Chad Sexington posted:I think the crucial thing for the Caps is not to loving scratch Strome so you can play Backstrom and Eller. These were the lines last night and I liked how balanced they were: Apparently Lavy just has his lines in a randomizer. Tonight Aube-Kubel is a first line winger! Kuznetsov in for Dowd on the fourth line! Scratch Mantha for reasons.

DancingMachine posted:Martin Jones is UFA after this year so likely he will cost a lot more than his current 2MM per to retain or replace as a primary starter. Driedger is still on the roster as well at 3.5MM per. So if Grubauer is retained and Jones is replaced/retained at say 5MM you are looking at probably something like 14 MM per year for mediocre to bad goaltending going forward. Is that totally crippling for a team, or is it pretty normal to have a red spot of that size on a good team's roster? The Kraken's contract situation is the worst part of their books IMO. Grubauer's contract is unmovable and it's too early to buy him out, Jones is playing too well to stash when Driedger comes back and I think he's slated to be back sooner rather than later. I'm very curious to see how they navigate that and if they end up with 3 goalies on the roster or if Driedger gets reps in the AHL for a while. To your question though, both Grubauer and Dreiger have a NTC and a buyout would be brutal so I'm betting Jones walks and gets overpaid by someone. The only real out is if some team not on Driedger's list of 10 teams trades for him and they give Jones that money. Who knows though, if Driedger comes back healthy I'm ok with Jones moving on cause I do not trust that dude in the least. quote:The rest of the roster cap hits look OK to me at first glance, though the team is going to have a hard time retaining some of the players that are doing well this year like Dunn and Sprong. Losing Dunn will hurt a lot. Bjorkstrand maybe is questionable as to whether he is going to play up to his contract as well. If I had to bet right now I'd say that they let Donskoi walk in the offseason and use his $3.9mil cap hit to get Dunn and (god I feel weird saying this) Sprong signed as well. All in all their cap situation isn't terrible outside of their goalies, and the 400 NTC they gave skaters, but I think a lot of that is a function of being a new franchise and not having decades to make awful deadline trades chasing a cup run. .Spec fucked around with this message at 03:24 on Jan 18, 2023 |

Call Your Grandma posted:RoR would be a fine pickup for the leafs imo but the scuttlebutt is just a pundit making poo poo up and our big playoff acquisition is gonna be Lucic ROR’s on-ice xG share is 40%, the worst of all regular Blues forwards, and the team is significantly better when he’s not on the ice. Possession under 50% when he’s out there, he’s on pace for his lowest point total in years. And that’s all before he got a long-term injury he’s still out with. And all that would be fine if the Blues’ asking price was reasonably in-line with what he’s been doing, but they’re going to demand a return for the guy he used to be. And that’s my point, any team paying for him is taking a huge risk because the ROR who played 37 games so far this year is a lot worse that he was even a year ago.

Oops my bad on the spelling. That all makes sense, I guess you just let Jones walk and keep the goalies you have. Driedger's results last year were better than Grubauer and comparable to the results Jones is getting this year.

It's not just lovely as all hell, it's also impressively stupid. I guess players don't pay any attention to night-by-night promotions and Provorov learned about Pride Night the minute he walked into the locker room and saw the warmup jerseys. If he'd had a competent agent you'd think some calls could have been made at least, oh I don't know, a few hours in advance and Torts would probably have had no problem scratching him for the game and telling everyone he had food poisoning or whatever. Instead he publicly marks himself as a homophobic rear end in a top hat in the most passive-aggressive way possible and Torts more or less does the same. As for the Flyers, well, if you as an organization care about optics even a tiny little bit then you don't hire John Tortorella. It's nice that they have Pride Night and all but their not giving a gently caress was made abundantly clear when they hired Torts and signed DeAngelo. If you'd slept through today and had to guess tomorrow morning which NHL team had a player refuse to wear the Pride Night jersey and let him play in the game anyway, the Flyers would've been right near the top of the list.

Being a locker room distraction is for speaking out on things like racial injustice or worker rights. When you just hate gay people it’s because you are “true to yourself”.
