Is Rantanen going to sign with the Canes?
I havent seen anything on his extension.

said he was willing to take less than market value to stay.. hmm but what is that number.

I like the ballz by the Avs to just make a move and not risk losing for nothing

He was willing to take less than market value to stay in Colorado. Let's see how he feels about the Canes, especially given that Free Agency looms and the cap is raising noticeably.

Since the trade they have lost to the Bruins 3-1, beat the Rangers 5-4 - despite being outshot in the game 37-22, and lost to the Islanders 5-2.

I think the Avs are reeling since the trade - but it may not be that bad. Their next games are mostly against weaker competition:

St. Louis Blues
Philadelphia Flyers
@Vancouver Canucks
@Calgary Flames
@Edmonton Oilers
@Nashville Predators
@St. Louis Blues

. . .it may give them a chance to get their crap together.

To Leafs : Jesus Christ

To Heaven : Reaves, Yarncock, Holmberg, Robertson, a 1st, a 2nd, a 3rd, and future considerations.

Top line : Jesus - Matthews - Nylander

Plan the parade.

- GalacticStone

We would put Jesus in net.

Because Jesus saves…

Well played sir.

I don't know though, I think the Chenrezig Buddha might do better in net. He has 1000 glove hands.

Is that actually a rumor? I'd happily offload Morgan's horrible contract and figure out the hole on D later, even if it torches this year (which it won't). But why would he waive?!? I don't think he would.

I don’t believe for a minute this will happen, but if you want to believe this roomer, the hook to hang your hopes on is that Rielly is from Vancouver.

Nobody wants Rielly's contract unless salary is getting retained and even then I think the return would be underwhelming.

- Whipper

Ive heard it discussed in several media channels.
Not sure its a legitimate "rumour" but more of a discussion.
We really cant afford to torch a year, i know morgan hasnt been great this year or really last....but hes been decent in the playoffs

On a run and gun team, a puck moving defenseman at 7.5m could be appealing.

yeah I dont think his 7.5 is terrible for an offensive D. esp in a season or 2 once the cap is 5+ mil higher

Only here would you see someone post a meme about hypocrisy, then a bit later make a post about someone and/or others saying the same thing over and over again endlessly & being wrong.

All this from that a person who posted endlessly for years about how Willy would be traded for spare parts & then when Willy signs a long term deal with the Leafs that person doubles down and continues to post utter nonsense about the coach not liking him and that he will be traded.

What a magical place this is.

What about a puck moving defenseman at 7.5 that doesn't put up points?

Ottawa Radio was going on about Miller/Pettersson in a Norris based deal...because Norris is apparently best friends with Quinn Hughes!!!!

Not sure its just "ballz" but more so that they have capital with their fans if it fails. They have multiple cups over the past several decades (one just a few years ago), and they also dont want anyone to make more than mac. Understandable.
So if this fails, its easier to sell.
The true standouts are the canes. I believe they Guentzel and rant without losing any 1st rounders.
Speaking of which it looks like the avs have traded all their first round picks they made from 2015 - 2020.

This makes sense and I would guess is how many teams operate, you can't upset the top dog. Despite the grumblings I would think/hope that when negotiating with Marner MLSE is reading from that same playbook and using Willy as the comparison and not Matthews.

Lmao.

This explains so much!

Fwiw I was on a destiny kick for like 2 weeks, but not really anymore. I’ll watch a video every once in awhile.. same with TYT ( Ana ), Sam Seder, Meidas Touch etc.. They all eventually fall out of rotation tho and I end up watching Mega Projects or Ukraine related content.

But wow. I know exactly who/what you are now.
