The Sicatoka Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 There are a TON of folks not being given QOs or flat out waived, and I mean guys that would form a pretty solid team. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted October 8, 2020 Posted October 8, 2020 The story in the NHL right now is Vegas is offering to give you Fleury and a 2nd round pick and Vegas retains half the contract! Fleury for two years at $3.5M AAV ... and nobody is taking because they know Vegas is horribly over the cap already. The league is letting VGK stew in their juices. Welcome to Flat Cap hardball. 1 Quote

sioux rube Posted October 19, 2020 Posted October 19, 2020 Say it ain’t so, Doc! Mike “Doc” Emrick, the incomparable Voice of the NHL, Monday morning will retire, as per a shared announcement with NBC Sports. Emrick, 74, rose from calling college and minor league hockey radio broadcasts to develop an enthralling style that emphasized superior, often mesmerizing play-by-play: Original on-the-fly, bull’s-eye descriptions; a great knowledge of the game; current and past anecdotal info, timed to perfection; strong, warm relationships with his color analysts; and a modest charm that radiated as real. He forced nothing. He just knew how to know. https://nypost.com/2020/10/19/mike-doc-emrick-retiring-from-legendary-nhl-broadcasting-career/ 1 Quote
The Sicatoka Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 I'd forgotten that Oshie did that against "Bob". Quote
The Sicatoka Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 I just did a quick spin through CapFriendly looking at goaltending on NHL teams. That said, let's get real ... Can the Blackhawks finally cut a deal with VGK to get MA Fleury? CHI is about the only team, roster or dollars, that can make that happen. And there's no way CHI is going with Delia and PK's little brother as their duo. Quote
The Sicatoka Posted October 20, 2020 Posted October 20, 2020 My deal to send MAF from VGK to CHI: VGK: retains half the remaining MAF contract salary; sends MAF sends two second round picks to CHI (theirs and NJD's, both in 2021) CHI: sends PK's little brother Quote

Then it would be all about politics of the advertisers and whether they are politically correct or not. Then they would cancel out the “wrong” advertisers. Quote
