He's on pace for 44 points this season.


He has a similar stat line next year he will not be making 6+ mil.

David Clarkson agrees

See Callahan, Ryan. This guy is younger, more talented and does not have the injury history. Callahan got just under 6.

No one will trade for ROR until they can negotiate with him on an extension.

They would. He just won't be worth as much. Look at the return for Callahan on an expiring contract.

What return ? They got St. Louis but had to give up 2 first as well.

That's my point. The return was poor but the trade happened.

that's about the same pace Clarkson was on and he almost got that..

2 different players and Clarkson was coming off a 30 goal season and a 15 goals in 48 games season.


With the deflating Canadian Dollar the cap will be staying the same or decreasing instead of rising.


The chances of ROR cashing in huge become less and less if his play flat lines at the 45 point mark.

See Callahan, Ryan. This guy is younger, more talented and does not have the injury history. Callahan got just under 6.

Again 2 different players.


ROR is a pain in the ass to play against while Callahan plays a more reckless type game. Same goes for Clarkson.

ROR has 62 career penalty mins 62!

Mike Richards on waivers

If Richards retires before end of contract, especially in penultimate or last year, LA gets dinged with significant cap recapture penalty.
