We will squander the cap space from buying out OEL on day 1 of free agency.

Anyone have a subscription

I don't but I know how to block the script that pops the paywall up. What do you want to know?

I won't paste the article here because they scan for content online and punish site owners who re-host and I don't want to get the hoop in trouble.

Highlights:

- They are high on Michkov and if he isn't there, they will prioritize a center or RHD at 11.

- They do seem to like their Russians with Mikhayev, Kuzmenko and Kravtsov

- Not actively trying to move Miller

- Bear situation fluid, may not QO him depending on severity of injury and whether rehab has good prognosis (duh)

- They feel like there is no rush to extend Petterson. They prefer to let Jarmo handle it. (I may have made the second part up)

- UFA D targets: Soucy, Schenn and Troy from Richmond.

- They may also have interest in Ivan Barbershop and Milan Lucic. And no, I did NOT make that second part up.

I saw your post the other day on how to get access and meant to try. I did it now and it works like a charm. Thanks.

All depends on how long before they figure it out. But considering they keep firing writers and spending nothing at all on new ones, I doubt they have any quality IT people it may last.

I guess the New York Times now own the Athletic (not sure how much they paid for it), but it has yet to turn a profit which likely led to dismissing a bunch of people lately.

The funny thing is I supported them financially for the first couple of years with my subscription, but I found myself reading less and less articles as time passed by. They're trying to woo me back with a buck a month on a summer sale blitz.

good thing that the article ended with

Meanwhile, East Vancouver and Vancouver Giants legend Milan Lucic is a player the Canucks have discussed pursuing internally, but the team’s interest will hinge on whether or not they feel he’s still an everyday calibre player.

i would have stopped reading immediately. I honestly don't know where these guys get that info. if it is even REMOTELY true then there is no hope

You bastard. Beat me too it.

I'm a paid Subscriber to the Athletic. One of the things i liked, they took away last year.

One of the guys who was the Seahawks beat writer held a Q and A after every game................
