Being a fan of Carolina, you're probably a bit unfamiliar have having high-priced top talent.


When you're a team that spends to the cap and you have a lot of high-end players it's very easy to have very little space.

His salary is replacement level; i.e. basically the mimimum for a roster spot. Your cap sace argument is irrational.

I don't believe it works that way. I'm pretty sure once you play that 11th game you've now burned one year of the ELC regardless of where you play. I could be wrong about that though.

Correct. You are wrong.

Can you provide the factual information that says so?

Bergeron has 3 cups if he plays on that team instead. Kopitar, E.Staal, Getzlaf, Thornton...

I don't feel like Toews himself is the determining factor there.
- BINGO!

Yeah great call. In his Conn Smythe year in '10 he had little impact, his 7 points in games 4-6 vs the Bruins in '13 were dismal and his 10 goals in the '15 playoffs make him marginal. You really have a handle on Toews as a player. It could've been anyone there and the Hawks win. 👍

You would have 5 cups if it was Bozak

Let's be honest. In the hockey-starved, dog days of August, we're all scraping the bottom of the barrel for topics to discuss. If nothing else this guy has given us a few weeks of fodder for hockey based debate.

In years gone by this time would have been filled with speculation about the imminent return of Foppa and Richard Park jokes. This kid Vesey is a hero. #2016TopicOfTheSummer #VeseyNeverForget

Better PPG than E Kane...

He’ll be signing an elc. All elc’s are 2-way.

There is no option for Vesey’s contract to slide.

The 11 game (actually 10 game) rule only applies to 18 and 19 year old players.

As a reference, just use Panarin's contract. Pretty much the same template, except he didn't get the max.

Pantera is in his mid twenties playing against other adults. That's not development.

I am the game.
- BINGO!

Good Triple H reference

The type of contract vesey will sign will be very similar to Panarin

If he falters, the headline will read.

"VESE(y)CTOMY" - Coach cuts prospect's manhood, due to lack of potency."

Listen, by the time the Leafs are ready to truly compete, JVR will be past his prime. So you might as well trade him for a pile of overpaid, mediocre talent now.
