yeah but when we take a closer look, his CFrel is +3.61 and his xGF is 50.85
WHAT ELSE IS CLAUDE GIROUX HIDING?!

He may or may not be hiding a cop fetish. Idk

I mean...what do you realistically expect? Everyone complaining about this "boring" offseason...teams don't have to make trades. And it isn't even the opening of FA yet.

Not much. Today was always going to be boring.

I am baffled at Rinaldo getting another job, though.

Jets wanted to remove all the cap hit, and Armia was the cost. Not to mention, Armia was a RFA so maybe he was asking for more than the Jets wanted to give.

Montreal can retain half, then trade Mason for a pick like a 4th-5th.

It's why having a deep prospect pool is an asset. You can "buy" your way out of mistakes. Armia is a good bottom 6 player, but the Jets have lots of guys that can step in to replace him from their deep pool.

No, I get how it works for the Jets. I just didn't see Montreal being able to flip him, even if half retained. That was the point I was making - Mason is negative value.

Seems that was correct - buyout was the escape hatch.

Considering our cap space, I wouldn't have minded us doing that and putting Armia in our bottom six if his RFA ask was right.

Lavy has shown a desire to retread.

He brought back Zolniercyk out of witness protection.

For the safety of the site, I’m glad I’m not. If someone starts ranting about Project Blue Beam, then you’d know it’s Mordy.

Giroux was 2nd in the league in points.

That's elite.

One year does not make a career, an elite player does it over a long period of time.

 

[kudymen]

Is that why he was the leading scorer in the league in the 2010s?


Is this long enough? 2010s NHL Stats

 

[achdumeingute]

One year does not make a career, an elite player does it over a long period of time.

I mean, top 10 points in league over past 1o years is pretty elite if you ask me.

We've had it pretty good with Giroux.

 

[LegionOfDoom91]

Nobody is elite in the entire league but Provorov & Patrick.

 

[kudymen]

7th in ppg... over a long period of time...

 

[TCTC]

That +/- of Crosby and Kopitar is pretty crazy.

You can really see who played for good teams and who played for crappy teams in that timespan.
