If the US starts printing money to ride out covid(if Biden is elected) then inflation devalues the actual cost of the contract, right now inflation is 3 percent per year, in 6 years 100 dollars is only worth 82 dollars, if we hit 6 percent inflation(a real possibility) that 100 dollars is only worth 64 dollars.

OEL at 6m real value would not be ugly...

This is simple economics and was a prime driver in the cap increasing.

Nice insight if those numbers are facts thx👍

Dam Habs spending stupid $$ like there is no Covid market. Well you'd guess TT would want same seeing this deal.
- NuckUp

Supply & demand will decide his next contract. JA is getting a non-covid deal imo.

We did fine in the PO's with Toffoli injured...why worry about whether he stays or not?
- LordHumungous

I rather we get him for value & for me that is 5m or a bit less if we are lucky enough. Term will dictate the overall wisdom or lack of.

Too bad he is done. Good kid
- CanuckDon

He played some pretty damn good hockey as a Canuck. Probably some of his best. Got us Horvat. Best to leave it on a high note Kid.

You guys see what Bergevin just did in Mont with Anderson. Wtf lol 1 goal 38 mill holy crap

That are, it's crazy.

If you put 10k in the bank and leave it for a year, due to inflation, in 10 years it's only worth 7k in real value, the crazy thing is if you leave it for 20 years, that 10k is only worth 4k in real value.

It's the real reason we don't have penny candy, pop isn't a quarter a bottle and cars cost so much.... boonerbuck would love this conversation but it's all a bit of a scam to keep people believing they're earning more while their dollars are actually worth less...

Thanks

Sutter type deal

Injuries (frank)ed him. He was elite up until then. Saw a couple of posts on HF that said he was top 5 or top 10 in all time sv% before his injury problems in NJ

As much as Gillis gets praised for it, that trade probably looks a lot more even if he stays healthy

Dude has had multiple injuries and is coming off of a bad year and they hand him that contract. I like the player but that’s insane to me in this market

That is true forsure. My daughter is 5. Ever since she was born on her birthday my dad gives her a gold bar. We put it in a safety deposit box and the idea is once shes 18 itll be worth roughly 80k and can pay for school. The first bar was worth about 1400 I believe and thats when he bought all 18 bars. Now I wanna say they are worth anout 2700. If it was money it wouldnt be able to increase in value as 1400 then is worth less them 1400 18 uears from now. All in all my old man is quite bright

Saw him play at the Coliseum against Canada in '06 on New Year's Eve. The Steve Downey game. Loved when he joined the Canucks because he earned my respect that game. He didn't disappoint. Hope his body recovers for another run, if not he's got his name on a few pretty cool trophies.

If you’re stupid and put $10k in the bank in a chequing account at less than one percent maybe. But why be stupid?

I bought Shopify at $500 a share and sold it for $900 a share, it’s now $1400 a share....I’m stupid

That's Benning-esque.

I’d like to see LE “assigned to the AHL” (or this years equivalent) for what-ever cap relief that provides (I thought it was something like $1M?)

Only one real rookie (OJ), which is consistent with TG, but not GMJB’S expectation of Hoglander being ready. Do you see him slotting in with Bo or not at all?

D pairings are odd, with the over-loading of LHD. Which of AE and OEL are playing the right side? Do you really want Hughes with Myers?

EDIT: cap savings on a buried one-way contract
2020-21: $700,000 + $375,000 = $1,075,000
- SlightlyOffside

I just don't think Hog will be ready. True on D - would need some adjustments. And yah if it save 1M then send him down.
