So Melnyk basically tried to launder salary through an intermediary (Vegas). He is hilarious
- jcragcrumple

Sounds more like rutherford tried to do the laundry to me.

Kane with out question has that --- don't mess with me or anyone on my team persona---

I would rather a playmaker, have team continuity and win though
- Boss34

Kane isn’t why we are losing though

I get that some don’t like him for the price he will command
That’s fair

I also don’t think it’s gonna be so easy to replace him

I’m just hopeful Botts can pull off a good return for him

Sounds like it, I wouldn't say hilarious I would say trying his best to tip toe the line with conforming to the CBA and still making out well.

It's actually pretty intelligent if he could have pulled it off
- Stripes77

I bet it still gets done. Just not all at once

Vegas probably got a 6th for their troubles.

Kane fought 3 times in 1 game vs. The Panthers.

It was a fun game to be at.

How many other fights has he won since being a sabre?
- Boss34

I don't know, but this is one of the greatest fights ever.



Just because Matt Cooke got lit up.

I still contend that fight is why everyone female doges out when he tries to fight them. Good old fashion knuckle sandwich

Botts's Kane trading strategy is either going to be brilliant or blow up in his face. By allowing these other trades to occur first, maybe he thinks that the rivals to the Penguins will "panic" and increase what they are willing to give for Kane. I assume this was has thinking from the beginning. Either that or the market (from Botts's perceptive) hasn't yet materialized for Kane.

By Monday at noon, Botts will either be a hero or goat. Welcome to the pressure of being an NHL GM Jason.

It's going to get done just in separate deals

Can't be a 3 team trade with one team eating salary.

Brassard will get traded to Vegas first then a separate deal will happen with Pittsburgh

In botts we trust? I brought up the idea of him fumbling the ball in regards to this deadline here recently and got lambasted for it. <3 days and counting til we get a better idea.

We probably won’t know exact details

I think it’s just Pitt trying to get a guy for 1/4 of his salary cap hit

We’ll see how it plays out though

If it’s about the player being on the team they just need to make handshake deals and do it in two or three separate trades. Or trades brassard to vgk for a and b. Pitt trades c to vgk for brassard. Then do a separate deal to swap around a, b and c to even it out. That should meet the Cba. But piss people off

Nice! Enjoy but keep us informed!

No problem

The guy the NyR got is a “b” prospect
Playing well in the KHL
20yrs old i believe
- jdfitz77

yes his 2 goals in 51 games is mighty impressive


He's more like a D prospect, would be C but russian so may not even get him in america

No problem
