MIN G Josh Harding's off-ice injury is significant, likely to be out months as opposed to weeks. On crutches/in a boot. Tough break.
They need to sign Kuemper now....
Doesn't Josh have MS as well?

Yep and Backstrom was horrible last year....
Battling MS in a mind over matter struggle is a game to game scenario.
The mind over matter battle gets lost in short order.
The damage is irreparable. Not a great prognosis.
Could Peter Budaj be heading to Minnesota?
Depends if they value Budaj higher than Bryz who they can get for free.
Bryz gets a pro tryout
Michael Russo @Russostrib · 8m
Sources: Ilya Bryzgalov has agreed to a pro tryout with #mnwild. Will arrive tomorrow. 7-1-3, 2.12 GAA down stretch with Wild last season

Unfortunately you're right no matter how hard the victim tries to compensate.
And retire his jersey.Budaj for Koivu. And make Koivu the C.
And retire his jersey.
If I'm CBJ, I don't sign him and I don't trade him. I make him play out his 3+ years or whatever it is, in the KHL. I make a statement with him. It's their only option. Its why the fact that the NHL has negotiated no UFA till 27.
Otherwise, they always lose out big time. Its the only way for the league to keep its right and not become the NFL.
By winter if he doesn't have a contract he'll be free to join any team.
Johansen for Chuckie and a 1st and RyJo signs a long term deal before the trade?
Can you eplain why? I thought he was an RFA? I'm sorry but I'm use to the last cba.
The current team must extend a "qualifying offer" to a restricted free agent to retain negotiating rights to that player. Qualifying offers are for one year contracts. The minimum salary for the qualifying offer depends on the player's prior year salary.
If the qualifying offer is not made, the player becomes an unrestricted free agent.
If the player rejects a qualifying offer, he remains a restricted free agent.
If theres no extension on his contract he will be a UFA, if by December the Jackets don't offer him a deal and no other team (pretty much impossible), he will be a UFA and if he'll no choice but to find another team by winter. If not he won't play the rest of the season then he'll be free as air next season. He pretty much has no choice but to accept a deal and there's no way he can be forced to play in Russia, cause if the Jackets don't offer him anything he'll be a UFA.
Im hoping they land somewhere like 9th or 10th in the conference.. Boston, Montreal, Tampa should all be ahead of them in the division. Don't think they are as bad as Florida, Ottawa or Buffalo.
