I'd shake my head and tell the barkeep to leave the bottle.
They are supposed to have $3 beer (probably crap but hey) at the draft party .

That'd be tampering.
I don't believe that. They might not have spoken to him personal but I'd bet the house there has been conversations with his agent.
Yeah but I bet they know if he's going to sign with them or not already. He's getting the max wherever he goes and I'm sure he knows the teams that will offer him that. I would think he's already told Toronto if he will sign there. He'd instantly be the king of the city. Does he want that pressure or not?
That'd be tampering.
This. There haven't been any conversations between Toronto and Stamkos. The only talking that has been done is the media, and while that may be enough to persuade both parties to pull the trigger, there is no such thing as a "handshake agreement" between Stamkos and Toronto. For all we know, he could sign anywhere this summer. Fans have just been relying on the media for speculation.

Which is tampering. Which if discovered could have meant that Tampa gets awarded Matthews. That's a big risk to take for a jump start on talks. So I'd bet there hasn't been any such communication.
Without looking at numbers and past successes. How much better is Mathews than Domi in pure raw talent? It cannot be that far lopsided.
I haven't had time to watch the potential of Mathews but I've seen enough of domi to know he's a gem.
I wouldn't trade Domi, Dvorak and the 7OA for Mathews, I know that.
Either would I, but if you take any one of those three out of the trade, I would do it. Domi and Duke had a great first year, but this second year will give us a much better read on what type of players they really are.
And what does this have to do with arena discussion?
I'd drive up to meet you and bring my own bottle.
The last page has been about the draft and not the arena announcement. Jamey has plenty of company. I'm not a moderator, and don't play one on TV.
Good god. Port is not sweet enough?
That'd be tampering.
Isn't there an interview period a week before free agency where teams can talk to free agents but not finalize contract? Wouldn't the Leafs or whoever have a really good indication from Stamkos if he was interested in signing with them?
Starts day two of the draft. First round is in the books.
you really believe that? I'd be shocked personally.I think we'll get vague assurances for 10-11 months and then the team will relocate to another market out of state.
