oilers are one point behind the ducks for 1st in the pacific, and will pass them with any sort of win against them saturday (currently tied on row and season series points) oilers schedule after ducks: kings, sharks, canucks twice ducks: calgary twice, sharks, kings

Hey Jackets, your defensive play and goaltending have been fairly spectacular of late, but would you mind scoring more than two goals? I mean, let's be fair, Philadelphia and Carolina were also very solid defensively, but actually scoring goals are going to be a valuable skill in a couple weeks.

Imagine how the oilers would be doing if the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th lines could score ever, and if the first line couldn't be split up by prodding maroon a little bit.

fits posted:oilers are one point behind the ducks for 1st in the pacific, and will pass them with any sort of win against them saturday (currently tied on row and season series points) Oilers are 16-5-3 against the Pacific this season as well, best of any Pacific team. It's definitely possible they can win the Pacific. Really, as long as they beat the Ducks and then match the Ducks point-for-point to end the season, they've got it.

Pretty cool that two Flyers had Gordie Howe hat tricks in the first period tonight. Between that and the fact that they beat Pittsburgh the other day, the Flyers are suddenly OK in my book. This is weird...

hifi posted:connor murphy got 3.85x6 in the same kind of deal and it looks like all the comparable contracts are pretty similar. salary increases and term that puts you over 30 but not ancient, and a 3-5MM overall cap hit. I wonder if the subban bridge deal debacle made GMs more open to paying for potential In this case, Zaitsev is already 25 so anything over a year would've brought him to UFA, meaning no bridge deal. I think, once a guy is a full-time, serviceable NHL defenseman, you can pretty much rely on him to stay serviceable through at least age 30.

A nice glimpse into what it's like working for Eugene MelnykOttawa Citizen posted:Specifically, the claim alleges Melnyk “at times used profanity and levelled insults at executive team members, including constantly calling into question their competency. Mr. Melnyk sent abusive emails to the executive team and frequently threatened to dismiss them.”

RNH/ebs/luc, $18m for 50 goals/127 points this season. McDavid/draisatil/maroon is currently $3.35m for 82 goals/204 points. Of course in 2 years that's going to be a $20m line. They really should have signed maroon for like, 10 years, how much of a steal would he have been at 1.5 mil.

grack posted:I think Zaitsev is a top pairing D for Toronto with Reilly? He plays on the top pair, but that has to be understood in the way that teams these days tend to split their 1 and 2 D, and for Toronto those two are clearly Rielly and Gardiner. Zaitsev is fine as a defenceman -- even possession in fairly tough minutes while producing on the powerplay -- so 4.5 million a year is fine short term, but 7 years makes me uncomfortable. A Typical Goon posted:Toronto doesn't have a top pairing D Jake Gardiner, baby.

The Dirty Burger posted:A nice glimpse into what it's like working for Eugene Melnyk I'm disappointed they didn't work the word "buy-o-flail" in there. Leeder wasn't the problem. Fans thinking the guy funding the team is equal parts lunatic tyrant and cheap idiot is the problem. Still, I'm not convinced this isn't basically every NHL owner.

Powershift posted:RNH/ebs/luc, $18m for 50 goals/127 points this season. They didn't spend the whole season together (although that was certainly the intention in the summer), but at times the Canucks iced Sedin-Sedin-Eriksson at a combined cost of $20M and they've managed 45g 69a 109pts in 216 games. The three of them combined managed fewer points than Henrik had in his Hart Trophy season. ThinkTank fucked around with this message at 13:49 on Mar 31, 2017 |

Powershift posted:Is there a more expensive/less productive line in the NHL? The top line makes about 9 million with bonuses. Also Nuge and Eberle have been playing less per game, and getting less pp time all year while playing against tougher competition. They aren't just playing worse than they have in the past, there are very specific usage reasons for their point totals being supressed.

Actually now that I think about it, I could see McDavid just going straight Crosby ripoff and settling on a $9.7M cap hit.

He's the bottom level of NHL calibre defensemen. In the large scheme of things that still means he's pretty good. Also, he can't fight because his face has more plates than my crockery cupboard.
