Both of those comparables are strictly UFA years. Kane's RFA contract was 6.3m or 11.09% of the cap.

If any of the current RFAs want their contracts to end before the UFA period starts, the salaries should reflect that no UFA years have been purchased.

AM as an RFA got 11.6m with no cups.

If i were Marner i too want a 5 yr deal. Idc about staggering cuz of other contracts. I want to hit the 2nd home run sooner. Take the risk of no injury & not be 28+ in a cap world too far away to predict.

5/10m would be his worth.

Are you insulted because you think Matthews is as good as McDavid? Or do you think he's so much worse that saying he's not quite as good is too much of an understatement?

Yeah bro..

The big one is already starting to bud. But the ones out in the bush I still need to figure out which ones are male, I grew them from seed. But there’s a poop-ton if bears back there and I’m afraid to get mauled, lol..

They’re like 100ft from where my neighbour baits bears.. I gotta talk to him about that, lol.

Sounds like the Canadian version of my Nicaraguan buddy. Had a banana tree grove but didn't like going back there because of all the large Boa Constrictors lol.

Getting high and paranoid in the woods about bears would be fun. Your neighbour should really stop baiting animals that can rip you in half.

Or the same over 8 years.
5 years should have been 10.5 - 10.75.

But it is what it is

Nah, 11m.

North American deserts rock. Ive been a fine dinning chef for close to 25 years and i've always prefered them to French deserts. There's something about baklava though.

Strawberry cheesecake is the king, then there's about twenty others i could interchange depending on my mood. I'd probably have to bump baklava to top ten now that i think about it.

Ah ok. With you, I honestly had no idea which way you'd be going.

I agree he's a step down, which is why I said he wasn't as good. He's like, one tier below.

So not sure why you're laughing like I said something crazy. We agree.

I give it Z Infinity, but couldn't find the infinity symbol on my phone keyboard. But it happens in all possible timelines.

I don't disagree. I figured he'd come in at $9.8m. I was hoping for longer term obviously, but the more you look at the way the RFA market is shifting, the more you know no one wants to give up their UFA years if they don't have to.

Lol.. he really should..

But he’s a good guy and i go fishing on Muskoka with him sometimes. And he just purchased 1k worth of firewood off me, so maybe I just won’t gonback there often, or I’ll buy a rifle.

But yeah, he shouldn’t be baiting bears so close to our house, it’s about 300m from me.

I love the dumb hate for marner of these fools.
"Trade him"

Lol Dummies

- Fakepartofme


I hate the "talking heads"....


I want someone on radio or TV to ask Dreger flat out... where are all the offer sheets in excess of 12-13M? and then when he fumbles around looking for an intelligent sounding response... ask him if the paranoia was media created? Without naming sources how many GMs said they were making OfferSheets?

Hes the best player we have at driving the play. Hes defensive, hes plays the pk and scores 90 plus points.
- Fakepartofme

True. Just cuz he doesn’t play C it doesn’t change his value based on how he plays. He is one of the very few wingers where it’s an insult to go there. What more do ppl expect? Win FO’s.

1. Pumpkin pie
2. Cheesecake
3. Hot fudge brownie Sundae
4. Ice cream waffle sandwich
5. Devil's Food Cake

Especially because bears can cripple you with an attack before you even know they were there, and then eat you alive.
