just like you said going to arbitration starts a war with the GM that's what happen with Ryan O'Reilly and he never forgot

Arbitration is never a good idea IMO.

If I was a GM I would avoid it all costs.

It's easy to trade the player than deal with the negative effects from it IMO.

Supposedly back when Richard Clothier (spelling? F@ck it idc) he was always ripping Corey Potter in everyone of his blogs, and Potter emailed him saying how bad of a person he was. Now, for those of us who remember, Clothier was a little off his rocker. So who knows if it was true or not...

Some depth defenseman who played waaaaaaaayyyyyyyy too much on one of those really bad Oiler teams. They all just seem to mesh together now.

Surprised Foligno isn't on there. Wonder if it means they are close on a deal?

The team can file tomorrow for team elected arbitration but Murray doesn't strike me as a guy who gets told what to pay someone

And once the arbitrator has ruled on a players contract he can't be traded for a full season right? Maybe I'm off on that not sure.

A player traded during period between arbitration filing and actual final award has to have agreed to a contract with current or new team (1

(2) he can't just be traded away without a new contract first

Schwartz would've been perfect here for us damn

He can only get a 1 year deal which takes him to UFA status

There still hope so if Scrooge McDuck says no to Hoffman we could potential trade for him?

That's only with offer sheets and the team that had their rights matches

Nope he would agree to the contract and if that contract didn't have a NTC he could be shipped the second he signs it, but chances are he would be aware of it.

He has to agree to the contract before the arbitrator rules, and then the contract can be traded.
