Paid slightly more too.

Our last coach thought that greenway should be in the top 6 and given pp time.

He did? That’s wild! How are you so competent and aware to be able to notice these details? Very impressive.

Think it's easy to forget how little goalies get paid in comparison to skaters. These are RFA signings over 2m.

Who is your comp right now? A little Gustavsson, a little Skinner. Georgiev is in the middle. That seems reasonable to me.

With another good year, I still wouldn't put him in the 4m group. Maybe some inflation pushes it there.

You're right in your follow up post that the Swayman deal sticks out as a higher end comp for a one year deal, especially with the totality of his quality play compared to UPL's one season.

Oettinger's $4M deal came after 2 strong seasons and a very strong playoff series.

Adjusting both of the above against the higher cap limit would be $3.6M or $4.3M.

Both are high compared to UPL with their better respective track records at the point they signed.

It’s too bad that Bobrovsky contract has prevented Florida from being competitive

Right.

Wanting a team with speed and skill is a horrible take.

Then not wanting slow pylon type players with little skill like Jordan greenway.

Upl still struggling.

I am right about all of it.

Instead you guys here want a bunch to n greenways and lucics because we aren’t “touch”

You really don't know the difference do you, and No one said they wanted slow pylons.

Can anyone give me a solid justification for Adams not trading for Crosby?

Pitt needs a rebuild, the Sabres have a bunch of bum 1st rounders farting in the wind in Rochester....let's see how aggressive Ruff pushes Adams to be.

I mean they are going to have to blow up half the roster in a month, but continue

If only they focused on drafting and developing for 4 years while not making the playoffs, to set themselves up as a cap team with those players who've never played in the playoffs....then they would be set.

Full NMC and maybe wait until next offseason when he is a UFA. He either retires or plays on and perhaps is open to leading another team. I doubt it though.

What would it take to trade for him?

Was that a false statement ?

Both are true.

Zito managed to navigate the salary cap to hold around a $10M goalie, but the inevitable is about to happen to them.

Hopefully they win the cup this year and it doesn’t matter

Crosby costs you a ton and can walk in a year's time, so not worth paying up all those assets for him.

They have 20M in cap space to sign the bottom half of their roster.

Contextually this is not.. blowing up.

Yes yes I see Sam Rhinehartddts raise is a part of that potentially

This team is better off going after a tradeable middle 6 center with stronger on ice presence.
