Fascinating. Krug has 3 more years at $6.5, Laine 2 more years at $8.7. I'm going to take a firm stand and answer a solid "maybe".

In a heartbeat, but Krug would never waive his NTC to go to Columbus.
Why not? I'm not sure what difference it would make to him.RAFritchey wrote: Mon Jul 15, 2024 4:49 pmIn a heartbeat, but Krug would never waive his NTC to go to Columbus.
Ask the reverse though. Why would he?BluesSK wrote: Mon Jul 15, 2024 5:08 pmWhy not? I'm not sure what difference it would make to him.RAFritchey wrote: Mon Jul 15, 2024 4:49 pmIn a heartbeat, but Krug would never waive his NTC to go to Columbus.

Can't wait for them to hire Babcock as Director of Player Development/IT Consultant.Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Wed Jul 24, 2024 8:54 am I now have a new organization to actively hate and root on their downfall.
That's an incredibly stupid hire. Just sayin.....................Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: I now have a new organization to actively hate and root on their downfall.
This is so gross and Edmonton will get everything they deserve when Bowman decimates that franchise.Dread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Wed Jul 24, 2024 8:54 am I now have a new organization to actively hate and root on their downfall.
Tim should be careful with that shit... he could wind up with a court appointed DNA test.Dave's a mess wrote: Thu Jul 25, 2024 2:47 pm
Weird misspelling of his name. "Travis" is not all that close to the proper spelling "NHLTIMsboy"
Sounds like this is Necas' last deal with the Canes. Either they trade him or he walks.Dave's a mess wrote: Couple of big signings today:
Not a big surprise for the guy that looked like he might steal the Calder Trophy from Bedard for a little while last season.
That will walk Necas straight up to UFA. Risky on both sides.
He's been part of trade rumors for the last year or so. You're right it's highly unlikely he's on the team after the trade deadline in 2026 unless they're a primetime Cup contender.BillP. wrote: Mon Jul 29, 2024 2:39 pmSounds like this is Necas' last deal with the Canes.

One too many headshots from Stu Grimson in his career.

Super smart of the NHL/Sportsnet to can one of the best and most popular broadcasters for basically doing the same thing that Woj does every NBA draft. I understand there's some nuance and distinction, but this is stupid.One source briefed on the draft night situation said that no gambling impropriety was discovered or any intent for Marek to gain financially from what happened.
Yeah and I mute Woj and any of these other guys on draft nights for spoiling picks. Fire em all, put em in prison for all I care. Pick spoiling is worse than if he had been gambling, imo.Dave's a mess wrote: Thu Aug 01, 2024 10:09 amDread_Pirate_Westley wrote: Thu Aug 01, 2024 10:03 am More and more of these kinds of stories come out each season.
