Utah or some team who has more cap space than they want and need the cap hit? I mean he's a UFA so he could walk right into free agency if he wanted to - just like Marner.

Maybe they are both thinking the same thing - don't sign first let the other guy and use that contract as leverage in your own negotiations?

Certainly possible. Everyone kept pointing at Draisaitl as a good comparable (And because Mikko has the same agent).

It seems like Rantanen likes to take his time making decisions. That's what got him traded out of Colorado in the first place.

It's far from ideal for fans of Carolina or Toronto but entirely possible.

Doesn't matter. You'll say I'm wrong even if I am right and you'll go on and on about for the next week.

I wish NHL GMs were more fun.
the 3 point system makes for crap teams to still be around this time of year which is good for the game but there would be so many more trades if it was W and L.

Pittsburgh makes sense. They need an upgrade really bad if they want any hope at all at ever making the playoffs before Crosby retires. Gibson has been a fantastic goalie in the past but currently stuck on a horrible team for years. If they retain enough salary in a 3-way trade and he goes to the Penguins, they get a solid 3 years of hope of being able to make the playoffs if he doesn't get injured.

What do you think the Dubaplan is?

Sell off Sid, Geno, Letang for picks and prospects and jumpstart a rebuild?

Or will he like you suggested, try to get them back into the playoffs and give Sid a reason to stay?

Tough call what to do here. He wasted a year. PIT ain’t winning poop. But I would’ve said the same about the Caps before this season started.

Suck it skalapy.

Yeah, fascist coup’s are strange for sure.

I never understood how people could’ve been supportive of the Nazi’s in 1930’s Germany. But now I get it.
