No, his contract was bought out. He's just still getting paid until the end of the 2029 season

The fact that you aren't joking is kinda hilarious.

Yeah, but I think that's just economic shuffling. Capfriendly shows that the buyout to him each of those years is $0.00.

Wrong. He was well liked in the locker room. Look at what Staal said about him after the whole fiasco, look at what Miller said about him. This wasn’t bc he was a cancer in the locker room, they got rid of him bc him and Quinn couldn’t stand each other.

Ha...Ok you can believe what you want but look at it this way, how many times have players not got along with their coaches?? Ok now tell me out of those times, how many players have been sent home to sit out a season and then thrown to the scrap heap instead of being traded??

I will wait for you to answer.

At least Richards was an NHL caliber player.

we never really talk about it but I definitely see Zach Hyman's name thrown out a lot in terms of the Rangers, and not just Larry Brooks

One of the few Leafs I would be ok with bringing in. But, where does he fit?

That's literally the last thing (maybe second to last after another D man) the Rangers need. Why?

if it happened, I think they bring him in for free as a UFA and trade from other areas

he definitely hits and plays a north south game though

Love the hire of Galant. Now he needs some help! Tampa will not be able to afford everyone so someone needs to be moved. First, we sign Coleman and Goodrow, both UFA’s. Then we trade Chytil, Buchnevich, Nils, Zac, or Robertson for Braden Pointe I know it’s a lot of bodies and probably will be laughed at about this offer but I think it works.

Pierre Lebrun:

Nobody said the Stanley Cup playoffs had to be over before Jack Eichel potentially gets moved.

And while I’m not saying the star center will get traded before the end of the playoffs, what I’m hearing is that conversations between the Buffalo Sabres and other interested teams are getting more intense and serious.

So read into that what you will. The next few weeks could be intriguing on that front.

And I would imagine Sabres GM Kevyn Adams would be counting on a first-round pick to be used the night of July 23 in this year’s draft in any package so the clock indeed is ticking.

Eichel, 24, has five years and $50 million left on his contract but there’s no question there are teams — at a certain price — who believe a change of scenery will reset his career.

Teams I believe make sense: Los Angeles, Minnesota, Anaheim, Columbus, Philadelphia and the Rangers, among others.

The Kings want to make a splashy move for a top-6 forward, the Wild could use another top center, and the Jackets (who have three first-round picks this year) of course really, really need a No. 1 center.

we'd all love Brayden Point but I think Tampa would probably like to trade him least on their entire roster

I'm willing to do Stamkos to help them with the cap. They need to retain a little. They want to keep Point they need to dump someone that makes real money.

IF Tampa wins the cup again this year, does that change their plan for future? Meaning....would they start to sell off some players before cap situation gets any worse?

There’s no way point gets traded.

I think they make an arrangement for Seattle to take a big salary off their hands
