The Leafs are going to give him a way to big of a contract, and his agent knows it

You have to live in Toronto though.

Yet he overpaid Pouty by 3 million, overpaid recently traded Mikheyev bu 1.5 million and overpaid Hronek by 1.5 million.

Wait until Pouty makes another dumb comment to the media that makes the management look bad and Alvin will be personally driving him to the airport.

He was the best choice for the Norris this year but for the next 5 years at least, it’s Makar’s to lose.
- Shuswap Wap

It was Makar's to lose this year too...and he lost lol.

The Leafs apparently offered a 1st plus other to get Markstrom, I wonder if a Demko / Marner deal could be worked out

No thanks to Marner. Next contract will be overpaid, he's a great player but MIA in playoffs.

The Nashville Predators have gotten numerous calls on goaltender Yaroslav Askarov in the last 24 hours in the wake of the Juuse Saros extension news, reports TSN Hockey Insider Pierre LeBrun.


Wonder if this has a connection to the Canucks circling back to DeSmith? Got some offers for Silovs?

Dude, that contract ends in 2032. It might be a little steep now, but it should absolutely become a bargain.

That's what I'm thinking. I like Silovs, really do.

However, if a team is backing up the truck for him then you pull the trigger. Hopefully the next guy in line is ready if Demko is/gets injured..

It's called re-prioritizing the team team structure sell high Demko and give Silovs the starter job with a capable veteran back up

Yep. Weird that a certain someone in here called it 5 years years ago...then Rubes and a bunch of the other champs plus a few others laughed and cried all at the same time saying Hughes would never ever be considered for the Norris. But here we are. Weird how that works lol
- LordHumungous

Exactly. I remember Dbot saying that and a few others, but there was a contingent saying otherwise. Can’t remember what side of the fence you were sitting on.

Silovs is worth a 3rd. At best. No team is backing up a truck for an unproven goalie with pedestrian AHL numbers

He's very capable. More time with Ian Clarke he'll be more than fine.

Lol DsD ..we will see , if they are set on EP , we need a winger that can maximize his play , and with a solid veteran D core , combined with the teams commitment to structure a young goalie on a cheap contract could be just fine .

Then there wouldn't be anyone to in here other than the pom-pom wavers like Donna and Nighthawk and no one to question anything this management crew does.
