Rumor: Rumours and Proposals Thread: what next?

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Because maybe living in the place where his dad died is too much on reflection.

You might be right, we don't know that for sure. Edmonton still is very low on the list of places UFAs want to go.

 

[94 Oil Drops]

he hated calgary because of the locker room, not the city

Maybe he'd sign in Edmonton as a big "**** you" to Calgary.

Holland sounds confused.

2 year deal with Smith is official.

 

[3IR]

Unless he announces something that's already happened, I don't think Holland is going to give any hints of anything in this presser.

Weird to have a GM who keeps everything so close to his chest.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

Holland giving off his typical nothing answers

 

[McTonyBrar]

Guys can anyone give me something about this Hamilton thing? Was there more said after that Seravelli thing??

He sounds confused because he is confused.

1998 is back that a way Ken.

Yep it’s right at the bottom still. Which makes it so odd that @Zackando Kassani would resort to calling Larsson a toddler simply because he chose to play hockey not in Edmonton. Some classic small man syndrome going on there.

I mean to this end, why try. Just build internally and force people with trades.

 

[Cam98]

Holland is a joke. We gonzo.

He didn't he says they've agreed, but they haven't signed it officially yet.

 

[Weitz]

Yeesh, $2.2 for Smith?

What? This post is a joke wth

 

[McTonyBrar]

Was there anything said about Hamilton after that Seravelli thing about Hamilton?

Hard to do that when your GM throws picks around like a rapper throwing bills at at strip club and won't squeeze other managers.

Your brand of shitposting is no better than mine.

I would love if Hamilton came here. But the reality is that this is still a team that has to overpay to attract even marginal free agents. He's going to be a highly sought after commodity.

 

[AddyTheWrath]

Why more in year 2??

You love arguing on boards every day so much that you actually think Larsson left because of it.

That's your world view. Larsson was reading posts here, and he left cause of it.

Wild mental gymnastics, but I suppose of this place is your whole life then why wouldn't you think it mattered to the players

 

[KlefDown]

TRADE THE PICK KENNY

 

[FanOfSadTeam]

So this was just to announce the Smith signing? BORING

 

[KeithIsActuallyBad]

Why more in year 2??

Add another cut to the pile.

 

[Spawn]

Why more in year 2??

Holland’s never met a deal he doesn’t like to add a sweetener to.

But in all honesty it’s probably his agent speculation about escrow or something and assuming that the take him will be higher in year 2.

 

[joestevens29]

I'm not one to post things from sources, but someone I trust had mentioned it awhile ago and I thought nothing of it but it was confirmed again last night.

Larsson wasn't a Tippett fan.

Take it for what it's worth. I personally don't understand it as they seem like a good match, but for whatever reason Larsson just wasn't a fan.

Its just a media availability post expansion draft.

This was not an announcement

This is the standard before the draft press conference. Literally the day before the draft every year...
