2018-2019 NHL Season Thread Hockey • Page 26

Rumor was he got a big deal for last season so he can take a small deal for this season in hopes of Tavares.

 

he ain't leaving

 

I think I remember reading recently that he wants to stay in SJ and would sign for less for one last year and that he “bleeds teal”.

 

I'd be perfectly fine with him staying

 

Imagine if some Flames players decided to actually take in some culture with my man Dougie instead of putting him in the "locker room cancer" corner. God forbid an athlete is quiet and intelligent with multiple interests. This type of shit is why I've gotten into the NBA, where people can be people.

Sorry, I'll stop. As a former soft jock turned just soft, I'm still upset.

 

FUCKING EXACTLY!!!!

Ok, I'm done now.

 

didn't realize he was that old

 

Hamilton will probably fit in much better in Carolina. Small market, media doesn’t care about the team. He can visit all the museums he wants here and be happy.

 

I wish the Canes all the best this year.

 

Someone is gonna over pay for him

 

Isles are dumb for paying pelech over him last year, Garth is dumb. He could've at the very least been traded for someone else they like.

 

Hopefully some trades happen now

 

welp

 

Are the caps gonna hire a coach?

 

8 year deal too. Wow.

 

Probably going to promote Todd Rierden. They’ve been grooming him and I believe that’s what they actually wanted to happen with the Trotz situation.

 

8 years is crazy

 

eh not really

hes only 28

plus I am sure thats what they had to do to make sure to get the deal done

 

imagine what kind of money karlsson and doughty will ask for if John Carlson got 8 million

 

Paying him like he's a top five defensemen is going to hurt them a few years down the road but I suspect GMs just want to survive the first three before passing off the problem to someone else.

 

If he ends up in Boston, I'll puke my lungs out.
