HAD to be done, I will never fault Botterill for it same as I don't fault Tim for the Okposo signing. Context.
You want him to fail?Can't wait to see how the new GM will get out of this contract. Ten times worse than Okposo signing. Can't wait for Skinners 50 points next year.
Same way people were waiting for the team to fail after some off-season moves last year.You want him to fail?
Why do you compare the two like that? It might be easy for me to say right now while Skinny is still 27 years old, but I never liked the Okposo signing. Byproduct of Tavares, similar to Moulson. Two of the crappiest contracts given out.
It would put a serious dent in Krueger's efforts to improve the culture and restore confidence if they lost him.I hate the price tag but it had to be done. If he’s making that much might as well give him a letter (probably deserves one anyways) and make damn sure he know that if he wants to win he better be producing and leading this team.
Doesn't the CBA expire after 2022 and isn't it more than likely the next CBA will have compliance buyouts?This is the cost of Botts being terrible the last 2 years... Skinner has to be kept at all costs
I wish I could like this post a dozen times. I am going to un-like it just so I can like it over again.Same way people were waiting for the team to fail after some off-season moves last year.
Some people value being right more than the team actually doing well
If it comes with a NMC you can still buy them out correct?Doesn't the CBA expire after 2022 and isn't it more than likely the next CBA will have compliance buyouts?

I don’t think so because I think they have get waived before getting bought out.If it comes with a NMC you can still buy them out correct?

Disagree. Paying a player barely in the top 100 of nhlers like a top 10 nhler is how bad teams stay bad. We will see what the final details are like but this feels like Bobby Ryan 2.0

It's impossible to know the rules of the new CBA until there's a new CBA. I think NTC/NMC is something the owners will want to change.If it comes with a NMC you can still buy them out correct?
