Aho 8x9.75 should affect EP's next contract.

Sinead OConnor as the Irish would say, has croaked at the age of 56.

I am not disagreeing, but I don't think EP is viewed as a superstar league wide. Most lists I see come out have him ranked as a very good player but not a superstar. Same as Aho, I don't view him as a superstar. Very good but not elite.

"Aho, who turned 26 on Wednesday, tallied 36 goals and 31 assists in 75 games for Carolina last season."

Yaaa Petey is gonna get paid

Big time!

I'm still of the opinion he's set the stage for a tkachuk like exit. He laid the groundwork by saying he wants to win a couple years ago, and we've shown next to no steps in doing that. Actually regressed since he said that, considering next year doesn't count yet. Plus, he/his agent will be well aware of the cap going up after this year, so his agent can throw out pretty aggressive numbers.

For some reason I get the feeling he won't be playing here much longer either. Just a gut feeling. No source.

duh... I understood that fully... unless a team gets LTIR to make space they still don't have space for big contracts. Making Myers still worth next to nothing.

You would get a boatload back. I am curious to see how Wpg do after the PLD trade.

I actually think LA got worse with that trade. I felt the same about the Tkachuk trade for Florida, but Tkachuk is a much better player than Dubois.

This is why I am curious about Winnipeg. They got some good young players, an excellent cap situation and pretty well a clean sheet going forward with still some more trades on the table.

What does Aho have to do with it? Him and Petey aren't on the same level at all

Aquilini will pay whatever he needs to in order to keep him in Van. The only question is how good of a negotiator Allvin is.

Someone in New York or California will be paying him, not Aquilini.

I don't. It's usually an elbow and her telling me that I was snoring too loudly.

I just drove the wife to our daughters and on the way I seen a vanity license plate UR XQZD.

Being the old pervert that I am ( you know this better than me) my mind thinks "You're X QZ D or you're exquisite" So I figure I have to speed up and take a look.

I pull along side and look in and it is a fifty-year-old man that looks like a turtle without the shell. Then I figured it out. I guess it meant "You're X Q ZD you're excused". Talk about your disappointments of the day.
