Well, to his defense he never had the chance to play for a contender.

he plays 25 minutes a night. seems pretty valuable to me.

I'd have zero issue if they sign him for one year. I don't care how much.

His playoffs performance...different story.

I personally hope MB sticks to 2yrs at 6M/yr. Markov is one knee injury from retirement and he is 35, even if he retires, salary counts against the cap

The #coyotes send Rostislav Klelsa, Chris Brown and a fourth-round pick to the #caps for Martin Erat and prospect Garrett Mitchell.

Guy who beat up Rihanna? Didn't even know he was a hockey player...

You have the same sharp wit and ability to get under people's skin.

His 990 days were legendary.

sure, why not?
- sdopus

You missed the point. He's never performed in the playoffs.

All the more reason to trade him if he doesn't sign a one year deal.

maybe on a team that doesn't have to use him as a number 1/2. he'd be perfect on a 2nd pairing and as a pp guy. a team with some actual depth will pay for that.

Right on!

15% salary kept by Vancouver made it work

If they'd done that last summer, they still have the Schnieds

I don't think Bergevin has had a choice but to be patient.

I agree but by the same token, moves like today really make me question what is really going on behind the scenes.

that's a long list, come on

Rangers had interest but were informed today that Ryan Kesler will not waive no-trade to come to New York, Post has learned.
- Symba.007

That's far from a stretch. His reason for wanting out of VAN is getting away from prying media. New York is not the answer.

they don't trust Bouillon and the kids, pretty simple, short term bandaid until the kids are ready next year

Even as a 2 he's great. Someone is going to give him a 3 year deal as UFA, doesn't mean it should be the habs.

FLA though Markstrom was ready and the old ownership wanted nothing to do with his contract.

and I don't think he is a fan of Vigneault

Me too. Even though it's minor, right now it's a head scratcher for me.

Bouillon will be moved by tomorrow.

I don't know, guess we'll have to wait for the former Yotes blogger analysis of the trade
- Symba.007

I'll go get Ron.

Kesler will be a Penguin by tomorrow.

- sdopus

So what are we talking about? I'm saying if he doesn't sign for one year trade him.

and I don't think he is a fan of Vigneault
- Symba.007

Also makes sense.

Bouillon will be moved by tomorrow.

Waivers?
