Because Garth says he'll sign with the Sabres..... just like Babcock did.

Great! They got their man in Dan Bylsma, didn't you hear?

Ya think? It won't be automatic 1st rounder lost or other nonsensical punishments put forth?

No idea, to be honest. How is it tampering if he doesn't sign with the Preds ?

Yes, I saw that, and all the moves they made to gain those 6 points in the standings..

Nice work.

I had low hopes for the Leafs in this division going forward but with Buffalo, Montreal and Ottawa the way they are, it's not looking as bad for the next several years.

I wonder where the father-son relationship falls in the tampering guidelines actually.

Best part about Leafs getting Vesey is that it, for all intents and purposes, is 100% tampering - in all ways except legally

Because legally, no contract situation can come after a father having a chat with his son over Sunday dinner, or a couple of brothers hatching a plan over a couple cold ones.

Sweet Lou does it again!

It's not. It's just hilarious whining.

It's the leafs fault he didn't sign in Nashville, but what if he signs with hometown bruins?

It's so funny seeing people lose their poop. People were complaining about how the leafs signed soshnikov.

In fairness, if it was my player, and another team did what the Leafs did, I would question it.

As per my message above, it's not legally "tampering" by definition. But hiring the guy's dad and drafting his brother is just another Lou-phole that the Leafs have found to get the edge on the competition.

(frank)ing shrewd. Shady, but shrewd

Can't see how .. Kid did not want to play in Nashville. His right, how is it tampering.

I call it tampooning, by the other teams fans..

Nashville offered him a spot immediately, burn a year of the elc. I don't think any other team can offer him more in terms of contract (restricted by the entry keel rules) he obviously didn't want to play in Nashville. Probably wants to go to a hockey city.
