And lost to a bottom feeder.

Classic trap game.

[Habsy]

He's huge in that crease. 6'5". A lot just hits him but he needs better rebound control.

 

[SundinsTooth]

Habs bring competitive >>>

 

[Habsy]

I'm just amazed that a little win streak pushed them so close to a spot. Just means other teams really suck too

2+ starts. He didn't give up a goal during 5 minutes of OT and was perfect in the shootout too.

This will start a new trend in contracts. It's like a dodgers thing.
That said, Anaheim can do this, can Toronto?

I didn't think you could pay a player after he's retired

I don't get how it makes financial sense. Invest the money and you should make more than any state tax savings (minus inflation)

Rounding up it is 2.5m in state tax.

10 years from now inflation will be higher than the state tax.

Does that do anything to change the cap hit?

 

[cmaleski2]

Drops the AAV almost $1.5 million per season. From $6 million to $4.57 million.

Then do marner at 13.5x8 and pay him 80 mil in 15 years...

Rule would be changed real quick

For the player it makes no sense. Yes, $ now is far better than $ later. Maybe it might work with some mid-tier guys.

There would be such a shitstorm if Leafs did this. But it's ok for the sunbelt team that's struggling with revenue.
