough trade to make.

 

[TehDoak]

The basic question is whether saving $4.6M against the cap each of the next three seasons is worth trading back from 17 to 31 in this draft?

For Philly, it might. They have roughly $9.2M in cap space to play with (Pronger will go on LTIR and free up $4.9M) and roughly 6 spots to fill.

Pretty much this. One its merits, this trade doesn't make sense.

Hartnell, Productive, Umberger, on the verge of being waiver bait for a CBO.

Sure, Hartnell IS movable. My guess is several teams would have had interest in him if he was shopped openly. If the Flyers were willing to retain 1.5 million or so a year? Would have been able to get something more than umberger for him. They likely could have traded Hartnell out of the division, gotten a decent return.

However, if the plan is to move an asset for another team to use their CBO? This deal then makes a good bit of sense. Teams were likely asking quite a bit for a 15 million CBO of Hartnell. A 9.2 Million CBO would cost them less in assets. IMHO, this deal, after all is settled, will be about clearing cap space. It seems like a Philly-type move.

@Proteautype: Does Vegas give odds on Flyers players finishing their contracts/careers in Philly? If so, do they start at Hahaha:1 & only get more remote?

No kidding. I'd say Giroux, but with the length of his contract, odds are he gets traded at some point.
