Yeah I just saw he is no longer on FB. As long as this isn't some clever trick by him to come back and say it was all a joke, then I am happy. Maybe he went to fat camp for the summer, and they don't allow use of the interwebs.

Or Maybe he is legitimately retiring from writing on the internet?










.......Naaaaahhh, he'll be back!
Any money says he will will mark his return due to "overwhelming demand from his readership"?

Hey, hey, hey, lets be a little optimistic here and think things like he won't be back or he got the flesh eating virus, in which case he only has 7-10 years to live.

Lecavalier (20% retained salary) for Joensuu and a Conditional pick 5th

If Vinny plays 70 games or more, 5th becomes a 4th

plz

Is that 20% retention over the whole length of his contract? If so, I could definitely stomach a cap hit of $3.6mil for another 2 or 3 years before either trading him to a team looking to hit the cap floor or buying him out. Especially if it means LD gets an extra season of junior and a solid big, skilled mentor when he arrives!

The only issue would be having enough room to resign both of Schultz and Petry without pushing the cap too much.

What a dummy. Now instead of getting traded to some sh!thole he has to play where he wanted to when he had a choice. The jokes on him!

Players who have spent their whole careers in the Leastern conference and in their 30's, don't really wanna play in the west, the travel alone would kill them pampered a$$holes.

Thank you, captain obvious. I'm commenting on the deal itself; not the likelihood of it happening.

Regardless, there aren't many other options for the guy. The elite teams don't have the cap space or holes at 2C and the mediocre teams don't have at least one of the prior. The way I see it, he's either gonna have to settle for playing on a sh!tty team or force Philly to do something more drastic.

I like discussing fantasy worlds where gingers aren't beaten like the step children they are, and they can get a tan in the sun sometimes too.

You are not near old enough, or have even close to the intellectual development to understand this.

Wouldn't go that far. He's already sensing he's not wanted. I know EDM is still a long shot, but they could probably sell him on the opportunity to play with such a talented offensive line-up whilst still getting top 6 time
