When are the panthers going to Quebec ?

Just pull the band aid off already Gary

RealityChecker brought up a good point alot of it is ownership greed but I'm sure Bettman has his hand in that greed too. Technically you could relocate 5 teams to Quebec but bettman and his merry band of idiot owner wnat those expansion fees. Chances are by the time Quebec gets a team the expansion fees will be 1 billion instead of the 800 mil Seattle paid.

Joke.

I suspect Hamilton/Burlington/Southern Ontario will get a team before/conjunction with Quebec City.

The Paletta family has been in ongoing discussions with the NHL for sometime quietly over the idea....

😡🤬🤬

Lol that pisses me off but they still could have won game 7 and they no showed ...like 9 shots after 2 periods in a game 7 to win the cup is unacceptable
- Redmile247

what do you know about game 7 unacceptable?

A bit on Vantel's guy for the draft from a scout.

17-year-old Moritz Seider recorded 18:31 of ice time – second among Mannheim's D-men and third on the team overall – on the first D-pairing in Game 1 of the DEL semifinals on Tuesday. Exciting to see he's being relied on when it matters the most.

Vegas should not be exempt anymore lol that’s a joke

I kinda hope Seattle goes through the proper expansion lulls ...teams like the coyotes and canucks have started over and are getting better and to have both Vegas and Seattle both come in to the division and be playoff teams ahead of them would be garbage IMO

Have they said who is going to the central division once Seattle is in ? Kinda looks like Vegas should geographically but why would you put them in the pacific then ??

Calgary and Edmonton are close but why split up that rivalry
- Redmile247

Arizona will move to the Central

Thanks Chompsey. That makes me feel better.

Have confirmed Canucks/Comets plan to keep Mitch Eliot out of games. He will practice with team.

Reason for no games is CBA-related.
Basically, if he plays in a game this season, he'll be eligible for expansion draft in a few years. There's also a waiver eligibility component.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I thought this was an interesting post. I don't know much about this guy but have seen his name pop up a few times. I find it curious that Canucks are concerned about protecting this guy and he hasn't even played a game yet. Something to maybe keep an eye on next year.
- VANTEL

They want an extra year of waiver exempt. Sounds like a guy they expect to be up and down from Utica.

On a seperate note, what will it take to dump a salary like LE on Seattle?

$650m
- Nighthawk

You sure? I thought I read 800 mil? could be wrong...

edit:

You are correct it was 650 mil.

It was the Arena costs that spiked to 850 mil.

My bad.

or to wherever he's taking up a roster spot, we have enough "leaders". Hopefully management does something with him this summer.

Good interview.

Be interesting to see if we can compete against nsh or stl as they battle for home ice. My guess is we lose both, but maybe we see a new pp1 debut

Not many teams with that kind of space. Seattle has a lot year one, much like the onights, to take on contracts.

eat $ then, or simply waive/sit him.

well ya, the original point was:Seattle may actually take him, what would the cost be?

Likely more. It's not going to happen again for around 10 years, seems to be the pattern. Relocation could happen, but sure doesn't seem likely given the owners for whatever reason.

Another new face on the blue line tonight as Brogan Rafferty gets set to make his NHL debut.

Here's the new blog with background on him and the Cancuks' other NCAA signee, goaltender Jake Kielly:
