Oilers & RNH agree to 8@41m.
It was the talk of town this morning. A little long, but that cap hit is gravy. He's easily worth $5M per season

That's a pretty team friendly deal. And for the kind of player he is / will be, $5.1 for a 34/35 year old isn't going to be (terribly) painful, because in 8 years, one would like to think the cap would be at least in the $90s if not over $100. Oilers and fans should be thrilled with that contract.

Meanwhile, the legend that is Carl Gunnarsson retired last week.

Easily one of the two most important OT goals in Blues playoff history.

Let me guess.."Bergeron Bergeron Bergeron"..

That's bittersweet. Like I said, a loss in the finals will really make you appreciate all of the previous early round exits.

Brad Marchand-1st Team All Star

Adam Fox wins the Norris? Who the hell is he?

The guy I predicted would win. You didn’t follow the Rangers much, eh?

Quote from: jingle.boy on June 01, 2021, 10:18:15 AM

Awards finalists are coming out now. Vasilevskiy, Grubauer, and Fleury for the Vezina. No surprise there. I'd give it to Grubauer.

My predictions:
Hart - McDavid, Matthews, Rantanen
Norris - Fox, Makar, Hamilton
Adams - Quennville, Brind'Amour, Evason
Calder - Kaprizov, Robertson, Nedeljkovic
Selke - Eriksson Ek, Markus Foligno, O'Reilly

I did better on these predictions than I did on the playoff round winners.

Apparently Marchand was 5th in Hart and McAvoy was 5th in Norris. Not for nothing, but Marchand should've gotten consideration for the Selke.

Ferraro (Leafs) and Campbell-Pascal (Flames) are both color commentators for their current gigs on TSN/Sportsnet

Sean McDonough is much better suited for baseball, which he is excellent at. But I'll take Steve Levy any day. Not sure I could listen to Leah Hextall talk for an entire game though.

Rumor has it that the Blues are shopping Tarasenko and that he’s submitted a list of teams he’d approve a trade to.

I got a feeling that Pierre McGuire will be on the TNT team. There's already some familiar faces that's going to TNT from the NBC squad. Kenny Albert and Eddie Olczyk. On that note, Gretzky is going to be an analyst for the TNT feeds. We'll see how'll that plays out.

My guess is he has not gotten over not getting the C after Petro left and wants out. I am not sure he will ever be the same because of that shoulder, so if they can get something solid equity back for him, I'll be fine with it. Still, it will be a bummer to see him leave, as the Blues have had few pure goal scorers in the 40 years I've been a fan, and he's probably the 2nd best behind Hull.

It appears Duncan Keith will be traded this off season. Hmm..

That and I’ve heard that there are several players who do not want to be on his line, to the point of some odd locker room strife. As you said…..prior to his shoulder going south he was a true goal scorer……second to only Ovechkin in goals scored in a five year span (excluding past three seasons) He was a bulldog and he played a big role in that Cup run. But the three consecutive shoulder surgeries on the same shoulder and spot have destroyed any chance of him being a legit threat again. He may get you 20 goals but I don’t think he will ever sniff 40 again. I don’t even think he’ll see thirty.

He’s played 23 games in the past two years and the Blues haves faired better off without him in the lineup. His wrist shot that once was a laser is now just an average shot……his game is severely limited……and it’s pretty obvious he’s ticked about not getting named Captain. If they can get something for him then you have to do it and I’d protect Sundquist in the draft over him every day of the week.

Hurray??? The Kings made a move today.

They got Viktor Arvidsson from Nashville for their 2nd round this year (at #40) and their 3rd round next year. This guy any good? At least, the Kings are making moves to attempt to improve the team, which I was hoping they would do this off-season. The guy has 3 years left at a cap hit of $4.25M. Seems all right for them.

0.33 goals per game in the NHL. Seems like a solid guy but nothing special.

I always got the sense Nashville thought he was a #1 liner kinda player, but it never turned out that way.
