Around The League: Playoffs 2026

Point is 97 is the best in hockey , you pay him , he has done it all except a team cup

You figure out the rest and maybe stop handing out firsts at the deadline

Kaprizov has done fuck all , its like giving Suzuki 17 mil or Hutson 13

according to Wehave, that is all that matters, if you don't win a ship, you are shit

 

[Habsy]

These guys and their circular logic. Every time.

Team game , one player cant do it all and its the ultimate team sport

Never bought into that nonsense

 

[Alan C]

Good tune Bob

I saw him in Vancouver in 86 with Tom Petty and Heaetbreakers as his band. Fun show. Good catch!

I agree but when dealing with Wehave, I have to rewire my brain

And I in Halifax in the late nineties. No nonsense affair, just came out and did his stuff with no flair I didn't know what to expect, but got exactly what any Dylan fan would have wanted.

I'm also a big Petty fan along with Dylan. I had Dylan on driving home today.

Over half over so time is fleeting

He needs to get to a tax free state ASAP.

Guerin cannot afford a bad contract or to screw up roster construction with a soon to be top heavy cap structure.

And they gotta draft well to replenish cheap talent.

The Wild are also in the entertainment business and without him, that team is about as boring/bland as you can be. Their hopes of building a championship team rest on the supposed "rising cap" over the next few years.

They are boring as paint with or without him

It’ll be slightly below Luke Hughes’ deal

Why?

Ca depend. Does the Hughes contract set the ceiling for Hutson or the floor?

New dynamic in play with the cap going up

The Slaf tier with McTavish and Guenther used to be a 7ish contract for term

Now agents want the cap bump and teams settle on a shorter deal because they dont want to go 9+

Hughes , Hutson stud types will be 9+ of longer terms

I dont see Hutson going past 6 years

 

[Sal_Butera]

Why?

Years of NHL service / # of UFA years being bought out
