So, here's my thoughts on who stays and who doesn't:

Not here next season: Trocheck, Stepan, Cole, Smith (all UFA)

Staying with new deals: Nino, Domi (both UFA)

Which RFAs will not get an offer? Lorentz and LaFontaine

Which RFAs stay? Bear, DeAngelo

And who's the wildcard? Martin Necas, a 23-year old, RFA.

Does Drury get pulled up next year?

I watched every game this year after only casually watching the past couple of seasons, and then only really paying attention to the playoffs. Trying to learn more about the more intricate details, salary cap, developing players, etc. Probably my favorite sport at this point.

I'd imagine he pulls up to the fourth line you get the feeling he is Staals eventual replacement.

I think other than the NC FL guy we all get along and respect everyone.   Was something said out of line?

I think he mistook the spirit of my post in this thread, Personally I don't care who makes the GameDay just that we can all chat and have fun....

 

I'm certainly not going to the doom and gloom.

The good news is we’re starting to get some traction on people on this subform to discuss and I think it’s a good thing that multiple threads about different things are being created. It shows that we care and we’re engaged.

Apologies, I didn't start the thread as a harbinger of bad things to come (no pun intended).

I just thought it would be nice to have other relevant hockey conversations besides the games themselves. And, playoff hockey tends to let you see who you really have come game day. Who steps up to the mic and who shrinks under the glare of the spotlight?

Who made a name for themselves and is looking to parlay that into a big payday? Who didn't gain the confidence of the coach to be part of the lineup this time around?

You guys know what's up- hell, I thought this was a 3-1 series by now... lol. Not counting the boys out.

For the record I think you are correct, Nino is a much bigger piece of what we do than Trocheck is ultimately, I think Necas will be back simply because he's a RFA and due to his down season won't get a ton in arbitration, When you consider the two concussions and the covid abbreviated seasons he is essentially having a sophomore slump.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      lol, that second part is quite literally one of the dumbest things ever. Having or not having guaranteed contracts has absolutely nothing to do with how much these billionaires have to pay.  Because there is a hard cap and a minimum cap spend requirement, and teams either use their cap or roll it over to use it all the next year, so the owners have to pay the same amount of money in the end no matter what. Having fully guaranteed contracts in the NFL would only hurt salary cap management, and thus would end up screwing over the team and its fan base when teams kiss on signings as they take up cap room that is needed to improve the roster. Look at the Browns with Watson, they gave him the fully guaranteed deal and all it’s doing is sucking up massive cap space now.  If they hadn’t done that, the owner would still be paying the same amount of money each year as that cap space would still be used elsewhere. If you want to argue for fully guaranteed contracts because the players deserve it, that’s an entirely different argument and a fair one to discuss.  But anyone against fully guaranteed deals isn’t doing it to argue for the billionaire owners.

      Start posting in threads in the other forums instead of just creating threads. No one comes over here so you aren't starting conversations.  Get your ass up to 100 posts. It's not that hard. Don't create 100 posts. Contribute to conversations.

      NHL Draft 2025

      By Rocky Davis · Posted

      Ryabkin could be the steal of the draft, he was a Top 10 pick heading into last season and had a rough year.  Lots of GMs passed on him because of that and his workouts. Pick has really high upside and Svech should be able to translate Rod tearing his arse a new one for making dumb plays since Svech has had several years of it.  🤣😂
