You are what 17 now Rock? Don't worry, when the Cup drought hits 100 years, you will only be 79!

For Giroux, thats awesome. Sign.

See that is why Homer got Streit's rights. He has the same agent as Giroux. He is going to take the negotiated Streit contract, cross out Streits name and pencil in Giroux's.

Nothing in the CBA that says you cant....

Seemed light hearted to me, anyways. But, maybe it would've snowballed.

Dreger tweeted an agreement had been reached, then confirmed 4-years.

Leed tweeted $22M.

turned 18 in May

this sickens me... 3 years wouldve been great, that 4th year better mean he took a bit of a hit, say instead of 5.5 maybe 5M or 4.75M

watch it be 4 years 5.75M/yr

Tim Thomas likes Chic-Fil-A.
Sara Palin likes Chic-Fil-A.
Tim Thomas is a hockey player.
Sara Palin has caused the injury of hockey players.

Coincidence?

Homer loves those, so highly likely yes.

If it's an even $5.5M per, just for my understanding:
If he gets bought out after 2 years, he'd be owed $11M. He'd get 2/3 of that ($7.33) over twice the length left (4 years) for a cap hit of $1.83M? Just already being negative.

It's on TSN that it's 4years... man that's a long term. Please stay healthy.

He can't get bought out after two years can he? We'd have to buy him out in the summer of 2014.

Regular buyout, not CBO.

I think he was saying regular-course buy-out, hence the residual cap-hit.

I just want to say that I apologize for the contract that Streit signed. Trust me, you guys will soon see what islander fans have been talking about

Then I hope Tanya Harding on put on retainer in case we need her.

We're currently -$2,552,262 over the cap, and i believe you're only allowed to spend 10% over the cap during the offseason. So that'd be 6.43M. So the Flyers have to make some moves before this can be finalized.
Im pretty sure you have to wait till end of the season to use an amnesty, no?
Maybe Meszaros gets traded?
