It’s insane. They’re a team like EDM that needs to trade a star to fill out their lineup. I thought Marner was around 9, I didn’t know he’s at 11, that’s ridiculous. Theres no one on their roster id even want at their cap hits, obviously Mathews but I’m not even going down that road. This is what makes me nervous about guys wanting to add another big name, with Zib due for a raise we’d have 3 players making 10+ million, that’s a recipe for disaster especially with the cap remaining flat.

Aside from Panarin who else is making 10m? Zibanejad isnt getting 10m. Zib will at most get 8.5m.

The problem with going after a superstar center is cap flexibility. No matter how many times I plugged it into armchair GM, it just looks horrid in 2022 off-season.

I still find it hard to bash teams who signed these deals before the Pandemic hit

nobody could ever have imagined it

the first 10 million a year deal post pandemic is gonna be interesting to see

Well, 3 guys at $10M is about equal to 4 guys at $7.6M, so we still have to dance along the line.

I am following same game plan I did for last year's lottery

which was to watch it standing in front of TV, holding my cat, and then when they won it and started going crazy, I accidentally dropped the cat and he ran and hid on top of the closet

Wow! That looks like a nice bottle. My local liquor stores don't seem to stock anything that high end.

Edit:
Yeah, just checked into it. We can only get booze from retail outlets of the Liquor Control Board of Ontario, and the closest bottle to me is 123km away (and $228.75 CAD)!!
