So, if Grabo gets smoked by the Leafs when they meet. Will you guys let it go?
- bixll


Only if he gets destroyed by Bozak on the same shift that Bozak scores his 55th point.

If kadri wants anything close to 5 per...trade him!
Get Franson signed and for gawd sakes get the contract talks going with Kessel...I dont want to listen to the stupidity all season long about trading him.

I agree, we have tons of scoring centers as it is, plus they grow on trees.

From reports Bozak wanted 5 also..since Kadri does not have any leverage, he wont get that and if he chose to sit instead of play for less (3-4) thats just idiotic, and I dont see that happening.

If Nonis didnt put the leafs in such a tight spot I think it would be easy to give him 4milx6 years, its a risk but should be good value in years 3-6.

Franson could easily be getting a contract like 4x4 or 4x6years also, based on all that has happened so far with FA/RFA.

Nonis really only has a couple options, play hard ball and force a low deal on both, and maybe piss off a couple of his best assets for the future or find a dance parter for Liles to pay Kadri/Franson a fair contact

Henrique got 6 X 4m...which is very different from 5 X 4.5m. The Devils locked up at least 2 UFA years. If you're only gonna lock up 1 UFA year why bother?

Far better than saying, did you forget you batteries..

When I started selling the VCR, and people that bought one would ask about set up instructions.

I used to tell them not to worry, there is an instructional video in the box to show you...

They would always say thanks and leave. Then we would have a chuckle.
