Getting there, Pete. One day at a time, meeting with financial advisors tomorrow morning, we'll see what they have to say. Rocky road, but I'm getting there, and even though I'm not as active? ALL you people are helping me stay on an even keel.

Especially you, Karine. Your regular posts are a lifeline. I still think, "Damn, Karine!" with every column, even if I don't say it.

Guys, I think they should just keep Petry.

Always kinda felt this was a trade deadline deal or to a desperate team that had a major injury to their back end.

Also, other than perhaps Burns, the other trades were completely about cap relief, more than a fair trade of value. So I would not judge the possible return for Petry in those contexts.

Habs do not need to trade him, at this point.

Plus, fairly flat cap is not helping.

Will be interesting to see how this all plays out, but I do expect him to be in MTL for a significant part of the season.

Umph Twitter is down…how will we know if Petry is traded to Seattle this morning?!? How did we live before Twitter?!?

If he was in it only for money, he would not have left $15M+ on the table.

Not only that, but also leaving the better team and leaving a hockey city to go well, to a non - Hockey city

Crazy !

I don't expect much to be honest.

Phew! About time thanks for the heads up

The Hurricanes let Dougie Hamilton walk because they didn't want to pay him until he was 37, and they traded Tony DeAngelo because they don't want to pay him $5 million, so of course they go out and acquire a 37-year-old Brent Burns who will now cost them a little over $5 million per year against the cap.

Hello people

I am here to do this:

They didn't want to pay Dougie Hamilton $9 Million per year until he was 37. They offered him $6.5 per for that length which, yeah, is insulting.

They didn't want to pay Tony DeAngelo much of anything, because his defensive metrics are in the bottom 4% of the league.

They acquired Brent Burn because he scored about as much as Tony did last year, is a bit better defensively, and cost $5.23 million per. Also they gave up less to acquire him than they got for trading DeAngelo's rights.

Now I shall go back into my hole and continue my work transcribing the communist manifesto into klingon.
