From what I heard, ROR was more concerned about term and location. He probably took less to go there.

OEL is a complete reclamation. He probably went to a place where he is more likely to succeed so that he can get paid again.

Give Adams more credit then that, we got Tage and Cozens for 7 mill each, the Kings are paying the biggest cry baby in the league 8.5 for 60 points.

That's a good point

ROR has to know that if he goes to Nashville that they aren't serious cup competitors any time soon. They made a few moves just to become a middling roster.

Interesting to see that they are still paying Kyle Turris 2 mill a year for the next 5 (five) years after his buyout. They are going to have between 3.5 and 8.5 mill in dead space for the next 5 years.

Trotz building a boring defensive team just like his coaching style.

I think that is the shortcut to trying to get back to respectability. Unfortunately if you don't have the talent to go along with it, you end up looking like the Islanders.

Yep, the dream of Hellebuyck is dead. I never really saw them spending what it would cost to get him. They’re very high on Levi

I think the qualifying offer would have been 2.25? Adams saved a few bucks

Adams is becoming such a grifter

Don’t qualify Jost at 1 year 2.25 mil so you can spend energy on the opening day of free agency getting that crucial 250k savings.

(shrug) it might be, because it feels like a lot of spare parts are moving around now.

They weren't doing 5 years on Korpisalo. And thank God.

On the surface it does seem odd - if they really valued the guy, why not just qualify him and not risk losing him? I think it could be something else. I bet they each got to free agency and realized that that the grass wasn't greener.
