Seriously though, Russia has a huge (frank)ing cultural problem with domestic abuse (weirdly enough both ways) it's insane.

Yeah I don't really understand it. They're all despondent, 250 lbs and completely insane.

I knew this lady who must have been maybe 300lbs and she beat the poop out of her twink man in public in the main areas of the apartment complex. It was weird.

I don't think you are using the term "twink" correctly.

Did you see the various reports about the paramilitary soccer hooligan gangs that were training in forests before the last FIFA World Cup?

It was pretty weird. You had to wonder how bad everyday life has to be, if you want to train in a forest to beat up English soccer hooligans.

I'm working on the assumption somebody offer-sheets Kapanen and/or Johnsson.

- Atomic Wedgie


Doubt it. RFA compensation rules are pretty scary too. Kapanen at 5 mil over 7 years equates to a 1st, second and third. on a 7 year contract, anything over $6.1M AAV equates to 2 firsts, a second, and a third. 7.5 and up over 7 years is 4 firsts.

I can't imagine Kapanen getting much less than that. a 7 year contract has to be under $3.6M for a team to not give up a first.


Put in Marner at $10-11 million.

- Atomic Wedgie


yep


LTIR Horton.

- Atomic Wedgie

Probably done already.

Try to get rid of Zaitsev or Marleau.

- Atomic Wedgie


Maybe both. I think there is a better chance than some think that they'll both be gone.



And bring up a poopton of kids next year: Bracco, Rosen.

- Atomic Wedgie


It's the D they need. I'm guessing Rosen is a lock. Sandin and Liljegren both get time on the big club too.

But even then I think they need another dman.

- Atomic Wedgie


Well. I hear they're pretty good. They even got a brand new, state of the art facility, just like the Leafs.

They don't really have an economy so much as they have an energy company that powers a government.

I work with a Russian guy, very nice guy, I was working on something with him, and we got to chatting about the issues with Russian NHLers beating their wives.

There is another semi-feminist woman I work with, who joined the conversation, and I basically gave her the summary - "We're just talking about how it's quite legal in Russia to beat your wife up, it's a very weird culture when it comes to these things".

You could already see her jaw dropping.

The guy pipes up, in thick Russian accent, very casually - "yeah, but it's okay for a wife to beat her husband too". Which seemed to suggest to him it's all okay.

Nothing much followed, because the woman wouldn't say a word. But it was amazing to witness.

The Leafs have 8 million in cap space.

Marleau, Zaitsev and Brown should all be traded.

Horton on LTIR.

That's up to 26.5 in cap space.

Should be alright.

Wow a lot of teams have so much cap space. 23 teams with over 10m
The cup champs have 19.

Dreger is going to love all the teams that can afford marner.

Remember all the leafs fans saying the leafs cap problems arent as bad as what the media was saying.

WEll.


- Fakepartofme


But they have to sign 8 players. The roster is only 15/23 active. 19 million is nice but it'll get eaten up quickly I'm sure. Binnington is probably 4 million.
