Genuinely spit out my coffee seeing the Engvall contract
hopefully now people can see the isles were winning in SPITE of Lou not because of him. he’s Chuck Fletcher bad lol. that’s still seen as a hot take (somehow) but I think people are FINALLY coming around
What about mayfield
JOHN KLINGBERG NEXT
You guys covering the Canucks signings? They signed like 3 guys in the first hour of FA
Would love to see you cover the Bolt’s signings
The engvall contract will 100% depend on the cap, if the cap goes up like projected, you can easily dump the contract in 4-5 years at the cost of a mid round pick.
Sorokin deal is going to age wonderfully I love it, Pierre’s deal isn’t bad at all. Sure it’s long term but at 3mil it’s reasonable. Mayfield at 3.5 for 7 years is rich for my blood, but with the cap going up I could hate it more. Varlamov for 4 years is a head scratcher tho, he’s already 35 and is now a backup. If the price isn’t terrible I suppose it’s fine but 🤷♂️. Good all around day for isles nation
The Giraffe fleeces Lou 🤣 My ribs hurt.
Yeah, $3M ain't terrible for Engvall, but 7 years is hilarious.
Crazy good deal on Sorokin. In 4 years thatll look insanely good.
Engvall was redundant on the leafs but filled a big hole on the islanders
How do they sit and immediately go “oh 7 years for a third liner that’s totally fine” after just shitting on graves contract which is 6 years 🤦🏼🤦🏼🤦🏼
I think Engvall just likes watching hockey as much as the rest of us, and on ice is his favorite place to watch.
The biggest problem is, we have locked up the same team that got pushed out in the 1st round. Now we know that there will be no big time puck moving defensemen or goal scoring forward signed to help go deeper next year. Is this the right strategy? Having faith didn't pay off last year. Why would it pay off a year later with an aging team?
There is a ton of unrealized potential in this lineup. Time will tell if Barzal, Bo, Engvall, Fasching, Wahlstrom and Holmstrom can step up and make a difference.
