Happy opening night everyone!
GM: Here's your plane tickets.
Player: Okay, is there a bag fee?
GM: No need to pack a bag. You'll be back here tonight.
Plan the parade. Doesnt matter the route, it always ends with Stanley returning to Stanley park
I almost feel sorry for Georgiev. He went from being the Avs primary goalie following their Stanley Cup win, and now he'd barely even an AHL level player. I'm guessing his issue is psychological; the guy's confidence is obviously shaken which I imagine isn't easy to overcome as a pro athlete.
Good luck this season!! May your Starting G's remain healthy! š Best to Silovs' future too!
Well that didn't last long for Georgiev. I hope he gets back in a groove.
I have a MacKinnon and two Makar jerseys, but I'm an Avs fan so not much of a surprise. I am glad I was able to get an Adidas military appreciation jersey before Fanatics took over.
I've seen Buffalo win the year 1 sim multiple times. As well as Seattle
I wonder if video conferencing with management will count as "reporting in" to an AHL club.
Hereās to Hope! Cheers everyone!
Go Yotes!! (Someday)
SHANNON! How could you give VGK the kiss of death š with your prediction š± This is going to be awful from the start of the year knowing that they canāt win it allš. Iām really hoping for ANAHEIM, LA , & VGK make the playoffs and SJ, UT, Van, & Seattle can keep on missing the playoffs. Sorry, I know you are a Canucks fan but Iām similarly your age and remember the rivalry between LA & VAN. fighting each other to see who can avoid 5th place and miss the playoffs and be fortunate enough to be 4th place and an invitation with the Oilers and their teams that are arguably the best of all time. I think I need to watch the Miracle on Manchester again to help myself get out some of the stinging from losing to McDavid three years in a row or is it 4 years now Iām still trying to forget about it š¢
Hope Lucic gets a contract from St. Louis
With Husso waived, I think Luneau or Moore will be the #7 defenseman.
I would be highly surprised if my rangers go to the final this year. A pleasant surprise to be sure. But a surprise nonetheless
I still donāt understand why Treliving would have claimed Primeau instead of signing Reimer to the same cap hit
Rangers in the final? Are they out of their minds?
Lucic hasn't retired?
Vegas Knights Management: Breathes air
NHL fans: THATS CHEATING
Lets go BLUES! ā¤ you hockey fam.
Glad to have you back for another great season opening night! Thanks again for all that you do to help keep us informed!!!
Us Sabres fans have no hope. We know they're going to be terrible this year.
Florida Marchand or Boston Marchand?
Wasnāt Rooney on a PTO for NJ?
First, yes, closing the playoff loophole was a big improvement in the salary cap system. But, there IS one last loophole. Thatās to sign a veteran player to a much longer contract than theyāll likely actually play.
As a potential example, Marchand at 37 signed a 6 year contract paying him $5.25 million with the same cap AAV. The odds that Marchand will play until heās 43 are very slim. So, most likely heāll be put on LTIR the last years of that deal. For mathematical simplicity letās assume thatās the last 3 years. In this scenario Florida will have actually paid Marchand $10.5 million/yr for the 3 years that heāll play while only $5.25 million will count against the salary cap for those years.
I think putting Pietrangelo on LTIR towards the end of his contract was always the Vegas plan, or at least was seen as highly likely. If the Vegas cap situation next year doesnāt leave room for Pietrangelo to play, he wonāt, no matter how healthy he is. In that circumstance if Petro wants to keep playing Vegas and he will agree to negate the last year of his contract and heāll sign with another team.
I expect to see several deep pocketed teams sign these sorts of established veteran deals until another adjustment is made to the cap rules to prevent it. If his team has the revenue and a willing ownership a GM would be dumb not to exploit this loophole.
Thanks for helping the Blues to the 2019 cup. Enjoy your life.
Bold statement by the league predicting a Vegas win… It's been 7 years we know !
And don't forget : "As life will find a way, Vegas will always find a way to cheat".
rangers making it to the finals is as ridiculous as canucks fans thinking hughes wont be a devil in 2 years……
I wouldnt mind if Flames made a claim for Husso. I'll take him over Cooley or Prosvetov. It's gonna be a long year with me complaining about flames not having a backup goalie
Gregor is not a good hockey player.
What happens if Vegas Trades Peterangelo this year ?
The Georgiev falloff needs to be studied.
Very philosophical Shannon nobody's one nobody's lost nobody's scored any goals or gotten any assists. Got any more you can talk of about?
1:11 I wish Pietrangelo well in what Iām sure will be a long recovery from his current injury stint.
The blues really looked at the Avalanche signing Burns and said "Quick, find the oldest guy we can still stick on the ice!"
Vegas gives massive overlong contracts, gets a couple of good years out of a player and when they are slowing down, bye bye go to litr
I thought Jaaska was placed on the injured non roster?
Erne impressed me too, good to see him get rewarded!
Every time I see that Utah logo I can only see a jacked up, zoomed in version of the bolts logo
Pietrangelo may never play again. He's going to be 36 in January and he has some health issues that no one is talking about.
Friendly reminder to all the people who thought the Blues should have traded Binnington and gone with Husso … stay away from the sports gambling apps. š
Vegas shirt looks like a Star Trek shirt. š Thank you.
I'll continue this season distraught at the lack of coverage for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
why do you block people who comment when it does align with your views?
Speaking as an introvert who doesnāt like being touched, I would love to have a ānon-contactā jersey.
Good for Lucic. Hopefully he figures it out
yea sure just give hutson the 12-14 he wants .hey didnt mxjesus take 12?
hutson can jump in a lake .5 9 160 is not a first pair d .
gohabsgo
While I really think the Hutson stuff is mainly media blowing it up, I hope this Hutson things doesnāt blow up. Making Hutson mad would be a massive fumble by Hughes
Georgiev did not look good in preseason, struggled a lot and gave up a lot of goals in his starts. He will be a very helpful mentor to Levi. Does this mean UPL will be fine for the home opener or Ellis is the backup?
could NHL teams with AHL affiliate farther away open a local or regional office for the AHL affiliate and send waived players there?
So whats going to stop a team from signing a so so player to a big contract put him on ltir for the season and do it multiple times?
