Bill,
No comments on the Rinaldo and Rosehill contracts?

- Marc D


I'll comment in tomorrow's Musings. Both deals make sense for both sides.

Rosehill will make an appropriate amount for a 12th/13th forward and if he ends up being waived and assigned to Phantoms at some point, the salary falls below the threshold where anything would count against the cap. Rinaldo got a nice little bump in salary (relative to being a role player just finishing in ELC); he earned it.

These kids don't know Rush, and ain't that sad!

Our first stop is in Bogota
To check Colombian fields
The natives smile and pass along
A sample of their yield
Sweet Jamaican pipe dreams
Golden Acapulco nights
Then Morocco, and the East,
Fly by morning light

Just typing that makes me feel good!!

Well, it's great that the team plays well in front of him, and he's played very well, but like BP87 said, not ready to anoint him just yet.

When Samuel/Lavi anoints Mason/David as King of the Nettites, Kingsaulov will be irate. Not even a harp would calm him.

Today, yes. Along with Sudafed & Tylenol. Three weeks of this crap. Next follow up in a month. It's snot funny. Pardon my sinus expression.

I didn't see dollar amounts but when I saw Rosehill for two years yesterday all I could think of was Jody Shelly. Why would they want him on a two year contract? I guess the number is so low it doesn't matter, it's just one of 50.

Shelly got 3 years for over a million, so I am considering the Rosehill deal a relative win.

I think there is plenty of room between the moon and nothing. Braydon Schenn and a 2nd for example. The Coyotes are completely bereft of young offensive talent.
- Flyers_01

Absolutely agree. My Winter Classic Schenn jersey doesn't like that idea but that's definitely a more fair offer and far from "nothing in return" from a Coyotes perspective.

Can't wait to see what Klode gets in his next deal.

We need these guys in the lineup so that they piss off the opposition enough to take cheap shots at our stars.

With Rinaldo that stuff happens.
The other teams were running Giroux because of Rinaldo's hits.
