August 26, 20213 yr comment_516968 That price seems more in line for a 32 goal, 76 point average player, especially with his defensive skill. Ballpark is usually $100,000 per point in today’s NHL as a starting point to gauge a contract.

August 26, 20213 yr comment_516988 On Svechnikov, I believe that is paying a little for his upside (he's 21) and it does lock him up until age 29. I agree perhaps an overpay now but I get the thinking and if he was a Jet that deal wouldn't tick me off.
August 26, 20213 yr comment_516989 I think Couturier is a poor man's Scheiffele, but I don't watch enough Flyers games, either....

I agree perhaps an overpay now but I get the thinking and if he was a Jet that deal wouldn't tick me off. He's a star in Carolina. It's pricey and paying for potential but I'd be happy if he was a Jet for sure. Great deal for the former Whalers Looking at the Couturier deal... Scheif gonna get 10 plus on his next deal here. 9.5 atleast. Dubois was number 3 behind Laine and Matthews so compare the centers not named Matthews to Dubois in that draft and he's solid. He's actually younger than Stanley.. same draft BTW

August 29, 20213 yr comment_517288 $20 signing bonus, Aho wears 20, troll complete but it could backfire on the Hurricanes.
August 29, 20213 yr comment_517293 The contract number in part is so that the Habs will be forced to max out on their cap (10% over the limit before the season starts) if they match, so Canes hoping that scares them off. But $6 million for a 20 point player once again shows that GMs just can’t keep out of their own way when it comes to destroying the league with runaway contracts.

If they don't then they get a 1st rounder and a 3rd round pick back and the Canes are on the hook for the 6 million? Maybe I'm misunderstanding this but giving up a 1st round bust player for a 1st rounder back sounds like a good deal for Montreal to me??

September 3, 20213 yr comment_518487 Here are my predictions: Helle, Wheels and KConn will go on Team USA, Ehlers will be called to Denmark, It would be a shame if they don't put Scheif on Team Canada Edited September 3, 20213 yr by iHeart
September 4, 20213 yr comment_518660 Decision day for the Habs. Don’t see Montreal matching , take your picks and move on I say
September 6, 20213 yr comment_519618 So essentially KK 1st and other pick for Dvorak. Seems like a loss

So JK and a 2nd for Dvorak and a 3rd. Not so bad now, Could be a loss down the line if KK lives up to the expectations Carolina seems to have for him.

September 14, 20213 yr comment_521589 So Twitter says Mitch Marner says the Leafs are 100% vaccinated, which was followed up with a tweet that the team went with the J&J one-shot vaxx because it would be easier.......interesting........much lower efficacy and that's against the initial variant. Not sure how it holds up vs Delta and others.... 1 minute ago, JCon said: beat me to it......
