he didn't. He moved on from a 28 year old, who wanted 11.5 million per year and was on one leg.

Uninjured, he would have paid it. EK was way more valuable to him here. An uninjured EK would have spent 012/2013 to 2017/2018 putting up 80 plus points, accumulating 2-3 more Norris awards and having a darling status that was unreal. He would have had 6-7 rock solid years left. So Eugene would have had little to worry about.

EK would have put 2000-3000 asses in seats. That is ~ 9 million dollars. He would have more or less paid his own salary. Now any playoff success was Eugene's. Any merchandising: Eugene's, any media revenue: Eugene's..

Eugene is no dummy. He hung on to him and wanted to sign him. But EK wanted to be paid, all the while his body was failing him.. The Euge has more Doctor friends than we have socks, you don't think most shook their head when Eugene asked about EK?

Eugene is annoying. But on this issue, our gripe is with one Matt Cooke. And Cooke did not take Eugene's most prized possession, he took ours. And asking Eugene to pay $11.5 for 50-60 games per season and 40-50 points is insane. It would not have been long before we started criticizing the signing.

Ya, it was smart to move on, considering his injuries.

What American is going to show up to watch the last place Ottawa Senators play hockey? Let’s be realistic.

more than 500.

Logistically it would not be practical. Doug Ford need to allow at least 50% right away, and 100% a week from now.

Was talking about Hillier saying that the convoy should head to the CTC over dinner tonight. I said it was ridiculous because the CTC is private property…. I explained the land is owned by the same owner of the Senators… then my wife then says “who owns the Senators?”

LMAO
