Who want's to play in Ohio

If you think Columbus sucks, you’re... not smart.

There were rumours Columbus was talking with Ottawa, maybe they have a trade to send Savard to Ottawa for their second back++

 

[waitin425]

Its Eklund and all, but....

 

[ScaredStreit]

4 firsts for Barzal? It would be a setback, but thats a haul.

Thats also a lot of money to tie up on three centers in Columbus isnt it? Like $20+ M?

Reinhart, Ho-Sang, Dal Colle, Pulock are the four 1st rounders drafted by NYI before Barzal...would you trade him for those four? I wouldn't.

The memes that will be had for this will be legendary

We don’t have a 2nd, so it’s not going to happen

You only need 4 x 1st.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

10.9 Million and it's 2 1sts, a 2nd, and a 3rd. I hope they do it.

Barzal is worth more than that so I imagine islanders will match it.

 

[Lindberg Cheese]

Who do the Isles bank with? I’ll have to call their corporate restructure debt finance division.

I mean you’ve got college football, Waffle House and the Arnold Classic in March. What else did I miss beside the occasional events that rival Florida Man?

 

[Strait2thecup]

Everyone getting excited but he’ll be matched regardless of the number.... lol

Lou has arranged for the nephew of the owner of a local meat market to take Jarmo on an all inclusive deer hunting trip upstate.

10.9 is an egregious overpayment. He gets the Aho contract. Maybe less.

Lou sits, motionless, at his desk.

Jarmo walks in

Lou casually threatens violence to him and his family.

Jarmo pulls out his testicles and staples them to Lou's desk.

Both men stare at each other. No one blinks

I know its Eklund but makes sense . Id love to see it. Offer sheets need to be tweeked some so GMs actually use them.
There is always talk that "this is the year offer sheets get tossed around" yet nothing really happens. Once again , im hoping some are offered and players actually sign them so we hear about it .
Id offer sheet Sergachev Barzal and???? who else is elite and even a slight possibly would cause issue for the teams that hold their RFA rights?

Gotta overpay sometimes if you want a top 20 forward.

Definitely.

Not Barzal.

There isn't much that makes Columbus unique but it also isn't actively bad or boring. It's actually quite clean and comfortable with some very upscale communities.

Nothing really. Probably best to just stay away and let those of us stuck here suffer in peace.

What? Barzal is better than Marner and Mitch earns $11m...

 

[16thOverallSaveUs]

He’s not better than Marner, though he plays a more valuable position, and Marner is egregiously overpaid. Marner is the only RFA last year that was able to milk a UFA-style contract out of their GM.

 

[FeatherHead]

Until someone offer sheets Dubois ... lmfao

It’s not a big deal that teams offer sheet Dubois. Or anyone else.

The players have to SIGN the offer sheets for them to be if any consequence.

I’ve been in the area quite a few times. It’s a nice area but also very interesting to say the least. Cost of living is extremely affordable but still doesn’t rival Long Island and all.

But he's worse than Aho and Aho earns $8.5m...
