The offseason stuff thread

[forty_three]

Is there a reason Dzingel has barely been mentioned? Seems like a great target.

Local gossip is he has his eyes focused on only two teams. Either Chicago or here in Columbus. He grew up there. Went to college here. Wants to be in either place, not so crazy about looking elsewhere unless it doesn't work out.

I think the Jackets want him to stay, just waiting to see how all the shit hits the fan.

I'm okay with this.

Refresh my memory nasty, devils initially were going to face a larger cap hit for kovalchuk... they appealed and the cap penalty was “re-calculated” by the nhl to a lower number

/not saying this will happen for the Canucks

I'd be lying if I said I knew the details but Kovy still has a $250k cap hit through 2025.

"signed" but by who

[Duke of Douchington]

and I thought it might actually happen there but for whatever reason it didn't

So you heard that a somewhat big trade was possible but instead you decided to talk about RFA's arranging meetings with teams you never identify and GM's having conversations on the draft floor?

With all the Canadian media people getting the hook left and right every year, somehow that fat piece of shit gets by unscathed. Figure it out, Canada.

 

[Duke of Douchington]

As long as the Devils don't do it it's allowed.

Must suck to get hit with penalties that get wiped out anyway...

I mean, they negotiated for PK Subban so there's obviously more to their trade dialogue than "dangit guys, we can't do anything until we get Mitch done!".

Dear Gawd.

Someone takes Benning's phone and delete Marleau's number from it

So, speaking of Cap Recapture, here's what each team has to pay if Shea Weber retires based on the year he does so.

C'Mon Shea. DO IT

On this, does anyone think the league would tag the preds with a weber cap recapture penalty? Theyd “recalculate” this one too if weber doesnt go to ltir

It would be pretty ballsy (or Balsillie) if the league did tag the Preds.

Just eliminate the other verses. That works.

The structure of webers contract was written by the flyers in the form of an offer sheet. If they wanted to retroactively punish teams that made up contracts that ran contrary to ghe spirit of the last cba or whatever bullshit claim they made the the flyers should get some punishment there

The Flyers?!? C'mon man, they're probably Bettman's second favo(u)rite team.

Staple says it looks like Lehner's not going back to NYI. Too far apart.

These guys, man. One season without buying an 8 ball twice a week and they wanna get paid!

But yeah, they are totally going to offer sheet Marner
