Rumor: Rumors and Proposals Thread | Rishaug: Expect Swedish FA Theodor Lennstrom Signing

[McXLNC97]

With the whole economic uncertainty and how it will almost certainly lower cap projections, i wonder if guys like Hall will go the Hossa route and sign a 1yr deal with someone, and then resign with someone longer term the following summer when the cap will probably jump by quite a bit.

 

[McDNicks17]

Bruins sign NCAA defenseman Nick Wolff.

There goes one chance at an animal pairing with Bear.

Who can we dump/release to get under the 50 contract limit?

They would only have to do that if they wanted to sign someone to play this season.

I thought dumping Joel Persson to Anaheim opened up a spot under the 50-man.

IIRC, because of the uncertainty of this season continuing, all these college UFAs are signing contracts that start next season and are unable to sign contracts for what’s left of the 19-20 season.

Hall has stated on multiple occasions the money isn’t the reason he will sign somewhere. At this point in his career he’s already made what? 42M? More than he’d ever know what to do with, he wants to win and that’s it. Probably ends up with a Boston or another contender if they are able to shed some cap.

We took back the contract of Angus Redmond in that deal which really didn’t make any sense to me

Taylor Hall will be an Oiler next year. Hopefully hockey is back by then...

 

[McDNicks17]

I haven't seen his name come up too much in NCAA UFA talks, but I wonder if the Oilers have interest in Brinson Pasichnuk.

Alberta boy(from Bonnyville). Just finished his senior year at Arizona State. 6'0'' 185lbs left-handed defenseman.

Had 37 points in 36 games this year. Scores a lot of goals with a bomb of a shot.

 

[McDNicks17]

Drai needs to step up and recruit Marc Michaelis too.

German LWer that finished third in NCAA scoring. 44 points in 31 games at Minnesota State.

Manbearwolf. Half man, half Bear, half Wolff

If Edmonton wants him and the cap goes up by a large enough margin, I could see a one year deal.

Hall needs to prove himself again before signing a big contract, and I think Edmonton is a great place for that to happen.

At this point I think a flat cap is about as much as we should expect.

We really have no idea and won't until the situation is a lot clearer. But it will almost certainly have to be a purely negotiated number since using the usual formula for this year would be nearly impossible.

3 man unit in OT, Hall, McDavid and Drai haha

 

[Tobias Kahun]

3 man unit in OT, Hall, McDavid and Drai haha

3 minute shift, zero backchecking

 

[backhandsauce]

3 minute shift, zero backchecking

Better win the draw eh

 

[Mr Tadakichi]

I'm honoestly thinking Hall is just cursed. We should stay away form him (unless he is cheap with a contract)

Michaelis is dead to Leon.

 

[McDNicks17]

Michaelis is dead to Leon.

Boooooooo.

I'll settle for Parker Tuomie then. He's another German winger in the NCAA. He finished second to Michaelis on Minnesota State with 37 point in 37 games

Incoming signing with the Flames in 3......2......1.......

Cap is about to flatline or crater. It’s certainly not going up.

If the Canucks get Minnesota State's best forward and the Flames get their best defenseman, we deserve their second best forward(Tuomie), at least

I honestly wouldn't be shocked if Holland doesn't grab any of the top college guys. He completely ignored them last draft even when it was a good year for them. I think he rather grab Euro guys
