Why imagine, when you have Chia at the helm? All you need to do is look at your watch.imagine signing three guys to a PTO when you don't even have the freaking cap space to sign one of your most important D man.
It's fine. The amount of times this happens to other teams, especially over the last few seasons (think Trouba, or Gaudreau) is enough to show that agents have set precedent and there's influence from both sides to wait it out. He'll be there opening night.I'm starting to panic a bit.
Can someone talk me down?
It's because he has no choice with the $3.9M cap remaining. Koskinen at $2.5M better work out as a 1B goaltender! Otherwise chia screwed the team over with that signing especially if nurse blows up during his bridge contractI’m glad that Chia is trying to get the best deal possible for the team.
makes no sense. even if guys like Chiasson or Upshall manage to nab a spot from Cagguila or Rattie etc, we probably won't even be able to give them a 950k-1m deal for one year and they'll walk to another team while we'll be stuck with the lessersWhy imagine, when you have Chia at the helm?

Yet if Koskinen proves to be able to either be a good backup or even supplant Talbot, if Talbot sucks again this season, then Chia will look pretty damn smart.
How much is Nurse realistically going to “blow up” during his bridge contract. He’ll never be a first unit PP guy and Klefbom is likely to pair back with Larsson. This puts Nurse back on the 2nd pairing having to cover defensively for Benning/Russell this season. I’m a huge Nurse fan, but the odds of playing well enough next season to demand a long term deal that’s much more than what he is currently demanding is slim.

Snow falling and Nurse not signed is bad news.
Or at least I take it that way..
Where did summer go?!
2 inches of snow here already and still falling (northern AB)... GP is supposed to get 6-10 inches in the next day or so.Where's it snowing? I see sunshine
Pretty much this. I don't even know if the PTO's will get 1mil. Regardless it's a no issue to sign a guy that is on a PTO.Why could they not afford a $1M deal. The player being replaced probably earns that.
