MDW will not be happy about Purple Hayes signing with Philly but then again he might with that contract.

Hayes: 7 years younger, 55pt career high vs. Nelson's 53pt career high and the Isles signed Nelson for $14M less than Hayes

I think the Lehner hold up is his agent wants a long term deal and Lou looking at Robins past wants a short term keep proving you can stay clean deal.

They will agree on a term and get it done before it gets ugly imho.

Lee that’s the tough one at this point that everyone thought was a slam dunk.
Still think it gets done.

I cannot blame Lou at all. Robin really needs to show more for a long term deal. Lee is a tough one and I can also understand Lou not wanting to give too much term to Lee.

I get both sides. If your lehners camp you played great and stayed clean last year and on Lou’s (Isles) side you have to worry about about hanging the Isles #1 goalie position and trust on him. I think a deal will get done

Sorokin possibly coming over next year is a factor as well. A 3 year deal for Robin to me is more than fair. I would love to see more 3 year type deals but hockey might need a long work stoppage for that to happen. We might be on the way with this Hayes deal.

According to Lehner nothing has even been discussed yet. I also think it’ll get done along with Lee as well.

What's the point in discussing things when you can just torch all your leverage through the media?

His agent cannot be happy with those comments.
- ses111

(frank) his (frank)ing (frank) of an agent.

She is getting a concealed carry soon, you better be nice.
- mdw7413

Hot.

Oh and mine has her restricted as well, though is legally unable to get a concealed carry. Thus the doppelgänger effect continues.

Both share the same general shape, hair colour and appearance. His due to suffering from a tragic gravy addiction, mine due to the harsh Canadian climate.

Both are fitness/kickboxing instructors, which doesn’t jive with the above narrative, but (frank) it.

Both are fond aficionados of small arms, and routinely remind MDW and I of this when it’s time to do dishes.

Both hate hockey with a passion. Mine does so in a conventional manner, while MDW’s does so by choosing to be a Ranger fan.


(frank)ing eerie, eh?

Isles will be set if Lee does the same thing.

Well ultimately he doesn’t have to accept an offer so that’s not necessarily true. Him throwing that out there is publicly telling the fan base I want to stay here but nobody has even called me. If anything he’s leveraging the islanders and pushing his agenda. I’m assuming Lameriello isn’t too happy about it.

Lee will not, and nor should he. If Lou won’t pony up the cash to keep him, then Holland will.

It has been arranged.

I know, I'm mostly joking. But it does seem like an odd thing to publicly announce if your negotiation hasn't even started yet. But in reality, it's great news and I think we're all reading into it a little too far

Why are you up so early? Have you tried Slipknot whiskey yet?

I'm not sure about that. Lenher didn't say anything harmful to the team.

Lee will take a 4 year deal and like it.

Moose (frank)ed my bear fence while I was sleeping. This resulted in a large bear getting past the fence, after which he decided to get into my screened in porch. Got all this poop sorted out by 5:25 AM.

Kinda hard to go back to sleep after all that though.

Now tell me more about this whiskey.

No he didn’t but Lou as we all know is a private person and doesn’t leak anything to the press. I remember him losing his shat in the past with players that leaked stuff to the press on those Stanley cup devils teams.

The (frank) he will. He MIGHT consent to 6 years, but I’m thinking he get 7. Which even the is too short a time IMO.

Well that and the absence of preschools.
