Thiessen?
Thanks, that sounds like the name I was trying to remember. I guess he didn't pan out.
Thiessen?
What about the 1st round pick we can get who may or may not even make the NHL and will need 4+ years to develop?
Haven't you heard? We are rebuilding and that means trading everything for picks.
Niemi and Crawford as well.
The goalie market isnt like it used to be. There's Price and Rinne, and then 20-30 guys who are largely interchangable and their play can inexplicably change drastically. Look at Dubnyk and Hammond.
Nobody invests much in goalies anymore. Chicago won a cup with Niemi, and then didn't want to give him 5 million and they replaced him with whoever was around.
Ray Emery went to the finals with Ottawa. Dwayne Roloson went to the finals with Edmonton. Michael Leighton went to the finals with Philly.
This "average goalie gets hot and pulls a team along" pretty much happens every single playoffs. Multiple goalies too.
There is conflicting information of how many contracts we're at. Does anyone have a definitive answer?
Just use the ending code between the YT tags (_me6Ckz_Dwg in this case). No need for the url.

I'm fairly confident we're at 49. I'm no pro CBA reader or credited journalist though.
I didn't see this but Chris Johnston said yesterday on twitter that the Leafs told him they were at 50 contracts.
So I guess that's the definitive answer we've been looking for.
Is there no way they can get out of a contract of a player they don't see has any future? I recall this being done in the past, but I could be (quite easily) mistaken.

So that's it?..Leafs are officially out of the O'Connor hunt?
It's possible to terminate a contract, but it has to be a mutual termination from both parties (team and player). That's how we got out of the Kontiola contract.
I wish Orr would just retire or want out of his contract... but I guess it's nice to just sit on a paycheque.

Im not sure that his opinion is worth anything more then any of ours.
Does a PTO contract count towards the contract limit? Could we sign him to a PTO with an agreement in place to sign a contract in the summer?
