Remember the guy that said he can’t wait to laugh at the media when there’s ZERO offer sheets.

Marner tensions mount? On what? Which lake to water ski at? Which golf course to check out? Which beer to get $hit faced on? It's July Ek. There's nothing going on right now. πŸ˜‚

I heard there was a lot of tension this morning. Then there was a big splash, that you won't hear in public, and everything is OK now.

Listen to the deceased fowl one, for he speaks wise words, rooted in truth.
Listen less to the false prophet who claims knowledge from the "buzz" he hears, which, surely is the ramblings of a madman who is clearly jealous of his partners battery operated boyfriend.

Given it would have been before Laine's slump, if you came to me with that offer? Done. No problem. Get a bit younger, more talented, and no creepy relationship with his sister with Laine. So yeah, I'd have taken that all day every day.

If Habs were serious about Laine, they'd offer sheet him...however that would take an actual Gm with brains to accomplish...so that strikes us out

Agreed. I would prefer giving up two 1st a 2nd and a 3rd instead of Domi

General question if someone knows...has it ever happened for a GM to make 2 offer sheets in a single off season? Im pretty sure not but wanna make sure

Not that I know of. But it may have happened. It's just that we didn't hear about it publicly.

Hey Eklund ... when you open quotation marks you have to close them. Even if it's not really a quote, just something you made up.

Laine coming off career low shooting %.

Domi had a career high.

Wait a minute EK seems to have broken his rule about not following up on rumours once he has reported them

Marners problem is he is letting his father and agent run the show! They are going to destroy a kids dream come true when he finds himself traded to Winnipeg, making less money, little in endorsements and no superstars to pass the puck too. Careful what you ask for Mitch.

Something tells me he will be fine where ever he goes.

Maple.leags are going to pay him. I'm guessing g they settle right before camp starts at 10.5

Cant blame him.for wanting to get paid everyone else on that team did.

The issue here is how bad the Habs need a center, otherwise it's Laine over Domi all day every day.


First 3 seasons. 18yo - 21yo Laine 110 goals
First 3 seasons 20yo -23 yo Domi 36 goals

Laine will rebound just fine after a down year. If you consider a down year scoring 6 less goals than the other guys first 3 seasons combined.

It's silly to judge Laines worst season in comparison to Domis best. Especially when Laine is 3 years younger to boot. One can make many bad decision's playing tricksies like this.
