Yzermandius19 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) EJ even right now, is at best a third pairing RHD on the Avs, making $6 million over the next four years. God awful contract that needs to go, and sooner rather than later. Edited July 1, 2019 by Yzermandius19

Indeed, not great, and here I was thinking Kapanen and Johnsson were going to be invasive hockey parent problem children, but no, they both sign multiyear team friendly deals which are looking pretty damn good now, if Doonskoi is getting 3.9 for four years.

Yzermandius19 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Colin Wilson coming back to Colorado on a one year deal, didn't see that coming.
Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Montreal signs Kieth Kinkaid to a one year at $1.75 million. Good moneyball signing. F**k Haberta.
Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Jake Gardiner is still available. Montreal should sign J-Gards to play with Weber. F**k Jaberta.
Yzermandius19 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Why? This is something Two Phones would do. Overpaying fourth liners for the fail. *sigh* Edited July 1, 2019 by Yzermandius19

Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Two Phones; Patty Marleau; three years $18.75 million. Dubeezus: Jason Spezza; one year $700k. Moneyball, baybee.

Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Jason Spezza is the new Tyler Ennis, and that's an upgrade, since Spezza is actually a center, same number of goals/points as Connor Brown, at one third the price, 4C.
Yzermandius19 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) Please don't sign any more UFAs Avs, especially if they get term, just save the cap space. Edited July 1, 2019 by Yzermandius19
Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 You know Babcock will be playing the shit out of Spezza, but better Jason Spezza than Freddie Gauthier in that case.

I warming up to this Spezza signing, when it's one year at the league minimum, no worries. He's not the Spezza he used to be, but he can be the 4C and play higher in a pinch, can still play on the power play,takes faceoffs, and he's right handed, which, the Leafs have Moore and Mikhyev as left shooting right wingers now.
QuebecOverCanada Posted July 1, 2019 Author Report Posted July 1, 2019 So much going on... Can't even keep up :p

No we don't want Gardiner here please... It would be so bad to have him. He causes so many turn overs.
Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Just now, QuebecOverCanada said: No we don't want Gardiner here please... It would be so bad to have him. He causes so many turn overs. He makes glaring mistakes from time to time, but most of the time he actually skates the puck out of trouble and gets it up the ice, he's actually better defensively than Reilly is, he doesn't actually make tons of mistakes, it's just that when he does make a mistake, it's a doozy.
Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 Bottom line tho, Montreal needs a skating LHD to play with Weber, J-Gards could work with Weber, Weber separates people from the puck, Gardiner moves it up the ice, then passes to Weber who unloads the howitzer.
Dougie93 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 I'd take J-Gards back on the Leafs if he could be signed for what he makes now, Gardiner has real value at $4 million, but that's the ceiling, if he has to have big money, than more power to him, he's definitely a good guy, I wish him well.
Yzermandius19 Posted July 1, 2019 Report Posted July 1, 2019 (edited) This Bellemare deal is pissing me off, why can't they just play Kamanev? Edited July 1, 2019 by Yzermandius19

Bellemare was a decent grinder for VGK but I see no point in signing a 6 goal 15 point UFA at $2.9 million, as you say, surely those sorts of points can be found internally. It's like the Leafs sign Kenny Agostino to the league minimum, pretty sure he can do what Bellemare does, at half the price, fully buried in the A as needed. Edited July 1, 2019 by Dougie93
