What happened to tampering?

 

[JackBurton]

Marchment would be a very Bunting signing.

Model breaker, that no one thinks will repeat. He has to want to give us a 2nd chance thought.

I would easily sign him. I'm not a fan of the "Grit" arguments, but we have ditched too many of those guys.

 

[Artnes]

What happened to tampering?

5x5 is the expected number which I honestly want no part of considering Jacks history. Big gamble for the Oilers

 

[JackBurton]

So who is tanking for Bedard?
looks like Chicago, arizona, Seattle, Montreal, Ottawa, Buffalo all of a chance. Hopefully he'll end up in the west.

A darkhorse might be Philly. I see disaster there. Chicago and Arizona should be the top favs.

Yeah, great question.

From the beginning, even during his hot streak in the 1st half, I figured he was in the Ullmark contract range (5x5).

 

[Habsy]

What happened to tampering?

No kidding. Of course he phrased it as a hypothetical.

 

[hockeylover]

Kinda surprised their target is Campbell and not Kuemper to be honest.

 

[LeafGm]

If he’s going to Edmonton, hopefully Jack gets something ridiculous.

6x6, or some shit.

Yes.

It's just based on a model/algorithm.

Ottawa is trying to win. And Buffalo too.

 

[JackBurton]

That surprises me. I would have thought old school Gms would go hard after him

 

[Wayward DP]

they may want to recheck it in that case...

 

[Wayward DP]

Friend of a friend told me this is already done

poor soupy

Agreed.

I don't think Montreal is tanking this year. I think they'll simply be organically bad. Now if Price plays and his knees are ok we aren't getting a sniff of bottom 5.

poor soupy

No soup for you, 5 seasons!
