Dougie Hamilton is the obvious pick unless you think Barrie is still an option.

Otherwise would need to know more about the trade market.

Hamilton's agent talking to Aho's agent on tip for using MTL management to get the contract they want from Carolina.

I think a simple amendment to the rules would suffice to close the loophole the LTIR exist so that teams who suffer a season ending injury are not handicaped and can still have $82 M of talent on the roster. All that needs to be said is that to protect a level field, this upper limit of $82 millions still aplies to your roster for the playoffs and that at the start of the playoffs, each team can pick whichever players they want on their roster to be used during the postseason. So with the Lightning for example, they could have brought back Kucherov ($9.5M) but at the expense of say Johnson ($5 M) and Yanni Gourde ($5.1 M) they would leave money on the table but not our fault if they dont have 2 contracts that add up to $9.5 M
- Karine Hains


the only problem I can see with this is that it impedes trades at the deadline, if teams have LITR money to spend, but are screwed in the playoffs if they do so.

So not quite as simple as you put it, but perhaps some combination of cap +/or games played might be required.

Except Hamilton is a UFA so Carolina wouldn't have a chance to match once signed...and I see DH going to a quiet market most likely Seattle

Except Hamilton can go back to Carolina and say - hey look at the stupid contract MTL is offering, match it and I will sign with you.

love their goalie, own the hat, have fam down there, they do the leafs uniform better than the leafs (also love the bolt down the side of the pants).

i actually don't hate the isles because they were so bad for so long, but the hate will build back up if they stay good for a few years.

Went very smooth.

i had TB in half of my pools and COL in the other half. figured the odds were pretty good i'd get some of them right. none of mine were for money so unless you're a loser they aren't that important anyway.

better to be a gambling degenerate than an all out loser.

if you get your first dose with a scheduled appointment, can you go grab your second one in a walk-in clinic?
