Can Van fit them all?
- manvanfan

They can afford them but I would not do it.

StLouis are two mil over the cap and want to sign Hoffman .

Arizona are over the Cap and signed Caligula . They are currently also looking for a center.


I would hold off all moves until this year is over. I would add a high end top 6 next year and also a top D like Hamilton.

Strange season it's going to be.

Maybe i'll open the book and take some notes (for fun of course) see what people think once we know a bit more.

I think juolevi will have a good year also filled with mistakes. I think he will eventually turn out to be a Left Side Ristolainen .

I would also like to see if one other guy can take the right side spot. Even if it turns out to be Rathbone.

It's a screwed up year and only going to get crazier. In the end it will work out and still be hockey.

A few days ago I posted Canucks at 6th in division, I stand by that and am okay with them having a drop-off from last season.

BLASPHEMY!!!!!
They have been cup contenders for over a year now.

Coyotes are going to allow limited fans. Do they have fans?
- VANTEL

Nice. The 900 fans that attend those regular games will be happy. Florida can open up too the Panthers get about 900 fans per home game lol

Should help with the Hockey related revenue, by my calculations that would be about 12 dollars.

I think Oilers might be really bad this year.

lol why because Klefbom is out? They were the best CDN Team in the league at 71 games when COVID-1984 hit. They haven't de-evolved in one season lol

Arizona has over 5 million going on LTIR
St. Louis has over 13 million going on LTIR

Bad goaltending

Klefboom out Barrie and maybe Vatanen in. 5'10 Russel 5'11 Bear, high scoring Larssen

Cap issues

Just need to put a guy like Kucherov on LTIR like all the good GMs do.

Get with the times. We are entering Covid 21 and the oilers will suck balls ...

If you are looking at cap friendly, they haven't taken the LTIR players off the team yet

STL has 69 in cap.

ARI only 77 in cap.

Just like if Ferland goes on LTIR, Van is 1.5 over would be 2M under after.

This division is wide open with no teams that scare anyone in the playoffs ...if I was the rest of the league I’d be pissed about these teams all being in one mediocre division.

Did you know that OJ had best stats as a 16 year old in the Finnish Junior league then Jurmo had as an 18 year old.

I didn't either but lately i've been looking through u20 seasons in Euro leagues. It's surprising when you break it down how the NHL talent comes to the top in these leagues. Players aren't just coming out of nowhere too often, like really rarely.

I am well aware of how it works. In fact I pointed out yesterday St Louis had 10 million in cap space.

My post was meant to show you can make what looks like cap issues go away very easily. We do have a lot of whiners on here who daily say we have cap issues. No names need to be mentioned.

Koskinen had equal stats to Markstrom

Exactly.

Sounds about right . Two slightly above average goalies.
