I love canned cranberry sauce. The real kind sucks and anyone that prefers the real kind can go fornicate themselves with a stick.

There will be contract talks coming for Skinner in the new year.

That's crazy, who would have thought that?

Call me strange but fresh or canned cranberry and fresh and boxed stuff are two things ill take either way.

As long as the pies are fresh its all good in the hood.

$8.5 is a discount with how the cap is

If he hits open market, there will be teams lining up on his doorstep since they know they aren't on Panarin's destination list.

$9.5-$10.5 would be what he gets if he hits the open market and puts in 40 goals with 70 assists.

Right or wrong, that's just how free agency works

- Stripes77


70 assists? Not this season.

Scoring 40 would up his value immensely, but if he ends at 70 pts total, I doubt he can justify a double digit million dollar contract. That's as far as I'll go. 7.5-9.5, will depend on the UFA market, his production for the rest of the year and the salary cap situations around the league (not every team will have the money to give).

I meant 70 points!

Sooner or later Eichel will start to take away a few of Skinners goals but most likely Skinner would get some of Eichel's assists.

Considering he is tied for 2nd in the league in goals? Yes he is the best pending UFA on the market.

There are a few pending RFA's though

There is also Panarin though

- Stripes77



Anyone worried about skinner's point totals the last few years?

31 points
51 points
63 points
49 points.

Under 9 million isnt a steal in my opinion.

He is playing with John Jack Eichel

Clearly infalates everyone's stats

That makes sense.

And yes, for as long as they are together, Skinner will benefit with some nice feeds. Will be interesting to see what Cap Guru Botts can do.

No. He has been on bad teams with no center help and still scored 37g two seasons ago. Also remember, by the end of last year the Canes had moved on and were putting him on the 3rd line.

With Jack, I'd imagine 60 is the low water mark.

Botts should be gunning for 8x8. $8.5M should be the max and even then that might be too much.

Oh I’m not disparaging your job, it’s a play on whatever helps you sleep at night, assume you bartend at night.

But again man, I don’t get your whole schtick here?

You’re gonna deny wanting Alzner?

You gonna deny two weeks ago saying this team would have 0 chance against Pitt, who’s lost what, 9 of 10?
