It’s also a contract year and he doesn’t want to hang them up yet. Likely looking for another 2-3 years.

It wont last, I think at the beginning of last year Malkin was leading the league in scoring for several weeks, or near the top.

Get that back on insurance and get LTIR money for any possible moves.

I don’t think he’ll be missed and it’ll prove that we don’t need to resign him.

Missed? How much better are Evans & Anderson without Laine? A ton.

I'm done with Laine.

Good luck

This is whining about losing Eller or Lehkonen all over again. Bottom six guys like that literally grow on trees. We got a #1 RHD in return and locked him up long term. We won that trade.hands down.

No, I had no issue with those two going. But I liked this guy. Maybe the Islanders wouldn't bite on other options, or maybe the team didn't feel as positive about him as I did. Kinda would have liked to see someone else thrown in.

Yes, I make the trade regardless.

When Kapanen first arrived I liked him better than Heineman but then Heineman usurped him. But now Kapanen is among the league leaders in rookie goals.

Malkin has 12 points in 8 games. Sid has 6 goals and 11 points. These old bastards are killing it.

Maybe Sullivan needed to go before. They suddenly don't seem as stale. And the Rangers do.

No one had them much above the basement, if at all.

It's early.

Thanks Tips.

I guess he can always go to Vegas. They hire actual rapists so a guy who only slaps his wife around is nothing.

that was swift.

It’s the speed and mobility with Laine. He just doesn’t fit this teams identity of fast, high IQ, skill. He’s a shooter that can’t open up his own spot for himself. Great shot but the feet just aren’t there anymore. Rooting for him but I wouldn’t pay anything more than 3 mill

He did something to her, either he did beat her or he nailed her best friend, ghosted her etc. as she went scorched earth.

You dont get fired for fucking your wife's bestie or for ghosting. He assaulted her and they are preemptively firing him, as they should.

Marty Brodeur fucked his own sister in law. The Devils didn't do shit because, while embarrassing for Brodeur, no laws or bones were broken.
