That'll effectively cap the panthers out at least.

Verhaeghe 31 --- Barkov 31 --- Reinhart 31
Tkachuk 27 --- Bennett 30 --- Tkachuk 29
Luostarinen 28 --- Lundell 25 --- Marchand 38
Hathaway 35 --- xxxxxx --- Gadjovich 28
Xxxxx - xxxxxxx

Forsling 30 --- Ekblad 30
Mikkola 30 --- Jones 32
Kulikov 36 --- (Gudas? 36)
Balinskis 30

Markstrom 36
Schmid 26
​

They don't have a lot left for gudas tbh.

Yes. Too much noise

So like, the noise=reality thing i think was a Tre thing.

There is nothing indicating thats still the case

 

[zeke]

No, it still very much would not make a lick of sense in that scenario either.

Do you like any players.

 

[LeafOfFaith]

Trade Hildeby for what? Just dumping a good goalie asset for no reason. If they did bring in Bob, they’d ditch Stolarz. I believe some team would pay something decent for him.

 

[MindzEye]

I think it's the durability + brand name combo that is tempting them

If chayka we're interested, would we even know about it yet?

It's existence as a rumour makes it way less likely to be true imo

How much can Gudas really command?

He might take nothing in a no tax state he's familiar with to ring chase at 36

I think the Devils did well here, and are in a great spot to get in on Binnington/Helly

Easy for info to come out during free agency. Leafs don't have any control of that. It stinks of Ryan Reaves. I'm bracing for impact.

 

[zeke]

genuinely just hope it’s all data driven and not something like “he knows stolarz” and “our goalie coach was his backup and vouched for him” that’s all. Very skeptical.

Chayka immediately referenced data when talking about Stolarz so i don't really worry about this. If there's no good data on bob they won't be signing him, and none of these rumors are at all convincing imo.

Brace for these nuts instead

Sure I do!

Not Bobrovsky or Jenner, though.

Chayka also said they aren't going to do anything to hurt the future of the team, so some crazy long term deal for a 38 year old that counts agains tthe cap even when he retires isn't happening.

[Preston]

Maybe he figures they won't be able to spend to the cap anyway this summer unless they sign a bunch of shit contracts, so he decides on Bob at 1 year 12 million or something ridiculous!

Fuck that would be dumb but I think I prefer it to those dumbass rumors

The wingers available are half decent/there’s options I think.

EW Goalie GAR: 2023-2025
1. Hellebucyck - 123 gp, 92.9
2. Stolarz - 61 gp, 61.6
3. Daccord - 107 gp, 55.3
4. Shersterkyin - 116 gp, 46.4
5. Bobrovsky - 112 gp, 44.6
....
23. Woll - 67 gp, 26

 

[axlsalinger]

it does seem like lots of teams with capspace and no good free agents is going to lead to some incredibly shitty contracts

For me this is the best case I see to go short at a high aav for Bob. 2 years max tho. No sense in signing a bunch of shit contracts just to say you've capped out your roster. If they feel Domi is done and on ltir for the year and if they trade Mo without a big contract coming back, they have almost too much cap space to fill in a single summer.

Still a shit case for me though. He's a terrible goalie.
