He played winged for a season or 2 didnt he?
- Aaron_85

Yup. He was a forward on Minnesota.

If he was the Kawhi Leonard of the NHL, sure, no problem.

But he's not.

He's gonna put up points, be a defensive liability and then walk with a fat wallet.
- JohnFergusonJr

This guy is UG right?

I'm well aware of Burns' trouble in his own zone.

That being said, he still won a Norris and he is still a wookie on skates who can score 20+ goals a season.

Barrie isn't in that category and shouldn't be paid as such.
- JohnFergusonJr

If Barrie gels well with the team, the PP comes alive and he puts up points. I'd pay 8 mill. Phaneuf made 7 mill lol. Plus 8x8 is whats rumoured. Expect 7.5x6 IMO. Which is pretty decent.

Me thinks so

Honestly same people whining and hand wringing, and the same sorry trolls here goin on and on.

Really is here, much ado about nothing so... offseason ain't done yet and Dubas has been doing a decent job, lets just see how he finishes and how the team looks going into the season.
- Roadrunner75

That's an understatement.

About Roeper being terrified?

Hasn't been an offer sheet in 6 years, won't be a single one this year either.

still lots of rfa's out there....I'd be trying to Tkachuk one if I was the Habs

Big surprise, Barrie wants 8 AAV as a UFA next year.

So, as predicted, he's either going to be overpaid or a 1 year rental.

Oh my Christ no...NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

Consider the source....was also told Myers would get 7...did he?

There’s a new sheriff in town apparently.

Can’t get any lower than wanting to lose Marner. These degenerates know absolutely nothing about what’s happening behind the scenes, but they’re ready to crucify him. (frank)ing pathetic.

I assume he is going to walk.
I still dont mind the trade at all.

- mykokes

Myers got close and probably didn't have enough suitors to get up to 7. But if and when Barrie puts up 60-70 points, 8 will easily be the starting point.

Let's also remember, the cap didn't go as high as was expected and next year the cap will go up again.

I assume he is going to walk.
I still dont mind the trade at all.
- Aetherial

Nah, can't be trading great contracts like that for rentals.
