Kakko named Finland player of game after two goals (one empty netter) in 3-1 victory over Canada. Boy, he will look good next to Hischier.

both players have 10 team NTC's just to make it even more irritating

I know...stupid clauses...but that leaves 20 other teams to work with

If they can't be traded, which I would find difficult to believe, then you have to buy them out. With the expansion draft coming in a year, I think they would have to be protected because of those clauses.

WTF is wrong with him? Maybe he thinks some reverse psychology poop will land Hughes here?

I still think Smith to Toronto 50% retained is the play.

THough (and not buying him out), Smith straight up for Marleau would be a curious trade. He might actually be an answer to our 2C needs. It would be a win win for both teams. Helps Toronto with their cap, and since Marleau is only signed for 1 year would be a boon to us. If he's good, i bet you could resign him for 2-3 years at half the current AAV.

You never know, but seriously believe the Devs take Hughes. They will need a #2 center due to Hall most likely leaving as a UFA after next season (or shipped out at the trade deadline).

Patrick Marleau spent a good chunk of the time on the Leafs 4th line this year. He had 37 points this year.

That's gotta be easy right. Brooks is an insta kill. If you are going to have a side piece, always choose the hot one, so Zib it is. Everyone should marry you in this scenario and if someone disagrees, I want to see drawn out reasoning

Smith doesn't have to be protected

Shattenkirk is weird, we may need a ruling on that

he has a NMC, but he contract technically ends July 1st 2021

if the expansion draft is held, say June 22, 2021, not sure how it works

I like you when we can talk rationally about things mixed in with humor and sarcasm.

I'd bang Zib cause his frosted tips from behind could be a chick. Brooks is dead. I'm not marrying anyone

Now Hall would be an interesting target.

Yeah I know, but I don't think he's getting a contract for more than a couple million anyway after next season. The cap recapture wouldn't be a huge issue I think. [/img]
