News from Around the AHL/NHL/KHL 2021-22

[PK Cronin]

Makar is going to get another payday after that deal too, nice work by him and his agent. That cap space Colorado used to have is quickly evaporating and they don't have much to show for it. $20M in space and they only have 14 guys signed for next season with big pieces still to go.

 

[Spybot]

I'd say if Seth Jones and Makar get 9-9.5 million a Norris-winning superstar Adam Fox deserves 10+.

Make it $12+.

Maker and Jones set the new market. My first thought is how much will the Isles need to re-up Pelech? Not the same type of D men, but just as valuable to the Isles.

I stand by my thought that Pelech maxes at $5.5M

 

[The Winter Soldier]

I would offer him at 5M at 8 years, 5.25M for 7 years, 5.5M for 6 years.

Agreed.

 

[CupHolders]

Agreed.

Seconded. It's now official.

Kane and Toews come off in two seasons, so at least there's that?

I'm just confused about why Chicago wanted him so desperately. Are they ready for another run? They don't even have a goalie.

My guess is they're looking around the western conference and thinking "it's Vegas, Colorado, and that's it." With Kane's prime winding down and the Avs possibly losing Landeskog, maybe the hawks figure they have an opening.

You're right: they better find a goalie.

Plenty of goalies to get out there. That’s an easy solution.

Well I'm in for 6 years 39 million

And I'll predict Sorokin ends up with more than everyone thinks and will be a giant pain in the ass

Colorado got lucky and managed to underpay players, especially stars, for years.

Now they are getting dragged by some of those players and new guys who aren't taking Walmart salaries, just because of success years ago, sitting across the bargaining table from a hockey legend like Sakic, etc.

In a couple years when Nathan MacKinnon comes due, they better be prepared to bend over, right after sliding him a blank check.

You can build your team from the net out or go deep down the middle.

But what you don't do is load up on LWs and go halfway on your rebuild, while trying to simply spite your rival with moves like signing Panarin.

I love that Dolan is now focusing on the Rags.

If it weren't for Messier, he'd be 0 for 52 seasons as owner of both the Rags and Knicks.

Dolan is Daniel Snyder bad as an owner.

This is all the Columbus Bluejackets fault.. if they accepted the Garth offer of our entire 2012 draft for the #2 spot to select Ryan Murray there would be no salary cap issues. There would be no Pelech, no Leddy, no Barzal, no Beau, no new owners , no new arena, just a crappy team playing in Kansas City .

edit : most important there would have been no Loic Leduc. My apologies all

We would've been killed if that thing happens

Boggles my mind that people defend snow when THIS was our reality for so long.

Ristolainen. Yandle. Carter Hart should ask for a trade immediately.

Hopefully the jets can turn their crap around. NY football has been abysmal the past few years
