seems to me that if he can be offer sheeted he can be traded. would be silly otherwise.

I would agree but then what happens? You trade for him and he's still an RFA. Does your team now take him to Arb? Or what? Because if not then he is open season for more offer sheets. There has to be some rules around it.

dumb move imo

he'll take the 1 year and happily walk into UFA territory next summer. Also, the avs cant move him post award.. they will end up losing him for nothing

he has to take the 2 years to be a UFA

Hes put in his time. UFA next year.

yeah, think he takes 5 when he knows even an arbitrator will likely give him closer to 6
- Dozzer

Landeskog makes $5.5M on max term.

I imagine if they offered RoR the same deal, he'd take it.
He can't possibly think he deserves more than Landeskog, and Duchene @$6M.

and if he does, then (frank) him. All about the money. That team will be very good for a LONG time.

Ya, I'm curious how that works out.

ya that'd be a bit (frank)ed.

I guess that's when there is no Arb that trade is possible. The QO sets up possibility to negotiate or trade.

Arb takes trade out of the running.

Personally no, but I think capgeek or Bob Mackenzie tweeted about it yesterday/this morning.

ROR, is 23 yrs old. Born Feb 7, 91...

right

CapGeek ‏@capgeek
Yes. RT @tigervixxxen what happens if O'Reilly choses a 1 year award? He's a RFA again in 2015?

Personally no, but I think capgeek or Bob Mackenzie tweeted about it yesterday/this morning.
- Bigzby

Went through their tweets and all said one or two year deal. I think he's still RFA if he takes one.

When was Doughty asked about playing the Leafs?

Uuummm why did this come up?

Thinking about the cup final that would have been if Bernier hadn`t gotten injured, obviously.

Wait didn't they actually do well against the kings when they played them?

LA was thankful, they didn't have to face the Leafs Power and might.

@Komas Taberle @Cloud09 Great we beat the eventual cup champions....



*Looks at draft*

*Sees Leafs are picking 8th*

Doughty is pretty confident. He said he'd have no problem shutting down Getz and Perry. Knows what they are gonna do and will stop them everytime.

i think there will be a lot of cheap options this year on teams looking for depth, even with the cap going up.

guys off the scrap heap like Richards,Malone,Havlat.

NO just don't remember him shutting them down so it was an odd comment to make.
